Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love absent from practice again Thursday with ankle issue Thu Oct 15, 04:31 PM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love was not at practice during the open portion on Thursday. Love also sat out Wednesday's practice with an ankle issue. Thursday's official injury report is due later in the afternoon.
| Footballguys view: The ankle issue is reportedly to both ankles. The rookie is a playmaker but these injuries are slowing him down. Tyler Allgeier could be tasked with doing more if Love is limited or has to miss time. |

Titans | Tyjae Spears downgraded to non-participant Thursday Thu Oct 15, 04:21 PM
Titans RB Tyjae Spears (knee) was downgraded to a non-participant in practice on Thursday. Spears split running back snaps nearly evenly with Tony Pollard in Sunday's loss to the Texans.
| Footballguys view: Getting downgraded in midweek is never a good sign. Spears has missed practices this year but still played on Sunday. This might be different, and it's not like Pollard needs the help. Pollard can handle a larger workload, and we like him as an RB2/flex option against the Colts in Week 6. |

Steelers | Rico Dowdle a full participant in practice on Thursday Thu Oct 15, 04:02 PM
Steelers RB Rico Dowdle was a full participant in practice on Thursday for the first time since dislocating his toe in Week 2. Dowdle was limited on Wednesday after being inactive for Sunday's win over the Colts.
| Footballguys view: Jaylen Warren has been dynamic for the Steelers, so Dowdle is set to return to a much different role. Dowdle could be seen as a 'what the heck' flex with Warren getting a bulk of the work. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson seen running and cutting four days after injury Thu Oct 15, 02:47 PM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson was shown on video running and cutting four days after suffering a high ankle sprain. Adam Schefter reported that the injury will sideline Henderson for multiple weeks.
| Footballguys view: High-ankle sprains take time to recover from, and it's usually about a month before we see players back in action. He's pushing to play in Week 6, but it's something we can't call right now. Circle back on Friday to see if Henderson can pull off a miracle and play against the Jets. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley not spotted at Thursday practice, 'another day without practice' Thu Oct 15, 02:24 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was not seen during the short media viewing window at Thursday's practice, ESPN's Tim McManus reported. That points to another day without practice for Barkley, who was also absent on Wednesday. Barkley had been described on Monday as having 'a shot to return' for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
| Footballguys view: Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele are in line for more work. We see Pierce as the lead back, and that could make him an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs. Without Jalen Hurts, the Eagles offense should lean on the run early and often. |

Browns | Dylan Sampson practices for first time since knee injury in opener Thu Oct 15, 01:15 PM
Browns RB Dylan Sampson practiced on Thursday for the first time since injuring his knee in the season opener against the Jaguars and going on injured reserve. Sampson was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, when head coach Todd Monken said there is a 'chance' he plays Sunday against the Ravens.
| Footballguys view: Sampson could have more work to do with Quinshon Judkins banged up. Jaleel McLaughlin is in line to be the lead back for the Browns in Week 6. We've got McLaughlin in the RB4/flex range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |

Commanders | Jacory Croskey-Merritt not seen during open portion of Thursday practice Thu Oct 15, 01:05 PM
Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt was not seen during the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media. Croskey-Merritt was limited in practice last week with a groin injury. Washington plays at the 49ers on Monday night in Week 6.
| Footballguys view: It's a Monday night game, so that complicates things for Fantasy GMs. He's been dealing with a groin injury, so perhaps that's why he's missing on Thursday. With the extra time, Fantasy GMs have to wait to see Croskey-Merritt's status on Saturday. |

Browns | Quinshon Judkins still not practicing Thursday Thu Oct 15, 01:04 PM
Browns RB Quinshon Judkins remained out of practice on Thursday. Several other Browns players returned to practice on Thursday, including RB Dylan Sampson, while Judkins was among seven players still not practicing.
| Footballguys view: Jaleel McLaughlin should be the lead back for the Browns with Judkins banged up. Dylan Sampson may be involved as he comes back from his injury, but it would be a lot to ask of him in his return. |

Jets | Breece Hall working with trainers on side field Thursday Thu Oct 15, 12:52 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall (quadriceps) was working off to a side field with trainers during Thursday's practice. Head coach Aaron Glenn called Hall 'week to week' on Wednesday, and Hall did not practice that day. He missed the Week 5 win over the Browns with the quad injury.

Jets | Frank Reich on Braelon Allen: Jets have 'the best 1-2 combo in the NFL' Thu Oct 15, 11:59 AM
Frank Reich praised Jets RB Braelon Allen on Thursday. "We think we have the best 1-2 combo in the NFL," Reich said. Allen ran for 116 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Browns.
| Footballguys view: We love what Allen has done filling in for Breece Hall. Allen is a big back who can be tough to bring down, and he's got more moves than most big guys can bring to the field. Without Hall in Week 6, Allen should produce like an RB2 with upside. |

Bears | Kyle Monangai a DNP on Wednesday, Bears backfield 'issues' Wed Oct 14, 08:00 PM
Bears RB Kyle Monangai did not practice on Wednesday. The Bears face backfield issues with Monangai sidelined, as RB D'Andre Swift was also absent for the second half of Sunday's loss at Green Bay.

Raiders | Ashton Jeanty full participant, ankle injury removed from report Wed Oct 14, 07:44 PM

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet ruled out for Thursday night at Denver Wed Oct 14, 06:12 PM
The Seahawks ruled out RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) for Thursday night's Week 6 game at Denver. The move was expected, as head coach Mike Macdonald said at the start of the week the team was not planning to play him. Everyone else on Seattle's 53-man roster except LBs Drake Thomas and Chazz Surratt is good to go.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet is getting closer to a return, but it's a short week and Seattle is on the road. This week against the Broncos, George Holani, Emanuel Wilson, and Robert Henry Jr. get a crack at running the ball. The Seahawks have yet to find much success on the ground this year. That changes when Charbonnet is healthy, but for this week on the road against the Broncos a three-headed RBBC is the play. |

Colts | Jonathan Taylor limited Wednesday ahead of Week 6 against Titans Wed Oct 14, 05:14 PM
Colts RB Jonathan Taylor was limited at practice on Wednesday with a rest designation ahead of Sunday's Week 6 game against the Titans.
| Footballguys view: Nothing to see here people. The limited session appeared to be a veteran rest day. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love sitting out Wednesday practice with ankle issue Wed Oct 14, 04:53 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love sat out practice on Wednesday with an ankle issue. The team will see how the week goes in terms of his availability for Sunday's game against the Rams.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs need to keep their head on a swivel here. Love's ankle was being managed last week before he was cleared to play against the Lions, and he was held to 22 yards on 12 carries in that loss. We'll see if he can do more as the week of practice rolls on. Reports indicate Love is managing the high-ankle sprain from the preseason and he may have picked up an injury to his other ankle too. |

Steelers | Rico Dowdle limited at Wednesday practice Wed Oct 14, 04:04 PM

Texans | Woody Marks RB1 with Montgomery out, Jawhar Jordan could be elevated Wed Oct 14, 03:31 PM
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Wednesday that RB David Montgomery (groin) is out and RB Woody Marks will be the RB1 this week for Sunday's game at Jacksonville. Ryans also discussed the chance of RB Jawhar Jordan being elevated: "Jawhar able to create some explosive plays. Jawhar very fast player, been working with us for a while good job with his role. If his role increases, maximizes. He'll be just fine."
| Footballguys view: The Texans travel to London to take on the Jaguars in Week 6. The Texans aren't running the ball effectively, but Marks is going to get a shot as the primary back. That makes Marks an RB3/flex play for Fantasy GMs working through four teams on bye. |

Eagles | No sign of Saquon Barkley at Wednesday practice Wed Oct 14, 02:33 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was not seen at practice on Wednesday as he deals with a hamstring injury. Barkley missed Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London and was considered "week-to-week" afterward.
| Footballguys view: On Monday he was described as having "a shot to return" for Sunday's Week 6 game against the Panthers. In fact, Eagles HC Nick Sirianni said he's "hopeful" he will receive offensive reinforcements this week (he was asked about Barkley's availability). It's Wednesday, so Fantasy GMs have to wait until Friday to see if Barkley can at least get in a limited practice. |

Texans | David Montgomery not practicing Wednesday Wed Oct 14, 01:53 PM
Texans RB David Montgomery (groin) did not practice on Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game at Jacksonville.
| Footballguys view: Montgomery was ruled out of Sunday's win over the Titans with the groin injury and was termed "week-to-week" on Monday. It's unlikely we see Montgomery in Week 6 against the Jaguars. Woody Marks should be the featured back for the Texans as they travel to London to play their division rival. |

Raiders | Kubiak on sitting Ashton Jeanty to get healthy: 'He's playing' Wed Oct 14, 01:52 PM
Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak said on Wednesday that RB Ashton Jeanty is starting to "feel a lot better" physically.
| Footballguys view: When asked if the team considered sitting Jeanty to get him healthy, Kubiak said, "He's playing." Jeanty played through ankle and foot injuries against the Patriots on Sunday. Fantasy GMs sitting on Mike Washington Jr. hoping for a larger role will have to wait. |

Jaguars | Tuten's touches up three straight weeks as Rodriguez fades Wed Oct 14, 01:32 PM
Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten's touch count has risen in three straight weeks, and his two highest route shares have come in the last two games. RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. had just three touches in Sunday's win over the Eagles and is averaging six touches per game. Tuten has two touchdowns this season, and penalties wiped out two others in Week 4.
| Footballguys view: Tuten is a dynamic player, and the Jaguars offense is looking to get more big plays. If this role continues at the current pace, Tuten is an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |

Raiders | Raiders have 'internally discussed' giving Ashton Jeanty a week off to heal Wed Oct 14, 12:46 PM
The Raiders have internally discussed giving RB Ashton Jeanty a week off to heal at some point, ESPN's Dan Graziano reported on Wednesday. "He does not want to take a week off and has pushed to play through the injuries," Graziano reported. Jeanty played through ankle and foot injuries in Sunday's loss to the Patriots after being a game-time decision.
| Footballguys view: On Wednesday, Raiders HC Klint Kubiak shot down the idea of Jeanty getting a week of rest. In fact, Kubiak said Jeanty is starting to "feel a lot better." We've got Jeanty in the low-end RB1 range against the Bills in Week 6. |

Titans | Tony Pollard not at Titans practice Wednesday Wed Oct 14, 12:28 PM
Titans RB Tony Pollard was not at practice on Wednesday. The official injury report listed it as a rest day. Pollard and RB Tyjae Spears split the running back snaps nearly evenly in Sunday's loss to the Texans.
| Footballguys view: Pollard has been missing practices during the week, only to show up on gameday and produce for the Titans. Pollard rushed 14 times for 52 yards in Tennessee's Week 5 loss to the Texans. In Week 6 against the Colts, we've got Pollard in the RB2/flex range. We'll see if he's moved before the trade deadline, as there are plenty of teams who could use a back like Pollard. |

Breece Hall 'week-to-week,' per Aaron Glenn Wed Oct 14, 12:26 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall (quad) is week-to-week, head coach Aaron Glenn said on Wednesday. Hall was ruled out for the Week 5 win over the Browns and has now been given no clear timeline for a return.
| Footballguys view: The Jets can easily continue with Braelon Allen as their lead back. We've got Allen as an RB2 with upside in Week 6 against the Patriots. |

Browns | Dylan Sampson designated for return, Monken says 'chance' he plays Sunday Wed Oct 14, 12:16 PM
Browns RB Dylan Sampson has been designated for return from injured reserve and is eligible to return to practice. Head coach Todd Monken said Wednesday there is a "chance" Sampson could play Sunday against the Ravens. Sampson was placed on injured reserve in September with a knee injury.
| Footballguys view: Jaleel McLaughlin could be the lead back for the Browns against the Ravens in Week 6. If Sampson does play, it's likely they ease him back into action after a four-week stint on IR. |

Browns | Quinshon Judkins walking around locker room without a boot Wed Oct 14, 11:55 AM
Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was walking around the locker room without a boot ahead of practice on Wednesday. Judkins left the stadium in a right walking boot after Sunday's loss to the Jets, and head coach Todd Monken called him "day-to-day" on Monday.
| Footballguys view: A day-to-day designation means Judkins could be closer to playing than some think. However, he might have to miss Week 6 against the Ravens. If that's the case, Jaleel McLaughlin would be in line to be the top back for the Browns. Let's see what Judkins can do on Friday. We see McLaughlin as an RB5/deep flex play if Judkins can't play in Week 6. |

Raheim Sanders to injured reserve with hip injury, Browns sign Audric Estimé Tue Oct 13, 04:28 PM
The Browns placed RB Raheim Sanders (hip) on injured reserve on Tuesday and signed RB Audric Estimé to the active roster from the Vikings' practice squad.
| Footballguys view: Sanders sustained the hip injury in Sunday's loss to the Jets; he has appeared in all five games this season. Estimé, a third-year player and 2024 fifth-round pick of the Broncos, has appeared in 20 career games with Denver and New Orleans, totaling 122 carries for 508 yards and three touchdowns, plus 17 receptions for 130 yards. Remember, with Quinshon Judkins dealing with an ankle issue and Dylan Sampson out with a knee injury, Jaleel McLaughlin and Estimé are the only healthy backs on the roster. We'll be watching Judkins' progress closely when Cleveland begins practicing on Wednesday. |

Vikings | Solak: Jordan Mason's 'impending return' shouldn't be underrated Tue Oct 13, 01:00 PM
ESPN's Ben Solak wrote on Tuesday that the impending return of Vikings RB Jordan Mason, described as a co-starting running back, should not be underrated.
| Footballguys view: Solak said the Vikings "want to do so much more in the designed running game with Murray and in the power play-action game with Mason as a bruising back." Aaron Jones Sr. has been impressive in Mason's absence, but it's fair to wonder if the workload he's seen the last three weeks is sustainable. Minnesota is on its bye in Week 6 and resumes play in Week 7. Proactive fantasy managers should be checking Mason's availability in their leagues. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson out 'multiple weeks' with high ankle sprain Tue Oct 13, 10:18 AM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson suffered a high ankle sprain during Sunday's win over the Raiders and is expected to miss multiple weeks, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported, citing league sources.
| Footballguys view: Henderson will not need surgery, and because he is regarded as a quick healer, the Patriots are hoping he returns "sooner rather than later." RB Corey Kiner moves up from No. 3 to No. 2 on the depth chart, with RB Lan Larison on the practice squad to fill the third spot. But Rhamondre Stevenson handled most of the backfield snaps following Henderson's departure last week. Expect that to continue. |

Steelers | McCarthy calls Jaylen Warren 'our featured player right now' Tue Oct 13, 01:49 AM
Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy said on Monday that RB Jaylen Warren is "our featured player right now" when asked whether a shared backfield of Warren and RB Rico Dowdle was his vision for the offense. Dowdle (toe) was inactive for Sunday's win over the Colts, in which Warren ran for 101 yards and a touchdown and added 87 receiving yards and another score.
| Footballguys view: The expectation entering the season was that Warren and Dowdle would split carries, with the latter potentially fitting better with who McCarthy wanted to be. But in the first five games, and especially with Dowdle out, it's clear Warren is the Steelers' best playmaker. On Sunday, he became the first player in Steelers history with a 50-yard rushing touchdown and an 80-yard receiving touchdown in the same game. On 21 touches, Warren forced five missed tackles and generated a career-high 130 yards after missed tackles. Warren is RB8 overall after five games. |

Bills | Cook runs for 111 yards, two TDs in win over Rams Tue Oct 13, 12:10 AM
Buffalo Bills RB James Cook III ran 25 times for 111 yards and two touchdowns, also caught 1 pass for 7 yards on 1 target and lost 1 fumble in Monday's 37-34 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He was projected for 15.4 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 23.3.
| Footballguys view: As USA Today suggested, Cook "looked electric at times" on Monday night, breaking some long runs to go with the two touchdowns. He continued to have issues with ball security, but the Bills will apparently live with that. They never went away from him in Los Angeles, and the result was an RB4 overall finish. |

Browns | Browns reportedly signing Audric Estime with Quinshon Judkins 'day-to-day' Mon Oct 12, 06:15 PM
The Browns are signing RB Audric Estimé to their active roster, according to multiple reports, and will need a corresponding move to clear a 53-man roster spot.
| Footballguys view: The move comes after Browns RB Quinshon Judkins left Sunday's loss to the Jets in a walking boot; HC Todd Monken said Monday that Judkins is day-to-day but would not rule anyone out for Week 6 against the Ravens. Judkins has 73 rushing attempts this season, with Raheim Sanders (9) and Jaleel McLaughlin (2) the only other Browns running backs to carry the ball. Estimé had 46 carries for 198 yards and one touchdown in seven games with the Saints last season. |

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet estimated limited, not expected to play Thursday vs. Broncos Mon Oct 12, 04:46 PM
Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet was estimated as limited on Monday's injury report as he continues working back from a torn ACL suffered in the 2025 postseason. The Seahawks did not practice Monday and released an estimated report ahead of Thursday's Week 6 game at Denver. Head coach Mike Macdonald has said Charbonnet is not expected to play Thursday. The team is approaching two weeks since designating Charbonnet for return, and his practice window closes in about a week and a half.

Browns | Quinshon Judkins 'day-to-day' with ankle tweak Mon Oct 12, 02:02 PM
Browns RB Quinshon Judkins had "a little tweak" in his ankle and is day-to-day, head coach Todd Monken said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Judkins left the stadium in a walking boot after Sunday's loss to the Jets. The day-to-day outlook is a positive for the Browns. Backup Raheim Sanders suffered a hip injury in this game, and Jaleel McLaughlin is the only other running back on the active roster. Dylan Sampson is eligible to come off injured reserve after being placed there following Week 1 due to a knee injury, but he was expected to miss significant time and won't be back for Week 6. We'll be following up on Judkins throughout the week as the Browns prepare to face the Ravens. |

Texans | DeMeco Ryans says Woody Marks 'will carry the load' while Montgomery is out Mon Oct 12, 12:27 PM
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Monday that RB Woody Marks will replace RB David Montgomery while Montgomery works his way back from a groin injury. "Dynamic, will carry the load for us," Ryans said of what Marks does for the offense.
| Footballguys view: Montgomery is considered week to week due to his injury. As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom suggested Sunday, Marks will be a priority pickup heading into a tough game against division-leading Jacksonville in London this week. The Texans' running game has been ineffective so far this season, but it has been even less effective with Montgomery in. |

Texans | David Montgomery 'week to week' with groin injury Mon Oct 12, 12:25 PM
Texans RB David Montgomery is "week to week" with a groin injury, coach DeMeco Ryans said on Monday. "Week to week, see how he continues to progress," Ryans said.
| Footballguys view: Montgomery was ruled out of Sunday's win over the Titans after suffering the injury, finishing with 11 yards on five carries. We'll continue to watch for more on Montgomery while Woody Marks moves into the lead role in the veteran's absence. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson undergoing MRI to determine time missed Mon Oct 12, 12:12 PM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) is having an MRI to determine whether he will miss time, and how much.
| Footballguys view: Henderson was ruled out of Sunday's win over the Raiders after leaving with the ankle injury. With Henderson sidelined, Rhamondre Stevenson saw the majority of the backfield snaps, while Corey Kiner mixed in but fumbled his first touch. We'll learn more about Henderson's status for the team's Week 6 game against the Jets, but expect a lot of Stevenson in this one, even if Henderson is available. |

Eagles | Will Shipley suffers partial plantar fascia tear, could miss 'multiple weeks' Mon Oct 12, 11:13 AM
Eagles RB Will Shipley suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia during Sunday's loss to the Jaguars and could be sidelined multiple weeks.
| Footballguys view: RB Saquon Barkley is dealing with a hamstring injury, and RB Tank Bigsby is on injured reserve, leaving the Eagles in a bind at the position. After Shipley was injured on Sunday, Dameon Pierce was the only healthy running back available. The Eagles play at home against the Panthers on Sunday. With four teams on bye this week, Pierce is a target of opportunity for fantasy managers. |

Broncos | J.K. Dobbins 'easily out-paced' RJ Harvey in snaps as Payton returns to play-calling Mon Oct 12, 08:38 AM
Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins "easily out-paced" RB RJ Harvey in offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Chargers, head coach Sean Payton's return to calling plays. Harvey was held to 7 yards on 3 carries in the game.
| Footballguys view: That said, Pro Football Focus notes that Harvey took 100% of two-minute drill snaps, giving him more playing time than last year and Tyler Badie less. Harvey has played 76.9% of two-minute drill snaps this season. But Dobbins was the clear workhorse, carrying the ball 18 times for 68 yards and a touchdown. The Broncos play the Seahawks on Thursday night this week. Expect Dobbins to continue leading the way on the ground. |
