The Giants signed Gray to their practice squad Monday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Gray is back with the organization that drafted him back in 2023 after spending some time early in the season on the Browns' practice squad. With regular starter Cam Skattebo dealing with a hamstring issue, there's a chance Gray could end up being elevated to the active roster for the Giants' contest at Philadelphia in Week 9.

Saylors (neck) is not expected to practice Wednesday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.

Saylor's neck injury is significant enough that Coach Dan Campbell felt comfortable declaring him doubtful to practice multiple days in advance. The running back couldn't return to Sunday's win over the Vikings because of the injury, and it remains unclear how long he will miss.

Charbonnet was "the first running back getting handoffs" during warmups before Monday's game against the Bears, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Charbonnet is set to see his first action of the season Monday night, and with him first in line during warmups it appears he will jump right into Seattle's starting lineup. While Charbonnet will likely be the first man up in the backfield, he is coming off knee surgery and will be one of four Seahawks running backs available -- Jadarian Price, Emanuel Wilson and George Holani being the others -- so it's unclear exactly what type of workload he will handle in his season debut.

Rodriguez was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate due to a hand injury.

The Jaguars listed two running backs on their first Week 9 injury report, with No. 1 option Bhayshul Tuten (ankle/foot) going down as a non-participant. There's no telling if Tuten is in danger of missing Thursday's contest at Baltimore, but Rodriguez could be in line for more early down work if he's active and the former is inhibited or sidelined. On the season, Rodriguez is averaging 6.7 touches per game.

Tuten was a non-participant at Monday's walkthrough due to ankle and foot injuries.

Tuten is coming off a sterling performance Sunday against the Colts in which he reeled off 159 yards from scrimmage and two total TDs on 18 touches, but he now has a pair of health concerns in tow. The Jaguars may be exercising caution with their No. 1 RB, but his status -- along with backup Chris Rodriguez (hand), who was listed as limited -- will be watched to get a sense of who may be available to the backfield Thursday at Baltimore.

McNichols is getting additional opinions on the foot injury that he suffered Sunday against the Eagles, but there's an expectation that he'll miss multiple months, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

McNichols limped to the locker room in the third quarter of Sunday's game in the third quarter and didn't return. Head coach Dan Quinn told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic on Monday that McNichols has a "mid-foot" injury that may be "serious," and Reed's new report backs up that sentiment. With Jacory Croskey-Merritt out at least three more games while on IR due to a groin issue, Rachaad White and Austin Ekeler are the healthy running backs on the Commanders' active roster.

The Seahawks waived Henry on Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Henry is headed to waivers less than a month after signing with Seattle. The 24-year-old didn't appear in any games during his tenure with the Seahawks and will now look to catch on with another team.

Wilson is welcoming back Zach Charbonnet (knee) and Jadarian Price (chest) to the Seahawks backfield for Monday's game against the Bears, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Seattle cleared Charbonnet to make his season debut on its final Week 8 injury report before the team activated Price from injured reserve Monday, which means the latter is available for his first game action since Week 3. Wilson operated as the Seahawks' lead runner the last four contests, racking up 85 touches for 359 yards from scrimmage and four total TDs. He'll certainly cede some of those reps to the combination of Charbonnet and Price, but the possibility exists that he ends up taking on the most work among the trio if the team eases one or both back in.

The Texans cut Vaughn from the practice squad Monday.

The diminutive running back spent nearly a month with the organization but has been swapped out in favor of fellow RB Joshua Pitsenberger. Vaughn hasn't appeared in a regular-season NFL game since 2024 with the Cowboys.

Head coach Mike LaFleur revealed Monday that Knight is in the concussion protocol following Sunday's overtime win in Dallas, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Knight took a shoulder to the helmet from a Cowboys defender in the third quarter of Sunday's game, and after a visit to the locker room, he was ruled out with a concussion. It marked the second Cardinals RB to exit and not return in Week 8 -- Jeremiyah Love suffered a "new" ankle injury, per LaFleur -- so at the moment Tyler Allgeier is the top healthiest member of the team's backfield.
