Corey Clement RB | ARI
Corey Clement: Joins Cardinals' practice squad
Clement signed with Arizona's practice squad Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Clement spent some time with Baltimore during training camp but was unable to make his 2022 season debut. The veteran running back spent four season with Philadelphia and spent his 2021 campaign with Dallas. Clement rushed 33 times for 140 yards through 17 games with Dallas last season, while also playing 297 of his 368 snaps with special teams. He'll now look to compete for a depth role in Arizona.

Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR
Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: No touches again
Hubbard did not get any touches in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the 49ers.
Hubbard played 11 offensive snaps but didn't get the ball for the second straight game, proving his minimal value behind Christian McCaffrey.

Kenjon Barner RB | TB
Kenjon Barner: Released from IR
Tampa Bay released Barner (undisclosed) from IR on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Barner suffered a severe undisclosed injury during the preseason opener, which appears to have ended his 2022 campaign. The veteran running back spent the past two seasons with Tampa Bay, during which he had a mere four rushes for zero yards and returned six punts for 47 yards.

Rhamondre Stevenson RB | NE
Patriots' Rhamondre Stevenson: Expected to see expanded role
Stevenson appears poised see an expanded role in the coming weeks with Damien Harris in line to miss time with a hamstring injury, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Through the first four weeks of the season, Harris and Stevenson worked in a timeshare, but with the former limited to just six snaps in Week 5, Stevenson parlayed 54 snaps into 25 carries for a career-high 161 yards, to go along with two catches for 14 yards. Looking ahead to this weekend's game against the Browns, Stevenson figures to handle the bulk of New England's early-down work as well as contribute as a pass catcher, with some combo of Pierre Strong and practice-squad members J.J. Taylor and Kevin Harris in line to handle complementary snaps. It's also possible the team adds further backfield depth in the coming days.

Ty Chandler RB | NO
Vikings' Ty Chandler: Headed to IR with broken thumb
Minnesota placed Chandler (thumb) on its injured reserve list Tuesday.
Chandler sustained a thumb fracture during Sunday's 29-22 win versus Chicago, and he'll now have to sit out at least the Vikings' next four games as he recovers. The rookie fifth-rounder hasn't logged an offensive snap in 2022, but Minnesota will still have to find a way to replace the speedster's special teams reps.

Marlon Mack RB | ARI
Marlon Mack: Time with 49ers ends
Mack was released by San Francisco on Tuesday.
Mack signed to the 49ers' practice squad Sept. 13, and he ultimately made it to the active roster in Week 3 and 4, but he only contributed five snaps on special teams. He was a healthy inactive Week 5, as the team opted to elevate Tevin Coleman from the practice squad to operate as the team's No. 3 running back instead. Mack has had trouble finding a steady role since suffering an Achilles tear in Week 1 of the 2020 season.

Jake Funk RB | JAC
Jake Funk: Cut loose by Rams
The Rams waived Funk on Tuesday.
With Kyren Williams inching closer to returning from a sprained ankle he suffered in the season-opener against Buffalo, the Rams ultimately let their 2021 seventh-round pick go. Los Angeles also acquired veteran running back Malcolm Brown in late September to add depth behind Cam Akers and Darrell Henderson, leaving Funk with few opportunities to earn snaps in the team's backfield. The 205-pounder has just two carries for five yards since joining the Rams in 2021, and he'll now search for a chance to rejuvenate his young NFL career.

Isiah Pacheco RB | DET
Chiefs' Isiah Pacheco: Silent Monday night
Pacheco handled one carry for no gain and was not targeted during Monday's game versus the Raiders.
Pacheco had seemingly broke through a barrier last week to the tune of 11 carries for 63 yards against the Buccaneers, but he followed that with a goose egg in production Monday on just two offensive snaps. The rookie doesn't play consistently enough to warrant lineup consideration at this point and is primarily viewed as a bench stash or dynasty league piece in a fluid Chiefs backfield.
-
Samaje Perine RB | CIN
Bengals' Samaje Perine: Busy when on field
Perine had three carries for 17 yards and another four catches for 39 yards in Sunday night's loss to the Ravens.
Perine played only 17 offensive snaps, so he was fairly active for those snaps. The Bengals did a better job of getting Joe Mixon going last week, so this sort of playing time ratio is likely to continue for Perine.

Damien Harris RB | BUF
Patriots' Damien Harris: Likely to miss time
Harris (hamstring) is expected to miss multiple games, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Harris still needs further tests to determine the severity of his hamstring injury, but it sounds like the Patriots anticipate a multi-week absence. That could result in Harris being placed on IR and missing a minimum of four contests. Rhamondre Stevenson will step up as New England's top backfield option in the meantime, and that uptick in workload would make him an enticing fantasy play until Harris returns. Kevin Harris or J.J. Taylor could be elevated from the practice squad to provide depth.
