Active as a receiver Haynes logged 10 carries for 39 yards and one touchdown and reeled in all six targets for 29 yards during Saturday's 42-28 loss against Pittsburgh.

Impact Georgia Tech didn't get much of a shot to run the football as it quickly fell into a 28-0 hole against Pitt. Haynes was still the leading rusher with 10 carries, but his six catches were a season high. Ultimately, Haynes' fifth touchdown of the season made it a solid day for him fantasy-wise, and up next is a huge tilt with Georgia.

Completely bottled up Haynes recorded six rushes for 14 yards and caught 3 of 4 targets for 22 yards during Saturday's 48-36 defeat versus North Carolina State.

Impact Haynes was completely bottled up for a third straight week in a troubling development. Georgia Tech leaned on quarterback Haynes King against NC State, who rushed for over 100 yards, but Malachi Hosley now looks like the Yellow Jackets' top tailback with three games left in the season.

NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Bottled up again Haynes notched seven carries for 23 yards and reeled in all two targets for 28 yards during Saturday's 41-16 win versus Syracuse.

Impact Once again, Haynes posted a dud week while his backfield mate Malachi Hosley outshined him. Haynes could be falling out of favor in the Yellow Jackets' backfield, and while this run-heavy attack should in theory be enough to sustain two backs, Haynes' production simply hasn't been consistent enough to trust him from a fantasy standpoint.

Nothing doing vs. Duke Haynes recorded eight rushes for 29 yards and caught 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 27-18 victory against Duke.

Impact Haynes couldn't find much running room against the Blue Devils whatsoever, and his eight carries were a season-low. Meanwhile, his quarterback Haynes King ran wild to the tune of 120 yards on 14 carries. Georgia Tech's running game has thrived regardless of who gets the glory, but Haynes now has just 119 yards over the last three games.

Plays second fiddle in win Haynes totaled 14 rushes for 69 yards and hauled in their only target for 12 yards during Saturday's 35-20 victory against Virginia Tech.

Impact Haynes' 81 total yards wasn't exactly a letdown, but he was outshined by backfield mate Malachi Hosley in the win over Virginia Tech. Still, he continues to take more carries than Hosley on a weekly basis and remains the clear top dog in the Yellowjackets' backfield. The committee-style backfield isn't doing fantasy managers any favors, but this remains a potent rushing attack that is capable of producing multiple productive players.

Bottled up by Demon Deacons Haynes posted 10 rushes for 21 yards and reeled in 5 of 6 targets for 14 yards during Saturday's 30-29 overtime victory over Wake Forest.

Impact Though he caught a season-high five passes, Haynes was completely shut down on the ground against the Demon Deacons. In fact, the only Yellow Jacket who found any sort of success running the ball was the quarterback, Haynes King. After his worst performance all season, Haynes will look to bounce back in a favorable matchup against Virginia Tech in Week 7.

Season-high rushing output in win Haynes notched 12 carries for 107 yards and gathered in all four targets for 39 yards during Saturday's 45-24 win against Temple.

Impact Haynes hadn't hit the 100-yard mark on the ground through Georgia Tech's first three wins, but he remedied that against Temple. He continued to be more involved in the passing game as well, as he now has eight catches across the past two games. Haynes should continue to be a viable fantasy option in a dangerous Yellow Jackets' ground game as Georgia Tech resumes ACC play in Week 5.

Scores in otherwise quiet outing Haynes tallied 12 carries for 26 yards and one touchdown and reeled in 4 of 6 targets for 36 yards during Saturday's 24-21 victory over Clemson.

Impact Haynes found the end zone for his third touchdown of the season, but was otherwise completely bottled up on the ground by Clemson's stout front. He did reel in four catches for a season-high 36 receiving yards, but the tailback's performance was largely forgettable outside of the touchdown. He'll look to get back on track vs. Temple on Saturday in what should be a largely favorable matchup.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

100 all-purpose yards in win Haynes compiled nine rushes for 92 yards and two touchdowns and gathered in their only target for eight yards during Saturday's 59-12 victory versus Gardner-Webb.

Impact Haynes put together a great performance in the blowout win. It was good to see him near 100 yards on the ground after he was limited to 65 yards on 16 carries in the opener versus Colorado. The tailback's next matchup is against a tough Clemson defensive front in Week 3.

Modest day in opener Haynes logged 16 carries for 65 yards and hauled in 1 of 2 targets for 27 yards during Friday's 27-20 victory against Colorado.

Impact Haynes was limited to 4.1 yards-per-carry against Colorado, but the halfback still amassed nearly 100 all-purpose yards. Georgia Tech's backfield is one of the most dangerous in the country in terms of running the football, as quarterback Haynes King tacked up 156 yards rushing in Week 1. As long as that remains the case, Haynes will be a great option on the ground for a Yellow Jackets team that figures to heavily rely on the running game all season.

Goes off in bowl game Haynes notched 17 rushes for 136 yards and hauled in 5 of 8 targets for 32 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 35-27 defeat versus Vanderbilt.

Impact Haynes hadn't crossed the century mark on the ground since Week 7 but found his way back to triple digits Friday. while he was held out of the end zone on the ground, he turned in his best receiving game of the season and found pay dirt as a receiver, his third of the season. Haynes is eligible to return for another college campaign in 2025 should he choose to do so, and he'd be the clear workhorse again if he does.
