Mattison rushed seven times for 18 yards in Sunday's 42-30 win over the Lions.

This game was a true shootout, but Mattison still managed 21 of a possible 72 snaps on offense (29 percent). While he was unproductive in the role, especially compared to Dalvin Cook's 5.7 YPC on 25 rushes, his rotation in the offense looks secure going forward. The workhorse role that awaits if anything happens to Cook makes Mattison one of the top fantasy handcuffs, and there's a chance he sees garbage-time work in Week 8 if the Vikings can blow out the Redskins.

Sanders rushed six times for 21 yards and caught all three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 37-10 loss to the Cowboys.

The Eagles trailed nearly the entire game, but they still refused to abandon the run, as their running backs totaled 24 carries compared to Carson Wentz's 26 throws. Sanders finished as No. 3 in the team's pecking order, though, since Jordan Howard had 11 rushes while Boston Scott recorded seven. There is some solace in that Sanders led the backfield with three targets and 33 of a possible 61 offensive snaps, but his lack of productivity lately -- 2.3 YPC over the last three weeks -- could prove costly moving forward.

Hill had no carries or targets in Sunday's win over the Seahawks.

Sunday marked a bottoming out of Hill's role in the offense as he had no touches for the first time all year and played a season-low four snaps. Hill is still active on special teams and had 21 kick return yards but he has seemingly lost his spot in the backfield rotation. Hill and the Ravens are on a bye before returning to action Nov. 11 against the Patriots.

Edwards had eight carries for 35 yards in Sunday's win over the Seahawks.

The second-year runner saw his highest carry count since Week 1 and responded with a strong outing. Edwards averaged 4.4 yards per carry and cracked the 30-yard mark for the second week in a row. Still, Mark Ingram is still the No.1 running back in Baltimore and Lamar Jackson's increased usage in the run game of late limits the amount of available carries for Edwards. The Ravens are on a bye in Week 8 before returning to action Week 9 against the Patriots.

Harris logged four carries for 12 yards in Monday night's 33-0 win over the Jets.

Harris' Monday night backfield appearance didn't come until late in the blowout, but he did start off with a nice 13-yard run on his first NFL regular-season carry. The 2018 third-rounder isn't a fantasy lineup option for now, but if lead back Sony Michel misses time at any point this season, Harris would likely move into a meaningful role in the Patriots offense.

Bolden carried once for two yards and caught all four of his targets for 39 yards in Monday night's 33-0 win over the Jets.

Bolden, who was on the field for 18 of the Patriots' 82 snaps on offense in the contest, saw his three-game TD streak snapped Monday, but he still managed to make a mark as a pass catcher while serving as a complementary option behind Sony Michel and James White. Whether he maintains a similar role in this coming Sunday's game against the Browns likely hinges on the availability of Rex Burkhead (foot), who has missed three straight games.

Harris is listed as active Monday against the Jets, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

Suiting up for just the second time this season, Harris may be a part of the game plan in the absence of Rex Burkhead (foot). That said, Sony Michel, James White and Brandon Bolden are all available, too, so Harris may be contained to special-team duty, as he was in his other appearance Week 3.

Anderson had a workout with the Raiders on Monday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Anderson began the season with the Lions but was let go after rushing 16 times for 43 yards through the first two weeks of the season. The 28-year-old continues to look for a new team after providing a boost for the Rams in the playoffs last season.

Wilson ran the ball five times for 20 yards in Sunday's 9-0 win over Washington.

Wilson received his first carries since Week 3 (when he filled in for Tevin Coleman) after being limited to special teams duties against the Rams last week. The 23-year-old appears to have flipped roles with fellow backup Raheem Mostert, as the latter was limited to snaps on special teams. If Wilson continues to hold that third spot on the depth chart, there would be potential for touchdowns after he recorded four scores over the span of two games while serving as the team's goal-line back. The North Texas product's value will be touchdown-dependent in a limited role against the Panthers on Sunday.

Mostert (knee) was cleared for action Sunday, but was limited to just 11 special teams snaps in a 9-0 win over the Redskins.

Jeff Wilson Jr. took over Mostert's role as the team's third rushing option Sunday. The 27-year-old's absence could be related to him dealing with a balky knee and the rainstorm that destroyed field conditions in Washington. Mostert's value was already limited with both Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida healthy, but he has virtually no fantasy value if he is being limited to just special teams heading into a Week 8 matchup with Carolina.
