Master Teague III RB | PIT
Master Teague: Cut from Steelers' practice squad
Teague was cut from the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Teague will look for his next opportunity after being let go by the Steelers for the second time this year and is still looking to make his NFL debut after wrapping up his collegiate career with Ohio State in 2021. The running back will likely catch on with another team's practice unit in the near future or even return to Pittsburgh at some point.

Ke'Shawn Vaughn RB | SF
Buccaneers' Ke'Shawn Vaughn: Limited to special teams in win
Vaughn logged 12 special-teams snaps but none on offense during the Buccaneers' 17-16 win over the Saints on Monday night.
The reserve running back was relegated to a non-existent role on offense with Leonard Fournette returning from his hip injury. Vaughn had logged eight carries and drawn a pair of targets over the previous three games, but Fournette and Rachaad White were the only Buccaneers backs to record any touches Monday night.

Jonathan Williams RB | WAS
Commanders' Jonathan Williams: Plays limited role
Williams had one carry for one yard in Sunday's 20-20 tie against the Giants.
Williams saw just two snaps on offense while contributing 17 on special teams. The veteran running back has had a limited role this year, compiling a total of 77 yards on 11 carries in nine games. Firmly behind Antonio Gibson and Brian Robinson, Williams will likely need an injury to occur to see his role increase.

Josh Jacobs RB | GB
Raiders' Josh Jacobs: Limited again
Jacobs (quadriceps) was again listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice-report, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
The Raiders again held a walk-through in favor of an actual practice, so his limited participation is just an estimate. Given Jacobs' heavy workload over the past four games and the short week ahead of Thursday's game against the Rams, it is not surprising that Las Vegas is opting to err on the side of caution here. While there is no real worry at this point to think his Week 14 status is in any danger, it will be worth monitoring his status on the team's final injury report Wednesday.

Ameer Abdullah RB | JAC
Raiders' Ameer Abdullah: Logs limited estimate
The Raiders listed Abdullah (hamstring) as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Abdullah's limted estimate was his second straight in as many days, as the Raiders prep for a matchup with the Rams on Thursday. The veteran running back recorded one carry for four yards and failed to haul in his only target during Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Chargers, but with Josh Jacobs playing through some nagging injuries, the rest of Las Vegas' backfield options -- including Abdullah -- could see additional work if at any point Jacobs needs some extra rest.

Jonathan Ward RB | BAL
Jonathan Ward: Loses roster spot
Ward was cut from the Jets' practice squad Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
Ward joined the team last Tuesday after being waived by the Cardinals. His departure could be a sign that Michael Carter (ankle) will be ready to return Week 14 against the Bills.

Deon Jackson RB | DET
Colts' Deon Jackson: Just two carries in loss
Jackson had two carries for six yards in Sunday's loss at Dallas.
Jackson played on eight of the offense's 72 snaps. He's the clear backup to Jonathan Taylor after the trade of Nyheim Hines to Buffalo, but Taylor is playing nearly every down under new head coach Jeff Saturday.

Boston Scott RB | PIT
Eagles' Boston Scott: Six carries and one catch
Scott carried the ball six times for 16 yards and caught one pass for five more yards in Sunday's big win over the Titans.
Scott had just four fewer carries and eight fewer yards than starting running back Miles Sanders, but that's primarily thanks to the fact that the Eagles had so much success in the passing game that they didn't need to do much on the ground. Scott has now reached seven touches twice this season but has yet to receive more than that.

Kenneth Gainwell RB | TB
Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Six touches in blowout win
Gainwell gained 15 yards on three carries and added 38 more yards on a trio of receptions in Sunday's 35-10 win over Tennessee.
Gainwell averaged 3.9 touches through the Eagles' first 10 games, but he's now averaged 7.5 touches across the team's last two contests. While that's a noticeable trend in the right direction, Gainwell's workload remains far too low for him to be a reliable fantasy option.
