Mentioned as alternative RB1 option in early rounds for those avoiding Jeanty injury risk.

Released by Raiders today alongside Ogunbowale as part of RB depth restructuring.

Released by Raiders today as part of RB depth chart restructuring. Cutting him (along with Roman Hemby) while retaining only Jeanty, Washington, and Laube signals Raiders confidence Jeanty will not miss extended time, though comments note practice squad re-signings are possible.

Backup RB to Jeanty; Raiders retained him alongside Laube after cutting Ogunbowale and Hemby, suggesting confidence in depth. Multiple drafters explicitly cuffed Jeanty with Washington in later rounds (9th, 11th, late rounds) as injury insurance. Washington is a must-own if you draft Jeanty early.

No official diagnosis released; only Ian Rapaport's belief-based report of 'more low than high' ankle sprain. Raiders avoided detailed health disclosures; coaching staff stated intention to have him ready Week 1 but provided no concrete timeline. Seen without boot in photo but severity unknown. Raiders did not place him on IR (deadline today), suggesting optimism for sooner return than 4+ weeks, though comments note teams sometimes avoid IR for roster management reasons. High ankle sprain risk remains unconfirmed but possible. Community split: some cite roster cuts (Ogunbowale, Hemby released) and no IR placement as bullish; others warn team secrecy and injury history suggest caution. Dra...

Last year's lead back (now referred to as 'KW9' or 'KW3' in comments); finished RB22–24 in PPR with Charbonnet in timeshare. underperformed despite 1000+ rushing yards. Comments: 'They finished RB22 and 24 in PPR, below the likes of RJ Harvey, Henderson, both Warren and Gainwell'; 'KW9 finished with sub 10 points 9 times weeks 1–18'; 'had kw3 in a 10 man and he cost me weeks, absolutely brutal.' One defender argues 'For a split backfield Charbonnet with 12 TDs is pretty amazing. K9 surpassed 1000 yards' but concedes 'They were never going to be top 5 RBs. That's the reality of a timeshare.' Used as cautionary tale for why Price's value depends on avoiding similar split.

Veteran backup expected to start season as lead back while Price is eased in and Charbonnet recovers. Seahawks GM/coach Mike Macdonald praised in camp reports; 25 career carries for 3.3 YAC. Holani is placeholder/change-of-pace option, not long-term solution. One comment: 'If Holani starts as the lead back, the Seahawks GM should be fired for taking Price in the 1st.' Jokes about his name ('Holla Back Holani'; 'Holy Holanis Batman'). Not viewed as fantasy asset; mentioned mainly to explain Price's role delay.

Placed on PUP list with ACL tear from January; community estimates return week 8–14 at earliest, with debate over whether he'll be full-strength. Split opinion: some view as late-round IR stash with playoff upside (12 TDs last year in timeshare); others skeptical given ACL recovery risk and likely limited role upon return. Comments note he finished RB22–24 in PPR last year with Kenneth Walker (sub-10 points 7 times), and even if healthy, may not reclaim lead role if Kenneth Walker Price performs well. One comment: 'ACL injury recoveries have been looking better the last 10 years' but 'main issue is whether he'll be back midseason (week 8–9) or late season (week 14–15).' Stash consensus if...

Daniel Jones is the presumed starter in the Colts' quarterback trio, ahead of Anthony Richardson Sr. and Riley Leonard, after backup Easton Stick was cut on Sunday.

Anthony Richardson made the initial 53-man roster, likely as the QB2 for the Colts; the source expects he will either be traded before the season or request his release at some point during the year, as he is desperate for a fresh start and would be better suited for a team looking to develop him into a future job competitor rather than the Colts who need a reliable option to win games today.

Anthony Richardson continues to struggle with consistency and mental errors that have plagued him since entering the league; he still exhibits very poor ball placement caused by sloppy mechanics, miscommunicates on route conversions versus press coverage, and cannot afford to put the ball on the ground given his career fumble history—the fumble in New England during what amounts to a glorified tryout for NFL teams will not help him put that narrative to bed.

Anthony Richardson has shown noticeable improvement in his 2026 preseason film, particularly in making short throws look easier with a more relaxed throwing motion on speed outs and corner routes; his footwork is more calm on certain plays, and he demonstrated high-level QB play by recognizing Cover Zero, adjusting protection by bringing in a TE to block, signaling receivers to run a zero beater, and mitigating a bad snap without panicking to complete the flat route on time—plays that weren't happening in Year 1 or 2.

Anthony Gould was used as a Cover Zero beater on a flat route in the Colts' preseason game against the Lions, part of a play in which Anthony Richardson recognized the blitz, adjusted protection, and signaled Gould to convert to the flat route to attack the sideline leverage of the defense.

Despite mechanical improvements, Anthony Richardson continues to struggle with consistency and mental errors in 2026 preseason. The source highlights poor ball placement caused by sloppy mechanics, miscommunications on route conversions versus press coverage (missing what should be easy touchdowns), and fumbles—particularly noting that after putting the ball on the ground repeatedly in his career, a fumble in New England during a preseason tryout for NFL teams further damages his narrative and marketability.

Anthony Richardson has shown mechanical improvement in 2026 preseason, particularly in relaxed throwing motion on short throws and speed outs; his footwork is more calm on certain plays, and he's making easier throws look easier. Most notably, he demonstrated high-level pre-snap recognition and decision-making on a Cover Zero beater play against the Lions, recognizing the blitz, adjusting protection by bringing in a tight end, signaling receivers to convert routes, and executing the throw on time despite a bad snap.

Anthony Richardson's 2026 preseason film is described as another rollercoaster; the source notes his tenure with the Colts has produced jaw-dropping highs and embarrassing lows, with the central question being whether any team wants to commit to his development. The source expects Richardson to either be traded or request his release during the season, viewing him as better suited for a team developing him into a future starter rather than the Colts' need for a reliable immediate option.

Cameron Latu was expected to make the roster as a special teams standout, but the Eagles chose E.J. Jenkins instead, suggesting Latu may have lost out on a roster spot despite his special teams contributions.

E.J. Jenkins making the roster is a slight surprise; the source expected the Eagles to go with Cameron Latu since he's been a special teams standout, but Jenkins can also help on special teams and the team seems to like his blocking. However, he could be in jeopardy if the Eagles find tight end help via waivers or trade.

Eli Stowers' hamstring injury is apparently not serious enough to warrant injured reserve/designated for return status, though the Eagles may still move him to IR in coming days. He could conceivably be a healthy scratch early in the season if he avoids IR.

Makai Lemon is potentially not ready for a major role very early in the season, suggesting limited early-season playing time and a gradual integration into the Eagles' offense.

Michael Carter II is listed as a safety on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Grant Calcaterra is on the Eagles' injured reserve/designated for return list and will miss at least four games before being eligible to return to the active roster.

Eli Stowers is listed as the fourth tight end on the Eagles' 53-man roster. The source notes that Stowers' hamstring injury is apparently not serious enough to warrant a stint on injured reserve/designated for return, but the Eagles may still move him to IR in the coming days. Stowers could conceivably be a healthy scratch early in the season if he avoids IR.

E.J. Jenkins is listed as the third tight end on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Johnny Mundt is listed as the second tight end on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Dallas Goedert is listed as the primary tight end on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Darius Cooper is listed as a wide receiver on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Elijah Moore earned his spot on the Eagles' 53-man roster with a very productive training camp. The source notes that Jalen Hurts seems comfortable targeting Moore, and suggests his inclusion on the roster may be partially connected to Makai Lemon potentially not being ready for a major role very early in the season.

Hollywood Brown made the Eagles' 53-man roster despite not having a great camp; he did enough by the end to prevent the team from moving on. The source notes that cutting him was not ideal from a financial perspective, which also factored into the decision to keep him.

Makai Lemon is listed as the third wide receiver on the Eagles' 53-man roster. The source suggests Lemon may not be ready for a major role very early in the season, which is connected to why the Eagles included Elijah Moore on the roster.

DeVonta Smith is listed as the primary wide receiver on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Carson Steele did not make the Eagles' 53-man roster despite looking better in preseason games than in practice throughout camp. The source notes there is a decent chance he returns to the practice squad, though he may not be RB4 if Dameon Pierce also returns to the squad.

Will Shipley is listed as the third running back on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Tank Bigsby is listed as the second running back on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Saquon Barkley is listed as the primary running back on the Eagles' initial 53-man roster ahead of the 2026 season.

Cole Payton is listed as the fourth quarterback on the Eagles' 53-man roster. The source criticizes the Eagles' QB2 competition setup, noting that splitting reps between McKee and Dalton did not benefit the players, and that Payton did not receive meaningful developmental snaps in the preseason outside of the first game.

Andy Dalton is listed as the third quarterback on the Eagles' 53-man roster. The source suggests the Eagles may be hoping to trade Dalton or Tanner McKee in the coming days, though the return is unlikely to be substantial.

Tanner McKee is listed as the second quarterback on the Eagles' 53-man roster. The source notes the Eagles kept four quarterbacks, which feels 'very silly' but is 'very on brand' for how the QB2 situation has been handled; the Eagles may be hoping to trade McKee or Andy Dalton in the coming days, though the return is unlikely to be substantial.

Jalen Hurts is listed as the primary quarterback on the Eagles' initial 53-man roster ahead of the 2026 season.

Calcaterra is on injured reserve/designated for return and will miss at least four games before being eligible to return to the active roster. Eagles fans aren't going to love that Calcaterra is still on the team or that he could see playing time this season.

Carter II is retained on the initial 53-man roster; he has been learning the safety position after previously playing nickel corner, where he could still provide depth. Carter II is also likely the extra defensive back in the Eagles' dime packages.
