Nyheim Miller-Hines RB | NO
Colts' Nyheim Hines: Just 34 total yards Sunday
Hines had five carries for 14 yards and one reception for 20 yards on three targets in Sunday's win over Tennessee.
Hines struggled a bit with a dropped pass and fumble (which the Colts recovered). Hines is still the No. 2 running back as he played 16 snaps on offense compared to 11 snaps for Jordan Wilkins and 38 for starter Marlon Mack.

Jordan Wilkins RB | CLE
Colts' Jordan Wilkins: Scores TD in Sunday's win
Wilkins had four carries for 30 yards, including an 18-yard touchdown, in Sunday's win over Tennessee.
Wilkins played just 11 snaps on offense compared to 38 for starter Marlon Mack and 16 for Nyheim Hines. Wilkins is still the clear No. 3 back, but could get more of a look with Hines fumbling on a carry (which the Colts recovered) and dropping a pass.

Latavius Murray RB | BUF
Vikings' Latavius Murray: Just four carries Sunday
Murray had four carries for five yards in Sunday's loss to Chicago.
Minnesota's running game struggled as the team gained just 22 yards on 14 carries. However, the bigger worry for Murray's fantasy value is that he played just six snaps on offense compared to 59 snaps for Dalvin Cook. With Cook back to full speed after missing time with a hamstring issue, Murray may move back to a much reduced role.

Dare Ogunbowale RB | LV
Buccaneers' Dare Ogunbowale: Plenty of work as kick returner
Ogunbowale returned seven kickoffs for 137 yards in the Buccaneers' 38-35 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
The 24-year-old rookie was promoted earlier in the week from the practice squad in the wake of Shaun Wilson's placement on injured reserve with a shoulder injury, and he did a solid job filling the latter's role on kickoff returns. Ogunbowale could potentially continue serving in the same capacity for what remains of the season, although he could also find himself inactive if Jacquizz Rodgers is tabbed to fill the role once Ronald Jones II (hamstring) returns to action.

Jacquizz Rodgers RB | NO
Buccaneers' Jacquizz Rodgers: Trio of carries in loss
Rodgers rushed three times for 15 yards and failed to come up with any of his three targets in the Buccaneers' 38-35 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Rodgers once again played a complementary role behind lead back Peyton Barber in the continued absence of Ronald Jones II (hamstring). One week after a career-high eight receptions, Rodgers failed to come up with any of his targets, lessening his already modest fantasy impact. Outside of his Week 10 outlier performance, Rodgers remains a middling fantasy option in all formats and could potentially revert to inactive status upon Jones' return to health.

Dalvin Cook RB | DAL
Vikings' Dalvin Cook: Logs career high for snaps in dud
Cook played a career-high 59 snaps in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Bears.
Cook managed just 12 yards on nine carries and lost two yards on three receptions, coughing up a fumble along the way to solidify his hideous performance. The dud outing does at least come with a dose of good news, as the second-year back held a 59-6 snap advantage over Latavius Murray. The huge gap in playing time suggests better days are ahead, starting with a Week 12 home game against Green Bay on Sunday. The Packers rank 20th in yards allowed per carry (4.6) and 26th in rushing yards allowed per game (126.1), with only six teams giving up more rushing touchdowns (10).

Doug Martin RB | LV
Raiders' Doug Martin: Set for further evaluation
Martin will undergo further evaluation Monday after tweaking his ankle in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Cardinals, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. "I thought it was going to be one of those, 'Tweak it and just run on it and be back good again,' but it just kept lingering," Martin said of the injury.
Martin hurt his ankle in the first half and didn't return, finishing with 52 yards on 10 carries and reeling in his lone target for six yards. While Martin was sidelined after the break, the Raiders leaned on DeAndre Washington (12 carries for 39 yards) as their primary runner, while Jalen Richard (11 carries for 61 yards, three catches for 32 yards) also benefited from a heightened role on the ground. More clarity on Martin's health situation should come after he meets with doctors Monday, but his status is tentatively iffy for the Raiders' next game Nov. 25 in Baltimore.

Dalvin Cook RB | DAL
Vikings' Dalvin Cook: Turns in dud against Bears
Cook gained just 12 yards on nine carries Sunday against the Bears. He lost two yards on his three receptions and also lost a fumble in the 25-20 loss.
Cook had no room to operate against the Bears' stout run defense, turning in a performance that would hover around the zero-point mark in almost any format. The only positive for his fantasy owners is that the dynamic back exited the contest healthy. Offensive coordinator John DeFilippo vouched for Cook's health earlier this week, so we should expect the 23-year-old to suit up in an important matchup against the Packers on Sunday.

Corey Clement RB | ARI
Eagles' Corey Clement: Just four touches in loss
Clement rushed twice for 11 yards and caught both of his targets for four additional yards in Sunday's 48-7 loss to New Orleans.
Clement saw his fewest carries all season as Josh Adams handled the bulk of the backfield work, which was already scant because the Eagles fell behind by three scores early in the second quarter. The Wisconsin product has not surpassed 22 yards in any of his last four games and likely isn't going to see an increase in chances with Adams playing well. If the 24-year-old has a silver lining, it's that Philadelphia heads into a favorable matchup for running backs against the Giants at home Week 12.

Brandon Bolden RB | LV
Dolphins' Brandon Bolden: Yet to log snap on offense
Bolden has not logged an offensive snap this season entering the Dolphins' Week 12 matchup against the Colts.
Kenyan Drake and Frank Gore have done a nice job of avoiding the injury bug this year, so the Dolphins haven't had any need to turn to Bolden on offense. With fourth-round rookie Kalen Ballage the next man up behind them, Bolden faces steep odds of attaining fantasy relevance at any point the rest of the season.
