Gordon recorded 21 rush attempts for 80 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Cowboys. He added two receptions for 15 yards.

Gordon led the team with 21 carries, nearly double his previous high on the season. Game script worked to his benefit -- the Broncos were up 19-0 midway through the third quarter -- though he didn't necessarily take full advantage by averaging only 3.8 yards per carry and logging a long of 14 yards for the day. Even so, he tallied his fourth touchdown of the season late in the first quarter by plunging into the end zone from three yards away. Despite the inefficiency, this was a positive performance for Gordon overall, and he could benefit from game script again in a Week 10 matchup against the Eagles.

Gaskin rushed 20 times for 34 yards and a touchdown and secured all six targets for 23 yards in the Dolphins' 17-9 win over the Texans on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Sometimes a productive fantasy performance is achieved through sheer volume, and such was the case for Gaskin on Sunday. The third-year back surprisingly had trouble finding running room against what had been an increasingly porous Texans run defense, but he helped lock in a productive afternoon with a six-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and his second-highest catch total of the season. Gaskin next faces a tough Ravens run defense in a Thursday night home matchup.

Jacobs recorded 13 rushes for 76 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Giants. He added four receptions for 19 yards.

Jacobs continued to dominate work out of the Raiders backfield, accounting for 13 of the team's 17 rushing attempts recorded by running backs. He also managed his highest rushing yardage total of the season by logging five rushes that went for 10 or more yards. While Kenyan Drake dominated receiving work at the position, Jacobs has also now recorded multiple receptions in four of his last five games. Jacobs will draw a favorable matchup against the Chiefs in Week 10, though game script could dictate more work for Drake.

Patterson rushed nine times for 10 yards and caught all six of his targets for 126 yards in Sunday's 27-25 win over the Saints.

Patterson couldn't find any running room against the stout Saints front, but the versatile offensive contributor continued his excellent season by posting a game-high total in receiving yards. He topped 100 receiving yards for just the second time in his career, with the first such performance coming back in Week 14 of the 2013 season, when Patterson was a rookie. More than half of that yardage came on a 64-yard catch-and-run up the sideline, which set up Atlanta's game-winning field goal. Patterson has topped 60 scrimmage yards in every game this season heading into a Week 10 road matchup with Dallas.

Cook rushed 17 times for 110 yards and brought in all three targets for 12 yards in the Vikings' 34-31 overtime loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Cook wasn't as efficient on the ground as his 6.5 yards per carry figure would imply, as the bulk of his production came on a 66-yard scamper. He also had an apparent one-yard touchdown run reversed on replay early in the second quarter, but his third 100-yard effort of the season and second in the last three games helped ensure it was a solid fantasy day overall. Cook next faces a highly vulnerable Chargers run defense in a Week 10 road matchup.

Singletary ran for 16 yards on six carries while catching seven passes for 43 yards on eight targets against Jacksonville on Sunday.

The Bills offense just couldn't get it going despite the favorable on-paper matchup against Jacksonville, but Singletary was one of the offense's few sources of occasional production. He had to take on a larger workload than usual after Zack Moss left with a concussion, so Moss's availability will be a crucial situation to monitor for Singletary's fantasy managers as they consider whether to start him against the Jets in Week 10. If Moss is out then it could prove a very favorable matchup for Singletary.

Elliott recorded 10 rushes for 51 yards and a two-point conversion in Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Broncos. He added three receptions for 25 yards.

Elliott dealt with a contusion to his right knee during the game. The Cowboys also sported a significant deficit throughout the afternoon, which limited him to only four rushes and one reception in the second half. Even so, Elliott did manage to rip off gains of 21, 11 and 10 yards to make good use of his limited opportunity. Assuming he's fully healthy, Elliott should return to a significant workload in Week 10 against Atlanta, though his practice participation leading up to the game will be worth monitoring.

Kamara rushed 13 times for 50 yards and one touchdown while catching four of seven targets for 54 yards during Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Falcons.

Fantasy managers can largely thank the Saints' late comeback bid for Kamara's productive day. Not only was he kept out of the end zone until late in the fourth quarter, but he and Mark Ingram shared the backfield workload almost evenly up until that point. In the end, Kamara's 20 combined targets and carries ended up being just six more than Ingram's, as it's clear that New Orleans is trying to lighten the load for the 5-foot-10 running back, who averaged nearly 25 combined targets and carries per contest before the Saints traded for Ingram ahead of Week 8. While Kamara will still remain among the busiest running backs in the league even if he continues to cede some work to Ingram, fantasy managers probably shouldn't expect him to return to the gaudy usage he had during the first half of the year.

Coach Urban Meyer said Robinson (heel) is expected to play Week 10 in Indianapolis after sitting out Sunday's win over the Bills, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

Robinson was inactive after being labeled questionable for Sunday's contest, though he was apparently expected to play up until the morning of the game. Carlos Hyde rushed 21 times for 67 yards and caught one pass for six yards versus Buffalo, but he would revert to a secondary role should Robinson be able to play next weekend.

Bolden rushed eight times for 54 yards and caught both of his targets for 27 more yards in Sunday's 24-6 win over the Panthers.

Both Damien Harris (16 touches) and Rhamondre Stevenson (12 touches) left Sunday's contest with head injuries, leaving Bolden to take over lead-back duties for the remainder of the contest. The short outburst of yardage put the 31-year-old over the 4.0 yards per carry mark for the season, most of which has been in a reserve/special-teams role. If the aforementioned backs are unable to heal up before next Sunday, Bolden figures to serve as the team's top backfield option against the Browns, with J.J. Taylor (inactive) also getting in the mix.
