Matt Breida Has Underwhelming Opener rotoballer.com Sat 8/14/21 6:19 PM

Buffalo Bills running back Matt Breida had an increased role during the preseason opener versus the Detroit Lions. Second-year back Zack Moss (hamstring) was sidelined, which gave Breida an opportunity to impress the team. He rushed 10 times for 27 yards and caught two passes for 15 yards through the air. The fifth-year back is on a veteran minimum deal and playing for a role behind Devin Singletary and Moss in Buffalo. The injury to Moss certainly opens a door for Breida to crack the ...

Matt Breida To Be A Factor In Buffalo? rotoballer.com Sun 8/1/21 3:03 PM

Buffalo Bills running back Matt Breida is making noise early in training camp. Per Sal Capaccio, Brieda "has really shown off his speed and quickness through the first four days... he could wind up being more of a factor in the offense than many anticipated when they signed him as a free agent in March." The Bills didn't get much production out of Zach Moss or Devin Singletary in 2020, so Breida certainly could make his mark. Breida has plenty of speed and he's primarily been a change of pace ...

Matt Breida Could Get Cut This Summer rotoballer.com Wed 7/7/21 8:02 PM

Buffalo Bills running back Matt Breida gives the team a home run-hitting element in the backfield, but his place on the final 53-man roster this summer isn't secure heading into training camp. Breida must beat out Antonio Williams and Christian Wade for the final spot in the running backs room. Devin Singletary and Zack Moss are locks, and the Bills might not carry more than three, considering how often they pass the ball. Breida will give himself a much better shot if he can make himself ...

Matt Breida Gets One-Year Deal From Bills rotoballer.com Thu 3/25/21 4:14 PM

The Buffalo Bills are expected to sign former Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida on Thursday, according to a source. Breida will stay in the AFC East on an undisclosed one-year deal. After three seasons to begin his career with the San Francisco 49ers, the 26-year-old played for Miami last season, carrying the ball a career-low 59 times for 254 yards and no touchdowns while adding nine receptions for 96 yards. Both he and Jordan Howard were big free-agent disappointments for Miami's ...

Matt Breida Expected To Have Reduced Role rotoballer.com Fri 12/25/20 7:54 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida saw a season-high 12 carries in the win over the New England Patriots last week. However, he'll likely see a reduced role going forward with Myles Gaskin expected to return for Week 16. Breida will see little to no action on the field with both Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed healthy. He can be pretty much avoided in all fantasy formats going forward.

Matt Breida Has Nice Outing In Week 15 rotoballer.com Sun 12/20/20 10:44 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida was finally able to do some damage on the ground for the first time this season. Breida rushed 12 times for 86 yards in the Week 15 win over the New England Patriots. It was a season-high in carries and yards for Breida who is having a horrible 2020 campaign. It's unlikely that things get better for Breida with Myles Gaskin expected to suit up next week. This is probably going to be Breida's best performance of the season.

Matt Breida Activated From COVID-19 List rotoballer.com Thu 12/17/20 1:23 AM

The Miami Dolphins activated running back Matt Breida from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Breida hasn't played since Week 12 and has just 47 carries for 168 yards (career-low 3.6 yards per carry) and no touchdowns in his nine games played in his first year in Miami. Even if Myles Gaskin and rookie Salvon Ahmed aren't cleared from the COVID-19 list, it's hard to imagine Breida seeing a true workhorse role in his first game back. Plus, the Patriots Defense is their strength and won't ...

Dolphins Put Matt Breida On COVID-19 List rotoballer.com Fri 12/4/20 3:36 PM

The Miami Dolphins placed running back Matt Breida on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. It's unclear if Breida tested positive for the virus or was just deemed a high-risk close contact to another individual who did. Either way, he'll be unavailable for Week 13's contest against the Bengals. It likely didn't matter for fantasy purposes, as one of Salvon Ahmed or Myles Gaskin, and potentially both, should return for this Sunday's game against Cincinnati. Even with the Dolphins cutting ...

Matt Breida Should Remain On Benches rotoballer.com Fri 12/4/20 11:56 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida has looked awful this season and it's unlikely going to get better for him going forward. Last week, Breida saw eight carries for 36 yards in the win over the New York Jets. He has basically been a non-factor in fantasy leagues all season long. However, there is a small chance he becomes the lead back against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 13. Somehow, DeAndre Washington (hamstring), Salvon Ahmed (shoulder), and Myles Gaskin (knee) are all banged up ...

Matt Breida Disappoints Again rotoballer.com Sun 11/29/20 9:04 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida was the starter for the Week 12 matchup versus the New York Jets. The backfield is banged up, but Breida failed to capitalize on the extra snaps. He rushed eight times for 36 yards and hauled in two receptions for 17 yards through the air. DeAndre Washington looked much better on the ground, so he'd likely get a majority of the reps, assuming the Dolphins don't get healthy by next week. Breida can continue to be ignored in fantasy formats.
