Randall (neck) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Randall strung together a trio of full practices during Week 8 prep. He opened the regular season on injured reserve due to a neck injury, and he would need to be activated from IR on Saturday in order to be available to make his NFL debut Sunday. The rookie fifth-rounder's return would give the Ravens more depth in the backfield and another return option on both punts and kickoffs.

Allen (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Colts.

Allen popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a hamstring injury, but despite logging back-to-back limited practices to end Week 8 prep, the second-year running back has been cleared to play in Sunday's AFC South tilt. He has only one carry through six regular-season games while operating as the team's RB3 behind Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez.

Price (chest) was a full participant in Friday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Since the Seahawks designated Price for return from injured reserve Thursday, he logged a limited session in his first chance to do so, followed by Friday's uncapped practice. How he's listed on Saturday's injury report will determine if he has a chance to return in Week 8 against the Bears, and if he's anything but 'Out' he'll need to be activated from IR by Monday afternoon and then be deemed active that evening. Meanwhile, fellow RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) went from full Thursday to limited Friday, seemingly indicating he may be trending in the wrong direction to make his season sebut.

Charbonnet (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Charbonnet opened Week 8 prep with a full practice Wednesday, which marked his fourth consecutive such listing on Seahawks injury reports. Having said that, his downgrade to limited could signify a setback of sorts as the running back seeks his first game action since Jan. 17, when he suffered a torn ACL in his left knee. Meanwhile, ellow RB Jadarian Price (chest), who was designated for return from injured reserve this week, went from limited Thursday to full Friday. In the end, Saturday's practice report will reveal both players odds to suit up Monday against the Bears.

Pollard will have a chance to easily pace the Titans backfield against Cincinnati on Sunday due to the absence of Tyjae Spears (knee), Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Pollard enters the weekend on the heels of the best performance of his career with the Titans, when he turned 25 carries into 129 yards and three touchdowns and added three catches (on as many targets) for 26 yards in a Week 7 loss to the Browns. Cincinnati's defense gives up 116.3 rushing yards per game (19th in the NFL), but the unit likely will hone in more on Pollard given Spears and even rookie WR Carnell Tate (shoulder) are sidelined.

Mason and Aaron Jones (knee) will share the backfield against the Lions on Sunday after the latter avoided an injury designation for Week 8, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports.

Jones injured his knee against the Colts in Week 7, so Mason ended up leading the Vikings backfield in touches and finished with 15 carries for 68 yards while failing to haul in either of his two targets from Kyler Murray. Jones has been cleared to play in Sunday's NFC North tilt after logging a full practice Friday, so he and Mason figure to split duties for that contest while rookie sixth-rounder Demond Claiborne operates in a depth role.

Dobbins and Jonah Coleman will lead the Broncos' backfield against the Chiefs on Sunday due to the absence of RJ Harvey (knee), Eric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Harvey popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a knee injury and was unable to practice Friday, which resulted in him being ruled out for Sunday's AFC West tilt. Dobbins found the end zone in Week 7 against the Cardinals but was less efficient with his carries than Coleman, although the duo could have a fairly even split in backfield duties in Harvey's absence. Through seven regular-season games. Dobbins has turned 87 carries into 293 yards (3.4 YPC) and three touchdowns while adding eight catches on nine targets for 27 yards.

Harvey (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, but his injury isn't considered severe or long term, Sam Jane of The Denver Post reports.

Harvey was a mid-week addition to the injury report, listed as limited Thursday and absent Friday. It sounds like he may only miss a game or two, but that could impact his role down the stretch if rookie Jonah Coleman takes advantage of the opportunity ahead. Coleman took half of the snaps and half of the backfield opportunities last week in his first game back from injured reserve, while Harvey was limited to a 25 percent snap share and five touches, relying on a 52-yard TD reception to salvage his fantasy day. Harvey's absence could free up a few more snaps and touches for Coleman or J.K. Dobbins.

Coleman said Friday that he'll be ready for a larger role if that's what the team needs in the absence of RJ Harvey, who has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Kansas City due to a knee injury, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Coleman already appeared to make his move last week during a 30-16 win over Arizona, playing 50 percent of snaps on offense while leading the Broncos in carries (nine) and rushing yards (54). Meanwhile, Harvey (25 percent snap share, five touches) and J.K. Dobbins (21 percent snap share, six touches) both scored touchdowns despite losing a lot of playing time to Coleman in the rookie's first game back from injured reserve. There's no assurance Coleman's role will continue to grow, but Harvey's upcoming absence -- be it for one game or longer -- does give Coleman a better chance to consolidate rushing and receiving work in Denver's backfield.

Jeremiyah Love (ankle) has been cleared to return from a two-game absence to face the Cowboys on Sunday, so Knight is expected to revert to rotational role in the Cardinals' backfield.

The rookie first-rounder was a full participant in Friday's practice, which was enough for him to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest. Love could operate on a snap count in his return, so Knight and Tyler Allgeier -- who have co-led the Cardinals' backfield for each of the last two games -- could both still see a fair amount of involvement in Arizona's offensive gameplan. Over his last two outings, Knight has turned 22 carries into 128 yards (5.8 YPC) and caught five passes on seven targets for 33 yards.
