D'Andre Swift RB | CHI
Bears' D'Andre Swift: Reclaims lead role in return
Swift (groin/personal) rushed 13 times for 80 yards and caught five of eight targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Giants.
Swift returned from a one-game absence due to a groin injury and out-touched Kyle Monangai 18-7, retaining the lead role in Chicago's backfield. Monangai scored an eight-yard rushing touchdown in the first quarter, but Swift produced a few highlights of his own on the ground, including a 25-yard scamper and a nine-yard run on fourth-and-2 on the same second-quarter drive. Swift also finished second on the team in targets, so he's well-positioned to maintain a heavy workload regardless of game flow in Week 11 against the Vikings.

Jarquez Hunter RB | LAR
Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Healthy scratch Week 10
Hunter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
Week 10 will be third game in a row that Hunter is a healthy scratch, with Ronnie Rivers serving as the Rams' RB3 behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. Hunter's next opportunity to play is Week 11 against the Seahawks on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Craig Reynolds RB | NE
Lions' Craig Reynolds: Returning for Week 10
Reynolds (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
Reynolds is returning to his No. 3 running back role after a one-game absence due to the injury. He has just three carries for four yards and no touchdowns in six games this year.

Terrell Jennings RB | NE
Patriots' Terrell Jennings: Won't return Sunday
Jennings (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Jennings thus finishes the contest with four carries for five yards. The Patriots play again Thursday night against the Jets, so Jennings' status for that game currently looks cloudy given the short turnaround. Given that Rhamondre Stevenson is still dealing with a toe injury, D'Ernest Johnson could end up backing up TreVeyon Henderson in Week 11.

Terrell Jennings RB | NE
Patriots' Terrell Jennings: Hurts knee Sunday
Jennings was forced out of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with a knee injury, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Prior to his exit from the contest, Jennings carried four times for five yards. In his absence, fellow RB D'Ernest Johnson is available to work behind TreVeyon Henderson.

Jonathan Taylor RB | IND
Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Bounces back via MVP-caliber effort
Taylor rushed 32 times for 244 yards and three touchdowns while bringing in all three targets for 42 yards in the Colts' 31-25 overtime win against the Falcons on Sunday in Berlin.
The highlights of yet another memorable day for Taylor were his final two touchdowns, which consisted of an 83-yard run with just over six minutes remaining in regulation and the game-winning eight-yard scamper up the middle in overtime. Taylor's yardage total fell just short of the career-high 253 he gained against the Jaguars as a rookie back in January 2021, and it served as his third tally of more than 150 yards already this season. Taylor also now has four three-touchdown performances in his MVP-caliber 2025 campaign, and he'll have a Week 11 bye to take a breath before returning to action in a Week 12 road showdown against the Chiefs on Sunday, Nov. 23.

Tyler Allgeier RB | ATL
Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Finds end zone twice in OT loss
Allgeier carried the ball 11 times for 57 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts.
The backup RB scored one-yard TDs in the first and fourth quarters as he continues to take red-zone work away from Bijan Robinson. Robinson led the Falcons with 84 rushing yards on the day but didn't get into the end zone, and he has only two rushing touchdowns in nine games compared to Allgeier's six. It was also Allgeier's first multi-TD performance since Week 1 of the 2023 season. as long as he continues to see heavy usage in the red zone and at the goal line, Allgeier will have some fantasy utility even though Sunday was only the third time this season he's topped 50 rushing yards in a game.

Bijan Robinson RB | ATL
Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Cedes red-zone work to Allgeier
Robinson carried the ball 17 times for 84 yards and caught both his targets for four yards in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts.
While the third-year back posted his best rushing yardage total since Week 6, he was denied a much bigger performance, as Tyler Allgeier punched in a pair of one-yard TDs in his place. Robinson hasn't scored a rushing touchdown in four straight games, his longest drought since his rookie season, as a result of the increased red-zone usage for his backup, and he has just two rushing scores on the year compared to Allgeier's six. Robinson will try to hit paydirt in Week 11 against the Panthers, a team he's scored five total touchdowns against (four on the ground, one through the air) in five career meetings.

Corey Kiner RB | ARI
Vikings' Corey Kiner: Inactive against Baltimore
Kiner (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Kiner was elevated to the active roster Saturday for the scenario in which starting running back Aaron Jones (shoulder/toe) was unable to suit up. With Jones active for Sunday's contest, Kiner ends up a healthy scratch against the Ravens.

Jaylen Wright RB | MIA
Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Suiting up for Week 10
Wright is active for Sunday's game against the Bills, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Wright has been a healthy scratch for most of the season, but he'll suit up Sunday -- marking his third time garnering active status on the campaign. The move likely comes as insurance for Ollie Gordon, who is active Sunday but has been limited in practice throughout the week by an ankle injury. Wright isn't likely to see much opportunity so long as both De'Von Achane and Gordon remain healthy.
