Williams rushed the ball 29 times for 87 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 44-42 win over the Bills. He added two receptions on two targets for 10 yards.

Williams saw a season-high 29 rushing attempts, his first time topping 20 carries since Week 9. He wasn't very efficient, as he averaged only 3.0 yards per carry with his longest run going for 12 yards. However, volume was enough to carry Williams' fantasy performance, and he also supplemented his yardage with three- and seven-yard rushing scores. He now has a touchdown in three straight contests and has at least 80 rushing yards in three of his last four games.

Conner rushed 18 times for 90 yards while catching all four of his targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-18 loss to the Seahawks.

Conner caught a two-yard touchdown pass late in the third quarter on an underhand pass from Kyler Murray for the veteran running back's first receiving touchdown of the season. This was also Conner's highest rushing yardage total since Week 9, as he had only 109 yards on the ground in three games in between. Conner will look to build off this bounce-back effort in a favorable Week 15 matchup against the 3-10 Patriots.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 38-13 win over the Bears that Guerendo possibly has a foot sprain, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Guerendo exited in the fourth quarter due to a foot injury after compiling 128 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. If Guerendo joins Christian McCaffrey (knee), Jordan Mason (ankle) and Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) on the sidelines Thursday against the Rams, Patrick Taylor would be the next man up in a 49ers backfield that also includes Ke'Shawn Vaughn and Israel Abanikanda. A potential return timeline for Guerendo has yet to be established.

Charbonnet rushed 22 times for 134 yards and two touchdowns while corralling all seven of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-18 win over Arizona.

Starter Kenneth Walker (ankle/calf) was unable to suit up for Sunday's crucial NFC West battle, opening the door for Charbonnet to make his third start of the campaign. The sophomore backup wound up setting new career highs in both rushing (134) and receiving yards (59) while punching in a pair of touchdowns. Five of Charbonnet's seven touchdown rushes have come in three spot-starts for Walker this season, highlighting the major fantasy value that can be unearthed in those scenarios. Fantasy managers who missed out on Sunday's point bonanza should monitor Walker's status for Week 15 before putting in large bids for Seattle's talented backup ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Green Bay.

Barkley carried the ball 20 times for 124 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Panthers. He also ran in a two-point conversion.

The star running back reached 100 rushing yards for the fourth straight game and the 10th time this season, in the process setting a new Eagles record with 1,623 rushing yards on the year, topping LeSean McCoy's 1,607 yards from 2013. Barkley remains on track to top 2,000 yards on the season, and Eric Dickerson's NFL record of 2,105 yards is firmly in his sights. Barkley will look to keep rolling in Week 15 against the Steelers.

Edwards-Helaire is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Chargers.

With Edwards-Helaire once again a healthy scratch for Sunday's contest, Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt, Samaje Perine and Carson Steele are available to handle Kansas City's Week 14 backfield duties.

Guerendo (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears. He rushed 15 times for 78 yards and two touchdowns while catching both of his targets for 50 yards prior to the injury.

Guerendo went to the locker room in the fourth quarter, and he's likely done for the day with the 49ers holding onto a comfortable lead. Prior to the injury, Guerendo excelled in the lead role as San Francisco worked without Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle), who are both on IR. Patrick Taylor will help the 49ers run out the clock. Guerendo will need to heal up quickly to be ready to face the Rams on Thursday in Week 15.

Jones rushed 13 times for 73 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for 11 yards in the Vikings' 42-21 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

A week after having issues with ball security, Jones turned in a clean performance that also featured his third performance of better than 70 rushing yards in the last five contests. Jones also recorded his second rushing touchdown in the last three games on a 15-yard run with 3:38 remaining to cap off the runaway win. The veteran back heads into a Week 15 home matchup against the Bears on Monday night, Dec. 16 now just 117 rushing yards away from the fourth 1,000-yard campaign of his career.

Irving (back) didn't return to Sunday's 28-13 win against the Raiders as a precaution, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

Irving tended to hip and back injuries during Week 14 prep, and even though he suited up Sunday, he ultimately hit the sidelines for good late in the first half due to the latter concern, finishing the contest with four carries for three yards and one catch (on one target) for 15 yards. Meanwhile, fellow RB Rachaad White had 17 rushes for 90 yards and one touchdown and two receptions (on three targets) for 19 yards and another TD, and Sean Tucker racked up 47 yards on three carries. Irving's status will be one to monitor this week as the Buccaneers prepare for next Sunday's visit to the Chargers.

Hubbard carried the ball 26 times for 92 yards and a touchdown and caught four of five targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 22-16 loss to the Eagles.

Rookie Jonathon Brooks left the game in the first quarter with an injury to his right knee, the same one he had ACL surgery on about a year ago, while depth RB Raheem Blackshear was also knocked out of the game early with a chest injury. That left Hubbard as Carolina's only option in the backfield, and he turned the extra volume into his best performance since Week 10. The fourth-year back also crossed 1,000 rushing yards on the season, the first time in his career he's reached that plateau. If Brooks' injury proves to be serious, Hubbard is likely headed for a heavy workload again in Week 15 against the Cowboys.
