Wilson rushed 24 times for 100 yards and a touchdown while catching his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Chiefs.

Wilson recorded the second 100-yard rushing performance of his career, having accomplished that feat in Week 12 of last season with the Packers. He put the game away with a 21-yard rushing touchdown with 3:47 remaining in the fourth quarter. That was his third touchdown run in the past four games, during which Wilson has racked up 294 rushing yards on 79 carries (3.7 YPC), covering for lackluster efficiency with heavy rushing volume. He could face a significant influx of competition for carries as soon as Week 8 against the Bears, as Jadarian price (chest) will be eligible to return from IR while Zach Charbonnet (knee), who was inactive Sunday, could make his season debut after being activated from the reserve/PUP list Thursday.

Walker rushed 14 times for 36 yards while catching four of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Seahawks.

Walker was held in check by his former team after recording at least 70 rushing yards in each of his first five games with the Chiefs. The MVP of Super LX with Seattle entered play Sunday leading the league with 665 rushing yards on 6.3 yards per carry in the 2026 regular season, but he mustered just 2.6 YPC in by far his quietest performance of the season against a Seahawks defense that hasn't allowed a 100-yard rushing performance since Week 8 of the 2024 regular season. Walker has a nice bounce-back opportunity in a Week 8 road clash with the Broncos, against whom he generated 191 scrimmage yards and two total touchdowns in the season opener.

Jones (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday night's contest against the Chiefs.

Jones left the game in the second half with a hamstring injury, and he will now be forced to miss the final stretch. In his absence, George Holani and Emanuel Wilson are Seattle's only healthy options in the backfield.

Corum rushed 17 times for 93 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for eight yards in the Rams' 35-21 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Corum led the Rams in rush attempts and was a close runner-up to Kyren Williams in rushing yards. Corum, like Williams, crossed the goal line as well, recording a four-yard touchdown run with 6:34 remaining in the fourth quarter. Corum's carry and yardage totals were also season highs, but given he'd logged single-digit rush attempts in each of the prior four games, he's more likely than not to continue operating in a clear complementary role behind Williams on most weeks.

Washington rushed six times for 27 yards in Sunday's 35-21 loss to the Rams.

Despite dealing with foot and back injuries throughout the practice week, Washington played against Los Angeles and handled his normal workload behind starter Ashton Jeanty. Even though Jeanty again handled more carries, Washington ended up leading the team in rushing yards on a day the Raiders ran for just 48 yards. Washington is pushing Jeanty for more rushing work, but it's not enough at this point to warrant starting the rookie running back in fantasy.

Gibbs carried the ball 29 times for 116 yards and caught five of six targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over Green Bay.

For the first time this season, Gibbs failed to get into the end zone, but he made up for it by delivering more than 100 scrimmage yards for the fifth time in six games. The fourth-year back continues to handle a massive workload, averaging 27.7 touches a game, but Gibbs has earned it by leading the NFL in scrimmage TDs with nine, and staying neck-and-neck with Bijan Robinson for the lead in scrimmage yards. Gibbs faces his toughest test yet in 2026 against a dominant Vikings defense in Week 8.

Tyus rushed three times for 23 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 43-13 loss to the Bucs.

With Carolina getting smeared on the scoreboard late in the game, the Panthers pulled their starters, and Tyus got some run on offense. He scored a 12-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. Tyus isn't even remotely on the fantasy radar while Chuba Hubbard is healthy.

Tucker rushed seven times for 52 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 43-13 win against Carolina.

Tucker was able to see an increase in touches for a third straight week, and as a result, he recorded a season-high 52 rushing yards. The running back's biggest moment of the game came in the fourth quarter when he broke loose for a 46-yard rushing touchdown. Bucky Irving (24) and Kenny Gainwell (14) still had more carries than Tucker in Week 7, and he'll remain third in the pecking order at running back ahead of the team's Week 8 matchup with Atlanta.

Knight accrued seven carries for 48 yards and reeled in three of five targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 30-16 defeat to the Broncos.

With Jeremiyah Love (ankle) sidelined for a second consecutive contest, Tyler Allgeier and Knight again were tasked with manning the Cardinals backfield. Allgeier earned 11 touches to Knight's 10 on Sunday, but the latter out-gained him by 14 yards from scrimmage (63 vs. 49). It was the second week in a row in which Knight churned out more yardage than Allgeier on fewer touches, and even if Love is able to return in Week 8 at Dallas, Knight could begin to put himself in position for regular snaps moving forward, if he hasn't already.

Perine rushed four times for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-13 win over the Ravens.

The running back wasn't targeted in the passing game, but Perine notably subbed in for Chase Brown at the goal line to punch in a one-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. It's become apparent that the coaches are trusting Perine more, and it's having an effect on Brown's production. Perine is up to 31 carries for 126 yards (4.1 YPC) and one touchdown through six games this season.
