Around the NFL: Jets running backs
There was some discussion yesterday about LeVeon Bell and the Jets backfield. Considering the contract the Jets signed him to, it makes sense that he'd be a workhorse. And maybe that's how things will turn out. But the Jets fired the GM who gave Bell that contract, and head coach Adam Gase might have different ideas. more »

Montgomery to compete for roster spot
LE’VEON BELL is firmly in place as the starting running back for the New York Jets. And with the addition of backup BILAL POWELL, making the team could be a chore… More for one-time fantasy sleeper TY MONTGOMERY.

Around the NFL: Crowell looks solid
I don’t understand why Isaiah Crowell didn’t receive more interest as a free agent. He signed for $12 million over three years, which is less than Jerick McKinnon, Dion Lewis and Carlos Hyde. It wouldn’t surprise me if he’s better than all of those guys. more »

Around the NFL: Jets running backs
Running back committees can be a headache for fantasy teams. Bad enough when it's two backs involved, worse when it's three getting a sizable percentage of the work.
