Breida had three carries for nine yards during Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Seahawks. He also secured all three of his targets for 39 yards.

Breida enjoyed his most productive game of the season Sunday, mostly doing damage in the passing game, but he once again worked behind Myles Gaskin (10 carries, four targets). The former 49er has yet to play 25 percent of offensive snaps in a game through four weeks with Miami.

Dillon had one carry for three yards in Monday's victory over the Falcons.

Dillon got a chance to run the ball after not taking even one carry in Week 3, but his role remained minimal, as he was on the field for just three plays on offense. It's possible the Packers could get him more involved coming out of their Week 5 bye, but with fellow backs Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams both getting the job done there just aren't many snaps up for grabs.

Dobbins had five carries for 16 yards and one catch for two yards Sunday against the Football Team.

The rookie was more involved than he had been in recent weeks, seeing more than two carries for the first time since the season opener. Still, it was just five carries for Dobbins on 21 snaps while Lamar Jackson, Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards all saw at least seven attempts. Edwards' rushes seem to be coming at Dobbins' expense as he has out-carried Dobbins in three straight weeks. It's no longer just that Baltimore's deep running back rotation puts a cap on Dobbins' carry ceiling, it's also that Dobbins may be at the bottom of the pecking order for carries right now. The Ravens host the Bengals in Week 5.

Williams rushed eight times for 10 yards and caught all eight of his targets for 95 yards in Monday night's 30-16 win over the Falcons.

Williams stepped up as a pass catcher with top options Davante Adams (hamstring) and Allen Lazard (abdomen) both sidelined for the Packers. The tailback impressed with a couple long catches along the sideline, helping him post career highs in both receptions and receiving yards Monday. Williams also nearly scored from a goal-line carry early, but his production nonetheless was rather admirable and played a big part in continuing Green Bay's unbeaten start heading into its bye week.

Jones rushed 15 times for 71 yards and caught all five of his targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 30-16 win over the Falcons.

Jones started the scoring with a wide-open, six-yard catch just under five minutes into the first quarter. That play set the tone for what would become a season high in receptions for Jones, which took place on a night Green Bay was missing top wideouts Davante Adams (hamstring) and Allen Lazard (abdomen). Along with his contributions through the air, Jones was his ever efficient self on the ground, slashing his way to a fourth straight game of over 65 yards and 4.0 yards per carry. With six touchdowns on the season as well, Jones is established as one of the league's best all-purpose tailbacks and enters the Packers' bye week on the back of a stellar start.

Barner reverted to the Buccaneers' practice squad Monday, according to the NFL transaction log.

Barner left the team's contest early after suffering a concussion. Prior to exiting the game, he had logged one target and also had a kickoff return for 33 yards.

Edwards-Helaire rushed 16 times for 64 yards and caught all three of his targets for 27 yards in Monday night's 26-10 win over the Patriots.

Edwards-Helaire again made a few splash plays while commanding nearly 20 touches. The rookie hasn't really busted free on the ground since his 138-yard debut, which was also the last time he found the end zone, but Edwards-Helaire has still averaged nearly 100 all-purpose yards while hauling in at least three passes in three straight outings. With great versatility in an explosive offense, Edwards-Helaire is a consistent producer who's bound to repay fantasy managers with even bigger outings down the road, giving him excellent value ahead of the Week 5 game against the Raiders.

Harris (finger) rushed 17 times for 100 yards in the Patriots' 26-10 loss to the Chiefs on Monday night.

Harris essentially was the lone bright spot for the Patriots in the double-digit loss, with his 41-yard run serving as a game-high figure. The 2019 third-round pick was making his season debut after being activated off injured reserve, and even though he gained a modest 59 yards on his other 16 carries, he was still the most effective runner of the night for New England. With Sony Michel (quadriceps) on injured reserve for the moment, Harris may have an extended opportunity to show what he can do in coming weeks.

Ward reverted back to Arizona's practice squad Monday according to the NFL transaction log.

Ward played 11 special-teams snaps and recorded an assisted tackle in Week 4 against the Panthers. It marked the second consecutive game that Ward was active, though if he is called back up from the practice squad, he must remain on the roster for the remainder of the campaign.

Ollison (coach's decision) is inactive for the Falcons' Week 4 matchup against the Packers.

Ollison was active for the team's Week 3 contest against the Bears, appearing only on special teams. However, he's again the odd man out in the Falcons' backfield. Active in his place will be Todd Gurley, Brian Hill and Ito Smith.
