Robinson carried the ball 17 times for 84 yards and caught both his targets for four yards in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts.

While the third-year back posted his best rushing yardage total since Week 6, he was denied a much bigger performance, as Tyler Allgeier punched in a pair of one-yard TDs in his place. Robinson hasn't scored a rushing touchdown in four straight games, his longest drought since his rookie season, as a result of the increased red-zone usage for his backup, and he has just two rushing scores on the year compared to Allgeier's six. Robinson will try to hit paydirt in Week 11 against the Panthers, a team he's scored five total touchdowns against (four on the ground, one through the air) in five career meetings.

Kiner (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Kiner was elevated to the active roster Saturday for the scenario in which starting running back Aaron Jones (shoulder/toe) was unable to suit up. With Jones active for Sunday's contest, Kiner ends up a healthy scratch against the Ravens.

Wright is active for Sunday's game against the Bills, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Wright has been a healthy scratch for most of the season, but he'll suit up Sunday -- marking his third time garnering active status on the campaign. The move likely comes as insurance for Ollie Gordon, who is active Sunday but has been limited in practice throughout the week by an ankle injury. Wright isn't likely to see much opportunity so long as both De'Von Achane and Gordon remain healthy.

Swift (groin/personal) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

After he was sidelined for the first time all season in the Bears' Week 9 win over the Bengals, Swift returned to practice Wednesday as a limited participant. He appeared to clear up any lingering concern about the health of his groin by practicing fully Thursday, but he ended up taking a questionable tag into Sunday after a personal matter kept him off the field for the Bears' final session of the week Friday. Though Swift is now ready to play ahead of Sunday's contest and isn't expected to be operating with any restrictions in his return to the lineup, he could be at risk of ceding more work to No. 2 back Kyle Monangai, who broke out with 198 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 29 touches in the victory over the Bengals. Head coach Ben Johnson suggested Friday that he would likely take a hot-hand approach to the backfield between Swift and Monangai during Sunday's contest, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com.

Herbert (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

A groin issue limited Herbert's practice participation Thursday and Friday, and the injury is severe enough for the fifth-year pro to be sidelined for Sunday's contest. Kene Nwangwu will be available as the Jets' RB3 behind Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis in Herbert's absence. Herbert will look to be available for the Jets' Week 11 clash against the Patriots on Thursday.

Kamara (ankle) is listed as active Sunday at Carolina.

Kamara has toughed out an ankle injury for more than a month at this point, but despite being available for each of the last four games, he turned 44 touches into just 167 yards from scrimmage and no TDs, while his snap share ranged from 51 to 84 percent during that span. Since Devin Neal took over the No. 2 RB role from Kendre Miller (torn ACL) as of Week 8, the former has only seven touches for 23 total yards in two contests, so Kamara remains the top option out of the Saints backfield.

Gordon (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Gordon suffered an ankle injury that caused him to miss the second half of Miami's Week 9 loss to the Ravens. However, he managed to log three limited practices in preparation for the matchup against Buffalo, which was enough for him to suit up. Gordon should get a handful of carries while serving as De'Von Achane's backup.

Ali (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Ali worked exclusively on special teams in the two games since the Ravens' Week 7 bye. He will be a sideline observer for Sunday's game in Minnesota as the Ravens go with three running backs on the active roster in Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell. Ali's next opportunity to play is Week 11 against the Browns on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Jones (shoulder/toe) is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Jones emerged from last Sunday's win in Detroit with an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder, which, along with a toe injury, led to a DNP/LP/LP practice regimen. While the Vikings listed him as questionable for Week 10 action, he told Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com on Friday that "I still have two days, so I feel like I'll be in a good spot" by Sunday. With his active status now confirmed, Jones will continue to split the backfield with Jordan Mason, which has amounted to 18 touches for 138 yards from scrimmage and no touchdowns for Jones over the past two contests (as opposed to Mason's 16 touches for 43 total yards and no TDs during that same span).

Giddens (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons in Berlin.

Giddens will be in street clothes for the second straight game while the Colts go with Tyler Goodson and Ameer Abdullah as their backup options behind starting running back Jonathan Taylor. The rookie fifth-round pick out of Kansas State had suited up in each of Indianapolis' first eight games, carrying 18 times for 66 yards (3.7 average) while failing to record any receptions on two targets.
