Cardinals | Allgeier out-snaps Jeremiyah Love, who is 'frustrated with myself' as ankle is managed Mon Oct 5, 02:08 PM
Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier out-snapped rookie RB Jeremiyah Love 36-30 in Sunday's loss to the Giants, and head coach Mike LaFleur said Allgeier was on the field for the final drive mostly because of his pass protection.
| Footballguys view: Love still led the team with 14 carries for 63 yards, while Allgeier ran 8 times for 42 yards, but Love played just 11 second-half snaps and had two red-zone snaps to Allgeier's 10. As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom noted, the Cardinals drafted Love to be the lead back. It's heading in that direction, and even if the rushing workload isn't as dominant as we'd like at this point, his receiving role will help smooth out the overall production. But there will be some week-to-week variance for Love and Allgeier in coming weeks. |

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet (knee) won't play in Week 5 against the 49ers Mon Oct 5, 01:02 PM
Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) won't play in Week 5 against the 49ers, head coach Mike Macdonald said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet was designated to return from the physically unable to perform list last week and began practicing on Thursday. The team has until Oct. 22 to activate him. Meanwhile, FOX Sports insider Jay Glazer reported on Sunday that the Seahawks were planning to visit with free-agent RB Joe Mixon. Remember, Jadarian Price was placed on IR over the weekend. He's out at least four weeks. Emanuel Wilson worked as lead back against the Chargers and was effective in that role. Expect the former Packer to continue to get the bulk of the work until we get resolution on Charbonnet. |

Panthers | Hubbard runs for 122 yards, two TDs in win over Lions Sun Oct 4, 11:45 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard ran 20 times for 122 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 1 pass for 7 yards on 2 targets in Sunday's 32-26 win over the Detroit Lions. He was projected for 16.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 25.4.

Bears | Kyle Monangai has thumb injury after 146-yard, two-TD day vs. Jets Sun Oct 4, 07:58 PM
Bears RB Kyle Monangai has a thumb injury that is currently being evaluated, head coach Ben Johnson said after Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets.
| Footballguys view: Monangai took over as the lead back after RB D'Andre Swift lost a fumble in the third quarter. Monangai met the media after the game, and he said he'd find out on Monday about his thumb. When asked when he hurt it and whether it was jammed, he said: "I couldn't even tell you. I just looked down at my hand, and I said, 'Oh, that hurts.'" Monangai finished the game with a career-high 30 carries, 146 yards, with two touchdowns (also a career-high), and one reception for 4 yards. |

Seahawks | Wilson runs for 81 yards, two TDs in win over Chargers Sun Oct 4, 07:47 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Emanuel Wilson ran 21 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and also caught 3 passes for 39 yards and a touchdown on 4 targets in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He was projected for 9.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 25.5.
| Footballguys view: Wilson got the nod as the lead back after rookie Jadarian Price was placed on IR. With Price out for at least four games, FOX Sports' Jay Glazer said the team will have Joe Mixon in for a visit. The team also opened Zach Charbonnet's practice window on Oct. 1. They have 21 days to add him to the active roster. But until we see significant changes, Wilson will be of interest to fantasy managers. |

Chiefs | Walker runs for 177 yards, two TDs in win over Raiders Sun Oct 4, 07:47 PM
Kansas City Chiefs RB Ken Walker III ran 22 times for 177 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 1 pass for 2 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He was projected for 20.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 30.4.
| Footballguys view: Walker's dominant run continues unabated. With 30.9 PPR points against the Raiders, Walker's four-game average sits at 27.5 points per game. He's outperforming expectations, which were relatively high heading into the season (he was drafted as RB10). The Chiefs have a Week 5 bye, so fantasy managers need a plan to cover for Walker's absence. |

Rams | Williams runs for 80 yards, two TDs, 67 receiving in win over Eagles Sun Oct 4, 04:32 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams ran 16 times for 80 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 10 passes for 67 yards on 13 targets in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He was projected for 15.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 31.7.
| Footballguys view: Williams drew a personal foul when he got walloped by Cooper DeJean after going airborne out of bounds in the fourth quarter with the Rams down multiple scores. He took over after that and would not be denied with the ball in his hands, scoring both touchdowns in the last five minutes that put the Rams over the top. He is leaving Blake Corum in the driveway as Williams was the heart of this team in a signature road win. Congrats if you took him in the third round. |

Eagles | RB Tank Bigsby leaves game late in fourth quarter Sun Oct 4, 04:16 PM
Eagles RB Tank Bigsby was injured in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Rams with 3:59 left.
| Footballguys view: He appeared to suffer a groin injury, but the team didn't give an update. Bigsby didn't do much immediately after replacing Saquon Barkley when he left with a hamstring injury, but he got warmed up in the second half before getting shaken up on a hit from Byron Young. We hope to know more about his status before making final decisions on waiver wire recommendations this week. If Bigsby and Barkley are both out in Week 5, Will Shipley will be a what-the-heck RB2/Flex against the Jaguars. |

Cowboys | Williams runs for 62 yards, three TDs in win over Texans Sun Oct 4, 04:16 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Javonte Williams ran 19 times for 62 yards and three touchdowns and also caught 5 passes for 21 yards on 5 targets in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Houston Texans. He was projected for 15.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 28.8.
| Footballguys view: The Cowboys running game got on track last week against the Ravens in Brazil, but Williams had a bigger fantasy football outburst in Week 4 thanks to the passing game getting up and down the field on the vaunted Texans defense, setting him up with beaucoup scoring opportunities, which he converted three of. Williams is a solid RB1 who was an excellent investment of a third-round pick in your draft heading into a Thursday night home game against the Bucs. |

Bears | Monangai runs for 146 yards, two TDs in win over Jets Sun Oct 4, 04:01 PM
Chicago Bears RB Kyle Monangai ran 30 times for 146 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 1 pass for 4 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 23-12 win over the New York Jets. He was projected for 9.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 27.5.
| Footballguys view: D'Andre Swift wasn't on the injury report, but he missed a practice with a knee issue that Ben Johnson characterized as typical wear and tear. Swift also fumbled in this game, which could have played into Monangai taking over work in the second half after Swift had a costly goal line fumble in the Week 2 loss to the Vikings. Johnson also could have decided to rest Swift with Monangai running hot and the starter getting up slowly after his fumble. Swift was also stopped at the goal line in Week 2. Monangai might be the biggest winner in fantasy leagues in Week 4, but Swift can still be a weekly RB2/Flex play with this running game getting into gear and Caleb Williams' return coming soon. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley sidelined by hamstring injury in first quarter Sun Oct 4, 02:31 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was injured in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Rams with 11:48 left. He will not return (hamstring).
| Footballguys view: Barkley has left two games with injuries in four weeks. He returned after suffering a shoulder stinger in Week 2, but didn't add much in the second half. This time, he won't have a chance to even do that. Tank Bigsby got most of the work over Will Shipley once Barkley left, and he warmed up down the stretch, but then he appeared to suffer a groin injury late. The Jaguars are up next week, and even though that's a revenge game for Bigsby, he's not going to be more than a flex play next week after the Jaguars smothered the Bengals running game in Week 4 -- that is if he is even available. Will Shipley would be a what-the-heck RB2/Flex if both Barkley and Bigsby are out next week. |

Commanders | With White out, Austin Ekeler active vs. Colts Sun Oct 4, 08:16 AM
Commanders RB Austin Ekeler is active for Sunday's game against the Colts. With RB Rachaad White out, Ekeler can help as the third-down back and kick returner, roles in which he has excelled. Ekeler is in a new system and only arrived this week, so his workload from scrimmage is uncertain.

Titans | Tyjae Spears (ankle) 'expected to play' Sunday against Ravens Sun Oct 4, 07:05 AM
Titans RB Tyjae Spears, listed as questionable with an ankle injury, is expected to play on Sunday against the Ravens, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported. Spears returned to full practice on Friday despite drawing the questionable designation.

Seahawks | Rookie RB Jadarian Price to IR, out at least four weeks Sat Oct 3, 03:54 PM
The Seahawks are placing first-round pick RB Jadarian Price on injured reserve due to the chest injury he aggravated at practice this week. Price will now miss a minimum of four weeks. He had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
| Footballguys view: Price will miss at least the next four games, including matchups against the San Francisco 49ers, Denver Broncos, and Kansas City Chiefs, making the return of Zach Charbonnet, who was designated to return to practice this week, even more meaningful. Charbonnet's status will be something to watch over the next two weeks. Taking Price's place on the roster is Velus Jones Jr., who was signed off the practice squad Saturday afternoon. |

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet seen working to the side early in Friday's practice Fri Oct 2, 06:05 PM
Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet was shown on video working to the side early in practice on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet was designated to return from the PUP list on Thursday, opening his practice window. The Seahawks have a 21-day practice window to activate Charbonnet. He'll need to be on the active 53-man roster by Oct. 22. |

Seahawks | Seahawks RB Jadarian Price will miss Sunday's game Fri Oct 2, 04:39 PM
The Seahawks will face the Chargers without rookie running back Jadarian Price.
| Footballguys view: Price appeared on track to play this week, but aggravated his chest/shoulder injury in practice and will not play. In his absence, George Holani and Emanuel Wilson should split the duties, both garnering RB3 rankings in Week 4. Zach Charbonnet returned to practice this week, and if Price misses extended time, his return could be a huge benefit. We'll wait for more news on Price's injury, but fantasy managers can replace Price in their lineups until then. |

Titans | RB Tyjae Spears returns to full practice Fri Oct 2, 04:00 PM
Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited in an earlier session this week.
| Footballguys view: A full practice makes it almost certain that Spears will play this weekend. With Tony Pollard also expected to be active, touches will likely be split between the two backs. With how the Titans' offense has struggled to start this season, it's hard to rely on any running back as more than a desperation RB3. |

Bears | D'Andre Swift carries no injury designation for Week 4; Caleb Williams out Fri Oct 2, 03:00 PM
Bears RB D'Andre Swift has no injury designation for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Jets. QB Caleb Williams and OL Braxton Jones are ruled out, and S Cam Lewis is doubtful after not practicing on Friday. DT Shemar Turner, LB Noah Sewell and CB Kyler Gordon, all on the PUP list, were full participants in practice.
| Footballguys view: Swift unexpectedly popped up on Thursday's injury report as a DNP for a knee injury, but it sounds more like a veteran rest day than a true DNP. Especially after Swift fully participated in Wednesday's walkthrough, Thursday's absence was a surprise. It's not uncommon for the Bears to manage Swift's workload during the week. He is off to a blistering start and is currently the RB7 in PPR leagues. Get him in your lineup as a back-end RB1. |

Titans | Tony Pollard 'good to go', Spears heading 'in the right direction' Fri Oct 2, 02:33 PM
Titans RB Tony Pollard (foot) practiced again on Friday and is good to go for Sunday's game at the Ravens. RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) also practiced Friday, and head coach Robert Saleh said he is heading in the right direction. S Kevin Winston Jr., added to the injury report Thursday with a shoulder injury, did not practice Friday; Saleh said Winston will be monitored: "Obviously we'll see how he feels." DT John Franklin-Myers (back) practiced again Friday and is good to go.
| Footballguys view: Pollard and Spears both opened the week as DNPs, but both running backs returned to practice on Thursday. Pollard's participation was listed as full, while Spears has been limited. The Titans have a tough matchup against the Ravens this week, but Pollard would be a decent volume-based RB2 if Spears can't go. If Spears is active, a split backfield in this matchup could be hard to predict, and both running backs would fall into the back-end RB4 tier. |

Bills | Keon Coleman 'good to go' vs. Patriots, Ray Davis and Christian Benford questionable Fri Oct 2, 02:01 PM
Bills WR Keon Coleman (ankle) should be "good to go" for Sunday's game against the Patriots, head coach Joe Brady said on Friday. RB Ray Davis (hamstring) and CB Christian Benford (toe) are questionable, and DT T.J. Sanders is doubtful.
| Footballguys view: Coleman missed Wednesday's practice, logged a limited day on Thursday, and was cleared after Friday's practice. That's about the best-case scenario you can hope for. Coleman had one of the best games of his young career in Week 2, catching all six of his targets for 63 yards. His next game was cut short by this ankle injury, but he's "good to go" for Week 4. He's a shaky WR4, but he has upside if desperate fantasy managers are looking for it. |

Bears | Caleb Williams ruled out vs. Jets, no starting QB named Fri Oct 2, 12:52 PM
Bears QB Caleb Williams has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Jets, head coach Ben Johnson said on Friday, though the team did not announce a starting quarterback.
| Footballguys view: Ben Johnson is showing a bit of gamesmanship by not declaring a starter, but Tyson Bagent has been taking first-team snaps most of the week, and expectations are that he should start. Johnson said earlier in the week that "there was a reason why Tyson ended training camp as our No. 2 quarterback." A masterful game plan with Case Keenum helped the Bears upset the Eagles on Monday night last week. This week's matchup against the Jets could lead to more surprises with a new quarterback. Bagent brings quickness as a processor but also has much more mobility than Keenum offered. If Bagent starts, he'll fall into the QB2 conversation and be a worthy start in two-quarterback and superflex leagues. |

Buccaneers | Baker Mayfield ruled out vs. Packers, Bucky Irving will play Fri Oct 2, 12:28 PM
Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers. DE Rueben Bain Jr., CB Benjamin Morrison and TE Ko Kieft have also been ruled out. RB Bucky Irving, DE Yaya Diaby and LB Josiah Trotter will play.
| Footballguys view: Mayfield is expected to miss at least two weeks, and possibly more, as he manages his recovery from last week's dislocated thumb. Undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels will make his first-ever start against the Packers this week. Given the uncertainty at quarterback, all of the Buccaneers' pass catchers should be docked slightly. Irving practiced every day this week and can be fired up as a high-end RB2. |

Buccaneers | Bucky Irving (glute) working Friday, 'didn't seem to have any issues' Fri Oct 2, 11:13 AM
Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (glute) was working at Friday's practice and "didn't seem to have any issues."
| Footballguys view: Irving has been limited throughout this week with a glute injury, but it's relieving to hear an optimistic report. Irving is PPR's RB15 through the first three weeks. If he's starting, get him in your lineup as a high-end RB2. |

Dolphins | Jeff Hafley says Jaylen Wright 'should be good to go' for Week 4 Fri Oct 2, 10:47 AM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Vikings, head coach Jeff Hafley said on Friday. Wright improved to full participation at Thursday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Wright missed last week's game, leading to uncertainty about how this week's backfield will look without De'Von Achane. In the one game Achane missed last year, touches were split between Wright and Ollie Gordon II, with a slight lean toward Wright in both rushing and receiving. A new staff could shake up the depth chart, but the impression coming out of camp was that Wright had secured the RB2 spot. Wright hasn't had much work in his young NFL career, but he's a speedster who can bring a similar impact to Achane on stretch plays and outside zone runs. Gordon is more of a between-the-tackles runner, offering a natural complement. Both backs are risky RB3s in Week 4, and we'll hope for more clarity heading into Week 5. |
Jaylen Wright player page
Jets | Breece Hall, Adonai Mitchell, Mason Taylor ruled out for Sunday vs. Bears Fri Oct 2, 10:46 AM
Jets RB Breece Hall, WR Adonai Mitchell and TE Mason Taylor have been ruled out for Sunday's Week 4 game at the Bears. LG Dylan Parham and LB Kiko Mauigoa are also out. Hall, Mitchell and Taylor all missed practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Hall is managing a quad injury, Mitchell a finger, and Taylor a thumb. Their absences most directly benefit Braelon Allen and Kenyon Sadiq. Allen should be the team's primary running back, and Sadiq will have a chance to build on a huge Week 3. Allen is a high-end RB2, and Sadiq lands near the top of the tight-end streaming tier. In what could be a shootout against the Bears, get both in your lineups where you have them. |

Jets | Braelon Allen taking majority of practice reps with Breece Hall (quad) sidelined Fri Oct 2, 08:10 AM
Jets RB Braelon Allen has been taking the majority of reps in practice ahead of the Week 4 game at Chicago as RB Breece Hall deals with a quadriceps injury sustained late in Sunday's game at Detroit.
| Footballguys view: Allen is a young, talented back who hasn't had much chance to showcase his upside since the Jets drafted him in 2024. Allen got very little work as a 20-year-old rookie. Years 2 and 3 were plagued with injuries. Now Allen will have a chance to be the lead back while Breece Hall is out. Allen's combination of size, speed, and athleticism makes him a very intriguing play, especially this week against a soft Bears run defense. |

Seahawks | Jadarian Price DNP with chest injury Thursday, Charbonnet and Okada return Thu Oct 1, 07:16 PM
Seahawks RB Jadarian Price did not practice on Thursday because of a chest injury, a step back after he was limited on Wednesday. RB Zach Charbonnet returned to practice Thursday after being designated to return from the PUP list. S Ty Okada, who did not practice Wednesday, also returned on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: With Charbonnet back at practice, the team opened a 21-day window for him to return to the lineup (or get shut down for the year). We'll see if Price can play in Week 4, and this DNP on Thursday is not a great sign. Emanuel Wilson and George Holani would do more if Price can't play (and Charbonnet is not quite ready to return in Week 4). |
Jadarian Price player page
Dolphins | Jaylen Wright (foot) upgraded to full participant on Thursday Thu Oct 1, 05:32 PM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright (foot) was upgraded to a full participant in practice on Thursday. He had been a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Wright's stinger was previously removed from the injury report, leaving only the foot issue.
| Footballguys view: The matchup against the Vikings on Sunday is "not great Bob." However, Wright has big-play ability anytime he touches the ball and is listed atop the depth chart for the Dolphins. We've got Wright as an RB4 in PPR formats this week. Ollie Gordon IIwill work in tandem with Wright, and we think he's in a similar flex/RB4 range. |
Jaylen Wright player page
Vikings | Caleb Douglas, Justin Jefferson miss second straight practice Thu Oct 1, 05:27 PM
Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas (ankle) and Vikings WR Justin Jefferson (ankle) both missed practice for a second straight day on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Jefferson needs to practice on Friday for Fantasy GMs to feel good about his availability against the Dolphins. Everyone needs to keep an eye on his status, and there's a chance the team just calls him a game-time decision. |

Jets | Breece Hall (knee) misses practice again Thursday Thu Oct 1, 04:46 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) did not participate in practice on Thursday. Hall also missed Wednesday's practice after being labeled "week-to-week" following an MRI on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Hall is week-to-week with this knee injury, and it doesn't seem like he'll be ready for Week 4's game against the Bears. Braelon Allen should be the starter for the Jets this week, and we like him as an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs. |
Breece Hall player page
Titans | Tony Pollard (foot) upgraded to full practice Thursday Thu Oct 1, 04:32 PM
Titans RB Tony Pollard (foot) was upgraded to a full participant in practice on Thursday after he did not practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: The "DNP" on Wednesday is in the past with a full practice on Thursday. Without any setbacks, Pollard is good for Week 4. We've got Pollard in the RB2/flex range for this week's contest against the Ravens on Sunday. |
Tony Pollard player page
49ers | Mike Evans (ribs) on side field, Hodge not seen; McCaffrey back practicing Thu Oct 1, 04:11 PM
49ers WR Mike Evans (ribs) worked on the side field at Thursday's practice, while WR KhaDarel Hodge (knee) was not seen. RB Christian McCaffrey (rest) and LT Trent Williams (neck) were practicing in the early portion. DE Nick Bosa (knee/calf) and rookie DT James Thompson Jr. (ankle) were not seen, while LB Dre Greenlaw (quad) and DE Keion White (hamstring) were on the side field.
| Footballguys view: The team wants Evans to play on Sunday against the Broncos. If he does play, CB Patrick Surtain II is likely to cover the veteran receiver. McCaffrey just got some rest on Wednesday, and he's in line for a large workload (and potentially huge production) against a Broncos defense that has struggled to stop the run. |

Vikings | RB Aaron Jones Sr. limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Sep 30, 06:15 PM
Vikings RB Aaron Jones Sr. was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Jones had 17 rushes for 58 yards in the Vikings' Week 3 win against the Buccaneers, while also snaring five catches for 34 yards. The Vikings are feeding him the rock early and often. Against the Dolphins in Week 4, Jones is an RB2 with upside. |

Panthers | RB Chuba Hubbard did not practice Wednesday Wed Sep 30, 06:15 PM
Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Hubbard is getting an expanded workload with Jonathon Brooks on IR. He rushed 19 times for 82 yards in the Panthers' Week 3 loss to the Browns, and Hubbard also had four receptions for 28 yards. He's getting some rest on Wednesday with an eye on a healthy workload on Sunday night against the Lions. We like him as an RB1/RB2 option, so make sure he is at least limited on Friday. |
Chuba Hubbard player page
Buccaneers | RB Bucky Irving (lower body) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Sep 30, 06:15 PM
Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (lower body) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Irving should be out there against the Packers in Week 4. The team needs all the help they can get on offense with undrafted rookie QB Jalon Daniels set to start. We've got Irving as an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs in PPR leagues. |
Bucky Irving player page
Dolphins | Jaylen Wright to be limited, Caleb Douglas will not practice Wednesday Wed Sep 30, 12:32 PM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright will be a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, head coach Jeff Hafley said. Rookie WR Caleb Douglas will not practice. Wright missed Sunday's game against the Chiefs, and Douglas was ruled out for that game. De'Von Achane was placed on injured reserve on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs are looking to Wright, especially if they didn't get Ollie Gordon II on the waiver wire this week. The Dolphins are likely to use an RBBC featuring both Gordon and Wright (if healthy). Wright said he was "very close" to playing in Week 3, so we imagine he'll be out there in Week 4 barring any setback. We see Gordon as an RB3/flex option and Wright is a big-play RB4/deep flex option for Fantasy GMs in Week 4. |

Titans | Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears won't practice Wednesday Wed Sep 30, 12:28 PM
Titans RBs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears will not practice on Wednesday. Spears limped off the field during Sunday's Week 3 loss at the Giants, and Pollard dealt with an ankle issue last week before avoiding an injury designation.
| Footballguys view: Both missed practice last week, but both played in Week 3. Spears seemed like he was a bit more banged up a week ago, then he left the Giants game. Circle back to see what Pollard does on Friday, and Fantasy GMs should plan on him being an RB3/flex option against the Ravens. For what it's worth, Titans HC Robert Saleh said he isn't concerned about either's injury status. |

Breece Hall, Mason Taylor, Adonai Mitchell all 'week to week', miss Wednesday practice Wed Sep 30, 12:10 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall, TE Mason Taylor, WR Adonai Mitchell, LB Kiko Mauigoa and G Dylan Parham did not practice on Wednesday. Head coach Aaron Glenn said all five are "week to week." Glenn added there is a "good chance" S Minkah Fitzpatrick plays Sunday against the Bears.
| Footballguys view: Braelon Allen would be the top back for the Jets if Hall is out against the Bears on Sunday. We like Allen as a runner, and Fantasy GMs should consider him an RB2 option if he gets the starting nod. Mitchell was out of action in Week 3, and a missed practice on Wednesday means he may not yet be ready to return. Let's see if he can get out there later in the week. Garrett Wilson and Kenyon Sadiq would do more if Mitchell has to miss another game. |

| Footballguys view: White may have to miss the Commanders' game against the Colts this week. Quinn did not say if Austin Ekeler, signed earlier this week, would be available to play in Week 4. Jacory Croskey-Merritt is set to get more playing time if White can't play and Ekeler is not yet ready to play. We like Croskey-Merritt as an RB3/flex option for Fantasy GMs out there. |

Steelers | Rico Dowdle (toe) misses practice again, trending toward missing Week 4 Wed Sep 30, 12:42 AM
Steelers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) did not practice on Tuesday and is trending toward missing Thursday's Week 4 game at the Browns. RB Jaylen Warren had 20 touches and 176 total yards as the lead back in Week 3 with Dowdle out.
| Footballguys view: The Steelers play against the Browns on Thursday night, so on a short week they'll likely be without Dowdle. That means Warren should be in line for a large workload again. We see Warren as a top-10 option at the running back position in Week 4. |

Commanders | RB Austin Ekeler signs with Commanders Tue Sep 29, 04:31 PM
The Washington Commanders signed RB Austin Ekeler.
| Footballguys view: Ekeler spent the last two seasons with the club. He suffered a torn Achilles in Week 2 of last season. He had appeared in 12 games with six starts for Washington in 2024, recording 733 yards from scrimmage with four total touchdowns. "We'll get him into the mix and see what the next three days look like," head coach Dan Quinn said. Doesn't sound like anything is guaranteed, but we'll watch for more. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love's role increasing, LaFleur cites 'hot hand' Tue Sep 29, 01:36 AM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love handled 26 touches in Sunday's 36-30 loss to the 49ers, more than his first two games combined, finishing with 21 carries for 90 yards and five receptions for 19 yards and a touchdown.
| Footballguys view: RB Tyler Allgeier, still listed as RB1 on the team's depth chart, had two carries and four catches on 31 snaps. "It was kind of more the hot hand, too," head coach Mike LaFleur said, adding that the backfield split will always be a week-by-week decision dictated by the game plan. We all know the desired outcome here. The Cardinals drafted Love to be the lead back. It's heading in that direction, and even if the rushing workload isn't as dominant as we'd like at this point, his receiving role will help smooth out the overall production. |

Seahawks | Macdonald: Seahawks still trust Jadarian Price; rookie must protect the ball Tue Sep 29, 01:30 AM
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Monday that the team has not lost faith in starting RB Jadarian Price after the rookie first-round pick lost a fumble for the second week in a row on Sunday. Macdonald said Price must "take care of the ball."
| Footballguys view: When Price lost a fumble in a win over Arizona, the Seahawks went right back to him on the first play of their next drive. They didn't show the same patience after Price fumbled at the 11:06 mark of the first quarter of Sunday's loss in Washington. His next carry wasn't until the 12:49 mark of the third quarter, though he was targeted twice in that span. Price (five carries for 15 yards) played 19 of Seattle's 67 offensive snaps, while Emanuel Wilson (nine carries for 14 yards) and George Holani (eight touches for 58 yards) each played 24 snaps. |

Dolphins | Dolphins officially place De'Von Achane on IR Mon Sep 28, 04:02 PM
The Dolphins officially placed RB De'Von Achane on injured reserve on Monday, among other roster moves. Achane suffered a torn ACL and is out for the season.
| Footballguys view: This move was expected after we learned earlier today that Achane tore his ACL in the loss to Kansas City. Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright, who was inactive due to injury in Week 3, are the top fallbacks on the active roster. Jarquez Hunter could be elevated from the practice squad as well, but expect Gordon and Wright to share Achane's workload. |
