  • Dolphins' Raheem Mostert: Contained in defeat

    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.

  • Austin Ekeler RB | WAS

    Chargers' Austin Ekeler: Scores touchdown yet again

    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.

  • Gus Edwards RB | LAC

    Ravens' Gus Edwards: Overshadowed by Dobbins

    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.

  • Jeff Wilson RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jeff Wilson: Won't return against Chargers

    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.

  • Rachaad White RB | WAS

    Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Leading rusher in loss

    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.

  • Jeff Wilson RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jeff Wilson: Hurts hip on SNF

    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.

  • Marlon Mack RB | ARI

    Broncos' Marlon Mack: Dazzling TD in Sunday's loss

    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.

  • Jordan Mason RB | MIN

    49ers' Jordan Mason: Strong in backup role

    Mason rushed 11 times for 56 yards and was not targeted in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers.

    Mason followed up last week's career high in rushing with another new high-water mark in yards. The undrafted rookie absorbed nearly all of Elijah Mitchell's (knee) carries over the last two weeks, providing some low-end fantasy value for those in deeper formats. Mason still is the clear No. 2 behind workhorse Christian McCaffrey, who went for 153 combined yards and two touchdowns Sunday. Expect the Georgia Tech product to see a similar workload in a soft matchup against the Seahawks on Thursday.

  • Broncos' Latavius Murray: Stifled by Kansas City

    Murray carried the ball eight times for 32 yards and caught three of five targets for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 34-28 loss to Kansas City.

    Game script cost him opportunities as Denver fell behind 27-0 before the offense got going, but Murray was also upstaged by Marlon Mack, who scored his first TD since 2019 on an impressive 66-yard catch-and-run in the third quarter. Mike Boone, the other Broncos RB active for this game, got carted off the field with an ankle injury, but a resurgent Mack would represent a bigger threat to Murray's lead role heading into a Week 15 clash with the Cardinals.

  • Chiefs' Jerick McKinnon: Huge day as receiver Sunday

    McKinnon carried the ball six times for 22 yards and caught seven of nine targets for 112 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-28 win over the Broncos.

    The running back set the tone for another huge performance by the Kansas City offense in the second quarter, catching a grenade toss-like pass from Patrick Mahomes along the sideline and taking it 56 yards to the house. McKinnon then capped the team's next possession with a 10-yard TD catch. Rookie Isiah Pacheco remains the primary early-down back for Kansas City, but both RBs figure to be productive in Week 15 against a Texans defense that just coughed up 143 combined yards and three touchdowns to the Cowboys duo of Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott.
