Warren rushed six times for 23 yards while securing one of two targets for seven yards during the Steelers' 13-10 win over the Raiders on Saturday.

Warren was on the field for just 30 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps Saturday, but he still saw some touches. He's now logged at least five touches in each of the last three weeks, and he's logged at least 30 yards from scrimmage in back-to-back games. However, he's had a relatively muted role with Najee Harris healthy.

Murray (foot) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Rams.

After sitting out Thursday's practice, Murray returned to a limited session Friday and he'll give it a go Sunday. Assuming no in-game setbacks, he should continue pace Denver's rushing attack after having carried 24 times for 130 yards and a TD and catching one pass for 12 yards in the team's Week 15 win over the Cardinals. Also in the Broncos' Week 16 backfield mix are Marlon Mack and Chase Edmonds, who was activated off IR on Saturday, but Murray's strong effort versus Arizona should earn him enough touches versus Los Angeles to maintain fantasy utility.

Gaskin (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Given that Gaskin has carried just 10 times for 26 yards through four appearances this season, his absence doesn't have much of a fantasy impact. Salvon Ahmed is on hand to provide backfield support Sunday behind Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson.

Wilson (hip) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Wilson, who was able to practice this past week in a limited fashion, is thus in line to rejoin the mix after a one-game absence. In his return to action Sunday, Wilson will look to reclaim a role in a Miami backfield that was led effectively by Raheem Mostert (17 carries for 136 yards) in the team's Week 15 loss to the Bills, a potential timeshare context that makes Wilson a speculative fantasy lineup option versus Green Bay.

Swift rushed four times for 12 yards while catching one of five targets for 13 yards during Saturday's loss to Carolina.

Swift logged his second-highest snap count of the season and still barely got the ball on a day that he stayed healthy while Jamaal Williams (leg) left the game in the third quarter. Making matters worse is that third-string tight end Shane Zylstra vultured three red-zone touchdowns, and Jared Goff fumbled the snap on one of the few remaining opportunities when Swift was on the field near the goal line. Outside of sustaining an injury of his own, this outing couldn't have gone much worse for the slumping running back and his fantasy investors. However, for those still in contention, Swift could be a high-upside fantasy option in Week 17 against a porous Bears defense if Williams is unable to play.

Williams logged three carries for 16 yards and reeled in both of his targets for 14 yards during Saturday's 17-9 loss to the Ravens.

With Caleb Huntley (Achilles) out, Williams stepped up as the Falcons' No. 3 running back and totaled five touches for just the second time this season. He made the most of his increased offensive opportunity by recording a season-high 30 yards from scrimmage while also operating as the team's primary punt and kick returner. As long as Tyler Allgeier and Cordarrelle Patterson are healthy, Williams likely remains irrelevant in standard fantasy leagues, but he's certainly a player to monitor now that he's in line for increased work during Atlanta's final two regular-season games.

Perine had four carries for three yards and three catches for 19 yards on four targets in Saturday's win over the Patriots.

Perine took a back seat to Joe Mixon after carrying a heavier workload in previous games. Is this a harbinger of the workload split in weeks to come, or just how it worked out this week? The Bengals jumped out to a big lead early, which might have dictated their usage between the two backs.

Mixon had 65 rushing yards on 16 carries along another 43 receiving yards on seven catches in Saturday's win over the Patriots.

The Bengals made it a priority to establish Mixon, who received the lion's share of backfield snaps. He had a touchdown taken away in the first half on a holding penalty against Devin Asiasi, which otherwise would have given him a really productive fantasy day. Mixon has not found the end zone since his monster five-touchdown outing in Week 9.

Harris rushed the ball 16 times for 53 yards in Saturday's 13-10 win over the Raiders. He added six receptions for 42 yards.

Harris paced the Pittsburgh backfield, accounting for 16 of the 24 rushing attempts by skill-position players. However, he was largely stymied as a rusher and was held below 50 yards on the ground for the third time in the last five games. He still managed to salvage his performance with his most productive game of the season as a receiver, regularly serving as a dumpoff option for Kenny Pickett. Overall, Harris has at least 90 total yards in four of his last seven games, and he also has five touchdowns in that span.

Jacobs tallied 15 carries for 44 yards and caught his only target for six yards during Saturday's 13-10 loss at Pittsburgh.

In a game in which Jacobs surpassed 1,500 yards on the ground for the season on his second carry, he ultimately finished with his second-lowest rushing total of the campaign (previously, he had 43 yards Week 8 in New Orleans). He nearly salvaged his day overall with a 36-yard catch-and-run late in the third quarter, but the play was called back by a Foster Moreau facemask penalty. Jacobs also didn't score a touchdown for the second consecutive contest and eighth time in 15 appearances. He may have a tough time bouncing back Week 17 against the 49ers' top-ranked run defense.
