Jacobs rushed 14 times for 39 yards and secured his only target for 12 yards in the Raiders' 20-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Jacobs was the only Raiders back to log a carry, but unlike the first two contests of head coach Antonio Pierce's interim tenure when the team enjoyed a game script favorable to the run game, the situation predictably shifted some toward the air attack against Miami. Jacobs also found running room at a premium, and the running game could again play second fiddle in a Week 12 home matchup versus the Chiefs.

Walker was forced out of Sunday's game against the Rams with an oblique injury.

Prior to his exit from the contest, Walker recorded four carries for 18 yards and one catch for minus-2 yards. In his absence, Zach Charbonnet is in line to log added backfield touches versus Los Angeles.

Dillon rushed 14 times for 29 yards and caught all four of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers.

Dillon saw his workload increase after Aaron Jones went down with a knee injury and backup Emanuel Wilson exited with a shoulder issue during the first half. Although Dillon wasn't particularly productive and rookie wideout Jayden Reed actually led the Packers with three rushes for 46 yards and a score, Dillon could garner a starter's share of touches if Jones is sidelined going forward. Despite underwhelming in a similar situation earlier this season, Dillon entered Sunday with better recent production, which should have his stock trending upward ahead of Thursday's Week 12 visit to the Lions.

Following Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers, coach Matt LaFleur noted that he doesn't think the knee injury Jones suffered in the contest is long term, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Per Demovsky, LaFleur relayed that Jones -- who was limited to four carries and one catch Sunday -- was in good spirits following the contest, but the running back's status will nonetheless need to be monitored closely as Thursday's game against the Lions approaches. If Jones ends up sidelined in Week 12, AJ Dillon would be in line for an expanded workload.

Singletary rushed 22 times for 112 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for six yards in the Texans' 21-16 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

Singletary got the starting call once again with Dameon Pierce (ankle) still sidelined and delivered a highly efficient performance the likes of which his injured teammate hasn't come close to generating this season. Singletary also added his second touchdown in as many weeks with an 11-yard run in the second quarter, rounding out his fantasy production nicely. Even if Pierce, who returned to a limited practice Friday, is able to suit up in a Week 12 matchup against the Jaguars, the pecking order in the backfield may have shifted in Singletary's favor for the time being.

Pollard rushed 12 times for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-10 win over the Panthers. He also caught four of five targets for 19 yards.

Pollard's performance was highlighted by a 21-yard touchdown rush to begin the fourth quarter, his first touchdown since Week 1. With his rushing yardage also qualifying as his most since Week 3, Pollard took advantage of a favorable matchup Sunday. He'll strive to keep his positive momentum going in Thursday's game against the Commanders, who allowed 140 yards and two touchdowns to Giants tailback Saquon Barkley in Week 11.

Barkley rushed 14 times for 83 yards while catching four of five targets for 57 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-19 win over Washington.

Barkley opened the scoring with a 24-yard receiving touchdown, on which he showed off his downfield pass-catching ability by securing a back-shoulder throw and keeping his feet from going out of bounds. He added a five-yard receiving score in the fourth quarter to give the Giants a 21-12 lead. Barkley's second touchdown came four plays after he broke free for a season-long 36-yard run, and he added a 31-yard run on New York's next drive. Despite rushing for minus-2 yards in the first half, Barkley finished with 77-plus yards for the fifth time in his last six appearances. He should remain the focal point of a Giants offense quarterbacked by Tommy DeVito in Week 12 against the 2-8 Patriots.

Ekeler rushed 10 times for 64 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Packers. He also caught two of three targets for six yards.

Ekeler was surprisingly held at bay by a Packers defense that has struggled against the run this season. While the tailback's average of 6.4 yards per carry was impressive, Ekeler coughed up the ball in scoring territory during the fourth quarter. With minimal contribution in the passing game, it was a missed opportunity for Ekeler, who is now set to square off against a tough Ravens defense in Week 12.

McIntosh (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest versus the Rams.

McIntosh was moved off IR last weekend following a knee injury, though he didn't play Week 10 against Washington. The rookie appears to be past the knee issue since he came into this weekend without an injury designation, but he still won't make his NFL debut versus Los Angeles. McIntosh's next opportunity to play will come Thanksgiving Day against San Francisco.

Foreman suffered a right ankle injury during Sunday's game at Detroit and is questionable to return. He carried six times for 14 yards and a touchdown prior to his departure.

Not long after halftime, Foreman walked off the field slowly and promptly visited the blue medical tent, according to Bridget Condon of NFL Network. After the Bears deemed him questionable to return, Foreman was seen jogging on the sideline, seemingly testing out his injury, per Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com. With Foreman sidelined, Khalil Herbert likely will be Chicago's lead runner, but Roschon Johnson and Travis Homer also are available.
