Murray gained four yards on two carries and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 24-18 loss to the Bengals.

Murray saw limited opportunities while playing 45 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps. The veteran running back's four yards on the ground were a season low, while starter James Cook struggled to get going as well, rushing just six times for 20 yards. Murray is seeing limited usage even with Damien Harris (concussion/neck) on injured reserve. To muddy the waters even more in the backfield, the Bills signed Leonard Fournette to their practice squad on Oct. 30, and he could compete with Murray for the No. 2 role. Nonetheless, the 33-year-old will look to hold down his spot behind Cook and earn a bigger workload when the Bills host the Broncos in Week 10.

The Rams waived Gaskin Tuesday.

Signed off the Vikings' practice squad last month, Gaskin appeared in one game for the Rams, seeing just six special teams snaps. Kyren Williams (ankle) is eligible to return from injured reserve in Week 12, and the Rams are now on their bye. Darrell Henderson and Royce Freeman have handled backfield duties in Williams' absence.

The Giants signed Hall to their practice squad Tuesday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

With both Eric Gray (calf) and Gary Brightwell (hamstring) on injured reserve and Jashaun Corbin also nursing a hamstring issue, Hall gives the Giants organizational backfield depth. Hall has yet to register a regular-season carry in the NFL.

Bawden caught his only target for seven yards in Monday's 27-6 loss to the Chargers.

Bawden has one catch and one carry in eight appearances this season. The 27-year-old fullback plays almost exclusively in a blocking role.

Penny rushed twice for eight yards in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Cowboys.

The absence of Boston Scott (personal) allowed Penny to suit up for just the second time all season, but his role as the Eagles' third back was a very small one. He saw the field for just two offensive snaps, though he can at least take solace in the fact that the team called his number whenever he was in the game. Penny's role can't get much smaller when the Eagles return from their Week 10 bye, but it doesn't appear to be on the verge of getting much larger, either.

Williams had three carries for 13 yards in Sunday night's win over the Bills while playing 13 offensive snaps.

With the game result in question up until the very end, there were very few opportunities for Williams to make an impact offensively. He did however contribute 61 yards in kick returns.

Carter didn't record a carry but caught all six of his targets for 24 yards in Monday's 27-6 loss to the Chargers.

Five of Carter's six catches came on the Jets' last drive with the result no longer in doubt, as Zach Wilson consistently checked the ball down to the running back underneath with Los Angeles' defense sagging back. Breece Hall continues to handle the lion's share of touches in New York's backfield, with Carter and Dalvin Cook splitting the remaining scraps.

Cook rushed twice for seven yards and caught one of two targets for one yard in Monday's 27-6 loss to the Chargers.

Cook has nine touches over the Jets' last three games, while Breece Hall has averaged 18.3 touches per game over that span. After mustering 59 yards from scrimmage in his Jets debut, Cook hasn't reached 30 yards in a game since, and that's unlikely to change barring an injury to Hall.

Herbert (ankle) remained a full participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.

Herbert has yet to be activated from injured reserve but is eligible to return for Thursday night's game against the Panthers. He appears to be trending toward suiting up, but his role and workload in the Chicago backfield upon his return are uncertain with D'Onta Foreman having made a sizable impact in his absence.

Ahmed carried the ball three times for four yards during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Chiefs. He also secured two of three targets for eight yards.

Ahmed saw a similar workload to Jeff Wilson during Sunday's loss in Frankfurt, while both worked behind starter Raheem Mostert. Only Mostert was able to get anything going versus Kansas City's formidable defense, however, and with De'Von Achane (knee) potentially coming off IR for Week 11, after Miami's bye, Ahmed's opportunities could quickly diminish.
