Roschon Johnson RB | CHI
Bears' Roschon Johnson: Handles five touches against Jets
Johnson rushed four times for 16 yards in Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets. He added one catch for seven yards on one target.
The Bears thoroughly dominated the Jets in time of possession and ran a whopping 93 offensive plays to New York's 34. Johnson saw 10 snaps on offense, as Kyle Monangai (thumb) and D'Andre Swift, who dealt with a knee injury during the practice week, combined to rush 45 times for 204 yards and two touchdowns. Johnson would be in line for additional work if Monangai needs to miss any game action.

Tyler Badie RB | DEN
Broncos' Tyler Badie: Helps as runner, receiver, returner Sunday
Badie carried twice for seven yards, caught both of his targets for 32 yards, ran in a two-point conversion and returned one kickoff for 21 yards in a loss to San Francisco in Week 4.
Badie chipped in for the Broncos in multiple facets. The highlights of his performance were a 25-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter and a two-point conversion on a run up the middle in the fourth quarter. Badie doesn't have much fantasy value given the low volume of touches he gets on a weekly basis, so it would likely take injuries ahead of him on the RB depth chart for Badie to become an intriguing waiver-wire addition.

Demond Claiborne RB | MIN
Vikings' Demond Claiborne: Quiet outing in win
Claiborne carried the ball three times for 12 yards during Minnesota's win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Claiborne continued to serve a limited role behind Aaron Jones even with Jordan Mason (thumb) on injured reserve. Claiborne will look to be more involved offensively during next week's matchup versus the Saints.

Bijan Robinson RB | ATL
Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Another dominant effort Monday
Robinson rushed 19 times for 145 yards and two touchdowns and brought in one of two targets for two yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.
Fresh off a 194-yard, two-touchdown effort against the Packers that kicked off the Week 3 slate back on Sept. 24, a well-rested Robinson put together a very similar performance, albeit with a slight reduction in workload. Robinson set the tone just three plays into the contest, capping off the opening possession with a 59-yard touchdown run down the left side of the field. He came back just before the opening period ending with a four-yard scoring rush, and he then ceded three other red-zone opportunities in the second half to backfield mate Brian Robinson. Bijan already has 494 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the ground through his first four contests, and the switch to Michael Penix at quarterback has led to the star running back's top two efforts to date this season. Robinson next takes aim at a tough Ravens defense in a Week 5 home matchup Sunday night.

George Holani RB | SEA
Seahawks' George Holani: Totals 20 yards in Week 4 win
Holani rushed seven times for 18 yards in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Chargers. He added one catch for two yards on one target.
Even with Jadarian Price (chest) on injured reserve, Holani played a distant second fiddle to Emanuel Wilson, who rushed 21 times for 81 yards and a touchdown. Wilson also turned four targets into three catches for 30 yards and a second score. Holani has minimal fantasy value, especially with Zach Charbonnet (knee) due back in the near future.

Alvin Kamara RB | NO
Saints' Alvin Kamara: Exits briefly but returns to Monday's game
Kamara temporarily exited Monday's game against the Falcons due to a knee issue but has since returned.
Kamara appeared to hurt his knee in the third quarter and headed to the medical tent. The veteran running back exited the tent, tested out his knee on the sideline, then briefly returned to the tent, but he was able to re-enter the contest before the end of the period. Kamara is serving as New Orleans' lead running back in the absence of Travis Etienne (ankle) and scored his first touchdown of the campaign earlier in Monday's contest.

Kaelon Black RB | SF
49ers' Kaelon Black: Inefficient in Week 4 win
Black turned six carries into 13 yards during the 49ers' 24-14 win over the Broncos on Sunday.
Black's longest carry of the day went for five yards, with four of his other touches going for two yards or fewer. With Christian McCaffrey clearly leading the backfield, Black's workload will be volatile on a week-to-week basis and dependant on game script. The 49ers will hit the road for Week 5 in an NFC West showdown against the 3-1 Seahawks.

Seth McGowan RB | IND
Colts' Seth McGowan: Seven touches in Week 4 victory
McGowan turned six carries into 31 yards and caught one of two targets for seven yards during Sunday's 30-13 win over the Commanders in London. He also returned four kickoffs for 102 yards.
McGowan actually saw most of his offensive output in the second quarter with four carries for 18 yards and his seven-yard catch. Most of his on-field production figures to come on special teams as a returner, but the rookie seventh-rounder would be thrust into RB1 duties if Jonathan Taylor were to miss time. The Colts will hit the road for Week 5 against the Steelers this Sunday.

Austin Ekeler RB | WAS
Commanders' Austin Ekeler: Tallies 40 yards in 2026 debut
Ekeler turned four carries into 29 yards and added an 11-yard catch on two targets during the Commanders' 30-13 loss to the Colts on Sunday in London.
Ekeler signed with the Commanders on Tuesday and was immediately involved in the offense Sunday due to the absence of Rachaad White (shoulder). Ekeler's 17 offensive snaps were second-most on the Commanders behind Jacory Croskey-Merritt (29) and ahead of rookie Kaytron Allen (12). However, despite logging only four carries, Ekeler's 29 rushing yards were most among Washington's running backs and second on the team behind QB Marcus Mariota (35). Given Ekeler's efficiency in limited touches, he could remain involved in the gameplan for Week 5 against the Giants even if White is cleared to return.
-
Justice Hill RB | BAL
Ravens' Justice Hill: Three touches in Week 4 win
Hill rushed one time for three yards in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Titans. He added two catches for 22 yards on three targets.
Hill continues to handle change-of-pace and passing-down work behind Derrick Henry out of the Baltimore backfield. Across four games, Hill has accumulated 60 rushing yards on 14 carries and five catches for 44 yards on six targets. Hill's role would likely only expand in the event the Ravens are chasing points on the scoreboard or if Henry suffers an injury.
