Mattison won't return to Sunday's game against the Saints after sustaining a concussion in the third quarter, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Mattison reeled in one of two targets for six yards and carried seven times for 24 yards before suffering the head injury on a three-yard gain on what proved to be his final tote of the day. Ty Chandler -- who had moved up to No. 2 on the depth chart in the wake of Cam Akers suffering a season-ending Achilles injury last week -- will finish Sunday's contest as the Vikings' top back.

Vaughn is in line to serve as the Cowboys' punt returner in Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the Giants with KaVontae Turpin (shoulder) inactive, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

The speedy rookie was last active Week 5, and he'll now have a chance to add to the 40 rushing yards, 19 receiving yards and 10 punt return yards he's amassed in five games thus far. Vaughn could be particularly busy in his special-teams role, considering the Giants will start rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito and therefore could see plenty of drives end in punts.

McIntosh (knee) was ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's game versus the Commanders.

McIntosh was activated off injured reserve Saturday after sitting out the first nine weeks of the season with a knee sprain. However, he'll ultimately have to wait to make his NFL debut, as the team will wait before sending him into game action. The rookie running back's next opportunity to play will come Sunday, Nov. 19 against the Rams. In the meantime, DeeJay Dallas should continue to add depth behind top running backs Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet.

Dallas (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game against Washington.

Dallas was a limited participant during practice Week 10 as he tended to a shoulder injury. The 25-year-old will now be ready to play his ninth game for the Seahawks this season, though he's largely been invisible on offense during the team's previous eight contests. Expect Dallas to contribute primarily on special teams while adding depth behind running backs Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet.

Corbin (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

After not playing in Week 9, Corbin was able to log three consecutive practice sessions in a limited fashion. He played 23 snaps on special teams against the Jets in Week 8 in what has been his only appearance this season.

Conner (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

After missing the minimum four games on injured reserve and getting activated Saturday, Conner will make his first appearance since Week 5, when he initially sustained a knee injury. He's a good bet to regain a majority share of the Cardinals backfield considering Emari Demercado (toe) is sidelined and Keaontay Ingram and Tony Jones are the only competitors for snaps. In his four healthy appearances this season, Conner took 70 touches for 348 yards from scrimmage and two rushing TDs.

Moss rushed the ball once for two yards in Sunday's 10-6 win over the Patriots.

Moss had slowly seen his role in the offense decline as Jonathan Taylor ramped back up after returning from an ankle injury. Sunday appeared to complete that process, as he saw only one touch as opposed to Taylor's 23. After an excellent start to the campaign, it appears that Moss has slipped into a true backup role.

Elliott carried the ball 13 times for 54 yards and caught both his targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Colts.

The 88 scrimmage yards were a season high for Elliott, as the Patriots went with a ground-heavy game plan that also saw Rhamondre Stevenson get 23 touches. Heading into New England's bye, the veteran RB has just 331 rushing yards and two TDs through 10 games as Stevenson's understudy, but Elliott could pop for bigger numbers in Week 12 against a Giants defense he has plenty of experience punishing from his Cowboys days.

Stevenson carried the ball 20 times for 88 yards and caught three of five targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Colts.

The running back has found his stride from a fantasy perspective, topping 80 rushing yards and 100 scrimmage yards in back-to-back games, but Stevenson needed big volume to hit those numbers against DeForest Buckner and the Indy front seven as his longest gain went for only 10 yards. Stevenson will get a week to rest up during the Patriots' bye before facing a very vulnerable Giants squad in Week 12.

Taylor rushed the ball 23 times for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 10-6 win over the Patriots. He added one catch for six yards.

Taylor got his work done early, as he accounted for nine carries, 30 yards and his touchdown on the Colts' first offensive possession. Though he was held in check thereafter, Taylor saw a season-high 24 touches, while Zack Moss had just one. That bodes well for his production to close the season, though the Colts are now heading into their bye and will face tough matchups on the ground against the Buccaneers and Titans in Weeks 12 and 13, respectively.
