Packers | Chris Brooks (ankle) 'still out' of practice Thursday Thu Oct 8, 12:57 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks (ankle) remained out of practice on Thursday. Brooks also did not practice on Wednesday, when head coach Matt LaFleur said he 'will be out today.'
| Footballguys view: Two "DNP" designations to begin the week says that Brooks is on the wrong side of questionable. Marshawn Lloyd should be the lead back for the Packers, and (so long as he doesn't fumble again) Kaleb Johnson will get some work in the backfield as well. |

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet remains limited, won't play this week Wed Oct 7, 06:46 PM
Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) remained limited at practice on Wednesday. Head coach Mike Macdonald said Charbonnet won't play this week against the 49ers.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet won't play this week, but there's a chance he'll play next week as the Seahawks play on Thursday Night Football against the Broncos in Week 6. He's limited at practice on Wednesday, so we'll see what the team decides about his Week 6 status early next week. Emanuel Wilson leads the Seattle rushing attack for one more week. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley (hamstring) among Eagles' DNPs on Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 06:09 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley did not practice on Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Jaguars in London. Barkley is dealing with a hamstring injury that has him "week-to-week".
| Footballguys view: The Eagles are fighting through a few things as they travel to London this week. RB Will Shipley is next up in the Eagles' backfield, with Tank Bigsby headed to injured reserve. We like Shipley as an RB3/flex play in Week 5 against the Jaguars. |

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Patriots HC Mike Vrabel did say there's a chance Stevenson plays in Week 5 after getting injured late in Week 4. If Stevenson can't play, TreVeyon Henderson would be in line for a large workload. |

Bears | RB D'Andre Swift (hip) did not practice Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (hip) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: With Swift banged up, the Bears can easily turn to Kyle Monangai again. After 30 carries a week ago, Monangai did get banged up with a toe injury. We'll see if Swift can get out there later in the week and suit up for Week 5 against the Packers. |

Broncos | Sean Payton calls J.K. Dobbins 'an important piece of what we're doing' Wed Oct 7, 04:57 PM
Broncos head coach Sean Payton praised RB J.K. Dobbins on Wednesday. "He's an important piece of what we're doing," Payton said.
| Footballguys view: The Broncos can't run the ball effectively, and Dobbins looked either injured or washed. Have injuries finally caught up with him? The Broncos don't get rookie Jonah Coleman back for another couple of weeks, so Dobbins - if healthy enough - will continue to get the bulk of the carries. RJ Harvey is great in space, but we're seeing he's most effective as a receiving back. |

Jets | Breece Hall does not practice Wednesday ahead of Week 5 vs. Browns Wed Oct 7, 04:34 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall did not practice on Wednesday as the team began preparations for Sunday's Week 5 game against the Browns.
| Footballguys view: Hall was ruled out for the Jets' Week 4 game against the Bears and was described as "week-to-week" earlier Wednesday. A DNP on Wednesday does not automatically count Hall out, but it's not a great start. We'll see Braelon Allen continue as the Jets' lead back if Hall needs to miss more time. |

Commanders | Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) limited in Wednesday practice Wed Oct 7, 04:18 PM
Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Croskey-Merritt rushed nine times for 15 yards in the Commanders' Week 4 loss to the Colts, adding two catches for 35 yards. They worked in four running backs last week (including Kaytron Allen, Austin Ekeler, and Craig Reynolds), so Croskey-Merritt will continue working in a committee if he's out there in Week 5 against the Giants. We've got him in the RB3/flex range in PPR formats. |

Saints | Alvin Kamara (back) a non-participant Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 04:13 PM
Saints RB Alvin Kamara (back) did not participate on Wednesday, head coach Kellen Moore said. Kamara hurt his knee during Monday night's loss to the Falcons but returned to the game, running for 23 yards and two touchdowns. The Saints host the Vikings on Sunday.

Packers | Matt LaFleur says Chris Brooks 'will be out today' at practice Wed Oct 7, 12:31 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks will not practice on Wednesday, head coach Matt LaFleur said. "He'll be out today," LaFleur said of Brooks' injury.
| Footballguys view: Brooks suffered an ankle injury against the Buccaneers on Sunday. The Packers just can't catch a break at the running back position. MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson will split time if Brooks can't play. Lloyd should be the starter, but he's mostly been unimpressive this year with a larger opportunity. Johnson showed some explosion last week, although he did have a costly fumble near pay dirt. The Packers rushing attack is a work-in-progress to say the least. |

Eagles sign RB Dameon Pierce to active roster Wed Oct 7, 12:01 PM
Eagles RB Dameon Pierce is signing to the Eagles' active roster from their practice squad, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported.
| Footballguys view: Both Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby are out of action for the Eagles, so Pierce could get an immediate opportunity as the no.2 back behind Will Shipley. We like Shipley as an RB3/flex play for Fantasy GMs in Week 5. |

Patriots | Mack Hollins (calf) lone injury of concern, Chism in line for 'extended reps' Tue Oct 6, 07:18 AM
Patriots WR Mack Hollins, who suffered a non-contact calf injury in the third quarter of Sunday's 29-26 win over the Bills and never returned, was the only player unable to finish the game whose status is now in question, which head coach Mike Vrabel also said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: If Hollins is limited or unavailable this week, second-year WR Efton Chism III is expected to see extended reps in practice and on game day against the Raiders; Chism had two big catches on the game-winning drive against Buffalo, including a 23-yard touchdown. We'll continue to watch for more. |

Eagles | DeVonta Smith 'more likely' to miss London game; Shipley only healthy RB Tue Oct 6, 03:00 AM
Early indications are that Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) will miss more than one game, and it seems more likely he won't be able to play against the Jaguars in London in Week 5.
| Footballguys view: With Smith out last Sunday, Darius Cooper was the prime beneficiary. He outsnapped rookie WR Makai Lemon as the team's WR2 in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams, turning a team-high seven targets into three catches for 33 yards and two touchdowns while also playing a significant special teams role. Dontayvion Wicks played the most snaps of any Eagles receiver but ranked third in targets with five. Expect this pecking order to remain in place if Smith is out again in London. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley 'week-to-week' with hamstring Tue Oct 6, 01:12 AM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley is considered "week-to-week" with the hamstring injury he suffered in the first quarter of Sunday's loss to the Rams, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported.
| Footballguys view: Head coach Nick Sirianni said Monday, "We'll see," when asked about Barkley's availability for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London, adding the team would "have more answers for you probably Wednesday." With Tank Bigsby undergoing core muscle surgery and heading to injured reserve, Will Shipley, who rushed six times for 23 yards against the Rams, is the only healthy running back on the active roster. Jaydon Blue, Dameon Pierce, and Carson Steele are on the practice squad. |

Bears | Ben Johnson says Kyle Monangai (thumb) should be OK, 'day-to-day' Mon Oct 5, 04:06 PM
Bears RB Kyle Monangai's thumb injury is more of a day-to-day issue, and he should be OK, head coach Ben Johnson said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Monangai suffered the injury in Sunday's win over the Jets, when he ran for 146 yards and two touchdowns. The running back told reporters after Sunday's game that he would have further testing today, so Johnson's answer has likely been informed by those tests. We'll continue to follow up. |

Buccaneers | Bowles: Bucs need to 'find a way to split the three backs', Tucker to 'earn a few reps' Mon Oct 5, 03:47 PM
Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said the team needs to get RB Sean Tucker more involved after his two-yard touchdown run and fourth-down conversion in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Packers. "He needs to earn a few reps. I mean, we've got to find a way to split the three backs kind of... it doesn't have to be equally, but, you know, a hot hand should be able to ride a little bit longer," Bowles said.
| Footballguys view: RB Bucky Irving started, led the team with 61 rushing yards and played 37 of 63 offensive snaps, while RB Kenny Gainwell played 27 snaps with three handoffs and caught a touchdown pass, and Tucker played three snaps, carrying three times for 10 yards. Irving is likely to remain the lead back as long as he's healthy, but it sounds like a shift in approach is coming. |

Seahawks | Emanuel Wilson plays 60 percent of snaps, Holani 37 percent in win over Chargers Mon Oct 5, 02:30 PM
Seahawks RB Emanuel Wilson played 60 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Chargers, with RB George Holani at 37 percent while rookie RB Jadarian Price was out.
| Footballguys view: Wilson turned his work into 21 carries for 81 yards and a touchdown, plus three receptions for 39 yards and a receiving touchdown. While the Seahawks are visiting with free-agent RB Joe Mixon, with Price out at least three more weeks on IR, and Zach Charbonnet practicing but not activated, Wilson could have another solid role in Week 5 -- and perhaps beyond. |
