Marks (foot) returned to Sunday's game against the Colts, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

Marks exited the contest after sustaining a foot injury, but he was subsequently able to return to action and reclaim his role in a Week 13 Houston backfield that also includes Nick Chubb.

Marks exited Sunday's game against the Colts after sustaining a foot injury.

Prior to that, Marks carried three times for zero yards. In his absence, Nick Chubb should lead the Texans' Week 13 backfield, with Dare Ogunbowale and British Brooks available to mix in.

James (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

The rookie fifth-rounder was inactive with a finger injury in Week 1. Since then, he's been a healthy scratch. James can't seem to crack a depth chart led by Christian McCaffrey, Brian Robinson and Isaac Guerendo.

Ford (hamstring) is active for Sunday's matchup with the 49ers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

The running back entered the day with a questionable tag after missing practice Thursday, but he appears to be good to go. His snap count will be a bigger question, as Dylan Sampson saw 19 offensive snaps to Ford's eight in Week 12 against Las Vegas. Both remain behind rookie starter Quinshon Judkins on the depth chart.

Knight (knee) is listed as active Sunday in Tampa Bay.

Knight has battled lower-body injuries at times over the last month and a half, with a knee issue limiting him at all three Week 13 sessions and leaving him questionable for Sunday's contest. Now that he's confirmed to be available, he appears poised to get a majority share of the Cardinals' backfield reps considering Trey Benson (knee) remains on injured reserve and Emari Demercado is sitting out a second straight game due to a high-ankle sprain. Over the last five outings with various RB personnel available for Arizona, Knight has tallied 221 yards from scrimmage and two rushing TDs on 62 touches. Michael Carter is Knight's greatest threat to take on snaps.

Irving (shoulder/foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Though he carried a questionable tag into Sunday, Irving will end up being cleared to play, as expected, after he logged a trio of full practices this week. The second-year back will be suiting up for the first time since Week 4, and because of the length of his absence due to a subluxation of his left shoulder as well as a sprained left foot, Irving is expected to be eased back into the mix with a lighter workload than usual. Head coach Todd Bowles hasn't provided any specifics regarding what sort of limitations Irving might be under, so the 23-year-old could carry some risk as a fantasy lineup option for Week 13. Sean Tucker and Rachaad White are still expected to have roles in the game plan, though both could see their snaps scaled back compared to previous weeks now that Irving is back in the fold.

Knight (knee), who is officially questionable to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, is expected to suit up, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Knight was limited in all three practices this week while managing the knee issue, but he looks like he'll be cleared to play in advance of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Trey Benson (knee) and Emari Demercado (ankle) have both been ruled out for the contest, so Knight should serve as Arizona's top running back. However, Michael Carter should get a fair amount of offensive snaps as well, particularly on passing downs.

Irving (shoulder/foot), who is officially questionable to play Sunday against Arizona, is expected to suit up, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

If Irving does indeed play, he'll be taking the field for the first time since Week 4. The second-year running back set himself up to suit up this weekend with a trio of full practices Wednesday through Friday, but he won't necessarily get a full workload right off the bat. Schefter notes that Tampa Bay doesn't want to "overdo it with Irving," suggesting that his snap count could be managed to some extent. That said, Irving could still earn enough touches to make a tangible impact in the contest and in fantasy box scores.

The Seahawks elevated Jones from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Jones will be available to play Sunday against the Vikings. He appeared in five regular-season games for the Saints before being cut in late October and mostly contributed on special teams.

The Seahawks signed Gaskin off the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Gaskin re-joined the Seahawks' practice squad Wednesday, and he'll now be an official member of the team's active roster after George Holani (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve. Gaskin last saw regular-season action in 2024 with the Vikings, when he appeared in five games and contributed mostly on special teams as a returner on kickoffs.
