Gore signed to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

The 25-year-old spent training camp in Los Angeles and was let go at roster cutdowns, but he'll receive another chance with the organization. Gore went undrafted out of Louisiana-Monroe in 2019 and is still looking to make his NFL debut.

Wilkins had eight carries for 28 yards in Thursday's win over Tennessee. He played on 14 of the offense's 70 snaps, compared to 17 snaps for Jonathan Taylor and 39 snaps for Nyheim Hines.

Taylor got the starting assignment at running back, but the backfield again was a timeshare with Hines getting the most snaps after a few big plays. With Taylor failing to secure the majority of playing time after being given the first chance after Marlon Mack was injured, the Indy backfield remains unclear about how playing time will be divided heading into Week 11.

Homer (knee/thumb) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's injury report, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.

Homer was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Rams due to a foot injury, so it's encouraging to see that the Seahawks already believe he's ready to resume practicing. With Chris Carson (foot) still sidelined and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) limited, it's possible that Homer could get another chance to draw increased usage if he's healthy enough to face the Cardinals on Thursday.

Drake (ankle) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Drake managed to play through his lingering ankle injury during Sunday's 32-30 win over the Bills, in which he logged 16 carries for 100 yards -- his second 100-yard rushing game of the year -- and caught his only target for nine yards. His effectiveness upon returning to action and the fact that he wasn't held out of Monday's practice entirely seem to bode well for Drake's chances of suiting up in Seattle on Thursday.

Evans (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday.

Evans will return to practice this week, and if everything goes well, he could be ready for this Sunday's clash against the Ravens. He officially has 21 days to be evaluated before the team needs to move him to the active roster. It's unclear what his role will be upon return because Jeremy McNichols has been a solid change-of-pace back behind Derrick Henry of late.

Coach Matt Rhule said Monday that he's hopeful about the chances of McCaffrey (shoulder) retaking the field against the Lions on Sunday, Kristen Balboni of the Panthers' official site reports.

Optimism aside, Rhule also said that McCaffrey remains week-to-week and that he's heard "nothing different" about the star running back's recovery from an AC joint injury, according to Steve Reed of the Associated Press. Similarly, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that McCaffrey is unlikely to face Detroit and that the Panthers haven't ruled out a multi-week absence. That said, Rhule is at least leaving the door open for a tentative Week 11 return. McCaffrey couldn't practice in any capacity last week, so if he's able to resume handling some amount of reps in the coming days, he at least could have a shot at suiting up Sunday.

Snell recorded three carries for 12 yards in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Bengals.

Even though the Steelers maintained a considerable lead throughout the second half, Snell saw minimal work once again as the team elected to rely on its starters down the stretch. As a result, the 2019 fourth-rounder was on the field for just four offensive snaps late in the game. Snell was efficient as he averaged 4.0 yards per carry, but he's been mainly relegated to special teams in recent weeks.

Dallas rushed twice for eight yards and caught two of three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Rams.

Dallas was expected to take on a large workload once again because Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) were inactive, but instead Alex Collins ended up leading the Seattle backfield in snaps and touches. This may have been Dallas' final opportunity for a significant workload, as Carson is expected to return this Thursday against the Cardinals.

Williams ran the ball eight times for 30 yards and caught three of four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's victory over the Jaguars.

After sitting out Week 9, Williams returned to action and saw only half the touches he averaged while serving as the lead back in Weeks 7 and 8 with Aaron Jones sidelined, but he still managed to record double-digit touches for the fifth time in eight games. There will be a cap on Williams' upside whenever he and Jones are both healthy, but with 532 yards from scrimmage and 26 receptions on the season, Williams has proven worthy of a roster spot in most fantasy leagues, particularly those that utilize PPR scoring.

McCaffrey (shoulder) is not expected to suit up against the Lions on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The 24-year-old running back appears set to miss a second straight contest due to an AC joint injury, an event that would likely once again thrust Mike Davis into a three-down role in Carolina's backfield. McCaffrey wasn't able to practice in any capacity last week, so it would represent tangible progress if he's able to log at least some amount of on-field activity leading up to Sunday's contest against Detroit, even if he is ultimately forced to miss the game. With Teddy Bridgewater (knee) considered day-to-day due to an MCL sprain and also in apparent danger of missing Week 11, a number of key positions for the Panthers' offense are currently in flux.
