Snell totaled two carries for six yards in Monday's 29-27 win over the Bears.

Snell was on the field for just two offensive snaps in Monday's victory, but he recorded double-digit touches for the first time since Week 5. The 23-year-old has tallied just 10 carries for 27 yards while hauling in one of three targets for seven yards across the first 10 games of the year.

Ahmed had four carries for six yards during the Dolphins' 17-9 win over the Texans on Sunday.

Ahmed, as usual, was relegated to a clear backup role. Meanwhile, Myles Gaskin had 20 carries and six targets during Sunday's win, though he only racked up 34 rushing yards. Ahmed hasn't logged a single game with double-digit touches this season.

Herbert rushed four times for 13 yards in Monday night's 29-27 loss to the Steelers.

Herbert saw veteran David Montgomery return from a four-game absence to lead Chicago's backfield with 15 touches for 80 yards. Although the rookie got three carries during the first half, he was hardly involved during the second, taking a back seat to Montgomery as the Bears staged a comeback attempt. Given Herbert's production while Montgomery was previously sidelined, it's possible he's incorporated more in the offense following the team's Week 10 bye, but Herbert's stock has clearly taken a hit now that he's a second-stringer again.

Montgomery rushed 13 times for 63 yards and caught both of his targets for 17 yards in Monday night's 29-27 loss to the Steelers.

Montgomery returned from a four-game absence to lead Chicago's backfield with some tough running. The tailback ripped off a game-long rush of 21 yards and also sprinkled in a couple receptions, totaling a respectable 15 touches for 80 yards on the night. Meanwhile, with Montgomery returning, rookie Khalil Herbert managed just four rushes for 13 yards, including just one second-half carry. With the Bears now entering their bye week, Montgomery should be fresh when he next takes the field in Week 11 versus the Ravens.

Harris rushed 22 times for 62 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 29-27 win over the Bears. He also caught all three of his targets for 16 yards.

Harris opened the scoring with a 10-yard touchdown run during the first quarter, helping his output on a night when he found little room to run. The rookie nonetheless got his usual heavy workload, accumulating at least 25 touches for the fourth straight game. Although his efficiency isn't always there, Harris' consistent usage and penchant for finding the end zone should continue to make him a strong option, and he's gifted with a favorable matchup in Week 10 versus the Lions.

Ogunbowale had one carry for one yard and caught his lone target for four yards during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Bills.

Starter James Robinson (ankle) was inactive for Sunday's contest, but Ogunbowale played only eight offensive snaps, while Carlos Hyde dominated Jacksonville's backfield reps. There would need to be a significant shakeup in the Jaguars backfield in order for Ogunbowale to enter fantasy relevance.

McFarland has been ruled inactive for Monday's matchup with the Bears due to a coach's decision.

McFarland made his season debut last week and saw just one carry for one yard. With Najee Harris, Kalen Ballage and Benny Snell all healthy, he will be the odd man out this week in the backfield.

Murray (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.

Murray was inactive for Sunday's overtime win over the Vikings, so it's not surprising to see him listed as a DNP on Monday's estimate. Given the short turnaround this week, there's a decent chance that he won't make it back for Thursday night's game against the Dolphins. If so, Devonta Freeman (57 snaps versus Minnesota) and Le'Veon Bell (23 snaps) would be in line to head the Ravens' Week 10 backfield, with Ty'Son Williams in reserve.

Giants head coach Joe Judge said Barkley (ankle) will take part in drills on the practice field Tuesday and Wednesday this week as the team looks to gauge where he stands in his recovery, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Because New York is on bye Week 10, the team won't be holding any official practice sessions, but Barkley looks like he'll stick around the facility this week and get in some work with the hope of returning to the lineup for the Giants' next game Monday, Nov. 22 at Tampa Bay. Though he's missed four consecutive games with the left ankle sprain and had his rehab program interrupted last week by a brief stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list, the bye week should provide sufficient time for him to shake off the injury once and for all. Devontae Booker (hip) will move back into a reserve role once Barkley officially gets the green light to play again.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott confirmed that Moss was placed in the concussion protocol following his early exit in Sunday's 9-6 loss to the Jaguars, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Before leaving, Moss carried three times for six yards and reeled in two of his four targets for 18 yards. Moss now will have to clear the five-step protocol to make himself available for the Bills' Week 10 game against the Jets, but if the second-year player doesn't get the green light to play, Devin Singletary could be in store for a three-down role out of the Buffalo backfield.
