Xazavian Valladay

26-Year-Old Running BackRB
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Valladay spent most of last season on the Jets' practice squad and will be fighting an uphill battle to make the team out of training camp with a plethora of young running backs ahead of him on the depth chart. The Jets have three recent draft picks vying for spots behind third-year starter Breece Hall in 2023 fifth-round draft pick Israel Abanikanda, 2024 fourth-rounder Braelon Allen and 2024 fifth-rounder Isaiah Davis. Valladay, who will be 26 when the 2024 NFL season kicks off, has yet to record a regular-season carry or catch. Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
Valladay was cut from the Jets' practice squad mid-September, but he caught on with the Saints in early November and remained on the practice squad for the rest of the 2024 regular season. Valladay last saw NFL regular-season action in 2023 with the Jets, during which he played in Week 18 against the Patriots and logged 12 snaps on special teams. The 26-year-old running back out of Arizona State is set to spend time with the Saints during OTAs and minicamp and will attempt to earn a roster spot during training camp next summer.
