Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Unavailable for Week 14
Hunter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with Arizona, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Hunter will once again be a healthy scratch in Week 14, marking the seventh consecutive contest in which that is the case. Kyren Williams, Blake Corum and Ronnie Rivers will handle the backfield duties against the Cardinals.

Bhayshul Tuten RB | JAC
Jaguars' Bhayshul Tuten: Back in Sunday's game
Tuten has been cleared to return to Sunday's game against the Colts, Hays Carlyon of 1010 AM WJXL Jacksonville reports.
Per Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville, Tuten was evaluated for a concussion but subsequently cleared to return to the contest. He'll thus rejoin a Week 14 Jacksonville backfield that also includes Travis Etienne and LeQuint Allen.

Tuten is being evaluated for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Colts, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.

Dylan Sampson RB | CLE
Browns' Dylan Sampson: Ready to face Titans
Sampson (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Sampson suffered a calf injury in Cleveland's Week 13 loss, and he didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday. However, he managed to retake the field Friday and will now suit up to face the Titans. Sampson should be in line for a handful of carries and a couple of targets while working behind Quinshon Judkins.

Nate Carter RB | ATL
Falcons' Nathan Carter: Healthy scratch Week 14
Carter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Carter will be a healthy inactive for the fourth time in the Hawks' last six games, and Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier will operate as the Falcons' two active running backs for Sunday's road tilt. Carter's next opportunity to play is Thursday against the Buccaneers, though he's unlikely to play in that game unless Robinson or Allgeier were sidelined or if the Falcons require additional help on special teams.

Velus Jones Jr. WR | SEA
Seahawks' Velus Jones: Elevated for Week 14
The Seahawks elevated Jones from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Jones will be elevated for the second consecutive week after playing 17 special teams snaps for the Seahawks in their Week 13 win over the Vikings. The running back was not a participant in the Seahawks offense, and with Kenneth Walker, Zach Charbonnet, and Cam Akers all healthy, that is unlikely to change this Sunday. Jones can be elevated one more time before he would have to be officially signed to the active roster.

Cody Schrader RB | DEN
Cody Schrader: Waived by Jacksonville
The Jaguars waived Schrader on Saturday.
Schrader has been a healthy scratch since the Jaguars re-signed him to the active roster Oct. 8, so, unsurprisingly, the running back is being waived. The team will continue to roll out Travis Etienne as the starter, with Bhayshul Tuten and LeQuint Allen present in a rotational capacity. Schrader will likely sign with the Jaguars' practice squad if he clears waivers.
