  • Rachaad White RB | WAS

    Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Tops 100 scrimmage yards again

    White carried the ball 20 times for 84 yards and a touchdown and caught three of five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Panthers.

    The second-year back's resurgence continued with a one-yard TD plunge in the first quarter. White has five touchdowns (four rushing, one receiving) over the last five games while also racking up 491 scrimmage yards, including back-to-back contests in triple digits. He'll look to keep rolling in Week 14 against a Falcons defense he hit up for 99 combined yards in their Week 7 meeting.

  • Miles Sanders RB | DAL

    Panthers' Miles Sanders: Role shrinks under new coach

    Sanders carried the ball eight times for 23 yards and caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Deposed head coach Frank Reich had been using a timeshare in his backfield the prior two games, as Sanders saw 27 touches to Chuba Hubbard's 31, but that got tossed out the window under interim coach Chris Tabor. Instead, Hubbard got treated as a bell cow, seeing a career-high 25 totes and turning them into 104 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Sanders' first season in Carolina has been largely disappointing, but he had at least been seeing solid touch volume while healthy. That appears to no longer be the case heading into a Week 14 clash with the Saints.

  • Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR

    Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Carries offense in Week 13 loss

    Hubbard carried the ball 25 times for 104 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Facing a stout Tampa Bay front seven, Hubbard punched home a pair of one-yard TDs en route to his first 100-yard game of the season and the third of his career. The 25 totes were also a career high for Hubbard, while Miles Sanders managed only 29 scrimmage yards on nine touches, a clear sign that interim head coach Chris Tabor isn't interested in maintaining the backfield timeshare Frank Reich had been deploying. Hubbard figures to see a big workload again in Week 14 against the Saints.

  • AJ Dillon RB | CAR

    Packers' AJ Dillon: Generates 87 yards in start

    Dillon rushed 18 times for 73 yards and caught his lone target for 14 yards in Sunday's 27-19 win over Kansas City.

    Dillon got another start in place of the injured Aaron Jones (knee) after being cleared of his own knee issue earlier in the week. The bruising backup produced 87 yards from scrimmage on 19 touches after going for 81 on 17 combined touches in his spot-start against Detroit last week. Dillon would be in line for a similar workload should Jones remain sidelined for next week's matchup against the Giants on Monday Night Football.

  • De'Von Achane RB | MIA

    Dolphins' De'Von Achane: Logs 20 touches in return

    Achane rushed 17 times for 73 yards and two touchdowns and brought in three of four targets for 30 yards in the Dolphins' 45-15 win over the Commanders on Sunday.

    Making his return from a near two-game absence due to a reoccurrence of the knee injury that had led to a four-game stint on injured reserve, Achane was sparingly used early but saw his opportunity ramp up as the Dolphins expanded their lead. Achane ultimately garnered eight more touches than backfield mate Raheem Mostert, although that appeared to be the byproduct of game script. Nevertheless, Achane's electric speed is difficult to keep off the field, so he'll enjoy a solid complementary role, at minimum, in a Week 14 Monday night home matchup against the Titans on Dec. 11.

  • Isiah Pacheco RB | DET

    Chiefs' Isiah Pacheco: Tossed after strong performance

    Pacheco rushed the ball 18 times for 110 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 27-19 loss to Green Bay. He added three receptions on four targets for 13 yards.

    Per Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com, Pacheco was ejected for throwing a punch in the final moments of the game. However, he managed a strong performance prior to his exit by ripping off long runs of 26, 13 and 11 yards. The end result was his second 100-yard performance of the season, and he supplemented that with a one-yard touchdown plunge early in the third quarter. Pacheco now has six rushing scores on the campaign, half of which have come in his last two games.

  • Dalvin Cook RB | DAL

    Jets' Dalvin Cook: Loses key fumble

    Cook (shoulder) rushed nine times for 35 yards, caught one of two targets for 11 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 13-8 loss to the Falcons.

    Cook posted his highest rushing yardage total of the season, but his second-quarter fumble in Jets territory set up the only touchdown of the game on Atlanta's ensuing drive. New York's offense has struggled all season, and Cook's poor play after signing with the Jets as a free agent has contributed to the team's shortcomings.

  • Jaylen Warren RB | PIT

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Efficient on limited chances

    Warren rushed the ball nine times for 59 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Cardinals.

    Warren saw his workload diminish to its lowest mark since Week 8. He was still efficient on the ground, with his longest gain of the day going for 18 yards. More concerning was Warren's lack of involvement as a pass catcher, as he failed to record multiple receptions for just the second time this season. After briefly challenging for the lead-back role in Pittsburgh, he seems to have firmly slipped behind Najee Harris on the depth chart and will likely be reliant upon big plays for his production.

  • Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Starting RB goes down late

    Gainwell had two carries for five yards and caught five of six targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 42-19 loss to the 49ers.

    D'Andre Swift (undisclosed) left Sunday's contest late after absorbing a big hit in the loss to San Francisco, leaving Gainwell as the next man up on Philadelphia's depth chart. The latter finished with his best receiving performance of the season, but most of that production came while the former was healthy. The nature and severity of Swift's injury are currently undisclosed, but Gainwell figures to receive the biggest boost in fantasy value for Week 14 should the Eagles' starter miss next Sunday's tilt against Dallas.

  • Texans' Devin Singletary: Role slips in victory

    Singletary rushed the ball eight times for 36 yards in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Broncos. He added one reception on one target for four yards.

    Singletary entered Sunday having seen double-digit touches in six straight games. However, that streak ended as he fell behind Dameon Pierce in terms of workload Sunday, with Pierce drawing 15 touches to Singletary's nine. The Texans held a comfortable lead for much of this matchup, which led to a game script that fell more into Pierce's style. In games that Houston falls behind, Singletary may see his role increase again, but his volume appears to be unreliable for the time being.
