Cook rushed 24 times for 154 yards and a touchdown and failed to bring in his only target in the Bills' 24-16 win over the Chargers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Although neither offense looked anywhere close to cohesive as a whole, Cook was a rare exception. The star running back delivered another dominant performance on the ground despite his day getting off on the wrong foot, as he lost a fumble on the first play from scrimmage and saw the Chargers parlay it into a touchdown. Cook's longest run of the day was a relatively modest 23 yards, meaning he consistently ripped off chunk gains against the Chargers defense. Cook also went in for his second touchdown of the season at a critical juncture in the fourth quarter, extending a 17-13 Bills lead with a three-yard run. Cook has quickly amassed 346 rushing yards at 6.0 yards per carry over his first three games, affording him an abundance of momentum heading into a Week 4 divisional home showdown against the Patriots next Sunday.

Skattebo carried the ball 20 times for 60 yards and caught three of four targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Titans.

With Jameis Winston under center instead of Jaxson Dart (knee), the Giants leaned a little more heavily on their backfield and Skattebo saw a season high in touches while hitting for 100-plus scrimmage yards for the first time in 2026. The second-year back's longest play came on a 30-yard toss in the first quarter, as he made himself available downfield to bail out a scrambling Winston. Through three games, Skattebo is showing no ill effects from the ankle injury that ended his rookie campaign early, and he's collected 177 rushing yards and a TD on 50 carries while adding a 7-59-0 line on eight targets. He figures to see a big workload again in Week 4 at home against the Cardinals.

Head coach Jeff Hafley said after Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Chiefs that Achane's knee injury "does not sound very optimistic," but the running back will undergo additional testing to determine the extent of the issue, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Achane lasted a shade more than four minutes of game time before he exited with what eventually was termed a knee injury, which didn't allow him to return. Hafley's comments indicate Achane is very likely dealing with a serious health concern, but in the wake of Sunday's contest, the team lacks clarity regarding a diagnosis and prognosis. If Achane needs to miss time, Jaylen Wright (foot), who was inactive Sunday, and Ollie Gordon (20 touches for 55 total yards and one TD) would be the immediate candidates to fill in in Miami's backfield.

Taylor rushed 23 times for 68 yards while catching two of three targets for four yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Texans.

Taylor racked up 25 touches as the Colts notched their first win of the season, but he failed to find much running room against Houston's stout front. He finished with a season-low 72 scrimmage yards and failed to score after opening the season with a pair of two-touchdown performances. The workhorse running back is averaging 25 touches per game heading into the Colts' Week 4 trip to London to take on the Commanders at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and Taylor's poised for another busy outing in the overseas clash between 1-2 teams.

Hall (thigh) outlined that he "felt something" when running before departing Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Lions, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Hall was forced out of the game in the fourth quarter after sustaining a leg injury while being tackled. The running back was unable to return to the contest, and he will likely undergo additional imaging to determine the severity of the injury. If he is forced to miss any action moving forward, Braelon Allen would stand to operate as the team's No. 1 option in the backfield.

Walker rushed 18 times for 70 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for three yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Dolphins.

Walker recorded a rushing touchdown and receiving touchdown in the same game for the second time in three outings as a member of the Chiefs. He capped Kansas City's opening drive with a 10-yard touchdown run just 2:06 into the game before adding a five-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter. Walker has racked up 76 touches while thriving in a workhorse role for his new team heading into a Week 4 road tilt in Vegas.

Spears (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Heading into Sunday, Spears was listed as questionable with the same injury but was ultimately cleared to suit up. However, he appears to be dealing with an aggravation of the injury that now muddles his availability for the remainder of the contest. Spears carried twice for five yards and didn't draw a target prior to his departure.

Hall was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Lions after sustaining a thigh injury with 11:30 remaining in the fourth quarter.

Hall was in discomfort following a hard tackle near the sideline and made a visit to the Jets' medical tent before being ruled out for the contest. He finished the game with 13 carries for 32 yards and three catches for 23 yards on three targets prior to his departure. The Jets will be left with Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis as their backfield options for the remainder of the game.

Goodson is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Todd Archer of ESPN.com initially reported that Goodson would be a healthy scratch. Instead, it will be Emari Demercado (coach's decision) that will be inactive, with Goodson and Javonte Williams the active running backs for the Cowboys in Brazil.

Demercado (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Ravens in Rio de Janeiro.

Demercado served as the No. 2 RB behind Javonte Williams in the first two games of the campaign, totaling five carries for 15 yards. In Week 3, though, he'll take a backseat to Tyler Goodson. Demercado's next chance to suit up is next Sunday in Houston.
