Davis rushed three times for six yards in Sunday's 30-20 win over the Colts.

Davis was minimally involved in Sunday's contest, as the rookie running back was on the field for just 11 of the Bills' 74 offensive snaps while starter James Cook played 41 snaps. As long as the latter remains healthy, the 25-year-old Davis should continue to see limited usage out of Buffalo's backfield. Davis is best viewed as solid insurance policy behind Cook going forward. The Bills will host the Chiefs in Week 11.

The Chiefs designated Pacheco (fibula) for return from injured reserve Tuesday.

Pacheco, who was placed on IR on Sept. 18, will resume practicing with the Chiefs when the team begins Week 11 prep Wednesday. He has been eying a late-November return from a fractured fibula, so the running back may not be pushed to return to the lineup this Sunday in Buffalo. The Chiefs will have a 21-day window to evaluate Pacheco, which may make a return Week 12 at Carolina or Week 13 versus the Raiders more realistic. Kareem Hunt has been serving as the Chiefs' lead back during Pacheco's absence, but Hunt would likely move into more of a secondary role once Pacheco is deemed fully healthy.

The 49ers cut Vaughn from the practice squad Tuesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The move makes room on the practice squad for running back Patrick Taylor, who was on the 49ers' active roster through the first eight games of the regular season. Vaughn signed with the 49ers' practice squad in late August after failing to make the 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp. The 2020 third-round pick will explore his options and look to sign with a team in need of depth in the backfield.

Robinson (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

After sitting out the Commanders' last two games with a hamstring injury, Robinson has been listed as limited on the team's first two Week 11 injury reports, both of which were estimates. Earlier Tuesday, head coach Dan Quinn told JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington that the Commanders will hold a higher-intensity practice Wednesday, which should offer a better picture of his likely status for Thursday's game in Philadelphia. If Robinson ends up sitting out a third straight game or is available in only a limited capacity, Austin Ekeler would continue to operate as Washington's lead back after earning double-digit touches each of the past two weeks.

Steele tallied two carries for three yards during Sunday's 16-14 victory against the Broncos.

Steele logged only 13 offensive snaps in the contest, still trailing Kareem Hunt (44) by a sizable margin and sitting three behind Samaje Perine as well. The rookie back has carried the ball a combined seven times over the last three weeks. With Isiah Pacheco's (lower leg) return from injured reserve on the horizon, there's little to like about Steele's fantasy prospects moving forward.

Wright rushed five times for three yards during Monday's 23-15 win over the Rams.

Wright has now totaled just 21 yards on 11 carries (1.9 YPC) in his last two appearances, a disappointing development after he averaged 5.3 YPC in his first six career appearances. He did, however, work as the No. 2 backfield option behind De'Von Achane versus Los Angeles, while veteran Raheem Mostert was held without a rushing attempt but secured two of three targets. Achane remains the Dolphins' clear backfield leader, with Wright and Mostert splitting the leftover duties. Wright will try to do more with his opportunities in Week 11 versus the Raiders.

Mostert secured two of three targets for 34 yards during Miami's 23-15 win over the Rams on Monday.

Mostert did not log a single carry during Monday night's win, while De'Von Achane rushed 12 times for 37 yards and Jaylen Wright logged five carries for three yards. Achane was also more involved than Mostert in the receiving game, securing all five of his targets for 15 yards. All three of Tua Tagovailao's targets to Mostert came on third down, and the veteran running back's 15 percent share of offensive snaps marked a season low. Mostert had logged at least 10 carries in three of four appearances leading up to Monday's win, but his role has to be considered uncertain heading into a Week 11 home game against the Raiders.

Perine didn't tally a carry but reeled in both of his targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 16-14 victory over the Broncos.

While Perine saw limited action (16 snaps) on offense, he made a notable play, scampering for 35 yards on one of his two receptions in a drive that ended up with a field goal. Even so, he's hardly producing enough weekly to warrant a look in fantasy leagues, especially with Isiah Pacheco on the cusp of a return to the playing field. Once Pacheco returns, Perine would presumably drop to third on the depth chart behind Pacheco and Kareem Hunt, further diminishing his fantasy value.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Harris could be limited in practice this week due to an ankle injury, but the running back is expected to play Sunday against the Ravens, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Harris is banged up coming out of a 28-27 win over the Commanders this past Sunday, when he matched his season high with 21 carries and gained 53 yards while scoring a touchdown. The Steelers are seemingly planning on taking it easy with Harris in practice this week coming off the big workload, but his availability for a Week 11 matchup with Baltimore doesn't seem to be in serious jeopardy.

Haskins tallied two carries for four yards and a touchdown in the 27-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.

The Chargers seemed to do Haskins a solid against his former team, as the second-year running back was handed a one-yard touchdown run late in the second half after J.K. Dobbins effectively ran the entire way down the field. With Gus Edwards (ankle) back in the fold, it's important to note Haskins played ahead of Kimani Vidal, who was a healthy inactive, but that still led to just five offensive snaps total.
