Outlook Raheem Mostert

Aging Veteran Faces Steep Climb to Fantasy Relevance

At 34 years old, Raheem Mostert is entering the twilight of his career and coming off a highly limited 2025 campaign. He logged just 23 rush attempts for Las Vegas last season, representing a massive drop-off from his highly productive 2023 peak with the Dolphins where he handled 209 carries.

Our tracking data shows that fantasy managers have almost entirely moved on from the veteran, as his rostered percentage hovers near five percent while his start percentage sits at a minimal two percent. Without a clear, guaranteed path to weekly touches, his fantasy utility has plummeted to near zero.

Unless injuries completely open up opportunities in his backfield, we project him to occupy a highly restricted depth role this season. While he can be completely ignored in shallow formats, Mostert remains a very deep-league stash option for managers searching for emergency handcuff depth.
