  • Damien Harris RB | BUF

    Patriots' Damien Harris: Limited at practice

    Harris (thigh) was listed as a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

    Harris, who last suited up Week 12, appears to be trending toward being listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bengals. Fellow running back Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) -- who was also listed as a limited participant Wednesday -- may also carry a questionable designation into the weekend, but Stevenson was able to play through the injury in Week 15, carrying 19 times for 172 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' loss to the Raiders. If both backs end up active versus Cincinnati, Harris likely wouldn't represent a reliable lineup option with Stevenson having a hold on the No. 1 role.

  • Najee Harris RB | NYG

    Steelers' Najee Harris: Held out of practice

    Harris (hip) didn't practice Wednesday, Chris Halicke of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

    It's a downgrade from Tuesday, when Harris was listed as a limited participant, though the Steelers didn't actually hold a practice just two days after Sunday's win over the Panthers. The Steelers face the Raiders this Saturday, with Jaylen Warren ready to pick up slack in the backfield if things go south with Harris' health. Harris miss practice last Wednesday with the same hip injury, then returned to full participation the next day and took 24 carries for 86 yards and a TD in the 24-16 win over Carolina. Warren, meanwhile, added 12 touches for 49 yards and a touchdown while playing 34 percent of the snaps on offense.

  • Zonovan Knight RB | ARI

    Jets' Zonovan Knight: Gets questionable tag for Week 16

    Knight (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Jaguars after being listed as a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site previously noted that Knight came out of the Jets' Week 15 loss to Detroit with the ankle issue, but he wasn't listed on the team's first two Week 16 injury reports. Per Cimini, Knight is trending toward playing versus Jacksonville, but the questionable designation nonetheless makes the running back's status worth confirming ahead of Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • J.K. Dobbins RB | DEN

    Ravens' J.K. Dobbins: Not on injury report

    Dobbins (knee/rest) isn't listed on Wednesday's injury report as the Ravens prepare for a home game against Atlanta on Saturday.

    The Ravens listed Dobbins as a non-participant Tuesday before he was back in action in full capacity Wednesday. He's topped 100 rushing yards in both of his games since returning from injured reserve, but with only 28 carries total and while playing less than half of Baltimore's offensive snaps in both games. Dobbins may get more work down the stretch, and Saturday's matchup with the Falcons should help out in that regard.

  • Tony Jones RB | ARI

    Seahawks' Tony Jones: Let go by Seattle

    The Seahawks waived Jones on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    The Seahawks claimed Jones off waivers from the Saints back in October, but he's since been let go after failing to carve out a consistent backfield role despite numerous injuries to the position group. He'll now wait for further opportunities to compete for snaps elsewhere.

  • Jeff Wilson RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jeff Wilson: Limited in practice

    Wilson (hip) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Wilson nearly was able to play in this past Saturday's loss to the Bills -- a sign that the running back is expected back for this Sunday's matchup with the Packers. A return to full practice Thursday or Friday would confirm that expectation and allow Wilson to resume his role splitting backfield snaps with Raheem Mostert, who had season highs for rushing yards (136), scrimmage yards (156) and snap share (76 percent) in the Week 15 loss.

  • Chase Edmonds RB | WAS

    Broncos' Chase Edmonds: Set to practice

    Denver designated Edmonds (ankle) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Edmonds, who last suited up Week 11, has been cleared to resume practicing Wednesday and is thus a candidate to be added back to the 53-man roster in advance of Sunday's game against the Rams. If that happens, Edmonds would bolster Denver's backfield depth down the stretch, while likely moving into a complementary role behind Latavius Murray. In this past weekend's win over the Cardinals, Murray carried 24 times for 130 yards and a touchdown.

  • Nick Chubb RB | HOU

    Browns' Nick Chubb: Team optimistic despite no practice

    Chubb (foot) missed another practice Wednesday, but the Browns still have optimism he'll play in Saturday's game against the Saints, Tom Withers of The Associated Press reports.

    The same reportedly is true of star defensive end Myles Garrett, though he's merely dealing with an illness while Chubb is nursing a foot injury. Chubb took on a season-high 70 percent snap share in this past Saturday's 13-3 win over Baltimore, suggesting his injury isn't too serious. In any case, Kareem Hunt presumably would get his first start of the season if Chubb were to miss Saturday's matchup with New Orleans, a game that's likely to be impacted by strong winds and possibly snow.

  • James Cook RB | BUF

    Bills' James Cook: Finds end zone in key win

    Cook carried five times for 34 yards and caught two of three targets for five yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 32-29 win over the Dolphins.

    The TD catch was the first of Cook's NFL career, as he continues to have a sizable role behind starting RB Devin Singletary in a high-powered offense. While Cook has seen only nine carries over the past two games, he has now put up at least eight fantasy points in three of the past five contests, not bad production for a backup running back. His production could spike if the Bills -- currently the top seed in the AFC -- get to rest some starters for the final game of the season, and inexperienced players like Cook get a heavy workload.

  • DeeJay Dallas RB | JAC

    Seahawks' DeeJay Dallas: Non-participant at walkthrough

    Dallas (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

    Dallas has been sidelined for the Seahawks' previous two games and is in danger of missing a third. He will presumably need to get in some work at practice this week in order to get the green light for Saturday's game against Kansas City. No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker (ankle) was also a non-participant Tuesday, which leaves Travis Homer and Tony Jones as the only healthy backs on the depth chart.
