Robinson took five carries for 21 yards and four catches for 17 yards in Monday's preseason game against the Ravens.

He and Antonio Gibson worked in what appeared close to a 50/50 split, with the latter recording four carries for 15 yards and three catches for 10 yards and a touchdown. It was essentially the same rotation as the previous week, including Robinson being the starter, only with Washington's first unit playing an entire half instead of the first 19 minutes of game time. The split won't necessarily be this even once games count, but the smart money is on Robinson and Gibson both getting a bunch of touches in a Week 1 home game against Arizona.

Clement tallied two carries for three yards and gathered in one of two targets for four yards during Saturday's 38-10 preseason loss to the Chiefs.

Clement was the fourth Cardinals running back to enter the game behind top option James Conner, Keaontay Ingram and undrafted rookie Emari Demercado, while Ty'Son Williams didn't see the field at all. Despite the potential demotion, Clement remains behind Conner and Ingram and ahead of Demercado and Williams on the team's third unofficial depth chart of the preseason, per Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic. Clement's performance in Saturday's exhibition at Minnesota ultimately may determine whether or not he survives cut downs with a spot on Arizona's roster.

Hill had two carries for 25 yards and one catch for 13 yards in Monday's preseason game at Washington, playing the opening drive before exiting for the night.

With J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards held out alongside most of Baltimore's other key players, Hill cemented himself ahead of fellow backup RBs Melvin Gordon and Keaton Mitchell. The fifth-year pro has six touches for 86 yards through two preseason games, and there's some chance his relative advantages in speed and receiving skills allow him to pressure Edwards for the No. 2 spot in an offense that's expected to throw more often than in past seasons under the guidance of new OC Todd Monken. It's possible Hill is among the players rested Saturday when the Ravens host the Bucs in their final preseason game.

Coach Mike McCarthy said Jones (groin/suspension) will be "challenged" to return this week in time for Dallas' third preseason game, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Jones is suspended for the first two games of the regular season and has missed the first two preseason contests with a groin injury suffered on Aug. 7. The veteran is competing for snaps behind Tony Pollard with Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn and Malik Davis.

Dobbins isn't in line to play in Monday's preseason contest against the Commanders, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Dobbins returned to team drills during this past Friday's practice, but it appears as though the Ravens plan to play it safe with their top back versus Washington. In that event, Dobbins' final opportunity to see preseason snaps will arrive Saturday against the Buccaneers.

The Colts granted Taylor (ankle) permission Monday to seek a trade, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Colts owner Jim Irsay previously indicated that Taylor would not be traded, but the star running back, who remains on the active/PUP list, looks like he could be on the move after all. With that in mind, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com suggests that the Colts are seeking a first-round draft pick -- or a package of picks that equates to a first-rounder -- in a potential deal for the 24-year-old.

Mitchell, who had been dealing with an adductor strain, returned to practice Monday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Though Mitchell was back in pads Monday, it's unclear if he'll suit up for Friday's preseason finale against the Chargers. In the absence of any injury setbacks, the 2021 sixth-rounder is slated to open the season in a complementary role working as star RB Christian McCaffrey's top backup.

Ibrahim (undisclosed) reverted to the Lions' injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Ibrahim went unclaimed off waivers. He's now facing a 2023 season on the sidelines unless he and the team can reach an injury settlement at some point down the road. The undrafted free agent was competing for a role providing depth at running back and was seemingly making a good impression.

Scott re-signed with the Cardinals on Monday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Scott was waived by Arizona last week, but he will now get a new opportunity with the squad. His most recent playing experience came with the Michigan Panthers in the USFL, where he accumulated 295 yards and one touchdown on 78 carries. The 23-year-old will now compete for a depth role at running back.

Hill signed a one-year contract with the 49ers on Monday.

Hill most recently played with the St. Louis Battlehawks in the XFL, where he tallied 416 yards on 88 carries to go along with 204 yards and one touchdown on 24 receptions. Prior to that, he had stints with the Falcons, Titans and Browns. The journeyman will now attempt to carve a role out for himself with the 49ers.
