  • D'Onta Foreman RB | CLE

    D'Onta Foreman: Joins Titans' practice squad

    Foreman signed with Tennessee's practice squad Monday, Paul Kuharsky of The Midday 180 reports.

    Foreman will provide some extra running back depth for the Titans franchise. He has appeared in 11 NFL games, all with the Texans, rushing 85 times for 326 yards and two touchdowns.

  • Kenjon Barner: Reverts to practice squad

    Barner reverted back to Tampa Bay's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.

    Barner suited up for the Buccaneers in Week 3 against Denver but played only four snaps, all on special teams. He'll hope to earn another promotion to the 53-man roster as the season unfolds.

  • JaMycal Hasty: Reverts to practice squad, for now

    Hasty reverted back to San Francisco's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.

    Hasty might shuffle right back up to the 53-man roster for the upcoming game against the Eagles depending on how the injuries to the running backs in front of him shake out. Raheem Mostert (knee) and Jerick McKinnon (ribs) are both questionable, while Tevin Coleman (knee) is on IR, so Hasty could be called upon to back up Jeff Wilson if neither of the first two guys suits up.

  • LeVante Bellamy: Sent back down to practice squad

    Bellamy reverted back to Denver's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.

    Bellamy was called up for the Week 4 loss to Tampa Bay. He played 18 special-teams snaps and recorded a pair of tackles but didn't see the field on offense.

  • Vikings' Alexander Mattison: Eight carries Sunday

    Mattison had eight carries for 27 yards in Sunday's 31-30 loss to Tennessee.

    Mattison played on 16 of 65 snaps as he still had a decent role even on a day when Dalvin Cook had 181 yards rushing. Mattison had 10 touches Week 1 before just four touches last week, so his role off the bench will be inconsistent, but he has a chance to be involved enough for value in deeper formats, even when Cook is healthy.

  • Jonathan Ward: Reverts to practice squad

    Ward was reverted back to the practice squad Monday after playing 14 special-teams snaps in Sunday's loss to the Lions, Mason Kern of SI.com reports.

    Teams can promote players from the practice squad and send them back down twice this season, and this was Ward's first reversion. The running back is buried deep down the depth chart, so he's unlikely to see much playing time on offense even if he gets called back up to the 53-man roster.

  • 49ers' Jerick McKinnon: Has bruised ribs, is day-to-day

    McKinnon has been diagnosed with a rib contusion in the aftermath of Sunday's 36-9 road win against the Giants, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    With Raheem Mostert (knee) inactive and Tevin Coleman (knee) on injured reserve, the 49ers turned to McKinnon as their lead running back Week 3. Receiving 62 percent of the snaps on offense, McKinnon accounted for 17 touches, 77 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown. After the contest, though, it was revealed that he suffered a rib injury, which has been clarified as a bruise and leaves him day-to-day. Per Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News, Mostert may be able to practice Wednesday, so there could be new competition for RB reps soon. Aside from McKinnon on Sunday, Jeff Wilson turned 15 touches into 69 yards from scrimmage and two TDs, while practice-squad call-up JaMycal Hasty had three touches for 19 total yards.

  • 49ers' Raheem Mostert: Will be under evaluation Wednesday

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Mostert (knee) will be looked at Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    The 49ers formally begin Week 4 prep with practice Wednesday, at which point the team is aiming to evaluate Mostert, among many of his injured teammates. The backfield is minus both Mostert and Tevin Coleman (knee, IR) at the moment, which left Jerick McKinnon (17 touches, 77 yards from scrimmage, one TD), Jeff Wilson (15, 69, two) and even JaMycal Hasty (three, 18, zero) to cover for their absences this past Sunday against the Giants. McKinnon himself injured his ribs in the contest, so Wilson and Hasty are the healthiest RB options for San Francisco.

  • Justice Hill RB | BAL

    Ravens' Justice Hill: Healthy scratch Monday

    Hill (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    A thigh injury kept Hill out of the first two games this season, but he's healthy and will still sit out. Mark Ingram and J.K. Dobbins are expected to lead the backfield while Gus Edwards rotates in.

  • Titans' Darrynton Evans: Three touches in debut

    Evans recorded three carries for nine yards Week 3 against Minnesota.

    Evans made his NFL debut and split duties as the team's backup running back with Jeremy McNichols. He had gains of four, two and three yards, making no notable impact on the game. However, the fact that he quickly earned a role in the Titans offense is encouraging for his potential in the event that Derrick Henry is sidelined at any point.
