  • Ravens' Latavius Murray: Suffers ankle injury

    Murray was forced out of Sunday's game against the Chargers with an ankle injury, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Prior to his exit from the contest, Murray had logged nine carries for 44 yards and a touchdown to go with two catches for 12 yards. With Murray banged up, Devonta Freeman and Le'Veon Bell are in line to handle the Ravens' backfield duties for the rest of the day.

  • Eno Benjamin RB | NO

    Cardinals' Eno Benjamin: Inactive once again

    Benjamin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Browns, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Benjamin was active for the first time in his career in Week 5. However, he did not log an offensive snap and will be inactive once again with Chase Edmonds (shoulder) ready to go.

  • J.J. Taylor RB | HOU

    Patriots' J.J. Taylor: Inactive Sunday

    Taylor (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    With Taylor unavailable, Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson and Brandon Bolden will handle the Patriots' Week 6 backfield duties.

  • Damien Harris RB | BUF

    Patriots' Damien Harris: Active versus Cowboys

    Harris (ribs) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Harris was forced out of last weekend's win over the Texans, but he was able to practice in a limited fashion Thursday and Friday and will give it a go Sunday. If the Patriots' top back ends up limited at all or suffers any setbacks against Dallas, added backfield touches would be available for Rhamondre Stevenson and Brandon Bolden.

  • Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott: Officially active Sunday

    Elliott (ribs) is listed as active Sunday in New England.

    The Cowboys capped Elliott's practice reps this week as he dealt with the aftereffects of landing on a camera pylon on the sideline last Sunday against the Giants. The rib issue won't impact his ability to suit up Week 6, but it stands to reason he could yield some work to backup running back Tony Pollard. Still, Elliott has been Dallas' lead runner all season on his way to 18.8 touches for 101.4 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring six TDs in five contests.

  • Melvin Gordon RB | BAL

    Broncos' Melvin Gordon: Active as expected Sunday

    Gordon (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

    As expected, Gordon once again will tough out an injury and play after going into the weekend listed as questionable. The veteran also has dealt with rib and lower-leg injuries over the last pair of contests, but he's still logged a combined 65 snaps in those games while splitting time with rookie Javonte Williams, an arrangement that will persist versus Las Vegas.

  • Chase Edmonds RB | WAS

    Cardinals' Chase Edmonds: Suiting up Sunday

    Edmonds (shoulder) is listed as active Sunday at Cleveland, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Despite having practice limitations for a second week in a row, Edmonds will be available to the Cardinals offense Week 6. He continues to get the better end of offensive snaps over fellow running back James Conner, earning at least 60 percent in all five games while the latter has topped out at 48 percent twice. The result has been 72 touches for 429 yards from scrimmage and no TDs for Edmonds, while Conner has received 67 touches for 235 total yards and five scores.

  • Jake Funk RB | JAC

    Rams' Jake Funk: Downgraded to out

    Funk (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against the Giants, according to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.

    As expected, Funk has been downgraded and won't return to the game -- which was a likely scenario given how tricky hamstring injuries can be. His next chance to play will be in Week 7 against the Lions, but his availability will depend on the severity of the injury.

  • Jaguars' James Robinson: Tops 100 total yards

    Robinson recorded 17 rushes for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Dolphins. He added three receptions for 28 yards.

    Robinson handled all of the carries out of the Jaguars' backfield, with Trevor Lawrence the only other player to register a rush attempt for the team. He didn't have many big gains, but he did record a 28-yard rush and also found the end zone from one yard out early in the third quarter. Robinson also chipped in as a receiver and logged multiple receptions for the first time in his last three games. Most importantly, Robinson remains a workhorse back, recording 15 or more carries in each of his last four contests.

  • Jake Funk RB | JAC

    Rams' Jake Funk: Picks up hamstring injury

    Funk (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants, according to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.

    It's unclear when Funk picked up the injury, but hamstring problems are unpredictable, and there's no clarity regarding his potential return to action. He wasn't expected to hold a big role on offense with Darrell Henderson and Sony Michel both available, though.
