  • Breece Hall RB | NYJ

    Jets' Breece Hall: Hurts knee Sunday

    Hall has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Broncos with a knee injury.

    Prior to his exit, Hall carried four times for 72 yards and TD, but the fact that he was ruled out not long after he left the contest is concerning. In his absence, Michael Carter is in line to head the Jets' rushing attack, with Ty Johnson on hand to work in a complementary role.

  • Mike Boone RB | MIA

    Broncos' Mike Boone: Leaves with injury

    Boone (ankle) is questionable to return Sunday against the Jets, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Boone had four carries for 23 yards before exiting with the injury. The veteran running back is currently in a true timeshare with Melvin Gordon and Latavius Murray in the Broncos' backfield. While he is sidelined, Gordon and Murray will likely split the team's offensive snaps.

  • Jaguars' James Robinson: No carries in Week 7 loss

    Robinson didn't log a carry and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Giants.

    Robinson barely played while Travis Etienne turned 14 carries and five targets into 119 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. After the game, coach Doug Pederson said the team still has confidence in Robinson but wanted to make sure he's 100 percent, suggesting an injury could be responsible for his limited role in the loss. Robinson's practice participation before the team's Week 8 matchup with the Broncos should help illuminate his availability.

  • Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott: Pair of rushing TDs in win

    Elliott rushed 15 times for 57 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys' 24-6 win over the Lions on Sunday.

    Elliott led the Cowboys in carries, notably outpacing Tony Pollard by three carries and also benefitting from a pair of gimme rush attempts from the one-yard line that he cashed in. Elliott now has three rushing TDs in the last two games, and although his passing game work has all but dried up thus far this season, he retains some solid scoring upside going into a Week 8 home matchup against the Bears.

  • Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Scores first NFL TD in lead role

    Etienne rushed 14 times for 114 yards and a touchdown while catching one of five targets for five yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Giants. He also ran in a two-point conversion and lost a fumble.

    Etienne scored from seven yards out on Jacksonville's first drive for his first NFL touchdown. The 2021 first-round pick -- who missed his entire rookie campaign due to a Lisfranc injury -- then immediately got into the end zone again for a two-point conversion to give the Jaguars an 8-7 lead. He fumbled at the Giants' five-yard line in the second quarter but made up for it with a 49-yard burst down the sideline early in the third to set up a Trevor Lawrence rushing touchdown. Etienne finished with 19 combined carries and targets to James Robinson's one, so it looks like Etienne has taken over as Jacksonville's featured back heading into a Week 8 visit from the Broncos.

  • Aaron Jones RB | MIN

    Packers' Aaron Jones: Two receiving TDs in loss

    Jones rushed eight times for only 23 yards but brought in nine of 10 targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers' 23-21 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.

    The Packers ran the ball only 12 times overall in their third straight loss, but Jones more than made it up to fantasy managers with his work through the air. The versatile veteran paced the Packers in receptions and trailed Allen Lazard by only two yards for a share of the team lead in that category as well. Jones' second score, a 21-yard grab down the left sideline, put Green Bay within two points, but a last-ditch drive fell short. Jones' pass-catching production was a season-best effort for him across the board, and he'll look to play an integral part again during a Week 8 Sunday night road showdown versus the Bills.

  • Gus Edwards RB | LAC

    Ravens' Gus Edwards: Pair of scores in return

    Edwards (knee) rushed 16 times for 66 yards and two touchdowns and failed to bring in his only target in the Ravens' 23-20 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    The Rutgers product somewhat surprisingly took on lead-back duties in his first regular-season game action since 2020, going into the end zone from seven yards out in the second quarter and one yard away in the third period. Edwards comfortably led the backfield in carries, with Kenyan Drake, who'd put together a 100-yard effort in Week 6, five carries behind him. Having seemingly proven the health of his surgically repaired knee, Edwards appears likely to continue handling a heavy workload as long as J.K. Dobbins (knee) remains on injured reserve, with his next opportunity to knock off rust coming in a Week 8 Thursday night road matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Nick Chubb RB | HOU

    Browns' Nick Chubb: Efficient effort in Week 7 loss

    Chubb rushed 16 times for 91 yards and a touchdown while also bringing in two of three targets for 16 yards in the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

    Chubb comfortably paced the Browns backfield in carries and rushing yards while also recording a rare double-digit yardage catch. The fifth-year veteran fell just short of what would have been his fourth 100-yard effort in the last five games, but game script continues to be about the only opponent that Chubb hasn't proven capable of conquering to date this season. He'll aim to keep up his excellent first half of the campaign when he faces the Bengals at home for a Monday night Halloween matchup in Week 8.

  • Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR

    Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Hurts ankle in Week 7

    Hubbard injured his ankle during Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    With Christian McCaffrey out of town, Hubbard got the start in Carolina's first contest following the trade, working in tandem with D'Onta Foreman before departing in the fourth quarter. Prior to his exit, Hubbard had nine carries for 63 yards and one touchdown and gathered in two of three targets for 10 yards. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Hubbard "could have come back in if needed," suggesting that his injury is viewed as relatively minor.

  • Jordan Mason RB | MIN

    49ers' Jordan Mason: Healthy scratch

    Mason (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Chiefs.

    Mason will sit for the first time this season after the team's acquisition of Christian McCaffrey. The undrafted rookie will likely need an injury to find himself on the active roster moving forward.
