On Monday running back C.J. Anderson agreed to a one-year deal with the Lions.
Anderson spent last season bouncing from the Panthers to the Raiders to the Rams before catching on in Los Angeles. Anderson rushed for 299 yards and two touchdowns over the final two weeks of the regular season and 123 yards and two touchdowns in the Rams win over the Cowboys.
In his six year NFL career Anderson has amassed 760 rushes for 3,454 yards and 22 touchdowns along with 108 receptions for 900 yards and five touchdowns.
Anderson will be the backup to Kerryon Johnson, the 21-year-old running back who broke the Lions 70 game streak of Lions running backs rushing for less than 100 yards last season. This improves Johnson's fantasy draft stock as well.
On Tuesday running back Alfred Blue agreed to a one-year deal with the Jaguars.
Blue has spent his first five seasons in the league with the Texans. He has played key roles in the backfield and on special teams.
In his five year NFL career Blue has amassed 673 rushes for 2,407 yards and eight touchdowns along with 69 receptions for 470 yards and two touchdowns.
Blue will be the backup to Leonard Fournette who struggled in Jacksonville last season with injuries and a one game suspension but should bounce back this season with a more reliable backup and new quarterback this season.
Jacksonville also scooped another running back to shore up their backfield.
On Tuesday running back Benny Cunningham agreed to a deal with the Jaguars.
Cunningham spent the last two years with the Bears after spending his first four years with the Rams.
In his six year NFL career Cunningham has amassed 185 rushes for 784 yards and four touchdowns along with 114 receptions for 1,001 yards and three touchdowns. Cunningham has also returned 110 kickoffs for 2,895 yards.
Blue and Cunningham join Fournette, Thomas Rawls, Dave Williams, and Dimitri Flowers as the current running backs on the Jaguars roster.
