Ingram (neck) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Rams, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Ingram upgraded to full practice participation Friday, and his impending return creates questions about the backfield pecking order for Arizona. Undrafted rookie Emari Demercado played every single snap in the second half of last week's loss to Cincinnati after James Conner (IR - knee) was knocked out, but the Cardinals then listed Ingram atop their Week 6 depth chart, with coach Jonathan Gannon offering nothing more than coachspeak that's of little use to fantasy managers. Odds are both Demercado and Ingram get touches this weekend, but the split will be tough to predict ahead of time.

Gibbs (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Tampa Bay, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Gibbs hurt his hamstring at the end of last Friday's practice and now will miss a second straight game. His failure to practice this week suggests he's also at risk of missing Week 7 in Baltimore, though the Lions haven't commented on expectations beyond this Sunday. They're left with Craig Reynolds behind lead back David Montgomery, while Zonovan Knight (shoulder) is expected to miss the rest of the season.

Brightwell (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Buffalo, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

After sitting out practice Thursday, Brightwell was a limited participant Friday, giving himself at least a chance to play in Week 6. With Saquon Barkley (ankle) also listed as questionable, the Giants go into the weekend with Matt Breida and Eric Gray as their only certainties at running back.

Pollard (shoulder) was a full practice participant Friday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

The quick return to full participation after one limited session suggests Pollard should be ready for his usual workload Monday night against the Chargers. Only two teams have allowed more fantasy points per game to RBs, and Pollard has dominated the Dallas backfield work in competitive situations this year.

Wilson (ribs/finger) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Miami was reportedly undecided on Wilson's status earlier Friday, but after he put in a third consecutive limited practice, the running back is now considered unlikely to be activated from injured reserve for his season debut this weekend. The Dolphins opened Wilson's 21-day evaluation window Wednesday, so even though he's poised to remain out Sunday, the team will still have two more weeks to add him back to the 53-man roster. With De'Von Achane (knee) joining Wilson on IR earlier this week, Miami will be left with Chris Brooks and Salvon Ahmed as its depth options behind lead back Raheem Mostert.

Herbert (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Minnesota and may be placed on injured reserve this weekend, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

The Bears haven't made a decision on Herbert's status beyond this week, but it sounds like a trip to injured reserve could be the corresponding move when CB Kyler Gordon (hand) is activated Saturday. Placement on IR would rule Herbert out for the next four games -- something that might happen even if he stays on the active roster given that he's dealing with a high ankle sprain. Roschon Johnson (concussion) and Travis Homer (hamstring) also are out Week 6, leaving D'Onta Foreman and Darrynton Evans to take RB snaps for Chicago.

Evans is one of two healthy running backs for Chicago, along with D'Onta Foreman, heading into Sunday's game against the Vikings, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

The Bears will also have fullback Khari Blasingame available but will play without Khalil Herbert (ankle), Roschon Johnson (concussion) and Travis Homer (hamstring). Evans, who signed with the team this past Sunday, will likely cede the majority of carries to Foreman but could have a role in Chicago's depleted backfield.

Foreman is set to lead Chicago's backfield Sunday against the Vikings, as fellow running backs Khalil Herbert (ankle), Roschon Johnson (concussion) and Travis Homer (hamstring) have all been ruled out.

Foreman spent the past four games as a healthy inactive, but he's set to jump into the lead role against the Vikings, with Darrynton Evans on hand to serve as a change-of-pace option behind him. Last season with the Panthers, Foreman averaged 119.7 rushing yards in the six games in which he logged at least 15 rushing attempts.

Homer (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Homer failed to practice at all during the week and will be joined on the sidelines Sunday by Khalil Herbert (ankle) and Roschon Johnson (concussion) while D'Onta Foreman and Darrynton Evans lead Chicago's banged-up backfield. If Homer recovers in time to face the Raiders in Week 7, he could take on a larger role if Herbert and Johnson are still sidelined.

Johnson (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

The Bears lost all three of their active RBs to injuries in last Thursday's 40-20 win over Washington, and all three will now be out for at least one week. With Khalil Herbert (high ankle) and Travis Homer (hamstring) sidelined, the Bears are down to D'Onta Foreman and Darrynton Evans as backfield options for an NFC West matchup this Sunday. None of the injured RBs practiced this week.
