Moss rushed 13 times for 60 yards and secured all three targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 43-21 win over Washington on Sunday.

The passing attack will garner a lot of the attention considering Josh Allen's four touchdowns through the air, but Moss's performance was encouraging from both a real-life and fantasy perspective. The second-year back outpaced Devin Singletary in carries by two and also scored his first receiving touchdown after coming in with only two receptions over the first two games, with both having come Week 2. Whether the ground attack's division of labor Sunday holds true in a Week 4 matchup against the Texans remains to be seen, but it's certainly something for both Moss and Singletary fantasy managers to monitor.

Williams rushed 12 times for 42 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to Baltimore.

Williams watched D'Andre Swift get the Lions on the board with a two-yard touchdown run in the third quarter but picked up one of his own from one yard out in the fourth. The Lions went on to take the lead with a field goal with 1:04 to go, but Baltimore answered back with Justin Tucker's record-breaking 66-yard field goal to win it at the buzzer. Williams and Smith have both excelled in a Detroit offense that has flowed through the two running backs and tight end T.J. Hockenson, though the Lions still are in search of their first win heading into a Week 4 trip to Chicago.

Swift (groin) rushed 14 times for 47 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Ravens. He also caught all seven of his targets for 60 yards and threw an incomplete pass.

Swift's two-yard touchdown run in the third accounted for all of Detroit's points through three quarters. He almost added another touchdown in the fourth quarter after catching the ball in the flat, but he was ruled just short of the end zone after turning upfield. Jamaal Williams ended up capping that drive with a one-yard score after Swift came up short again on the next play. Swift has 19 catches through three weeks and more receiving yards (166) than rushing yards (123), as he's become the focal point of a Lions offense that doesn't get much production out of its wide receivers. The 2020 second-round pick should remain busy Week 4 against the Bears.

Conner rushed 11 times for 43 yards and two touchdowns and secured his only target for 10 yards in the Cardinals' 31-19 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

The offseason addition had his best game as a Cardinal yet, even as his 53-yard rushing tally Week 1 against the Titans featured a season high in yardage. Conner's ability to find the end zone twice in the second half -- going in from four yards in the third quarter before adding a one-yard score in the fourth -- is what made this performance a particularly fruitful one for fantasy managers, but the fact that backfield mate Chase Edmonds saw the same number of carries remains a confounding factor in gauging the fantasy value of both players from game to game. Conner will look to continue establishing himself as a goal-line force in a Week 4 road battle against the Rams.

Williams rushed five times for 22 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Lions.

Latavius Murray (28 yards on seven carries, no targets) wasn't much better, as Baltimore's running backs simply failed to get going in this one. Despite this poor performance, Williams has been the most productive member of the Ravens backfield over Murray and Devonta Freeman, who had just eight yards on three carries in this one. Williams will look to get back on track in Denver in Week 4.

Hines rushed six times for 25 yards and a touchdown and caught five of six targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 25-16 loss to the Titans.

Hines opened the Colts' scoring with a nine-yard touchdown rush in the second quarter. The tailback otherwise was most impactful in the passing game, trailing only top wideout Michael Pittman in catches and receiving yards. In fact, with his output as a receiver Sunday, Hines narrowly topped starting tailback Jonathan Taylor's 72 yards from scrimmage overall. Now having been productive in two of Indianapolis' first three outings, Hines will strive to maintain his form Week 4 versus the Dolphins.

Murray rushed seven times for 28 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Lions.

Murray's yet to top 36 yards on the ground in three games with the Ravens, but he buoyed his value with a touchdown in each of the first two contests. The veteran running back continues to split carries with undrafted rookie Ty'Son Williams, who turned five carries and one target into 22 yards. Baltimore's backfield will look to get back on track against the Broncos in Week 4 after quarterback Lamar Jackson carried the offense as both a passer (287 yards, one touchdown) and rusher (58 yards) in this one.

Chubb rushed 22 times for 84 yards in the Browns' 26-6 win over the Bears on Sunday.

It was about as vanilla a stat line as one will see from Chubb in a game where he put up a solid day on the ground, as the star running back is often good for a score. However, backfield mate Kareem Hunt was the more efficient of the two Sunday, posting 155 total yards and a rushing TD while Chubb failed to draw a target for the first time all season. Chubb's solid, albeit unremarkable, Week 3 stat line aside, he'll look to make up for his first touchdown-less game of the season in a Week 4 road matchup with the Vikings.

Gibson rushed 12 times for just 31 yards but brought in one of two targets for a 73-yard touchdown in Washington's 43-21 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Gibson's lackluster day on the ground was offset by his touchdown reception, a second-quarter play on which the speedy running back flashed his explosiveness by taking a screen pass and outrunning multiple Bills defenders to the end zone. His rushing yardage tally was a disappointment after he'd combined for 159 yards on the ground over the first two games, but he'll look to capitalize on a potentially favorable Week 4 road matchup versus the Falcons.

Ekeler carried the ball 11 times for 55 yards and also caught all six of his targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Chiefs.

The dynamic back has either eclipsed 100 total yards or scored a touchdown in every game this season. After a Week 1 outing in which he failed to log a target, the 26-year-old now has 15 targets in the last two weeks combined. Perhaps even more encouraging for fantasy managers, Ekeler didn't even have passes schemed his way, instead crafting yardage out of repeated checkdowns from Justin Herbert. The Chargers are averaging 42 pass attempts per game thus far this season, which means Ekeler should have a relatively safe floor in PPR formats most weeks and likely could have some bigger games if emerging wideout Mike Williams becomes less efficient with his red-zone targets.
