Jones (ankle) returned to Sunday's game against the Giants, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

While Jones is back in the contest after having exited it, fellow RB Jordan Mason, who also sustained an ankle injury Sunday, has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 16 action. In that context, Zavier Scott is available to handle complementary backfield snaps for the Vikings.

Jones sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's contest at the Giants.

Fellow RB Jordan Mason also exited with an ankle injury, but while Mason needed a cart to leave the field, according to Alec Lewis of The Athletic, Jones was spotted jogging on the sideline, per Lewis. Zavier Scott took over the Vikings backfield to kick off their second drive of the game.

Mason suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's game at the Giants.

Both Mason and fellow RB Aaron Jones injured their ankles in the first quarter of Week 16 action, but while Mason was spotted getting on a cart, per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, Jones was jogging on the sideline, according to Lewis. Zavier Scott took over the Vikings backfield to begin their second possession of the contest.

Chubb (ribs) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders but could be in line to serve as the Texans' top ball carrier in Week 16 with Woody Marks (ankle) trending toward missing the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Before sitting out the Texans' Week 15 win over the Cardinals due to a ribs injury, Chubb had begun to cede more work on the ground to Marks over his most recent appearances. However, Marks exited the Week 15 game early due to an ankle injury of his own, then sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday before returning to the field Friday as a limited participant. Like Chubb, Marks is listed as questionable, and though he had been pushing to play Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston relays that the Texans plan to have the rookie rest his ankle this week. Assuming Chubb -- who practiced fully Thursday and Friday -- is officially cleared upon the release of Houston's inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, he could take on the brunt of the carries out of the backfield with Marks out of the picture. Meanwhile, Jawhar Jordan is also expected to have a role in the game plan after a 15-carry, 101-yard performance in Week 15, and Dare Ogunbowale could see more involvement on passing downs.

Marks (ankle) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders but appears likely to be inactive for the contest, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Though Marks exited last week's win over the Cardinals and managed just one limited practice this week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reported late Saturday that the rookie running back was planning on playing Sunday. Ultimately, Marks doesn't look like he'll be able to give it a go, with official confirmation on his status set to arrive when Houston posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. With Marks trending toward sitting out, Nick Chubb (ribs) -- who is also listed as questionable but appears on track to play -- is projected to lead the Houston backfield in carries. Jawhar Jordan is also expected to have an expanded role in the game plan after he accounted for 118 total yards on 17 touches in the Week 15 win over Arizona.

Blue (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Blue has not played since Week 8, and that trend will continue Sunday as the Cowboys go with Javonte Williams and Malik Davis as the two active running backs. The Cowboys were eliminated from playoff contention following the Eagles' 29-18 win over the Commanders on Saturday, so it's possible that Blue gets some run time during the final two games of the regular season.

Luepke (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Luepke increased his practice participation over the course of Week 16 prep, and he has progressed enough to clear the league's concussion protocol and be available for Sunday's home tilt. The third-year fullback turned five touches into 30 yards during the Cowboys' Week 15 loss to the Vikings before leaving the game after sustaining a concussion.

Pierce (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Pierce was signed to the Chiefs' active roster Saturday but will not suit up for Sunday's road tilt, as Kansas City rolls with a three-man backfield in Kareem Hunt, Isiah Pacheco and Brashard Smith. Pierce's next opportunity to play is Christmas Day against the Broncos.

Bigsby logged four rushes for 37 yards and a touchdown Saturday in a 29-18 Week 16 win over Washington.

As usual, Saquon Barkley was a workhorse for the Eagles, posting a 21-132-1 line as a rusher. That left just eight offensive snaps for Bigsby, but he made the most of those opportunities, especially when he ripped off a 22-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter to effectively seal the win for Philadelphia. The touchdown was the first of the campaign for Bigsby, who has averaged a robust 6.6 yards on 40 carries this season but isn't likely to be a viable fantasy play as long as Barkley as healthy.

McNichols finished Saturday's loss to Philadelphia with one carry for three yards and two catches (on three targets) for nine yards.

McNichols posted a season-high 10 touches versus the Giants in Week 15, but that increased workload was largely due to the absence of No. 1 RB Chris Rodriguez. With both Rodriguez and No. 2 tailback Jacory Croskey-Merritt in action Saturday, McNichols went back to his usual minor role, though he did get more offensive snaps (15) than Croskey-Merritt (11). As long as at least one of the two running backs ahead of him on the depth chart is healthy, McNichols figures to be mostly a non-factor in fantasy.
