Cowboys | Royce Freeman joins Cowboys Tue Apr 16, 08:08 PM
Free-agent RB Royce Freeman (Rams) signed a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys Tuesday, April 16, according to a source. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Freeman, 28, had 319 yards and two touchdowns on 77 carries last season for the Rams. He has played for four teams in the past four seasons, with stints in Denver, Carolina, Houston and Los Angeles since the Broncos made him a third-round pick in 2018. Dallas still is expected to select a running back in next week's draft after losing Tony Pollard. Freeman is the most experienced back on the team's roster, with Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn, Malik Davis and Snoop Conner the other halfbacks on the depth chart. |

Browns | Nick Chubb continuing to grind in his rehab Tue Apr 16, 03:49 PM
Cleveland Browns RB Nick Chubb (knee) is 'attacking his rehab every day,' according to head coach Kevin Stefanski, who was unwilling to commit to a timetable for a return for his star running back.
| Footballguys view: "I don't know that we'll go past today and this week -- at least that's the way I'm looking at it," Stefanski said in his press conference. "I can promise you, he's working very hard. Early in the morning, he's here, he's attacking his rehab. That's the best way I can put it. When he's ready, he'll be ready." When asked if Chubb has progressed to running, Stefanski declined to say. Chubb, 28, agreed to a revised contract with Cleveland last week. In 77 career games, Chubb has recorded 6,511 yards rushing with 48 touchdowns -- averaging 5.3 yards per carry. Fantasy managers shouldn't get carried away here, but Chubb is generally still available in the double-digit rounds in best ball drafts. There comes a point where the risk is worth the potential late-season reward. |

Texas RB Jonathon Brooks is having an official visit with the Kansas City Chiefs Monday, April 15.
| Footballguys view: Brooks was en route to a historic season in 2024 before he suffered a season-ending ACL injury, with 1,139 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns, plus 25 catches for 286 yards and a receiving touchdown. Running back might not be viewed as the biggest need, but the Chiefs do need to find a back with some long-term potential as a complement and maybe even eventual successor to Isiah Pacheco. |

Ravens | Baltimore likely to pick a running back Sun Apr 14, 11:57 AM
Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said there is a 'strong chance' that the team will select a running back in the 2024 NFL Draft. He believes a lot of backs will be chosen between the third and fifth rounds and said that the Ravens have looked at a lot of the players projected to be drafted during those rounds. RBs Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell are currently the top three players on Baltimore's depth chart at the position.
| Footballguys view: Behind Henry, who is nearing the end of his career, the Ravens have some interesting/explosive talent in guys like Hill and Mitchell. However, they could use more talent and could add a potential future starter in the mid-rounds of the draft. We could see them drafting someone like Braelon Allen (Wisconsin) or Marshawn Lloyd (USC) in the third round to push Hill and Mitchell for playing time. |

Broncos | Keilan Robinson visits Monday Fri Apr 12, 06:37 PM
Texas RB Keilan Robinson had an official visit with the Denver Broncos Monday, April 8, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is a late-round or priority free agent, but he's got upside as a dual-purpose back. He's got instincts as a runner, but Robinson can stand out on screen passes where his moves and speed can make defenders look silly. Robinson is bounce-happy, and he too often looks to go outside instead of sticking his foot in the ground and plugging it up the middle when things are cramped. That won't work in the pros. |

Titans | Tennessee heading for split backfield Thu Apr 11, 11:47 AM
Tennessee Titans RBs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears are expected to split the backfield workload in a '1A, 1B' situation, said offensive coordinator Nick Holz on Wednesday, April 10. 'We see it 1A, 1B, and they're both just gonna play a ton, get a lot of carries and let 'em roll,' Holz said.
| Footballguys view: Spears is a great back, and we were excited to see him as a rookie last year behind Derrick Henry. With Henry gone and Pollard added, the Titans have two backs that could be featured players. This RBBC is not great from a fantasy perspective, so we'll have to see if one emerges as the favorite during training camp and the preseason. |

NFL | Two teams interested in Blake Watson Thu Apr 11, 09:25 AM
Memphis RB Blake Watson had an official visit with the Minnesota Vikings Tuesday, April 9, and is scheduled to visit with the Denver Broncos before the 2024 NFL Draft, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: You want to get a Memphis back, and Watson is a great sleeper in this draft class. He's an explosive player with a three-down skill set, and our very own Cecil Lammey was impressed by Watson earlier this year during the week of practice for the East-West Shrine Bowl. Watson is likely a Day-3 pick with upside. |
Browns | Nick Chubb restructures Thu Apr 11, 08:53 AM
Cleveland Browns RB Nick Chubb restructured his contract Thursday, April 11, to reduce his $11.775 million base salary with a chance to earn it back in incentives.
| Footballguys view: Chubb is coming back from a knee injury that cut his 2023 season short in Week 2. This year, Chubb could regain his form and help lead the way on the ground for the Browns. The injury is a concern, and the Browns could ramp him up for the regular season by limiting him in training camp and the preseason. Stay tuned. |
