Viewed as a durability risk throughout his NFL career, Conner somehow seems to be aging like wine, setting career highs in games played (16), carries (236), receptions (47), rushing yards (1,094), and receiving yards (414) last year. He also tallied nine touchdowns, marking the fourth consecutive year in which he's scored at least eight times. Conner even maintained a legitimate lead back workload in an era of running back by committee -- his 283 touches far exceeded that of backups Trey Benson (69), Emari Demercado (40), and Michael Carter (46), who combined for 155.
On paper, nothing has changed since the final whistle blew in Week 18. Conner is still the starter, and he's still followed on the depth chart by Benson, Demercado, and Carter, though whether all four will make the team again is unclear. If anything, the veteran feels more secure in his lead-back duties than he did entering last season when the then-rookie Benson looked like a possible threat. While all that can be viewed as positive, there are underlying concerns relating to health and age with Conner, who has still never appeared in every game in his eight NFL campaigns, turning 30 during the offseason -- a notorious milestone for running backs.
Taking everything into account, Conner heads into 2025 as a borderline top-20 fantasy back with RB2 value as his ceiling and an RB3 or flex designation on the downside in case all those miles on his body catch up to him.

Drew Petzing lands Detroit OC gig
Takes over for fired OC John Morton
By: Doug Orth | Mon Jan 19, 4:20 pm
|  | The Detroit Lions are finalizing a deal to hire former Arizona Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing as their next offensive coordinator, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. (ESPN.com - Eric Woodyard)
FFToday's Take: This is far from an inspiring hire for the Lions. Petzing was able to help James Conner enjoy the first two 1,000-yard seasons of his career, but the inability to get the most out of Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. falls on his shoulders to some degree. It also took him too long to make Trey McBride the centerpiece of the passing game. On the plus side, it is hard to ignore how much production he got out of Jacoby Brissett and Michael Wilson at the end of the year - even if most of it was in garbage time. Without question, Petzing will be set up for more success in Detroit with multiple explosive playmakers and a much better offensive line.
