TreVeyon Henderson RB | NE
Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: In clear for Thursday night
Henderson (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.
Estimated as a limited participant Monday on the Patriots' initial weekly practice report, Henderson took every rep in Tuesday's session to erase any concerns about his availability for Thursday's game against the Jets. The makeup of the New England backfield remains unclear, however, as Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) and Terrell Jennings (knee) were listed as limited participants for a second straight day and were spotted mostly working off to the side Tuesday, per Mark Daniels of MassLive.com. The status of Stevenson in particular will bear watching, as a third straight absence could set the stage for another big performance from Henderson. The rookie second-round pick erupted for 147 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries against the Bucs in Week 10.

Josh Williams RB | TB
Buccaneers' Josh Williams: Dealt six-game ban
Williams received a six-game suspension Tuesday for violating the NFL's performance-enhancing substances policy, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
The undrafted rookie out of LSU had suited up in three of the Buccaneers' first nine games this season, carrying four times for 11 yards. Williams has received most of his playing time on special teams, though he had been active as the team's No. 3 running back behind Rachaad White and Sean Tucker over the previous two games while Bucky Irving (shoulder/foot) has remained sidelined. With Irving not expected to return to action Week 11 at Buffalo, expect the Buccaneers to elevate one of Owen Wright or Michael Wiley to serve as their No. 3 back in Williams' absence.

J.K. Dobbins RB | DEN
Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Could land on IR
The Broncos are viewing Dobbins as a potential candidate for injured reserve after he sustained a left foot injury in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Raiders, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Dobbins suffered the injury on an apparent hip-drop tackle in the third quarter, and the team is waiting for a second opinion on it before making any roster decisions. Though the Broncos have a longer turnaround than normal in advance of Sunday's game against Kansas City, Dobbins is at significant risk of being sidelined for the first time all season. Rookie RJ Harvey is the next man up for touches and snaps in the Denver backfield, while Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin would be candidates for increased roles as well.

Jonathan Ward RB | NE
Jonathan Ward: Back with New England
The Patriots signed Ward to the practice squad Tuesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Ward was cut from New England's practice squad last week, but with Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) and Terrell Jennings (knee) banged up, Ward is back to provide some depth at running back.

Ameer Abdullah RB | JAC
Colts' Ameer Abdullah: One grab in win
Abdullah caught his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Falcons.
Abdullah failed to record a single carry Sunday, as the veteran running back played just five of the Colts' 77 offensive snaps against the Falcons. The 32-year-old was was not needed much in the game, as starter Jonathan Taylor ran all over the Falcons on his way to 244 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. With Taylor dominating the backfield for the Colts, Abdullah should not be trusted for fantasy purposes. He'll continue to operate as a depth option when Indianapolis comes out of their Week 11 bye to face off against the Chiefs in Week 12.

Tyler Goodson RB | ATL
Colts' Tyler Goodson: Handles one carry in Week 10
Goodson rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Falcons.
Goodson played just two of the Colts' 77 offensive snaps Sunday, behind both Jonathan Taylor (70) and Ameer Abdullah (5). With Taylor handling a 91 percent snap share and rushing for 244 yards and three touchdowns, the 25-year-old Goodson was not relied upon in the Colts' offensive plans. This has been the case for most of the 2025 campaign, as the third-year running back has recorded just five carries for 12 yards and two catches for eight yards in the five games he's played so far. Barring an injury to Taylor, Goodson is far off the fantasy radar as Indianapolis heads into its Week 11 bye before a matchup against the Chiefs in Week 12.

Raheem Mostert RB | LV
Raiders' Raheem Mostert: Makes 11-yard reception in loss
Mostert rushed once for four yards and caught his lone target for 11 yards in Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Broncos.
Mostert has been the target of two or less offensive touches in three consecutive games, while rookie Ashton Jeanty took 19 carries for 60 yards and a score to go along with three receptions Thursday. Jeanty figures to retain the workhorse role ahead of a Week 11 matchup against the Cowboys, as Mostert remains the distant RB2 in this Raiders offense.

Josh Jacobs RB | GB
Packers' Josh Jacobs: Logs 26 touches in loss
Jacobs rushed 21 times for 74 yards and a touchdown and brought in five of six targets for 33 yards in the Packers' 10-7 loss to the Eagles on Monday night. He also lost a fumble.
Jacobs recorded the Packers' only touchdown of the game on a six-yard run with just under six minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, which marked his 11th score of the season on the ground. The veteran back's trip to the end zone extended his touchdown streak to six games, but he also lost a fumble at his own 44-yard line with only 1:30 remaining, significantly hampering the chances of a comeback. Jacobs has yet to crack the 100-yard threshold in any contest this season, but a Week 11 road matchup against the Giants on Sunday presents a very good opportunity to put an end to that unfavorable trend.

Saquon Barkley RB | PHI
Eagles' Saquon Barkley: MNF: 101 yards from scrimmage
Barkley took 22 carries for 60 yards while catching all three of his targets for 41 yards in Monday's 10-7 win over the Packers.
Barkley used the Eagles' bye week to fully recover from a minor groin injury suffered at the tail end of a Week 8 win over the Giants. The 28-year-old superstar was stymied on the ground by Green Bay's defense, but he still reached the century mark in total yards with an efficient night as a receiver. Barkley has been an obvious disappointment when comparing his 2025 results to his MVP-caliber campaign last year, but he's still producing a solid fantasy season with 779 total yards and six touchdowns through nine starts. The reigning Super Bowl champions will stick in a primetime slot for a Week 11 matchup against the Lions on Sunday Night Football.

D'Ernest Johnson RB | NE
Patriots' D'Ernest Johnson: Reverts to practice squad
Johnson reverted to the Patriots' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Johnson played six offensive snaps during Sunday's 28-23 win over the Buccaneers, one more than Terrell Jennings, the latter of whom left the game due to a knee injury. Johnson logged one carry for one yard in Week 10, and with Jennings, Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) and TreVeyon Henderson (knee) all listed as limited practice participants Monday, Johnson could be elevated to the Patriots' active roster for Thursday's AFC East tilt against the Jets.
