Darrel Williams RB | NO
Chiefs' Darrel Williams: Makes most of eight touches
Williams rushed five times for 20 yards and added three catches for 60 yards on three targets Sunday against the Broncos.
While Williams saw his offensive snap count dip yet again, he did take advantage of the opportunities he got to turn in 80 total yards. He nearly split work with Clyde Edwards-Helaire evenly, but that resulted in just 26 offensive snaps on the day. As long as both backs remain healthy, the backfield timeshare figures to continue.

Brandon Bolden RB | LV
Patriots' Brandon Bolden: Handles four carries
Bolden had four carries for 28 yards during Monday's 14-10 win over the Bills. He also secured his only target for seven yards.
Bolden benefited from an unusual game script in extremely windy conditions, but he still worked behind both Damien Harris (hamstring) and Rhamondre Stevenson. Additionally, Bolden handled a season-high 86 percent of snaps on special teams. The Patriots will next take on the Colts on Dec. 18, after a Week 14 bye, at which point Bolden stands to return to his usual change-of-pace role.

Salvon Ahmed RB | CHI
Dolphins' Salvon Ahmed: Season-high eight carries
Ahmed had eight carries for 23 yards during Sunday's win over the Giants.
Ahmed only managed 2.9 yards per carry versus New York, but he saw his highest workload of the year on the ground as a result of Phillip Lindsay (ankle) being sidelined. The Week 13 win was just the second time all season Ahmed has played at least 30 percent of offensive snaps.

Devin Singletary RB | NYG
Bills' Devin Singletary: Rushes 10 times
Singletary rushed 10 times for 36 yards in Monday night's 14-10 loss to the Patriots.
Singletary led Buffalo's backfield in carries, but teammate Zack Moss returned to the lineup to match him in overall touches. Although Singletary managed three more scrimmage yards than Moss -- and both outperformed Matt Breida's eight yards on two touches -- none of the Bills' tailbacks were particularly effective amid predictable running conditions. While it was good to see Singletary lead the charge Monday, Buffalo's usual committee approach makes it hard to rely too much on him going into Week 14's matchup versus the Buccaneers.

Zack Moss RB | CIN
Bills' Zack Moss: Gets eight carries
Moss rushed eight times for 21 yards and caught two of three targets for 12 yards in Monday night's 14-10 loss to the Patriots.
Moss returned after being a healthy scratch in Week 12 and ultimately tied Devin Singletary to lead Buffalo's backfield with 10 touches while managing just three fewer scrimmage yards than his teammate. Although his overall production still wasn't anything special, very windy conditions Monday resulted in New England loading up on the running game, restricting space for Moss to maneuver. On the bright side, after his Thanksgiving absence, Moss seems to be back in the rotation alongside Singletary and Matt Breida as Buffalo now prepares for a matchup in Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Rhamondre Stevenson RB | NE
Patriots' Rhamondre Stevenson: Shoulders rushing workload
Stevenson rushed 24 times for 78 yards in Monday night's 14-10 win over the Bills.
Stevenson was heavily relied upon amid extremely windy conditions as well as an injury to teammate Damien Harris (hamstring). Although Harris still managed 10 carries for 111 yards and a score, he was limited to just one handoff in the second half, clearing the way for Stevenson to lead the backfield. Despite consistently facing stacked defensive fronts with the Pats throwing merely three times all game, hurting his efficiency, Stevenson again showed impressive glimpses of his athletic, physical running style, helping New England win in spite of Monday's unusual circumstances. Harris will get some time to heal over the Patriots' bye week, but if he's still restricted once the team reconvenes ahead of Week 15's matchup versus the Colts, Stevenson would be the chief beneficiary.

Austin Walter RB | LV
Austin Walter: Back to Jets' practice squad
Walter reverted to the practice squad Monday.
The running back had one carry for two yards and two catches for nine yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles after being elevated from the practice squad for the game. Walter will now head back down prior to the team's Week 14 matchup with the Saints.

Damien Harris RB | BUF
Patriots' Damien Harris: Done for night
Harris (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday night's game against Buffalo, Evan Lazar of the CLNS Media Network reports.
Harris picked up the injury right before halftime, and while he did manage to carry the ball once in the second half for 22 yards, it was clear he wasn't close to 100 percent. He failed to return to the contest after his lone rush in the third quarter. Expect Rhamondre Stevenson and Brandon Bolden to shoulder the load at tailback the rest of the way. Prior to exiting Monday, Harris rushed 10 times for 111 yards and a touchdown, scoring from 64 yards out in the first half.
-
Ke'Shawn Vaughn RB | SF
Buccaneers' Ke'Shawn Vaughn: No snaps in Week 13 win
Vaughn did not log any snaps during the Buccaneers' 30-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Vaughn avoided healthy scratch status after receiving that designation in Week 12, but he still went unused in the contest. The second-year back only sees occasional action and continues to be a non-factor on offense with the top running back trio of Leonard Fournette, Ronald Jones (illness) and Giovani Bernard generally healthy in front of him.
-
Nate McCrary RB | GB
Nate McCrary: Back to practice squad
McCrary reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday.
The running back was elevated to the active roster ahead of Baltimore's Week 13 game against the Steelers, losing a yard on his one carry. McCrary will head back to the practice squad ahead of Week 14.
