Tue Feb 18 201416:47Colts release journeyman RB Tashard Choice
Colts released RB Tashard Choice.
The Colts also waived DT Jake McDonough. Choice surprisingly appeared in three games last season, but took the rock just 11 times for 44 yards. The former Jerry Jones all star has averaged only 3.5 yards per carry since 2010. Heading into his age-30 season, Choice is near the end of the line. He's already lasted longer than most spare-part running backs.

Sun Nov 3 201317:31Tashard Choice handles 5 carries in Week 9
Tashard Choice rushed five times for 17 yards in the Bills' Week 9 loss to Kansas City.
Choice is primarily being used as a change-up "breather" back and pass-pro specialist. Despite C.J. Spiller's recurring ankle problems, feel free to part ways with Choice in 12- and 14-team fantasy leagues. He offers zero upside.

Bills RB Tashard Choice rushed six times for 16 yards in a Week 7 win over the Dolphins.
With C.J. Spiller (ankle) and Fred Jackson (knee) both hobbled during the game, Choice was the No. 3 back through the rotation. He's not on the re-drat fantasy radar for owners with designs on winning championships.

Fri Oct 4 201300:19Tashard Choice has five-carry night vs. CLE
Tashard Choice rushed five times for 22 yards in Buffalo's Week 5 loss to the Browns.
With Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller both playing through minor injuries, Choice doubled his season carry total. Jackson and Spiller both escaped the game without further injury, however, which should send Choice back to the pine for Week 6. He's off the fantasy radar.

Mon Sep 30 201313:38Tashard Choice to have expanded role?
ESPN's Adam Schefter stated on SportsCenter Monday to expect an "expanded role" for Tashard Choice on Thursday night against Cleveland.
Fred Jackson has a mild MCL sprain, and C.J. Spiller may not play due to an ankle injury. Choice, a journeyman who turns 29 years old in November, has rushed five times for ten yards this season. He'd be an abominable flex play.

Tashard Choice rushed three times for 11 yards in Sunday's Week 4 win over the Ravens.
Choice got his first significant work of the season as C.J. Spiller battled an ankle sprain. With the Bills playing on Thursday night in Week 5, Choice could function as Fred Jackson's backup.

Fri Mar 29 201319:43Bills re-sign RB Tashard Choice
Bills re-signed RB Tashard Choice.
Choice, 28, ran 47 times for 193 yards (4.11 YPC) and a touchdown last season, playing behind C.J. Spiller and Fred Jackson. He brings little to the table in the backfield and on special teams, and will have to fight for a roster spot.

Sun Dec 30 201217:44Tashard Choice wraps up his 2012 season
Tashard Choice rushed five times for 30 yards and a touchdown in Buffalo's Week 17 win over the Jets.
Commonly viewed as one of the more promising young runners in football during his 2008 rookie year, Choice has lost a lot of "juice" over the past four seasons. He wound up with 193 yards and the one score on 47 carries (4.11 YPC) in 2012, operating as a backup throughout the season. Choice doesn't contribute much, if anything, in the passing game, and was essentially on scholarship with the Bills under college coach Chan Gailey. Gailey is expected to be fired and Choice is an unrestricted free agent, a recipe that doesn't bode well for Choice's chances of staying in Buffalo.

Sun Dec 23 201216:34Choice held to one carry behind Spiller
Tashard Choice rushed one time for negative-three yards in the Bills' Week 16 loss to Miami.
Choice was a complete non-factor and wasn't used at all in the passing game. He'll continue to backup C.J. Spiller in in Week 17 against the Jets.

Sun Dec 16 201222:15Tashard Choice barely plays in loss
Tashard Choice rushed just one time for seven yards in the Bills' Week 15 loss to the Seahawks.
Coach Chan Gailey stayed true to his word as Choice only came on the field when C.J. Spiller asked out. Spiller ended up with 20 touches, just the second time he's reached the 20-touch mark this season.

Tue Dec 11 201208:25Gailey: Choice is not a great running back
Coach Chan Gailey said Tashard Choice is not a "great back" and therefore will not be siphoning a significant part of the backfield reps over the final three games.
There was some concern among C.J. Spiller owners that Choice would be stepping into Fred Jackson's role. That's not happening. "We're going to get the opportunity here in the next few weeks for [Spiller] to get it a lot and we won't have what I term two great backs," Gailey said. "I think Tashard is a very good back, but to me he's not in Fred's category. So there won't be a lot of sharing of duties. C.J. will have to take a big part of the load now." We can safely pencil Spiller in for 20-plus touches against the Seahawks this week.

Sun Sep 30 201217:50Tashard Choice gets 3 touches in Week 4
Bills RB Tashard Choice rushed two times for 14 yards and caught a one-yard pass in Buffalo's Week 4 loss to New England.
Choice is Buffalo's third-string tailback, and C.J. Spiller and Fred Jackson were both active for this one despite being listed as "questionable" on the Week 4 injury report. Choice can be left on fantasy waiver wires.

Sat Aug 25 201223:59Choice likely to backup Jackson, Spiller
Tashard Choice rushed seven times for 50 yards in the Bills' third preseason game.
Choice is the looking like the clear-cut favorite to back up Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller. 2011 fifth-rounder Johnny White has been dealing with an ankle injury in training camp, and is squarely on the bubble. White appeared in 12 games last year, primarily on special teams, and is not eligible for the practice squad.

Sun Jan 1 201217:21Tashard Choice vultures a TD in finale
Tashard Choice rushed one time for a 4-yard touchdown and added one catch for nine yards in the Week 17 loss to the Patriots.
Coach Chan Gailey continues to put unwarranted faith in his old college runner from Georgia Tech. Choice vultured a goal-line carry from C.J. Spiller and continued to play ahead of Johnny White. Perhaps Gailey should note that Choice was cut by two teams this year and averaged just 2.66 yards per carry on 57 totes in 2011. With Fred Jackson set to return in 2012, Choice should be looking for a new home in free agency.
