Stevenson (ankle) returned to Monday's game in Arizona, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

Stevenson wasn't sidelined long, but Kevin Harris rumbled in for a 14-yard touchdown while Stevenson was getting his ankle checked out on the sideline. New England likely will go run-heavy for the rest of the game with its top two wide receivers Jakobi Meyers (concussion) and DeVante Parker (head) both sidelined.

Stevenson (ankle) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Both Stevenson and wide receiver DeVante Parker (head) are questionable to return, while the Cardinals lost quarterback Kyler Murray to a non-contact knee injury, all in the first quarter. With Damien Harris (thigh) inactive, the Patriots are down to Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris in the backfield.

Scott rushed six times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 48-22 win over the Giants. He also caught one pass for four yards.

Scott found the end zone for the second time this season. His three-yard rush late in the fourth quarter stretched the Eagles' lead to 34 points. While he did wind up with a season-high seven touches for the second consecutive week, five of those came with the game well out of reach in the fourth quarter.

Chestnut reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Chestnut was elevated from the practice squad for the second time in as many weeks ahead of Sunday's loss to Jacksonville. With Hassan Haskins (hip) inactive and Trenton Cannon (knee) on IR, the undrafted rookie served as Tennessee's third-string running back behind Dontrell Hilliard, who was forced out with a neck injury. Chestnut did not record a rush across his seven offensive snaps, but he did haul in both of his targets for eight yards. He also returned two kickoffs for 53 yards across 12 special-teams snaps. With Hilliard already ruled out Week 15 versus the Chargers, it's likely that Chestnut would be elevated to serve as Tennessee's No. 2 running back if Haskins also remains sidelined.

Gainwell did not receive a single carry in Sunday's 48-22 win over the Giants and gained zero yards on his lone reception.

Backups often can see a respectable workload in lopsided games like this one, but that wasn't the case for Gainwell. He only saw the field for 12 offensive snaps, the same number as fellow depth running back Boston Scott. Scott wound up with seven touches to Gainwell's one, though Gainwell still has a narrow 55-48 edge on the season overall.

Igwebuike reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Igwebuike received the elevation for Sunday's loss to the Panthers with Kenneth Walker and DeeJay Dallas both out due to ankle injuries. However, the 28-year-old saw no snaps on offense, as Travis Homer and Tony Jones handled all of the snaps at running back. Igwebuike did handle kick-return duties though, netting 104 yards on three runbacks.

Jones rushed once for two yards and didn't gain any yards on his one catch (two targets) in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Panthers.

Jones was in line for a respectable workload because Kenneth Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) were inactive. However, Jones played just five offensive snaps while Travis Homer got the start and handled 48 snaps. There's a quick turnaround ahead of Thursday's matchup versus the 49ers, so there's a decent chance Walker and Dallas sit out again. It will be difficult to trust Jones for fantasy purposes considering his disappointing Week 14 usage.

With Damien Harris (thigh) inactive, Stevenson will continue to lead the Patriots backfield Monday night against the Cardinals.

Harris also was unavailable for the Patriots' Week 13 loss to the Bills, a contest in which Stevenson recorded a 98 percent snap share, while carrying 10 times for 54 yards and catching six of his team-high eight targets for 24 yards. On Monday, Stevenson once again should handle the bulk of the team's backfield touches, with Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris in reserve, a context that puts Stevenson in a position to put up fantasy-worthy numbers versus an Arizona defense that is allowing an average of 110.8 rushing yards per game.

Harris (thigh) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Cardinals.

Harris also missed the Patriots' Week 13 loss to the Bills, and in that contest Rhamondre Stevenson logged a 98 percent snap share en route to carrying 10 times for 54 yards and catching six of his team-high eight targets for 24 yards. This time around, Stevenson again should be in line for a big backfield workload versus Arizona, with Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris in reserve. Damien Harris now will target a potential return to action Week 15, when the Patriots are slated to face the Raiders on the road.

McCaffrey (knee) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

McCaffrey logged 44 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers en route to carrying 14 times for 119 yards and a TD while adding two catches (on three targets) for 34 yards and a receiving score. With no reported setbacks in that contest, it seems likely that the running back's listed limitations Monday are maintenance-related rather than indicative of any setbacks with the knee issue he's managed at practice of late.
