  • Jaguars' JaMycal Hasty: Effective filling in for Etienne

    Hasty rushed the ball 12 times for 28 yards in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Ravens. He added five receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown.

    Travis Etienne (foot) was forced to exit Sunday's game against the Ravens after just two carries, which opened the door for Hasty. Hasty wasn't all that effective as a rusher, but he had a number of impact receptions, highlighted by a 28-yard touchdown as well as gains of 23 and 13 yards. Etienne's injury was downplayed after the game, and even if he were unable to play in Week 13 against the Lions, Darrell Henderson could mix into the offense and take work away from Hasty.

  • Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR

    Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Earns 17 carries

    Hubbard rushed the ball 17 times for 65 yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Broncos.

    Hubbard saw a relatively even split in workload with D'Onta Foreman, which led to his first game of the season with double-digit rushing attempts. Hubbard was still the secondary back, however, and benefitted from an extremely run-heavy offensive game plan for the Panthers. Moving forward, Carolina will likely have to throw the ball more often to remain competitive, in which case Hubbard's role can be projected to shrink.

  • Isiah Pacheco RB | DET

    Chiefs' Isiah Pacheco: Strong showing against Rams

    Pacheco carried the ball 22 times for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams. He also caught his only target for 17 yards.

    In his third game as the lead early down back for Kansas City, Pacheco saw his yards per carry regress but made up for it by getting into the end zone for the first time since Week 1. The rookie running back has 258 rushing yards over that three-game stretch, and he figures to see plenty of work again in Week 13 against the Bengals.

  • Jordan Mason RB | MIN

    49ers' Jordan Mason: Could take over backup role

    Mason rushed five times for 25 yards in Sunday's 13-0 win over the Saints.

    Mason was used on the final drive of the game with the 49ers up multiple scores for the second week in a row. Unlike last week's garbage time appearance against the Cardinals, the undrafted rookie was actually needed after No. 2 back Elijah Mitchell (knee) went down late in this contest. Starter Christian McCaffrey was dealing with knee soreness as well, but the former's is expected to be more serious. It sounds like Mitchell will be forced to miss some time again, and CMC doesn't have the build to handle a 20-plus touch workload, so Mason could step into a prominent backup role in head coach Kyle Shanahan's run-heavy offensive scheme. If that were to be the case, the Georgia Tech product should absorb a chunk of Mitchell's carries in next Sunday's showdown against the Dolphins.

  • Kyren Williams RB | LAR

    Rams' Kyren Williams: Modest numbers against KC

    Williams carried the ball 11 times for 35 yards and caught all three of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to Kansas City.

    He saw the most carries of any Rams player, but both Cam Akers (37) and quarterback Bryce Perkins (44) produced more rushing yards on their totes. Williams did make up for it by tying for the team lead in receptions, however. With the Los Angeles offense in complete disarray, neither Williams nor Akers figure to have much fantasy appeal in Week 13 against the Seahawks -- even against a defense that just coughed up over 300 combined yards to Josh Jacobs.

  • Cam Akers RB | SEA

    Rams' Cam Akers: Little volume in loss

    Akers carried the ball eight times for 37 yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to Kansas City.

    While he led the Rams' running backs in rushing yards, quarterback Bryce Perkins out-gained Akers on the ground, and rookie Kyren Williams wound up with more scrimmage yards. With the Los Angeles offense in complete disarray, neither RB figures to have much fantasy appeal in Week 13 against the Seahawks -- even against a defense that just coughed up over 300 combined yards to Josh Jacobs.

  • Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Finds end zone twice against Vegas

    Walker carried the ball 14 times for 26 yards and two touchdowns while catching his only target for 13 yards in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.

    For the second straight game, Walker was largely held in check, and 12 of his runs netted him a total of zero yards. Fortunately, the other two resulted in a 12-yard TD in the first quarter and a 14-yard score in the third. Seattle's rookie RB will look to produce more yards in Week 13 against a Rams defense that just had trouble containing fellow first-year back Isiah Pacheco.

  • Gus Edwards RB | LAC

    Ravens' Gus Edwards: Leads Baltimore backfield

    Edwards rushed the ball 16 times for 52 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-27 loss to Jacksonville.

    Edwards dominated work out of the Baltimore backfield, as no other running back recorded more than two carries in the game. His actual performance wasn't all that inspiring and was largely salvaged by a one-yard touchdown plunge late in the fourth quarter. Edwards was inefficient and also lost a key fumble moments after his touchdown, which led directly to Baltimore's loss. Until J.K. Dobbins (knee) is able to return, the team doesn't have great options to supplant Edwards as the lead back, so he should continue to see consistent work for the time being.

  • Tyler Allgeier RB | ARI

    Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Records 54 yards

    Allgeier rushed the ball 11 times for 54 yards in Sunday's 19-13 loss to the Commanders.

    Allgeier matched Cordarrelle Patterson for the team lead in carries, and he was fairly efficient with his opportunity. His day was highlighted by gains of 15 and 11 yards, which helped him top 50 rushing yards for the second consecutive game. Though Allgeier has a consistent role in Atlanta's offense, he isn't likely to see a spike in usage barring the absence of Patterson.

  • Josh Jacobs RB | GB

    Raiders' Josh Jacobs: Caps huge day with winning TD

    Jacobs carried the ball 33 times for 229 yards and two touchdowns while catching six of seven targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Seahawks.

    Despite being sidelined for the final four-plus minutes of the fourth quarter while being checked out for a possible calf injury, Jacobs returned to action in OT and put an exclamation mark on a career-best performance by rumbling 86 yards for the game-winning score. As if his production on the ground wasn't enough, the running back also tied Davante Adams for the team lead in receiving yards. Jacobs has recorded five games with triple-digit rushing yards and three with multiple rushing touchdowns in the Raiders' last eight contests, and he figures to post big numbers again in Week 13 against a Chargers defense that's among the league's worst against the run.
