Zavier Scott News
Tuesday, December 30, 9:09 PM
Across 15 games this season, Minnesota Vikings running back Zavier Scott has recorded just 195 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 42 touches. The 26-year-old did not record a single touch in Minnesota's Week 17 win over the Detroit Lions. However, the Vikings are dealing with injuries to both of their top two running backs, Jordan Mason (ankle) and Aaron Jones Sr. (leg). While both Minnesota veterans have a chance to play in the team's Week 18 finale against the Green Bay Packers, the team is out of playoff contention and does not have much reason to push players onto the field. Scott has shown he can produce as a receiving back when given the chance, recording six catches for 43 yards and a touchdown on eight targets with Jones Sr. inactive in Week 4. In deep fantasy leagues, Scott may be worth targeting on the waiver wire heading into Week 18.

LeQuint Allen Jr. News
Wednesday, April 1, 8:11 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars running back LeQuint Allen Jr. is trending up ahead of the 2026 season. Allen remains No. 3 on the depth chart after the Jaguars watched Travis Etienne Jr. depart in free agency, but replaced him with Chris Rodriguez Jr. There's a clear path to meaningful playing time for Allen, who may get on the field even more as Jacksonville's passing-down specialist. Allen was spectacular in pass protection last year, blocking some of the league's most talented pass rushers when he got on the field. He only touched the ball 33 times as a rookie, but he still got on the field for at least 25% of the snaps in more than one-third of the Jaguars' games. It's too early to project his workload for 2026, but we do expect his snap count to increase by a noticeable amount. Depending on just how involved Allen gets, he could even sneak onto the fantasy radar as a low-end RB3/flex in deeper PPR leagues.
