Moss rushed 11 times for 66 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for eight yards in the Colts' 38-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Moss logged only one fewer carry than Jonathan Taylor, and both backs surprisingly found plenty of running room against the Saints' typically stout defense. Moss also scored his fourth touchdown in the last three games on a one-yard rush in the second quarter, making it a highly efficient afternoon. Moss figures to continue operating in a nearly even timeshare with Taylor on the road in a favorable matchup against the Panthers in Week 9.

Hall rushed 12 times for 17 yards and caught six of nine targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 13-10 overtime win over the Giants.

After a slow start for both offenses, Hall used his rare blend of elusiveness and speed to turn a simple check-down grab into a 50-yard touchdown catch to put the Jets up 7-3. That looked like all the offense the Jets would muster as Hall was stymied on the ground and Zach Wilson couldn't get anything going in the passing game, but a late burst from the passing attack helped the Jets force overtime and eventually win. It's encouraging that the team is finding ways to get Hall the ball in the passing game when the run isn't working, but the offensive line's inability to consistently open up holes remains a concern as Hall gets ready to face the Chargers in Week 9.

Taylor rushed 12 times for 95 yards and brought in one of two targets for two yards in the Colts' 38-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Taylor put together an impressive performance on the ground for the second straight week, but he notably logged just one more carry than backfield mate Zack Moss, who also recorded the Colts' only rushing touchdown. Taylor also only had one carry in the second half. Taylor appears to be explosive following his offseason ankle surgery, but with Moss also remaining effective and a similarly proficient pass catcher, it appears the duo will continue to operate in a fairly even timeshare for the foreseeable future. Taylor draws a favorable matchup in Week 9 on the road against the vulnerable Panthers run defense.

Barkley rushed 36 times for 128 yards and caught three of five targets for zero yards in Sunday's 13-10 overtime loss to the Jets.

Barkley was already the focal point of the offense, but the Giants leaned even more heavily on the running back after undrafted rookie Tommy DeVito took over under center in the second quarter following Tyrod Taylor's (ribs) exit. A 34-yard Barkley run, coupled with a pair of unnecessary roughness calls on the Jets defense, set up DeVito's six-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, which gave the Giants a 10-7 lead. Barkley would have a high touch floor if DeVito remains under center in Week 9 against the Raiders, but New York's entire offense would have a far higher ceiling if either Daniel Jones (neck) or Taylor is cleared to return by then.

Kamara rushed 17 times for 59 yards and one touchdown to go along with four receptions (on five targets) for 51 yards and another score during Sunday's 38-27 victory versus Indianapolis.

Kamara scored multiple touchdowns for the first time in 2023 during this season-best performance for the Saints' offense. While the 28-year-old didn't play nearly as big of a role in the passing game, he still logged a touchdown both on the ground and through the air for the eighth time in his seven-year career. Meanwhile, backup running backs Jamaal Williams and Kendre Miller combined for 40 yards on nine carries. Kamara also totaled over 100 yards for the third game in a row, and his heavy workload in this offense has continued to make him a consistent RB1 for fantasy. He should expect to see 20-plus touches versus Chicago on Sunday, Nov. 5.

Warren rushed five times for 19 yards while securing four of five targets for 19 yards during the Steelers' 20-10 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday.

Warren led the Steelers in rushing yards Sunday, but he still struggled to provide much of a spark as the team's offense continued to falter. The 24-year-old has provided some fantasy value while sharing backfield work with Najee Harris, but Warren hasn't displayed much upside, especially on the ground. The second-year pro has rushed 45 times for 175 yards and a touchdown while securing 26 of 32 targets for 184 yards over the first seven games of the season.

Etienne rushed 24 times for 79 yards and ran in a two-point conversion while catching three of six targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Steelers.

After rushing for two touchdowns in each of Jacksonville's previous three games, Etienne scored the first receiving touchdown of his career on a 56-yard catch in the third quarter and immediately followed that up by running in a two-point conversion. Shortly prior to that productive sequence, Etienne had left the game to be evaluated for an ankle injury. The 24-year-old running back set a new career high in receiving yards and would have topped 80 rushing yards for the third time this season had he not combined for minus-4 yards on three carries on Jacksonville's final possession. His productivity after returning suggests Etienne's ankle scare is unlikely to impact his availability moving forward, especially with a Week 9 bye providing extra rest before a Week 10 home game against the 49ers.

Harris rushed seven times for 13 yards while securing all five of his targets for 42 yards during the Steelers' 20-10 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday.

Harris averaged just 1.9 yards per carry Sunday, the third-lowest mark of his career. However, he managed to prop up his fantasy production through his success as a receiver. Fellow running back Jaylen Warren was also inefficient on the ground with five rushes for 19 yards, but Harris' performance didn't do much to strengthen his case for a larger role in the backfield. Harris has rushed 84 times for 313 yards and a touchdown while securing 13 of 16 targets for 94 yards over the first seven games of the season.

Davis-Price (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Bengals, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

It's the third game in a row of Davis-Price being a healthy scratch. His lone appearance of the year came in Week 5 against the Cowboys when he rushed six times for 21 yards.

Etienne returned to Sunday's game against the Steelers after leaving for a brief spell in the third quarter to be evaluated for an ankle injury, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

After limping off the field on the Jaguars' first possession of the third quarter, Etienne headed into the medical tent on the sideline to get his ankle checked out. Tank Bigsby came off the bench and fumbled on his third carry of the drive, but Etienne received the green light to return to the field on the Jaguars' ensuing possession. Etienne looks like he'll be able to finish the game as Jacksonville's top back, and the team's upcoming Week 9 bye should afford him some extra time for his ankle to heal up.
