Xazavian Valladay
RB -
Week 3 Outlook
New York Jets RB Xazavian Valladay was given 14 carries for 28 yards and caught six passes for 62 yards on Saturday against the Giants.
Fantasy Impact
Seems like the team wanted to give the 2023 UDFA a lot of action in their final preseason game to see what he can do before they make the final roster cuts. We will see on Tuesday whether or not Valladay earns a spot.
The New York Jets are signing RB Xazavian Valladay to their practice squad.
Fantasy Impact
Valladay spent training camp in Pittsburgh before being waived by the Steelers. The undrafted free agent will likely remain on the practice squad for the season considering the depth the Jets have at running back on their roster.
According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, undrafted RB Xazavian Valladay is signing a deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Fantasy Impact
Valladay was initially signed by the Houston Texans but was recently waived and cleared waivers. The Steelers are opting to bring in the Pac-12's rushing touchdown leader from 2022. Between his time at Wyoming and Arizona State, Valladay had three seasons of 1,200-plus scrimmage yards in his five-year college career. He can provide another camp/practice squad body for the Steelers who could try to compete with Anthony McFarland Jr. for RB3 snaps.
