The Facts:
Bradshaw is still out of work since being released by the Giants last month. Bradshaw, who had offseason surgery on his troublesome right foot, says he elected to not work out for teams until he is healthier. But he said three teams have expressed interest in him so far: The Jets, Steelers and Packers. "There are a lot of teams out there, but there are a couple teams that are interested, so I've heard," Bradshaw said today. "Pittsburgh, the Jets and the Packers, which are teams that I feel like need a running back, that I could help. Like I said, it’s a process. I just want to take it slow."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Bradshaw, who topped 1,000 yards last season, has still not ruled out a Giants return, saying that "there's always that chance." When the team released him in a salary cap-clearing move, he said a potential return was discussed. The 27-year-old said he'd like to play somewhere close to where he's from, southwestern Virginia, and also land in a situation where he can be the lead back. "There’s a lot of teams out there that need running backs," he said. "I want to go to a team (where) I can be the No. 1 back, get multiple carries every game. I just want to be able to help and be a big part of it. ..." Bradshaw had a larger screw inserted to stabilize his twice-broken right foot in late January, requiring a 10-week recovery period. "I've decided not to work out with teams yet," Bradshaw said. "I want to be as healthy as I can be, I want to be explosive, and I want teams to see what they are able to get. Right now, I'm working on that, and I think it's coming along faster and faster. I'm walking around without the boot. ..." Stay tuned. Bradshaw could remain a solid Fantasy producer if he lands in the right situation.
