RJ Harvey Reaches Agreement on Four-Year Rookie Contract
Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey has agreed to his four-year rookie deal, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The rookie out of UCF is expected to have a meaningful role right away in Sean Payton's offense, which has been friendly for running back production in the past. The team used a second-round pick on the do-it-all weapon after many believed he was a potential Day-3 prospect, so that should give fantasy managers confidence in him despite the addition of veteran J.K. Dobbins. While Dobbins is likely to take some early-down work, he has a lengthy injury history and averaged just 3.8 yards per carry with the Los Angeles Chargers last year after Week 2. Meanwhile, Harvey is a high-level pass-catcher and should be viewed as the primary receiving back right away. Quarterback Bo Nix heavily targeted running backs in the passing game during his time at Oregon, and Payton has been known for involving his RBs in that aspect of the offense. Harvey is being drafted in the high-end RB3 range, but he has legitimate RB1 upside in PPR leagues if things break right.

Chiefs Believe Rashee Rice Will Receive Two- to Four-Game Suspension
According to Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com and his sources close to the team, the Kansas City Chiefs believe wide receiver Rashee Rice will receive anywhere between a two- and four-game suspension following his court ruling on Thursday. A Dallas judge sentenced Rice to a five-year probation period and 30 days of jail time that can be served within the five years for his involvement in a multi-vehicle crash during the 2024 NFL offseason. This situation has been in the headlines since the incident happened, and the NFL traditionally waits for the legal process to play out before issuing its disciplinary action. Rice, who has a clear path to be Patrick Mahomes' No. 1 target in the passing game, should be viewed as a risky fantasy football pick, though he could provide WR1 upside upon his return from a possible suspension. Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and Travis Kelce should be more productive in games where Rice is forced to sit out.

Jack Kiser Inks Rookie Deal With Jaguars
Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Jack Kiser has signed his rookie deal, and the organization has now finalized contracts with all nine of its selections in the 2025 NFL Draft. Kiser, a fourth-round pick, played six seasons for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish from 2019 to 2024. The 24-year-old played in 69 career games, tallying 275 tackles (166 solo), 17 tackles for loss, six sacks, four interceptions, seven pass deflections, six forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, and two defensive touchdowns. While his ceiling as an NFL player is likely limited, his experience and special-teams chops could help him get on the field early. To begin his career, he's likely to be the backup middle linebacker behind Devin Lloyd in 2025.

Mike Green Expected to Sign Rookie Deal with Ravens on Thursday
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Baltimore Ravens pass-rusher Mike Green is expected to sign his four-year rookie deal on Thursday. There has been a delay in second-round picks reaching contract agreements throughout the NFL after the Texans signed wide receiver Jayden Higgins to a fully guaranteed contract, but this deal is set to get done. Green was one of college football's premier pass-rushers during his final season at Marshall last season, collecting 17 sacks and 23 tackles for loss. Prior to the 2025 NFL Draft, news surrounding sexual assault allegations led Green to fall to the end of the second round, but he was viewed by many as a first-round talent beforehand. Now, he joins a talented outside linebacker room alongside Kyle Van Noy, Odafe Oweh, and Tavius Robinson in Baltimore. He could have a limited role in Year 1 as part of a group with plenty of depth.
