Before he got injured in July 2023, Nyheim Hines was still wearing a Buffalo Bills uniform and was definitely set for greatness, considering that he was really playing massive football had it not been for his setback. Now that he’s fully healed and ready to rock the NFL world to prove his worth, will he eventually find a new team to play for? Out for two full seasons, Hines definitely has taken a massive time off the game in order to fully recover from his knee injury. That was a massive hurt that fans did not expect to begin with, and it is easy to say that there are a lot of potential that went off the table when he missed out on these years. It is, however, still possible for Hines to recover and find his way back into a championship team as well. While he is still yet to be inked with another team at this point in time, one can say that Hines may well find his worth with some of the teams linked to him. Training camps are already set to get underway this month – and it should open up chances for franchises to reconsider their needs and eventually make an offer for Hines, paving the way for his comeback as he seeks to get back on track. A Hines Comeback? Hines is one of the high-potential running backs who have enjoyed an otherwise great career had it not been for his injury. However, it is expected that teams such as the Cleveland Browns (again), Houston Texans, and Indianapolis Colts could arrive with offers for him in the coming weeks. After all, he’s had workouts with the said teams and is expected to land at least one deal with any of them. "I'm far from done, and the story is in my hand," Hines said of his hopes of returning. "I put myself in this position, but as athletes, we're in an unfortunate situation in a job ... that we can't control everything, but the pen is always in our hand, based on our performance. So, I'm looking forward to the opportunity to grab that pen and write whatever story I want." Selected in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft by the Colts, Hines spent the first four years of his career in Indianapolis as a rotational running back and even a return specialist before he ended up being traded in the 2022 campaign to the Buffalo Bills. Hines proved to be one of the most reliable RBs had it not been for his injuries, which says a lot about his potential for return. For now, it does seem that he will have to wait for offers to come in this month – or else his career may well be slumped for the meantime. Not Being Choosy For Hines, getting a chance to play for a team, regardless of whether it is a contender or a rebuilding team, will be a huge opportunity for him to pass up. After all, there are 53 players in a single roster, and it is definitely impossible that no one would want to bring him in. "I don't need a lot of touches. I would like some touches at times, but I just want the opportunity. Just put me in space, and throughout my career we've seen what I've done with a little bit of space," Hines said. History is on his side, however. Research says that players who excel in multiple areas of the game are more likely to get deals with teams rather than one-way players.

When one of the losing teams in the American League gets the first overall pick, you know they’re going to get the best talent possible. So when the Washington Nationals brought in Eli Willits with the first overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft, it was expected that the feedback would be great enough to raise expectations for the club moving forward. A promising selection out of Fort Cobb-Broxton High School in Oklahoma, the 17-year-old shortstop proved to be one of the best talents out in this year’s draft class, and he was one of the youngest true prospects from the 2025 class after reclassifying from the class of ‘26 as well. Initially, no one would be impressed that the Nats brought in a very young player who may not do enough or even more to help the club get back on track and regain its footing on the big stage – and rise to domination once more. Still, there’s a lot of hope from such a talented player in Willits to prove his worth, and he is going to get that chance now more than ever. Preparing for a New Dawn Before the draft came in, the Nationals actually worked out to make massive changes in their management. The team fired general manager Mike Rizzo and even manager Dave Martinez. Mike DeBartolo – who has been the club’s assistant GM for years – was elevated to interim GM for his long service since 2012. DeBartolo then brought in some big names to come up with new staff – amateur scouting Danny Haas; senior director, amateur scouting Brad Ciolek; and assistant director and national crosschecker, amateur scouting Reed Dunn. “I would say he was our top guy throughout the process. We had our eye on him throughout,” said DeBartolo. “… He was the guy we wanted all along, and we’re really excited that it worked out so well. Eli was the top guy on our board. It's one of those nice things where the scouts and the analysts see things exactly the same way and saw him as the best hitter in the Draft.” That preparation eventually led them to see the prime talent in Willits – who was definitely their best expected pick ever since the offseason began for the team, and now it seems that the Oklahoma talent is going to make waves in the game moving forward. Is Willits a Good Selection? To be fair, Eli Willits does deserve a lot of praise for his impressive game and how he can actually find his way to the top of the squad and make a strong impact to the Nationals’ redemption hopes. After all, it is not always that a rebuilding club would bring in the first pick of the draft. Based on his highlights, Willits has a good amount of speed and a strong arm to keep him at the ready. He also has massive instincts on the field, which should definitely make him a great performer to look out for now more than ever. “I want to be described as a guy that plays harder than everyone else,” Willits. “But at the end of the day, I want to be described as a great human being that is good to people off the field and good to teammates.” Should Willits turn out to be a great performer as projected by the team, then the Nationals would have a great chance to get back on their winning pattern and finally redeem their worth on the big stage.
