Goodson (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Goodson managed to practice in limited fashion Friday after being sidelined Wednesday and Thursday. Even if he returns from a two-week absence Sunday, Goodson wouldn't be expected to contribute much as one of the backups to Jonathan Taylor, along with DJ Giddens and possibly practice squad running back Ameer Abdullah.

Haskins (chest) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts after practicing fully Friday.

After logging six carries and a catch in Week 6's win over Miami, Haskins popped up on the Chargers' injury report Thursday but was listed as a full participant at that day's practice. With the running back now questionable after another uncapped session a day later, Haskins' status is worth tracking ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. If he's limited or sidelined versus Indianapolis, added touches would be available for Kimani Vidal (who was the team's starter versus the Dolphins en route to logging 18 carries and three catches). Meanwhile, Nyheim Hines and Amar Johnson are possible practice-squad elevations ahead of Week 7 action.

Jacobs (illness/calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Arizona despite upgrading to full practice participation Friday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Fantasy managers would rather see the injury designation removed entirely, but an upgrade to full participation, despite the addition of a calf concern to the injury report, is the second-best sign. Jacobs was limited Wednesday and Thursday due to an illness, never missing practice entirely, so there shouldn't be any issues in terms of mental preparation. He'll likely be ready for his normal workload Sunday, after piling up 307 total yards and four TDs over the past two games.

Irving (foot/shoulder) didn't practice Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

The Buccaneers have been slow to rule out injured players all season, but coach Todd Bowles did acknowledge Monday that Irving is unlikely to play this week. Rachaad White is preparing for another start Monday at Detroit.

Rodriguez (calf) practiced fully Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Dallas, Commanders writer Ben Standig reports.

Rodriguez practiced for the first time since Week 5 prep as he tended to a calf injury the last two weeks. Friday's uncapped session likely indicates that he's close to 100 percent, but it's unclear if he'll be able to carve out much of a role behind starter Jacory Croskey-Merritt and complementary option Jeremy McNichols in the Commanders backfield this weekend. Rodriguez logged just one offensive snap during Monday's loss to the Bears, failing to see a touch for the first time in his four appearances this season.

Homer (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Homer remains on injured reserve, so Chicago would have to make an official move of adding him back to the active roster for Homer to be eligible to play Sunday. He logged three full practices during the week, so Homer may actually be healthier than lead back D'Andre Swift (groin), who is listed as questionable after being limited in practice Thursday and Friday.

Kamara (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Chicago, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Kamara even progressed to full practice participation Friday, setting him up for this usual workload come Sunday, although Kendre Miller has gotten more involved in recent weeks for reasons seemingly unrelated to Kamara's health. The 30-year-old RB took 62 percent of snaps in last week's loss to New England, with 15 touches for 76 total yards.

Swift (groin) is listed as questionable but told reporters Friday that he'll play against the Saints on Sunday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Swift also clarified that he suffered the groin injury during Sunday's 25-24 win over Washington. He was a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday, but he said it was a matter of maintenance rather than not being capable of doing more. For what it's worth, Swift previously played through questionable tags Week 3 (quad) and Week 4 (hip), taking 34 total touches over the two-game stretch. He hasn't missed a game due to injury since Week 7 of 2022, back when he was with the Lions (and missed multiple games in each of his first three NFL seasons).

Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints after a limited practice Friday.

The Bears added Swift to their injury report Thursday as a limited participant, with coach Ben Johnson telling reporters Friday that the running back's groin injury wasn't suffered during practice and isn't anything new. It thus sounds like Swift tweaked a preexisting injury, although this is the first time he's been listed with a groin issue in 2025 (he was listed with a quad injury for Week 3 and a hip injury for Week 4). Regardless of the specifics, Swift's fantasy managers should have a backup plan in case he's deemed inactive ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. Rookie Kyle Monangai has been Chicago's No. 2 RB all season, but Roschon Johnson also should have a role if Swift doesn't play, and Travis Homer (knee) may soon be activated from injured reserve.

Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Friday that he's already decided between Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard as the lead runner for Sunday's game against the Jets but won't reveal his plan, Steve Reed of The Associated Press reports.

Hubbard missed the previous two games due to a calf injury but has been cleared to return after practicing this week. In Hubbard's absence, Dowdle became one of a handful of running backs in NFL history to exceed 230 yards from scrimmage and score a touchdown in consecutive games. The recent success makes Dowdle at least a slight favorite to lead Carolina's backfield Week 7, though not necessarily beyond that.
