Ozigbo is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chargers due to a hamstring injury, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

Ozigbo didn't have a single carry before being forced out of action Sunday, while rookie James Robinson has already exceeded 100 rushing yards. Even if he manages to retake the field against Los Angeles, Ozigbo stands to remain in a depth role.

Swift registered 27 rushing yards and a touchdown on nine carries, adding four receptions for 21 yards during Sunday's 23-22 win against the Falcons.

Though Swift skated to an 8.3 yards-per-carry average with two rushing scores last week in a drubbing of the Jaguars, future Hall of Famer Adrian Peterson still handled over 50 percent of the RB carries during Week 7. Swift has been consistently garnering more involvement in the passing game, out-targeting his veteran mentor by a 5-1 tally Sunday, though it appears Detroit is committed to working in Peterson as a key part of the ground game. The upcoming Week 8 matchup against Indianapolis is prohibitive for Lions backs in general, as the Colts are allowing a 3.5 yards-per-carry average to opposing backs this season with only three rushing scores surrendered.

Wilson (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game at New England, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.

On his third TD of the day, Wilson was tackled awkwardly, had difficulty getting to his feet and eventually needed a cart to get to the locker room. He was the 49ers' clear lead running back, turning 17 carries into 112 yards and two catches (on two targets) into eight yards. If he eventually requires time on the sideline, Wilson will join Raheem Mostert (knee) and Tevin Coleman (knee) as the team's injured running backs. After that trio, San Francisco is left with Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty out of the backfield.

Wilson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots due to an ankle injury, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.

Wilson was enjoying the best game of his career before being carted off in the third quarter. He had 17 carries for 112 yards and three scores. Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty will take over as San Francisco's lead running backs.

Conner carried the ball 20 times for 82 yards in Week 7 against the Titans. He added three receptions for 29 yards.

Conner was heavily involved in the Steelers' offense early on, drawing five carries on the team's first drive. It appeared he had capped that possession with a one-yard rushing score, though it was ultimately called back due to a facemask penalty. One drive later, Conner drew four more carries but was vultured by Benny Snell for a one-yard scamper into the end zone. This game marks the first time since Week 1 that Conner did not score or top 100 yards on the ground. He'll face another stiff test in Week 8 against the Ravens.

Singletary rushed eight times for 29 yards and caught two of five targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 18-10 win over the Jets.

Singletary had eight carries and five targets to Zack Moss's seven carries and three targets, but the latter finished with a 72-47 edge in scrimmage yards. Considering both running backs already cede a large chunk of Buffalo's rushing workload to quarterback Josh Allen -- who led the team with 11 carries for 61 yards in this one -- Singletary can ill afford to be outplayed by Moss. The second-year back out of FAU will look to bounce back in Week 8 against the Patriots.

Henry carried the ball 20 times for 75 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Steelers. He also added two receptions for -3 yards.

Henry was bottled up for large portions of the game by the stingy Steelers' run defense. Even so, he managed to break free for big yardage on a few carries, including gains of 17 and nine yards in the fourth quarter. Most importantly, he also found the end zone for the fourth consecutive game and now has seven touchdowns on the campaign. Henry will draw a more manageable matchup against the Bengals in Week 8 one that should afford him the chance to top 100 yards on the ground once again.

Moss rushed seven times for 47 yards and caught all three of his targets for another 25 yards in Sunday's 18-10 win over the Jets.

Buffalo didn't have a carry by a running back until more than halfway through the second quarter, and that lack of variety allowed New York to focus on stopping the pass en route to a 10-0 lead. It was all Bills from there, but quarterback Josh Allen still ended up leading the team in both rushing attempts (11) and rushing yards (61). On the bright side for Moss, he was far more effective than Devin Singletary, who rushed eight times for 29 yards and caught just two of five targets for 18 yards. It will be tough to rely on Moss from a fantasy standpoint against the Patriots in Week 8 given his limited share of Buffalo's backfield touches, but the rookie third-round pick out of Utah has the potential to grow his role at Singletary's expense moving forward if the latter's struggles persist.

Williams carried the ball 19 times for 77 yards and one touchdown in Week 7 against the Texans. He also added four receptions for 37 yards.

Williams took on the majority of the backfield work, accounting for 19 of the 24 carries given to Packers' running backs. He wasn't particularly effective on the ground, with his longest run of the day going for 13 yards late in the fourth quarter. However, he was more effective as a receiver, picking up chunk gains of 17 and 15 yards. Perhaps most importantly, it was clear that Williams was the lead back in the absence of Aaron Jones (calf). If Jones is forced to miss more time, Williams should in line for plenty of volume in Week 8 against Minnesota.

Gibson carried 20 times for 128 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 25-3 win over the Cowboys.

Gibson gashed the struggling Dallas defense for 6.4 yards per carry while scoring a 12-yard touchdown in the first quarter. He failed to haul in his only target in the passing game, but that was mostly due to the fact that his team played from ahead for most of the game and was content to keep the ball on the ground for the most part. Gibson could receive a similar workload in what should be a competitive game against the Giants in Week 9 following the WFT's bye, and he'll look to add to his current string of four touchdowns in the last six games.
