Zack Moss RB | CIN
Bills' Zack Moss: Cleared for Sunday
Moss was cleared from concussion protocol and is set to play Sunday against the Jets.
Moss was a limited participant in both Thursday and Friday's practice, but having cleared concussion protocol the 23-year-old is slated to play Sunday against the Jets. Prior to his injury against the Jags, Moss was coming off a season-high 42 snaps in Week 8 along with a season high in catches (six).

Salvon Ahmed RB | CHI
Dolphins' Salvon Ahmed: Uninvolved again
Ahmed had two carries for six yards during Thursday's 22-10 win over the Ravens. He also secured his lone target for nine yards.
Ahmed once again played a reserve role behind Myles Gaskin, who carried the ball 14 times for just 31 yards (2.2 YPC) while securing one of two targets for 14 yards. Miami's substandard run blocking significantly limits the upside of all backfield options, though the Week 11 matchup against the Jets does present some opportunity. Of course, as Ahmed hasn't scored or logged double-digit carries a single time this season, he isn't in the mix for fantasy consideration.

Corey Clement RB | ARI
Cowboys' Corey Clement: Absent from injury report
Clement (illness) is not listed on the Cowboys' final injury report heading into Sunday's matchup with the Falcons, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Clement missed consecutive practices earlier in the week due to an illness before logging a full workload Friday. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual role on special teams, as well as to provide depth at running back.

D'Andre Swift RB | CHI
Lions' D'Andre Swift: To be without Williams again
Swift will receive most of the reps out of the Lions backfield Sunday in Pittsburgh with Jamaal Williams (groin) still sidelined, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
In the Lions' last game Week 8 against the Eagles, Swift also was Detroit's lead runner, playing 44 of 62 offensive snaps and turning 17 touches into 51 yards from scrimmage. Meanwhile, reserve running backs Jermar Jefferson and Godwin Igwebuike combined for 22 plays, 12 touches, 87 total yards and one rushing TD (Jefferson). Swift's 71 percent snap share was in line with his work from the previous four games, so he should be good for a majority of the RB reps yet again Sunday.

Elijah Mitchell RB | PHI
49ers' Elijah Mitchell: Limited at practice again
Mitchell (ribs) was a limited practice participant Friday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Mitchell continues to sport a no-contact jersey and appears on track to play through the rib injury for a second straight week. He had a season high for targets (five) and a season low for carries (eight) in last week's 31-17 loss to the Cardinals, with a 66 percent snap share being right in Mitchell's usual range. It is possible he picks up some extra work Monday if JaMycal Hasty (ankle) is inactive, though it's more likely Jeff Wilson simply takes over Hasty's passing-down role.

JaMycal Hasty RB | NE
49ers' JaMycal Hasty: Absent from practice
Hasty (ankle) didn't practice Friday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
With Hasty missing back-to-back practices, Jeff Wilson may fill in as the passing-down back Monday night against the Rams. Hasty is averaging 2.6 carries and 2.6 catches for 27.8 total yards per game, with 29-to-36 percent snap share in each of his five appearances this season.

Rhamondre Stevenson RB | NE
Patriots' Rhamondre Stevenson: Questionable after another missed practice
Stevenson (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns after not practicing this week.
That's also the case with fellow running back Damien Harris, but the duo's official 'questionable' listing offers a degree of hope that one or both could potentially gain clearance to play by Sunday. If not, however, Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor would be in line to lead New England's Week 10 rushing attack.

Damien Harris RB | BUF
Patriots' Damien Harris: No practice, but listed as questionable
Harris (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns after not practicing this week.
That's also the case with fellow running back Rhamondre Stevenson, but the duo's official statuses' suggest that the Patriots still are holding out some hope that one or both potentially could be cleared to play by Sunday. In the event they're unavailable versus Cleveland, Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor would be in line to head the Patriots' Week 10 rushing attack.

Ezekiel Elliott RB | LAC
Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott: Ready to play
Elliott (knee) has been removed from the injury report for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Elliott briefly exited the Week 9 loss to Denver with a knee bruise, but it ultimately was a blowout loss that seemed to be the bigger factor in his season-low 53 percent snap share. His ability to practice this week and shed the injury designation suggests Elliott will return to his usual role against a subpar Atlanta defense.
