Mitchell (hamstring) is expected to play in Sunday's matchup against the Browns, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

That the 21-year-old practiced fully Friday was likely a positive indication anyway, but this is a great development regardless for the rookie's availability. It's worth noting the Ravens haven't made an official designation regarding his status, but that should be officially cleared up before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. The speedy running back has been electric in his first real opportunities after missing the beginning of the season due to a shoulder injury, but he played only 13 offensive snaps total in the demolition of the Seahawks in Week 9. It's unclear if the playing time will dramatically rise in what figures to be a much more competitive contest.

McIntosh (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

McIntosh has yet to make his NFL debut, as he suffered a knee injury in August and has spent the majority of the year on injured reserve. Head coach Pete Carroll told reporters Friday that the rookie running back is physically ready to play, but he's not sure if he wants to make the move to activate him to the team's active roster just yet, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com.

With Dameon Pierce (ankle) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Singletary is again expected to lead Houston's backfield.

Pierce will miss his second straight game. Against the Bucs in Week 9, Singletary played 75 percent of the offensive snaps but struggled to get anything going on the ground, finishing with 26 yards on 13 carries. He added two catches for zero yards. Mike Boone will fill in as Singletary's change of pace.

Dallas (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Dallas hasn't played an offensive snap since Week 7 and has touched the ball just nine times for 25 scoreless yards on the season. He was a limited participant in practice in the Seahawks' first two Week 10 sessions, but according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com, head coach Pete Carroll suggested Dallas looks on track to play. If active Sunday, Dallas would fill a depth role behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet and would likely get most of his opportunities on special teams.

Pierce (ankle) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Pierce was unable to practice in any fashion this week and will sit out a second straight game while he recovers from an ankle injury. Devin Singletary -- who played 74 percent of the Texans' snaps on offense but mustered just 26 yards on 13 carries and zero yards on two receptions in last week's 39-37 win over the Buccaneers -- is likely to get another turn as Houston's lead back in Pierce's stead.

Mitchell (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Though he'll take a designation into the weekend, Mitchell's ability to practice fully Friday after he was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant offers hope that his hamstring issue isn't anything too significant. Regardless, Mitchell's status won't be clarified until the Ravens release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Even if Mitchell is active, the Ravens could be inclined to err on the side of caution with their usage of the undrafted rookie out of East Carolina, who broke out for 138 yards and a touchdown on nine carries in the Week 9 trouncing of the Seahawks. Head coach John Harbaugh had suggested earlier in the week that Mitchell might have earned himself a regular spot in the backfield rotation with Gus Edwards and Justice Hill on the heels of the big performance, though Mitchell's hamstring injury could put those plans on hold.

Miller (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Miller didn't practice at all this week after spraining his ankle in the Week 9 win over the Bears. The rookie's absence could open up more carries for Jamaal Williams and more targets for Alvin Kamara, though Miller has played single-digit snaps in each of the last three games.

Demercado (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Demercado hasn't practiced the past two weeks and now will miss a second straight game, while James Conner (knee) has a questionable designation after missing the minimum of four weeks on injured reserve. If Conner doesn't end up playing, the Cardinals likely will turn to Keaontay Ingram and practice-squad player Corey Clement, having waived RB Tony Jones on Thursday despite giving him 40 percent of snaps on offense just four days prior in a 27-0 loss to Cleveland. Even if Conner doesn't play this weekend, he stands a good chance to be ready before Demercado, which means the rookie figures to be in a backup role whenever he makes it back from the toe injury.

Connor (knee) remained limited at practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

The failure to progress to full participation perhaps leaves some doubt, while the Cardinals' decision to waive RB Tony Jones on Thursday hints at Conner making his return after missing the minimum of four games. He'll likely get a large workload if the Cards end up activating him from injured reserve before the 4 ET deadline Saturday, as rookie RB Emari Demercado (toe) has been ruled out for a second straight week. Keaontay Ingram is the only healthy running back on Arizona's roster as of Friday afternoon, with Corey Clement being the lone option from the practice squad.

Corbin (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game at Dallas, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Corbin is in danger of sitting out a second consecutive week due to a hamstring injury. If he's sidelined, the Giants will have to try to find a way to replace his production on special teams.
