Edwards (head) is taking part in practice Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Edwards left Sunday's loss to the Colts in the second half to be evaluated for a concussion and didn't end up returning during the fourth quarter or overtime. Melvin Gordon filled in as the lead back down the stretch, with the Ravens having already lost J.K. Dobbins to an Achilles tear Week 1 and with Justice Hill sitting out the contest while battling turf toe. Hill missed another practice Wednesday and thus seems less likely than Edwards to suit up this Sunday in Cleveland.

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Ahmed (groin) is "progressing," Adam Beasley of Pro Football Network reports.

The team intends to put Ahmed through some drills Wednesday, but the extent of his participation won't be known until Miami releases its first Week 4 injury report later in the day. While Ahmed sat out last week's matchup with the Broncos, De'Von Achane stepped into the spotlight as the No. 2 back and accounted for 233 yards from scrimmage and four touchdowns, a landmark performance that likely cements him as the second-string option behind starter Raheem Mostert moving forward. If Ahmed is healthy enough to play Sunday in Buffalo, he could end up seeing most of his snaps on special teams.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said he expects Hunt (ribs/groin) -- who didn't practice Wednesday -- to play Sunday against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Hunt emerged from his season debut in the Browns' Week 3 win over the Titans with a pair of injuries, but he looks like he'll be available this weekend against Baltimore, barring any setbacks. If Hunt is able to practice in any capacity Thursday and/or Friday, it would support Stefanski's assertion that the running back will be ready to go for Sunday.

Hunt won't practice Wednesday due to rib and groin injuries, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

In his season debut this past Sunday against the Titans, Hunt was on the field for 14 snaps on offense, finishing the day with five carries for 13 yards and two receptions for 22 yards. With an absence at practice on tap Wednesday, Hunt's status in now worth tracking as this weekend's game against the Ravens approaches. If he's able to suit up Sunday, Hunt would be in line to continue to work in a complementary role in Cleveland's backfield behind Jerome Ford.

Hall (knee) will be a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

The Jets continue to manage Hall's practice reps, but if the last few weeks are any indication, the running should practice fully by Friday before gaining clearance to play against the Chiefs on Sunday. In the Jets' Week 3 loss to the Patriots, Hall logged 31 snaps while rushing 12 times for 18 yards and catching one of his two targets for nine yards. Meanwhile, fellow back Dalvin Cook was on the field for 16 snaps, carrying eight times for 18 yards and catching all three of his targets for 11 yards.

The Vikings re-signed Gaskin to their practice squad Wednesday.

Minnesota released Gaskin on Tuesday, but he'll end up sticking around in the organization and will provide the Vikings with added backfield depth behind Alexander Mattison, Cam Akers and Ty Chandler. Gaskin -- who logged two special teams snaps Week 2 but didn't play in the Vikings' other two games -- will probably remain off the fantasy radar unless both Mattison and Akers simultaneously miss time.

Johnson rushed three times for six yards while catching both of his targets for six yards in Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Texans.

Johnson's three rushes and two catches were both season-highs through three weeks. Surprisingly, the veteran running back out-snapped top backup Tank Bigsby 12 to nine in the contest. Johnson was unable to produce much with his increased opportunities. Barring an injury to Travis Etienne or Bigbsy, Johnson should remain off the fantasy radar when the Jaguars host the Falcons in Week 4.

Harris rushed five times for 15 yards in Sunday's 37-3 win over the Commanders.

Harris had a quiet day in a blowout victory Sunday; however, his five rushes and 15 yards matched that of fellow running back Latavius Murray. Even so, it was Murray who scored a touchdown and nearly doubled Harris' offensive snap total, handling 17 snaps to Harris' nine. Settling in as the clear No. 3 back, the veteran would need an injury to either James Cook or Murray to become more relevant for fantasy purposes. Harris will be extremely difficult to trust for solid production when the Bills host the Dolphins in Week 4.

Freeman reverted to the Rams' practice squad after Monday's 19-16 loss at Cincinnati.

Just like in Week 2, Freeman played exclusively on special teams in the Rams' defeat Monday. The Rams will be able to elevate him one more time this season before they'd have to sign him to the active roster for him to be eligible to suit up.

Vaughn was active but didn't log any snaps from scrimmage or on special teams during the Buccaneers' 25-11 loss to the Eagles on Monday night.

Vaughn was essentially a healthy scratch for the third time in as many games to open the season, despite being in uniform for his first 2023 contest. Game script went firmly against the ground attack as the night progressed Monday night, however, with even No. 2 back Sean Tucker garnering just two carries and four snaps. Vaughn should have another opportunity to fill the No. 3 running back role in a Week 4 road matchup against the Saints, considering Chase Edmonds (knee) is on injured reserve for at least three more contests.
