Robinson was a limited practice participant Wednesday with a quadriceps injury, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

Antonio Gibson (foot) also was listed as limited on Washington's first practice report after a Week 14 bye. Both running backs appear on track to play Sunday against the Giants, with Robinson the favorite to get more carries after running 39 times for 201 yards between Weeks 12 and 13. That included a 21-96-0 rushing and 2-15-0 receiving line a couple weeks ago against the same Giants defense he'll face Sunday.

Gibson (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

Along with Gibson, fellow running back Brian Robinson (quadriceps) began the week as a limited participant, but head coach Ron Rivera hasn't provided any indication that either player is in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Giants. Robinson drew more touches than Gibson in Washington's last two games prior to the team's Week 14 bye, but Gibson still played more than 40 percent of offensive snaps in those contests and took nine carries both times.

Ingram rushed once for one yard in Monday's 27-13 loss to the Patriots.

Ingram played just nine offensive snaps in the contest, while starting running back James Conner was on the field for 71 of the Cardinals 75 offensive snaps. The rookie's lack of involvement while Conner operates as a true bell cow limits any potential he has to produce for fantasy purposes. Barring injuries, Ingram should be viewed as nothing more than a handcuff to Conner going forward. The Cardinals visit the Broncos in Week 15.

Justice Hill failed to record a single touch in Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers.

Hill played just two of the Ravens' 61 offensive snaps as the No. 4 running back behind J.K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards and Kenyan Drake. The 25-year-old saw most of his playing time on special teams, returning two kickoffs for 39 total yards. With such limited opportunities out of the backfield, Hill should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Ravens visit the Browns in Week 15.

Drake carried the ball once for one yard and secured both of his targets for one yard in Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers.

Drake operated as the Ravens' No. 3 running back in the contest behind both J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards. With just three touches on 11 offensive snaps, Drake was a complete nonfactor Sunday, while Dobbins played 26 snaps and Edwards was on the field for 21 snaps. Going forward, it's likely that Baltimore uses a similar rotation out of the backfield, which would diminish Drake's fantasy value. The veteran should not be trusted for fantasy purposes when the Ravens visit the Browns in Week 15.

McCaffrey (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

McCaffrey appeared on the 49ers' practice report as a limited participant for the second day in a row, but head coach Kyle Shanahan hasn't suggested that the running back's knee irritation will cost him game action. With a quick turnaround before Thursday's matchup with Seattle, McCaffrey is likely just getting some extra rest to keep him as fresh as possible for Week 15 after he saw 16 touches in this past Sunday's win over the Buccaneers.

Dallas (ankle) was listed as a non-participant at Tuesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Dallas seemingly isn't trending toward a return from a one-game absence to play in Thursday's game against the 49ers, as he hasn't taken any reps in either of Seattle's first two Week 15 sessions. On a positive note for the Seahawks, Kenneth Walker (ankle) --who joined Dallas on the sideline for last week's loss to the Panthers -- put in a full practice Tuesday and appears to be trending toward a return. Walker looks poised to reclaim a lead role out of the backfield against San Francisco, leaving Travis Homer as the change-of-pace option if Dallas ends up missing a second straight game.

Walker (ankle) was listed as a full participant at Tuesday's practice, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

After sitting out the Week 14 loss to the Panthers, Walker was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report. Seattle returned to the field Tuesday for a more traditional practice session, with Walker taking every rep in the session. The full practice likely puts Walker in position to reclaim his lead role out of the Seattle backfield Thursday against the 49ers, provided he avoids any setbacks during Wednesday's session. Travis Homer, who served as Seattle's primary back against Carolina, will likely move into more of a change-of-pace role Thursday in Walker's expected return.

Ward signed with the Titans' practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Ward was cut from the Jets' practice squad last Tuesday, after he had originally started the season with the Cardinals. He'll give the Titans an emergency option at running back, with Dontrell Hilliard (neck) already ruled out for Week 15 and Hassan Haskins (hip) questionable.

Barner (undisclosed) had a workout with the Giants on Tuesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Barner was waived off Tampa Bay's IR on Oct. 11. His presence at Tuesday's workout indicates he has moved on from the undisclosed injury he was dealing with. The 33-year-old suited up for three games with the Bucs and saw four carries for zero yards.
