  • J.K. Dobbins RB | DEN

    Ravens' J.K. Dobbins: Solid effort despite brief exit

    Dobbins rushed 11 times for 77 yards and a touchdown and failed to bring in his only target in the Ravens' 27-13 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Dobbins was forced briefly from the game in the second half with a chest injury, and although he returned to the contest, he did not log any additional touches. The rookie put some good work in for the day, however, scoring his seventh touchdown of the season on a two-yard run in the first quarter and also boosting his overall numbers with a game-long 25-yard run. Dobbins will head into a Week 17 road battle versus the vulnerable Bengals defense with at least 70 rushing yards in three of his past five contests and a five-game rushing TD streak.

  • Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Continues TD binge vs. Steelers

    Taylor carried 18 times for 74 yards and two touchdowns while failing to bring in his lone target during Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Steelers.

    Taylor averaged a respectable 4.1 yards per carry against a tough defensive unit while adding a pair of short touchdown runs in the first half. He was uncharacteristically quiet as a pass catcher, which capped his overall production, but his five touchdowns in the last three games are surely keeping fantasy managers happy. Taylor now has 11 total touchdowns on the season and will look to finish the regular season on a high note in next Sunday's inviting matchup with the Jaguars.

  • Nick Chubb RB | HOU

    Browns' Nick Chubb: Finds end zone in loss

    Chubb rushed 11 times for 28 yards and a touchdown while catching all five of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Jets.

    Chubb was bottled up in the first half, mustering only six yards on eight carries as Cleveland fell into a 13-3 hole. The team largely abandoned the run while playing catch-up after halftime, but Chubb managed to salvage his day with a one-yard touchdown late in the third quarter. He also set a new season high with five catches. Chubb should see a heavier workload on the ground in Week 17 as the Browns try to break a 17-year playoff drought against Pittsburgh.

  • Bears' David Montgomery: Find end zone again

    Montgomery rushed 23 times for 95 yards and a touchdown and caught two passes for 26 yards in the Bears' 41-17 victory over the Jaguars on Sunday.

    While the game was competitive, the Bears had the ball deep in the red zone on three occasions. On two of those, Montgomery wasn't utilized, denying him opportunities for a score. Regardless, he's now accounted for at least 100 scrimmage yards and a touchdown in each of his last five games, and he'll have a favorable Week 17 matchup at home against the Packers.

  • J.K. Dobbins RB | DEN

    Ravens' J.K. Dobbins: Back in the game

    Dobbins who exited Sunday's game against the Giants with a chest injury, was able to return to the contest, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Now that he's back in the mix, Dobbins will resume sharing the Ravens' Week 16 running back duties with Gus Edwards.

    Ravens' J.K. Dobbins: Leaves Sunday's game

    Dobbins was forced out of Sunday's game against the Giants with a chest injury.

    Prior to his exit from the contest, Dobbins logged 11 carries for 77 yards and a TD. In his absence, Gus Edwards will head the Ravens' Week 16 backfield.

  • Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott: Returns to lineup

    Elliott (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    After taking off one game to rest a bruised calf, Elliott is back in the lineup, as expected. His workload remains to be seen, though, after Tony Pollard ripped off 132 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns Week 15 versus the 49ers. There's a chance Elliott yields some reps to Pollard, meaning the former could fall short of his 19.7 touches per game this season.

  • Joshua Kelley RB | TEN

    Chargers' Joshua Kelley: Deemed healthy Week 16 scratch

    Kelley (coach's decision) is inactive heading into Sunday's game against the Broncos, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.

    Los Angeles will roll with Kalen Ballage and Justin Jackson as secondary backs behind Austin Ekeler during a Week 16 AFC West clash. Kelley's 3.2 yards-per-carry average is uninspiring, while his two lost fumbles on the season motivate the Chargers' coaching staff to search elsewhere for more reliable options.

  • Matt Breida RB | SF

    Dolphins' Matt Breida: Uninvolved on offense

    Breida did not register an offensive snap during Saturday's 26-25 win over the Raiders.

    Breida had 12 carries for 86 yards against the Patriots last week, but with Myles Gaskin now back in the lineup, his opportunities have completely evaporated. Salvon Ahmed and Lynn Bowden both worked behind Gaskin in the backfield, while Breida handled just 10 snaps on special teams.

  • Royce Freeman RB | CHI

    Broncos' Royce Freeman: Ready to play Sunday

    Freeman (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    The 24-year-old was considered questionable with the hip issue but is good to go Sunday. Freeman will serve as the backup to Melvin Gordon with Phillip Lindsay (hip/knee) on injured reserve.
