  • Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Slowed in Pittsburgh

    Taylor rushed14 times for 45 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Steelers. He added two receptions on two targets for 12 yards.

    Taylor has been unstoppable most of the season, but he was underwhelming in Sunday's loss. He was limited to only 3.2 yards per carry with a long gain of nine, though the Colts were also forced to take to the air as they faced a two-score deficit for nearly the entire second half. That limited Taylor's volume and led to his lowest yardage output of the season. This was also the first time he didn't find the end zone since Week 4.

  • Giants' Devin Singletary: Leads Giants RBs with 10 touches

    Singletary rushed eight times for 43 yards and caught both of his targets for eight yards in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the 49ers.

    Singletary outplayed Tyrone Tracy in the first game after Cam Skattebo's season-ending ankle injury. Tracy turned five carries and four targets into 37 scrimmage yards. The Giants' only rushing touchdown of the game was scored by Jaxson Dart, who also led the team with 56 rushing yards. The rookie quarterback will likely remain involved in the rushing attack against the Bears in Week 10, but Singletary and Tracy both look poised to maintain significant roles while splitting carries in the aftermath of Cam Skattebo's season-ending ankle injury.

  • Kyle Monangai RB | CHI

    Bears' Kyle Monangai: Memorable day in first career start

    Monangai rushed 26 times for 176 yards and brought in three of five targets for 22 yards in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    The rookie seventh-round pick got the starting call due to both D'Andre Swift (groin) and Roschon Johnson (back) being sidelined, and Monangai delivered even better returns than he was already projected for while facing a highly porous Bengals defense. Monangai's longest run of the day went for an impressive 39 yards, one of his three gains of 10-plus yards on the ground. The standout performance certainly gives the Bears confidence -- and perhaps the luxury of sitting Swift out an extra week if he's not fully healthy -- when they draw another extremely favorable matchup for the running game in that of the visiting Giants in Week 10.

  • Patriots' Terrell Jennings: Gets 12 touches with Stevenson out

    Jennings rushed 11 times for 35 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 24-23 win over the Falcons.

    Jennings scored his first NFL touchdown on a three-yard run in the second quarter. The second-year pro out of Florida A&M played an expanded role in the absence of Rhamondre Stevenson (toe), though TreVeyon Henderson led New England's backfield with 87 yards on 18 touches. Jennings' catch was also the first of his career, suggesting his involvement will likely come primarily on the ground, but he could continue to factor in against the stout Buccaneers run defense in Week 10 if Stevenson remains sidelined.

  • Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Gets 18 touches as lead back

    Henderson rushed 14 times for 55 yards and caught four of six targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 24-23 win over the Falcons.

    Henderson set a new career high in carries as the Patriots played without Rhamondre Stevenson (toe), and the rookie second-round pick's 55 rushing yards marked the second-highest total of Henderson's career behind his 75 against the Browns in Week 8. Terrell Jennings played a complementary role alongside Henderson, rushing 11 times for 35 yards and a touchdown. Henderson's production has been trending up, but he'll remain part of a platoon in Week 10 against the Buccaneers, whether he's splitting carries with Stevenson or Jennings.

  • Aaron Jones RB | MIN

    Vikings' Aaron Jones: Dealing with shoulder sprain

    Jones, who exited Sunday's 27-24 win over the Lions, suffered an AC joint sprain in his shoulder, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

    According to Pelissero, the belief is that the running back's injury issue is minor, and Jones thinks he'll be able to play next weekend against the Ravens. With that in mind, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune relays that coach Kevin O'Connell noted that Jones' shoulder will be evaluated further, while adding that the team is "hoping to get some good news" on that front. In the event that Jones is forced to miss time, however, fellow RB Jordan Mason would be in line to see added touches, as he did when Jones was on IR with a hamstring injury.

  • Josh Jacobs RB | GB

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Extends TD streak to five games

    Jacobs carried the ball 17 times for 87 yards and a touchdown and caught four of five targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Panthers.

    The former Raider continues to thrive as a Packer. Jacobs' one-yard TD run in the fourth quarter tied the contest at 13-13 and extended his personal scoring streak to five games, a stretch in which he's amassed 354 rushing yards and eight TDs. Sunday's loss also marked his third game this season with 100-plus scrimmage yards. Jacobs will likely be leaned on heavily once again in a Week 10 battle against the Eagles, especially with the Packers having seen Tucker Kraft (knee) and Matthew Golden (shoulder) go down to injuries against the Panthers.

  • Jordan Mason RB | MIN

    Vikings' Jordan Mason: Accrues 37 total yards in win

    Mason rushed 10 times for 36 yards and brought in his only target for one yard in the Vikings' 27-24 win over the Lions on Sunday.

    Mason opened the game splitting work as customary with Aaron Jones, but the latter's exit early in the third quarter due to a shoulder injury afforded more opportunity for the former. Mason still found running room mostly at a premium against a talented Lions run defense, and while Jones' inability to return to the game would seemingly portend a potentially serious injury, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports the veteran back has an AC joint sprain and believes he'll be available for a Week 10 home matchup against the Ravens.

  • Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR

    Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Five touches as backup

    Hubbard carried the ball five times for 17 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Packers.

    As expected, Rico Dowdle took over as the No. 1 back for Carolina rather than working in a timeshare with Hubbard, and he turned 25 totes into 130 rushing yards and two TDs. It's the first time Hubbard has failed to get double-digit carries in a game when healthy since Week 1 of 2024, but it likely won't be the last as Dowdle continues to build job security in the starting role. Hubbard's best chance of making an impact in Week 10 might be if the Panthers can build a big lead at home against the Saints, offering the potential for some garbage-time touches.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Out-touched 10-8 by Singletary

    Tracy rushed five times for 18 yards and caught three of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the 49ers.

    Tracy ceded the slight majority of work to Devin Singletary, who turned 10 touches into 51 scrimmage yards. Tracy worked ahead of Singletary for most of the former's rookie season in 2024, but the Giants may employ a more even split in 2025 following Cam Skattebo's season-ending ankle injury. The workload distribution between Tracy and Singletary will remain worth monitoring in Week 10 against the Bears.
