The Dallas Cowboys signed free-agent running back Royce Freeman to an undisclosed one-year deal on Tuesday, according to a source. The former third-round pick of the Denver Broncos in 2018 out of Oregon spent last year with the Los Angeles Rams and had 77 carries for 319 yards and two rushing touchdowns in 14 regular-season games (zero starts) while adding a 13-yard catch on two targets. Even with Tony Pollard departing via Tennessee in free agency this offseason, it might be tough for Freeman to make a huge impact in Dallas' backfield in 2024 alongside the likes of Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn and Malik Davis. The Cowboys could also add more competition at the position via the upcoming draft. At best, Freeman could be a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex option in fantasy in 2024.

Free-agent RB Royce Freeman (Rams) signed a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys Tuesday, April 16, according to a source. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Fantasy Spin: The Cowboys do not have a clear starter at running back, so Freeman may have the chance to compete for the job during training camp. His fantasy value will be determined by his role in the offense if he makes the team.

Los Angeles Rams RB Royce Freeman rushed four times for two yards in Week 18 against the San Francisco 49ers, while adding a 13-yard catch on his lone target.

Los Angeles Rams running back Royce Freeman has an opportunity to lead the backfield with Kyren Williams being rested. Freeman was given an increased role when Williams went on injured reserve earlier this season and impressed. The 27-year-old has carried the ball 73 times for 317 yards and two touchdowns on the ground this season. He beat out Darrell Henderson Jr. and has proven to be the best pure runner when Williams is out. Facing the San Francisco 49ers in Week 18, consider Freeman as a cheap DFS dart throw and RB4 in fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Rams RB Royce Freeman ended up with three rushes for nine yards with no targets in the pass game in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens.

Los Angeles Rams running back Royce Freeman rushed just one time for no yards and did not see a target in the Week 13 win over the Cleveland Browns. It was a disappointing development for fantasy managers who utilized him as a deep-league flex play. After his usage on Sunday, he can no longer be trusted in fantasy lineups. That said, he remains a bench stash in case Kyren Williams has to miss any time down the stretch. Darrell Henderson is on the team's practice squad, so Freeman looks to have beat him out. It's worth noting Ronnie Rivers (knee) could return from Injured Reserve soon.

Los Angeles Rams RB Royce Freeman ended up with just one rush for no gain and he was not targeted in the pass game in Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns.

From TheHuddle

Los Angeles Rams RB Royce Freeman rushed 13 times for 77 yards and a touchdown in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals, while he was not targeted in the pass game.

Fantasy Spin: As promised, Freeman still had a role despite the return of Kyren Williams from the reserve/injured list. However, as long as Williams is healthy, Freeman is more of an RB3 or flex fantasy play in leagues of 12 or more teams going forward.
