Conner rushed once for six yards during Sunday's 40-14 loss at Detroit.

Conner played four offensive snaps in the blowout loss and received his fourth carry of the year. The rookie fifth-round pick has rarely seen the field this season, and that's unlikely to change much if workhorse Travis Etienne remains healthy.

Hasty played three offensive snaps during Sunday's 40-14 loss to the Lions.

The 26-year-old had 17 touches for 95 yards and a touchdown after Travis Etienne exited with a foot injury in Week 12, but Etienne returned Sunday and played 88 percent of the offensive snaps. Hasty barely saw the field, while rookie Snoop Conner played a few snaps and had one carry. Hasty should remain the top backup for now, but Darrell Henderson could also soon be a factor after being claimed off waivers in late November.

Taylor had one carry for six yards in Sunday's 28-19 victory over the Bears.

Fellow running back Aaron Jones briefly left Sunday's contest with a shin injury, which allowed Taylor to both log a season-high six snaps and run the ball for the first time all season. Jones returned to the contest and presumably will be good to go following the Packers' Week 14 bye, so Taylor remains a distant third option in the backfield for the time being.

Robinson rushed four times for 10 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 27-22 loss to Minnesota.

Michael Carter's absence due to an ankle injury paved the way for Robinson to suit up after he was a healthy scratch for the Jets' previous game, but the former Jacksonville running back still saw minimal usage. Zonovan Knight rushed 15 times for 90 yards in the lead role, demonstrating the type of tough running the Jets have been hoping for but have yet to see out of Robinson. Even if Carter remains out in Week 14 against the Bills, Robinson's usage will likely remain minimal.

Williams rushed three times for nine yards and failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Seahawks.

The Rams saw six different players record a rushing attempt Sunday, and Williams finished fifth on the team in rushing yardage, only besting backup quarterback Bryce Perkins, who took the field for a single snap. Cam Akers led the team with 17 carries for 60 yards and two TDs and was on the field for 72 percent of the Rams' offensive snaps, compared to just 28 percent for Williams. He has seemingly fallen to the No. 2 role in one of the weakest offensive units in the league, a development that makes it difficult to trust the rookie running back in fantasy lineups, even with the Raiders next on the docket for a Thursday night matchup in Week 14.

Benjamin was on the active roster for Week 13's game against the Browns.

He was claimed off waivers from Arizona three weeks ago, and Benjamin did not receive a touch or a target on just four snaps in his Houston debut. With Rex Burkhead (concussion) unavailable, Dare Ogunbowale was the primary backup for Dameon Pierce, but that could change as Benjamin becomes more familiar with the offense.

Walker is scheduled to undergo tests Monday to evaluate what Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has termed as a "jammed" right ankle, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Walker exited in the first half of Sunday's 27-23 win over the Rams with the ankle injury, finishing the day with three carries for 36 yards across 14 snaps. According to Rapoport, Walker's injury is different from a sprain because the joint of his ankle jammed down, but the Seahawks are still trying to determine the severity of the issue. Walker's upcoming tests should shed more light on his availability for the Seahawks' Week 14 game against the Panthers.

Ogunbowale had two carries for eight yards and caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 27-14 loss to the Browns.

With Rex Burkhead (concussion) inactive, Ogunbowale moved up the depth chart to become the top backup running back behind Dameon Pierce. Ogunbowale's been used mostly as a special teamer until the last couple weeks, while Eno Benjamin, claimed off waivers from the Cardinals three weeks ago, made his Houston debut Sunday and did not receive a touch or a target in four snaps. Benjamin has a better track record than Ogunbowale, so he could eventually become the primary backup RB once the coaches feel he has a grasp of the offense.

Felton did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 27-14 win over the Texans in Week 13.

Felton was on the active roster for the first time in four weeks, which turned out to be a prudent decision by head coach Kevin Stefanski. The Browns lost slot receiver David Bell to a hand injury early and used Felton as a fill-in. He played a season-high 36 snaps and is more familiar with the slot role than Anthony Schwartz, who played five snaps on offense, so Felton could see consistent usage if Bell misses additional time.

Johnson played 15 snaps on special teams and none on offense in Sunday's 27-14 win over Houston.

It's not surprising to see Johnson used on special teams only, but it was interesting that Jerome Ford got his first snaps and touches on offense. If an injury to Nick Chubb or Kareem Hunt should occur in the final weeks of the regular season, it's not a given that Johnson would get first crack at replacing either back in the rotation.
