Taylor had six carries for 18 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Jaguars.

Taylor, who was elevated from the practice squad for a second straight week, had a touch or target in all four quarters, including a couple of red-zone carries. His snap count increased from 10 in Week 3 to 16 in Sunday's win. The absence of Joe Mixon (ankle) and Dameon Pierce (hamstring) has created opportunities for players further down the depth chart, but that window for Taylor could close as soon as Week 5's game against the Bills.

Hasty was on the field for 10 of the Patriots' 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the 49ers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

The 10 snaps were a season high for Hasty, who logged three carries for 15 yards and failed to catch his only target. He's still behind Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson in New England's backfield pecking order, but he has provided some special-teams value with 75 kickoff return yards through four games, including 30 on his lone return in Week 4.

Mostert (chest) isn't expected to play Monday night against the Titans, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Mostert is listed as questionable for the contest, but if he is indeed unavailable versus Tennessee, De'Von Achane, Jeff Wilson and Jaylen Wright would be in line to handle Miami's backfield duties. Official confirmation of Mostert's status will arrive when the Dolphins' inactives are posted about 90 minutes ahead of Monday's 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff.

Brightwell returned two kickoffs for 36 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Raiders in Week 4.

Brightwell was active for a second straight game but has not played on offense yet. He was the main kick returner for the Giants in 2022 and could fill that role with the Browns until injured running backs Nick Chubb (knee) or Nyheim Hines (knee) return and need his roster spot.

Foreman carried the ball four times for two yards, caught his lone target for five yards and returned two kickoffs for 56 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Raiders.

For the third time in four games, Foreman was afterthought on offense, but the seventh-year back was used as a returner for the first time since his rookie season in 2017 when he was with Houston. The state of the Browns' backfield could change in Week 5 if either Nick Chubb (knee, PUP list) or Nyheim Hines (knee, NFI) are ready to make their season debuts, which would make Foreman's role on offense even more tenuous.

Hill rushed four times for 18 yards and caught all six of his targets for 78 yards and a receiving touchdown in Sunday's 35-10 win over the Bills.

Hill finished as the Ravens' leading receiver on a night dominated by Baltimore's rushers. The electric backup continued to generate hype with his biggest output of the season. Most of Hill's damage was done running routes Sunday, most notably on a 19-yard touchdown grab in the second half where he shook his assignment before hitting the open field for his first score of the campaign. Starter Derrick Henry stole the show with a 24-199-1 rushing line, but Hill still provided Flex value with 96 yards and a score on just 10 touches. Even if there isn't room in your starting lineup, it wouldn't be a bad idea to stash Hill on the bench if he is still out there ahead of Week 5's tilt against Cincinnati.

Henry ran for 199 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries while securing all three of his targets for 10 yards and another score in Sunday's 35-10 win over the Bills.

King Henry ruled supreme on Sunday Night Football from start to finish with his best game as a member of the Ravens. The longtime Tennessee tailback ripped off a franchise-high touchdown run of 87 yards on Baltimore's first offensive play of the night. It was steady sailing from there, as Henry proceeded to rack up over 200 combined yards with two trips to the end zone in a statement win over Buffalo. The 30-year-old has rumbled for 480 yards and five touchdowns in just four games with his new club. Fantasy managers should continue to ride King Henry's hot streak into next week's road tilt against the Bengals.

Cook rushed nine times for 39 yards and caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens.

Cook scored four touchdowns over the previous two games but watched Ty Johnson score a three-yard rushing touchdown in the third quarter. Buffalo's entire offense crashed down to earth with just 10 points after averaging 37.3 in Weeks 1-3, and Cook was held to exactly 39 rushing yards for the second consecutive game. While Cook remains the top option in Buffalo's backfield heading into a Week 5 trip to Houston, Josh Allen is a perpetual threat to call his own number in short-yardage situations, and Johnson has chipped in a touchdown in consecutive games.

Sermon rushed the ball five times for eight yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Steelers.

Sermon didn't earn his first touch until late in the third quarter but closed out the game as the Colts' lead back after Jonathan Taylor (ankle) was forced to the sidelines. He was ineffective with his opportunity, but Sermon could be in for a significant workload in Week 5 against the Jaguars if Taylor is unable to suit up.

Steele rushed the ball twice for six yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers. He added one reception on three targets for zero yards.

Steele started the game but lost a fumble on the first drive and was ineffective across the team's first three possessions. Kareem Hunt took over as the team's lead back while Steele did not record a touch after the first quarter, though he was targeted once shortly after halftime. Hunt did well in the role, so it wouldn't be a surprise if he has permanently moved past Steele on the depth chart.
