Broncos | Jonah Coleman could get 'plenty of work' Fri Aug 28, 01:08 PM
Denver Broncos RB Jonah Coleman could see 'plenty of work' in 2026, according to ESPN's Jeff Legwold.
| Footballguys view: Coleman should be a priority running back bench pick. He has JK Dobbins injury upside, and he has done enough to get into the running back rotation from day one. His emergence is making Dobbins and Harvey easier to skip going ahead of the rookie. |
Giants | Najee Harris expected to play in preseason finale Fri Aug 28, 01:04 PM
New York Giants RB Najee Harris is expected to play in the team's final preseason game on Friday, Aug. 28. He has not played since tearing his Achilles in Week 3 of the 2025 season.
| Footballguys view: Harris needs to prove that he is game shape, so this isn't necessarily a sign that he is on the margins of the depth chart. On the other hand, if he looks good, Harris could force a committee with Cam Skattebo right away, given his experience and durability. |

Giants | Malachi Fields like the WR2 Fri Aug 28, 11:28 AM
New York Giants WR Malachi Fields is likely to be the team's No. 2 receiver. The team traded up to get him in the third round because they were infatuated with his size, physicality and ability to make contested catches. He has shown all of that in camp.
| Footballguys view: Fields is at least on our waiver wire watch lists, if not a deep league late round pick. He wins when the ball is in the air and could be a top red zone target for Jaxson Dart. Fields is still going to be in the shadow of Malik Nabers and maybe Isaiah Likely, so he's not a priority late round target. |
Titans | Carnell Tate impresses Fri Aug 28, 11:25 AM
Tennessee Titans WR Carnell Tate has impressed with his large catch radius and consistent hands-catching ability. The Titans have started to move Tate across the formation rather than always having him on the ball.
| Footballguys view: Tate is probably going to have some highlight reel plays that make a splash in the box score, but the Titans offense is going to be inconsistent to open the season considering its offensive line woes and new system, along with Cam Ward's preseason struggles. Tate is going in the 6th/7th round close to similar weekly boom/bust propositions like Brian Thomas Jr. and Marvin Harrison Jr.. |
Raiders | Fernando Mendoza impresses teammates Fri Aug 28, 10:54 AM
Las Vegas Raiders QB Fernando Mendoza has impressed teammates with improved confidence. He hasn't been afraid of targeting tight windows, has a firmer grasp of the system, which resulted in better command of the offense. 'That's hard to do as a young guy,' C Tyler Linderbaum said. 'You're dealing with a lot of new things, a whole new offense. So seeing the growth in his command and operation, it's a good starting point.'

Packers | Josh Jacobs not being released Fri Aug 28, 12:08 AM
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs will not be released by the team following two misdemeanor charges being filed against him on Thursday, Aug. 27, per ESPN's Rob Demovsky.
| Footballguys view: This is at least the absence of the worst news for Jacobs fantasy stock, but it's not reassuring. He is practicing after missing time this summer because of a groin injury. MarShawn Lloyd has stayed healthy and looked like more than a backup and the offensive line is a work in progress, so Jacobs is still a questionable pick in the fourth round. |

New York Giants WR Calvin Austin (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: Bad news for the Giants here. Austin had been an impressive player this offseason, and many were speculating he would play a sizable role in the Giants' offense as the slot receiver. Now, the Giants could turn to Malachai Fields as an option behind Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton, and Darnell Mooney. |
Saints | Devin Neal could be IR candidate Thu Aug 27, 04:49 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal (hamstring) could start the regular season on the Reserve/Injured list after recently suffering a hamstring injury, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Katherine Terrell.
| Footballguys view: Neal is a talented reserve back, but injuries have prevented him from playing up to his potential. He needs to get healthy, stay healthy, and show why the team has him as a developmental back behind guys like Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara. |

49ers | Isaac Guerendo may stay on PUP list Thu Aug 27, 04:34 PM
San Francisco 49ers RB Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) is a candidate to start the regular season on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Nick Wagoner.
| Footballguys view: It makes sense for a player who has missed all of training camp with a pectoral injury. The PUP list would require Guerendo to miss the first four weeks of the regular season. After that, the team could open up a practice window for him to see if he can be activated or put on season-ending Injured Reserve. |
Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet could avoid PUP list Thu Aug 27, 04:30 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) may be able to avoid the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list if the team believes he will be able to play in a game before Week 5, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Brady Henderson.
| Footballguys view: Any player on the PUP list must miss the first four weeks of the regular season. It sounds like Charbonnet might be ready to get on the field before then. Now, whether or not he's 100 percent healthy at the time is a different story. The Seahawks open the season with Jadarian Price and George Holani as their top backs. |

Link to story Packers | Josh Jacobs formally charged Thu Aug 27, 03:35 PM
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs has been formally charged with two misdemeanors related to his May arrest. The NFL has been monitoring all developments in the matter, which remains under review, according to Tom Pelissero.
| Footballguys view: The NFL could end up suspending Jacobs once their investigation is concluded. That means Fantasy GMs need to consider Marshawn Lloyd late in drafts. Jacobs has a current ADP of RB16 (5.01) in 12-team PPR leagues. Lloyd is a talented back who has flashed during training camp and the preseason. If he stays healthy (a problem so far in Lloyd's pro career), he could be the lead back for the Packers if/when Jacobs has to miss time. |
