White (groin) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Rams.

After logging back-to-back limited practices, White -- who had missed the Raiders' last two contests -- upgraded to full participation Friday before being listed as questionable heading into the weekend. With his active status confirmed, White is poised to reclaim his role in a Las Vegas backfield that also includes Alexander Mattison (who started while White was out) as well as change-of-pace option Ameer Abdullah. In that context, White -- who has recorded 49 carries for 152 yards and caught five of his seven targets for 16 yards in four games thus far -- represents a lineup option for those in deeper formats or who are otherwise in need of Week 7 RB help.

Robinson (knee) is active for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Panthers.

Robinson missed the Week 6 loss to the Ravens with his knee injury, but after managing a limited practice in each day of Week 7 prep, he's back on the field as expected. As such, Robinson should be back in his customary lead-back role for what has been one of the most inviting matchups for running backs thus far this season, as the Panthers are surrendering 153.5 rushing yards per game.

Montgomery (knee) returned to Sunday's game at Minnesota, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

In the middle of the first quarter, Montgomery remained on the turf for a spell after a carry for no gain before he limped off the field with team trainers. After getting examined and working out his knee on an exercise bike, he got back into the contest early in the second quarter. Montgomery will continue to work in tandem with Jahmyr Gibbs out of Detroit's backfield.

Stevenson rushed the ball seven times for 18 yards in Sunday's 32-16 loss to the Jaguars. He added two receptions on three targets for seven yards.

Stevenson returned from a one-game absence to lead the New England backfield as a rusher, though both his volume and effectiveness were muted -- the latter of which was caused by game script. Most concerning was JaMycal Hasty's involvement as a pass catcher, which cut into Stevenson's overall role in the offense. Stevenson should be more productive moving forward due to the improved performance of the New England offense, but he has now been held under 50 rushing yards in three of his last four games.

Montgomery was forced out of Sunday's game against the Vikings with a knee injury.

Before leaving the contest, Montgomery carried twice for three yards and caught both of his targets for 25 yards. In his absence, Jahmyr Gibbs, Craig Reynolds and Sione Vaki are left to handle the Lions' Week 7 backfield duties.

Johnson rushed nine times for 38 yards and brought in three of four targets for 32 yards in the Jaguars' 32-16 win over the Patriots on Sunday in London.

With Travis Etienne (hamstring) sidelined, both Tank Bigsby and Johnson bumped up a spot on the depth chart for the London matchup. Johnson played a clear second fiddle to his teammate, but he was effective in both his rushing and pass-catching roles. The veteran is a valuable insurance policy for Jacksonville if Etienne misses extended time, and Johnson would be set to reprise his No. 2 role in a Week 8 home matchup against the Packers if the latter remains out.

Bigsby rushed 26 times for 118 yards and two touchdowns and failed to bring in his only target during the Jaguars' 32-16 win over the Patriots on Sunday in London.

With Travis Etienne (hamstring) inactive, Bigsby had an opportunity to handle a lead-back role that he already seemed to be building toward in recent games. The second-year back did not disappoint with the expanded opportunity, rounding out his second career 100-yard effort, both of which have come in the last three games, with touchdown runs of one and four yards in the second and fourth quarters, respectively. Given his showing Sunday and the lingering nature of hamstring injuries, Bigsby could well helm the ground attack again in a Week 8 home matchup against the Packers.

Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Colts.

With De'Von Achane, Raheem Mostert and Jaylen Wright all available Sunday, Wilson remains the odd man out in Miami's backfield after also having been a healthy scratch in Week 5.

Walker (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Walker appeared on the injury report Saturday with an undisclosed illness, but he will be on the field for Sunday's matchup. He has been Seattle's lead back this season, though it's unclear if his health will interfere with his usage against Atlanta. Walker will also look to get back to his early-season form, as he's managed only 51 yards on 19 carries combined across the last two games.

Akers is active for Sunday's game against the Lions after being acquired from the Texans on Tuesday, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Meanwhile, Myles Gaskin is a healthy inactive for Sunday's game. Akers will work as the No. 3 running back, but he may not see much playing time with lead back Aaron Jones (hamstring) set to play. Ty Chandler will work as Jones' backup.
