White rushed twice for two yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Patriots. He also caught both of his targets for seven yards.

White's two receptions marked a career high, but he was still buried in the offensive game plan behind workhorse Josh Jacobs, who handled 27 touches for 93 total yards Sunday. Through the Raiders' first six games of the season, White has rushed just 10 times for 41 yards.

Ahmed carried the ball six times for 23 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 42-21 win over Carolina.

Ahmed worked behind Raheem Mostert (115 rushing yards and three total TDs) during Sunday's blowout win over the Panthers, though Chris Brooks (ankle) also handled six carries before being forced out during the fourth quarter. It looks probably Jeff Wilson (ribs) will healthy enough to make his season debut Week 8 against Philadelphia, though, and if operating at 100 percent, he would stand to work ahead of Ahmed as a complement to Mostert.

Rivers is believed to have a PCL sprain that could sideline him for multiple weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Rivers will undergo an MRI to confirm the diagnosis, but the initial prognosis does not bode well for his chances at suiting up in Week 7 versus Pittsburgh. With Kyren Williams (ankle) dealing with an injury of his own, the Rams could be severely short-handed in their backfield for that contest.

Harris (neck) was released from the hospital Monday and otherwise should be OK after he was taken off the field via ambulance in Sunday's 14-9 win over the Giants, Alaina Getzenberg and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com report.

Harris was placed on a stretcher and taken to a Buffalo-area hospital after he sustained the neck injury on a short-yardage rushing attempt in the second quarter. Though he was on the ground for several moments before being removed from the field, Harris has full movement in his body and is believed to be dealing with nothing more than neck pain. Even so, it's unclear when Harris might be available to play again, meaning if he ends up sitting out the Bills' Week 7 game at New England on Sunday, Latavius Murray would be locked in as the clear No. 2 option behind starter James Cook.

Patterson caught his only target for six yards and rushed once for zero yards during Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Commanders.

Patterson made his season debut in Week 4 but played just one offensive snap. His workload increased to five offensive snaps in Week 5, when he secured his lone target for seven yards while also returning a kickoff for 35 yards. The veteran's snap count rose again in Week 6, but his production remained limited. As long as Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier are healthy, Patterson will likely be relegated to a gadget role and won't have much fantasy value.

McFarland (knee) returned to practice Monday.

McFarland went to Pittsburgh's injured reserve list with a knee injury after a Week 1 loss versus San Francisco, but it now seems he could return as early as Week 7 at the Rams. The Steelers now have a 21-day window to activate him, or he'll be relegated to IR for the remainder of the year.

Williams (ankle) will undergo an MRI on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The MRI should provide more details about the ankle injury Williams sustained late in the Rams' 26-9 victory over the Cardinals on Sunday, when he handled 20 carries for a career-high 158 yards and a touchdown. The second-year pro left Sunday's game without a boot on his injured ankle, but until his MRI results are in, it'll be difficult to project how much time, if any, Williams might have to miss. Meanwhile, backup Ronnie Rivers (knee) is believed to be dealing with a PCL sprain and also will receive an MRI.

Breida rushed four times for 13 yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's loss to Buffalo.

Breida played over half of New York's offensive snaps in each of the previous three games with Saquon Barkley out due to an ankle injury, but his role unsurprisingly shrank with Barkley back in action in Week 6. Breida saw the field for just 18 of the Giants' 77 offensive snaps and didn't make much of an impact with a long gain of six yards. This volume figures to be the norm for the veteran back whenever Barkley is able to suit up, and Breida wasn't very productive even when filling in during Barkley's absence, so there's little appeal to rostering him in fantasy except as an unexciting stash.

Coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Harris (neck) has full movement in his body and is "heading in a good direction," Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Harris had to undergo medical evaluation at a local hospital after being forced out of Monday's game against the Giants. It's encouraging to hear that he's indeed demonstrated full movement of his extremities, but it's still too early to speculate on a potential recovery timeline for the veteran running back. James Cook and Latavius Murray are currently the only healthy RBs on Buffalo's active roster.

Carter rushed once for five yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 20-14 win over the Eagles.

Carter once again finished third among New York's running backs in touches behind Breece Hall (17) and Dalvin Cook (four). Expect Carter to remain in a depth role after the Jets' Week 7 bye.
