Jones rushed 14 times for 93 yards and a touchdown and secured all three targets for 23 yards in the Vikings' 31-29 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Jones came into the weekend sporting a questionable designation due to a hamstring injury, but there were no signs of any limitations as the veteran back tied his third-highest rushing yardage total of the season. He also managed his fifth multi-catch game over the first six contests, and he found the end zone on the ground for the first time since Week 1 on a 34-yard run to open the scoring in the first quarter. Jones retains clear control of Minnesota's backfield heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the Rams on Thursday night.

Mostert carried the ball 11 times for 50 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Colts.

De'Von Achane led the Miami backfield with 15 totes for 77 yards, but Mostert found some success as well, even with the Colts' defense having little to worry about through the air. The Dolphins could lean even more heavily on their backfield in Week 8 against the Cardinals -- Tyler Huntley (shoulder) left Sunday's game in the third quarter, joining Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and Skylar Thompson (ribs) on the sideline. If none of those QBs are ready to go next week, 30-year-old career backup Tim Boyle would get the start.

Achane carried the ball 15 times for 77 yards and caught two of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Colts.

The Dolphins' offense struggled once again with Tyler Huntley (shoulder) and then Tim Boyle under center, but Achane was still able to accumulate solid yardage and led the team in rushing. With Boyle potentially set for the start in Week 8 against the Cardinals if none of Huntley, Skylar Thompson (ribs) or Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) are able to suit up, Achane and Raheem Mostert (11 totes for 50 yards Sunday) could be in line for even bigger volume out of the backfield.

Gibbs rushed 15 times for 116 yards and two touchdowns and brought in all four targets for 44 yards in the Lions' 31-29 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

Gibbs led the Lions' ground game across the board and also finished as the second-leading pass catcher in both receptions and receiving yards. The versatile second-year pro recorded his second multi-touchdown effort in three games as well with 45- and eight-yard scoring runs in the second quarter, and his rushing yardage total was a new season high. Gibbs' workload was aided by the fact backfield mate David Montgomery missed some time in the first half due to a knee injury, but the Alabama product's numbers stand out under any circumstance. Gibbs next takes aim at the Titans defense in a Week 8 home matchup.

Robinson rushed 21 times for 103 yards and a touchdown and brought in three of five targets for 40 yards in the Falcons' 34-14 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

Robinson enjoyed a true lead-back role despite the lopsided loss, outpacing backfield mate Tyler Allgeier by 16 carries. Robinson's carry total actually was a season high, and his receiving yardage tally was his third of at least 40 on the campaign. He also recorded his third touchdown in the last two games with a five-yard run just past the midway point of the second quarter, affording him plenty of momentum heading into a key Week 8 road clash against the NFC South rival Buccaneers.

Mixon rushed 25 times for 115 yards and two touchdowns while catching two of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Packers.

Mixon carried Houston's offense while C.J. Stroud threw for only 86 yards. The veteran running back ran in touchdowns of two and four yards in the second quarter, with the second score capping a drive that also featured a 32-yard Mixon burst on the ground. Mixon has been terrific when healthy, and he'll have a nice opportunity to keep rolling in Week 8 against a Colts defense that he ravaged for 159 rushing yards and a touchdown in the season opener.

Walker (illness) rushed 14 times for 69 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for 24 yards and another score in the Seahawks' 34-14 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Walker was a Saturday addition to the injury report due to an illness, but the third-year back didn't display any signs of attrition while helping the Seahawks to a win on his 24th birthday. He hit pay dirt twice in a game for the second time this season, recording scoring plays on a 20-yard run and 17-yard reception in the second and third quarters, respectively. The latter play showed off Walker's receiver-like skills, as he managed a picturesque outstretched grab. He should have plenty of time to get back to full health ahead of a Week 8 home showdown against the Bills.

Jacobs rushed 12 times for 76 yards while catching all five of his targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Texans.

Jacobs saw a light workload in the first half, turning six carries and two targets into 38 scrimmage yards. He didn't take long to get going after halftime, breaking off a 27-yard run on Green Bay's first possession of the second half and capping that drive with an eight-yard touchdown reception. It was his first career touchdown catch, coming on the 212th reception of Jacobs' career to set a record for most receptions before scoring a receiving touchdown. With the receiving touchdown monkey finally off his back, Jacobs will look to add to his season total of two scrimmage touchdowns when the Packers travel to Jacksonville in Week 8.

Laube (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Laube has played in the Raiders' last three games, but he lost a fumble on his first NFL rushing attempt in Week 6 against the Steelers. His next chance at suiting up will be Week 8 against the Chiefs on Oct. 27. The Raiders will go with a three-man backfield of Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah for Sunday's contest.

Edwards-Helaire is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Edwards-Helaire, who was activated from the reserve/non-football illness list Tuesday, practiced fully this week, but his regular-season debut won't occur for at least another week. As a result, the Chiefs' Week 7 backfield is comprised of Kareem Hunt, Samaje Perine and Carson Steele.
