Latest news
The Falcons elevated Herbert from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.
Herbert will serve as the Falcons' RB2 behind Bijan Robinson for a second consecutive week due to the absence of Brian Robinson (hamstring). Herbert turned three touches into 28 yards against the 49ers in Week 7 and figures to see a similar workload Sunday against the Buccaneers, whose defense is second-best in the NFL in fantasy points allowed per game to opposing running backs.

Herbert reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Herbert was elevated to the active roster for Sunday's 29-20 win against the 49ers, when he served as Bijan Robinson's backup due to the absence of Brian Robinson (hamstring). Herbert was on the field for only 11 of the Falcons' 68 snaps (16.2 percent), although he nearly nearly found the end zone early in the second half on a 19-yard catch but was ruled out of bounds just short of the goal line. The sixth-year running back added two carries for nine yards and turned two kickoff returns into 65 yards, and he could be elevated for Week 8 against the Buccaneers on Nov. 1 depending on the health of the Falcons' backfield.

The Falcons elevated Herbert from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.
Herbert is set to suit up for his 2026 regular-season debut as the No. 2 running back behind Bijan Robinson for Sunday's game against the 49ers. The 28-year-old will take relief snaps in place of Brian Robinson (hamstring), who has been ruled out due to injury.

After Brian Robinson (hamstring) was ruled out, Falcons coach Kevin Stefanski said Friday that Herbert will be Bijan Robinson's backup against the 49ers on Sunday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Herbert has been on the practice squad for the past month but will be elevated for RB2 duties against San Francisco. He carried the ball 16 times for 52 yards (3.3 YPC) across seven appearances with the Jets last season but hasn't been a productive rusher since 2023 with the Bears.

The Falcons signed Herbert to the practice squad Wednesday, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Herbert entered the league in 2021 and has suited up for the Bears, Bengals and Jets. In 63 regular-season games, the 28-year-old amassed 1,957 yards and nine touchdowns off 416 carries, adding 54 catches for 316 yards and two touchdowns. While the Falcons have Bijan Robinson and Brian Robinson in the backfield, Herbert could be elevated if one of those players gets hurt down the line.

The 49ers signed Herbert on Thursday.
Just three days after cutting Herbert, the Niners are bringing back the veteran running back after the team placed Patrick Taylor (undisclosed) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Herbert carried the ball 16 times for 52 scoreless yards across seven regular-season appearances with the Jets last season. He faces an uphill battle to crack the 49ers' roster.

Verdexed board · 2026
| Format | Our rank | Market ADP | Value | Proj pts | Floor–Ceiling |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PPR | RB137 (#502) | undrafted | -70 | 85.6 | -7.8–142.8 |
| Half PPR | RB135 (#474) | undrafted | -77 | 76.9 | -16.5–134.1 |
| Standard | RB131 (#437) | undrafted | -74 | 68.1 | -25.3–125.3 |
“Value” is market slot minus our slot: positive means the market lets you draft him later than our blend ranks him. Ranks blend our projection model with ADP at backtested weights, the receipts are on methodology.
Trade value: what to ask for Khalil
Our board has Khalil Herbert at RB137, #502 overall in PPR, and the market leaves him undrafted. The market prices him about 70 picks higher than we do, so in a trade ask for more than his slot suggests: a fair return is a player the market ranks near #502, and you are giving up someone our model values as a #502. He projects to 85.6 points (floor -7.8, ceiling 142.8).
RBs in that range on our board right now: Chris Collier (#490, LV), Tyler Goodson (#497, DAL), Raheem Blackshear (#501, DET), Sione Vaki (#509, DET), Dameon Pierce (#510, PHI), Hassan Haskins (#513, NE).
