White rushed three times for nine yards in Thursday's 17-16 loss to the Rams.

White's three carries marked a season high, though he logged only three offensive snaps behind starter Josh Jacobs (finger) and Ameer Abdullah on Thursday. Jacobs' initial X-rays on his injured pinkie finger returned negative, but it could be something to continue monitoring ahead of the Raiders' upcoming tilt against New England.

Abdullah caught both of his targets for 17 yards in Thursday's 17-16 loss to the Rams.

Abdullah played less than 10 offensive snaps for the first time since Week 7, as the Raiders led for much of the contest until the pivotal final moments. Starter Josh Jacobs (finger) once again enjoyed a workhorse role with 29 touches for 114 yards and a touchdown, continuing to dominate the lion's share of opportunities out of the Raiders' backfield. Nonetheless, Abdullah figures to factor in on passing downs against the Patriots in Week 15.

Pierce (ankle) was seen limping in the locker room following Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Cowboys, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Pierce, who sustained an ankle injury in the fourth quarter, got taped up and tried to return, but head coach Lovie Smith didn't feel the rookie back could be effective, even as a decoy. The injury preceded a Dallas turnover that set the Texans up at the Cowboys' four-yard line and gave them an opportunity to take a two-score lead late in the game, but without Pierce to punch the ball across the goal line, Houston failed to score. Rex Burkhead was used as his replacement on the series and had two carries for minus-3 yards. Pierce's injury will be a major storyline to follow leading up to Week 15's home game against Kansas City. Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports that Pierce will undergo an MRI on the injury Monday.

Mostert rushed 11 times for 37 yards and caught his lone target for seven yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Chargers.

Mostert was bottled up in a matchup that looked favorable on paper. Miami's passing attack struggled early and forced the offense to abandon the run despite the Chargers' vulnerability to the rush in 2022. Fellow running back Jeff Wilson Jr. suffered a hip injury and did not return after halftime. If he is unable to suit up with the upcoming short week, then Mostert would have the backfield to himself against the Bills on Saturday.

Ekeler carried the ball 15 times for 45 yards and caught all eight of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Dolphins. He also scored a rushing touchdown.

Ekeler's longest run actually came on a Wildcat RPO as the talented running back was otherwise bottled up on the ground. The 27-year-old continues to be a menace near the goal line, with Sunday's score marking the 13th touchdown on the campaign, good for second-most in the NFL. The pass-catching maven shows no signs of slowing down and will face the Titans in Week 15.

Edwards rushed the ball 13 times for 66 yards in Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers.

Edwards entered the game with a season high of 16 carries, so he didn't lose much in terms of workload due to the return of J.K. Dobbins. Despite working fairly efficiently, Edwards was still overshadowed by Dobbins, who tallied 120 rushing yards and a touchdown. The duo figures to form a 1-2 punch out of Baltimore's backfield, with Dobbins appearing to be the top option. Even so, Edwards should be a safe bet for double-digit touches on a weekly basis.

Wilson (hip) won't return to Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Wilson was ruled out at halftime after getting hurt in the second quarter. Raheem Mostert and Salvon Ahmed are the two remaining healthy options for the Dolphins at running back. Wilson's next chance to play will come against the Bills in Week 15.

White carried the ball 13 times for 56 yards and caught all five of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 35-7 loss to the 49ers.

It was a tough day overall for the Buccaneers offense, but White still led the club in rushing yards and yards from scrimmage while seeing 18 touches to Leonard Fournette's 10. Fournette dealt with a foot injury during the week that may have limited his workload, but a backfield timeshare won't do much for either RB's fantasy upside Week 15 against a Bengals defense that just held Nick Chubb to 34 rushing yards on 14 carries.

Wilson (hip) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Wilson limped off the field in the second quarter. He compiled 26 yards on four carries and wasn't targeted prior to getting hurt. In Wilson's absence, Raheem Mostert takes over as the Dolphins' featured running back.

Mack carried the ball three times for 15 yards and caught two of three targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-28 loss to Kansas City.

The veteran back didn't see action until Mike Boone was carted off with an ankle injury in the second quarter, but Mack capitalized on his opportunity by taking a screen pass from Russell Wilson (concussion) 66 yards for a TD on the Broncos' first possession of the second half. It was Mack's first trip to the end zone since 2019, his final healthy season with the Colts, and the explosiveness he flashed on the touchdown was certainly reminiscent of that 1,000-yard campaign. Regardless of Boone's availability Week 15 against the Cardinals, Mack could push Latavius Murray for touches in the Denver backfield after this performance.
