Mitchell is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

With Mitchell a healthy scratch and Isiah Pacheco (knee) having previously been ruled out, look for Kareem Hunt and Brashard Smith to lead the Chiefs' Week 9 backfield, with practice squad elevation Clyde Edwards-Helaire also available to mix in.

Jones hurt his shoulder during Sunday's contest in Detroit.

After a three-yard run at the start of the third quarter, Jones went to the medical tent and has remained there since then. He was sitting on nine carries for 78 yards and two catches (on two targets) for 20 yards at the time he exited. Jordan Mason is poised for more work for as long as Jones is on the sideline.

Hunter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Hunter will be a healthy scratch for a second consecutive game as the Rams roll with a three-man backfield in Kyren Williams, Blake Corum and practice squad running back Ronnie Rivers. Hunter's next opportunity to play is Week 10 against the 49ers on Sunday, Nov. 9.

White (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

With Ashton Jeanty dominating the Raiders' backfield, and Raheem Mostert and Dylan Laube as the reserve backs, White is once again the odd man out on the depth chart. Coming off zero offensive snaps in Week 5, as well as absences in both Week 6 and Week 7, White seems to be destined to ride the inactive list barring injuries to the starting backs.

Kamara (ankle) is active for Sunday's game at the Rams.

Kamara has been playing through an ankle injury the last two contests and was listed as questionable for Week 9 after logging three limited practices. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported late Saturday that Kamara was in line to suit up Sunday, and the Saints have confirmed as much upon posting their inactive list. Kamara has mustered 74 yards from scrimmage and no TDs on 22 touches during the aforementioned two-game stretch and now will be working with new starting signal-caller Tyler Shough instead of Spencer Rattler moving forward.

Perine exited Sunday's game against the Bears after sustaining a right ankle injury.

Before that, Perine had carried once for five yards. While he's sidelined, 2025 sixth-rounder Tahj Brooks is next up for backfield touches behind Chase Brown.

McLaughlin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.

McLaughlin will be a healthy scratch for the eighth time in nine games as the Broncos go with three active running backs in J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie. McLaughlin's next opportunity to see the field is Thursday against the Raiders.

Vaki (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

A hamstring injury limited Vaki's practice participation all week, but he has been cleared to play in Sunday's NFC North tilt. He'll serve as the Lions' RB3 behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery due to Craig Reynolds (hamstring) being inactive.

Pierce (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

The running back is now a healthy scratch for the fifth time in eight games this season. Nick Chubb and Woody Marks continue to hold down Houston's backfield. Pierce has played on just 23 offensive snaps this year, carrying the ball 10 times for 26 yards and no scores.

Carter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Carter played two snaps on offense during the Falcons' Week 8 loss against the Dolphins and turned two carries into 14 yards. However, the undrafted rookie will be a healthy scratch for Sunday's contest in New England, as the Falcons go with Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier as their two active running backs.
