  • Kimani Vidal RB | LAC

    Kimani Vidal: Reverts to practice squad

    Vidal reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Vidal was elevated to the Chargers' active roster for Week 4 following Najee Harris' season-ending Achilles injury in Week 3 against the Broncos. Vidal saw the field for seven snaps (two on offense, five on special teams) and was the firm RB3 behind Omarion Hampton and Hassan Haskins. Vidal did log one kickoff return for 25 yards and would likely reprise that role were he to be elevated by the Chargers again this season.

  • Braelon Allen RB | NYJ

    Jets' Braelon Allen: Quickly ruled out

    Allen (knee) will not return to Monday's game against the Dolphins, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinelreports.

    Allen was injured on a kickoff return late in the second quarter when a defender was pushed down in front of him and fell into his knee. He was able to walk off the field and to the locker room under his own power, but Allen was quickly ruled out. Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis will be counted on to handle the majority of work out of the backfield for the rest of the game.

  • Braelon Allen RB | NYJ

    Jets' Braelon Allen: Heads to locker room

    Allen walked to the locker room with an apparent knee injury in Monday's game against the Dolphins, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Allen was tackled low on a kickoff return in the second quarter and limped off the field. He was able to go to the locker room under his own power, though his status for at least the rest of the game is in question.

  • Raheem Blackshear: Parts ways with Tennessee

    The Titans cut Blackshear from their practice squad Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Tennessee signed Blackshear to a practice-squad deal Sept. 23, but the former Carolina Panther wasn't given much time to make an impression. The Titans instead opted to take a look at fellow running back Blake Watson, who was signed to the practice squad in a move corresponding with Blackshear's departure.

  • Broncos' Jaleel McLaughlin: Inactive again

    McLaughlin (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Bengals.

    McLaughlin has yet to be active this season, as he's behind J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie on the depth chart.

  • Jaydon Blue RB | DAL

    Cowboys' Jaydon Blue: Getting closer to being active

    Coach Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that Blue is very close to being active on game days, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Blue has been a healthy inactive for each of Dallas' first four games, and as long as both Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders (ankle) are healthy and producing, it's hard to see the rookie making an impact in the box score. Blue is little more than an end-of-bench stash in deeper fantasy leagues and a hold in dynasty formats.

  • Miles Sanders RB | DAL

    Cowboys' Miles Sanders: Injury not considered severe

    Coach Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that Sanders (ankle) is trending toward being able to play Sunday against the Jets, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Sanders left this past Sunday night's tie against the Packers in the second quarter and was unable to return. However, it sounds like he avoided a serious injury. Sanders has been operating as the change-of-pace option behind Javonte Williams in Dallas' backfield to begin the season.

  • Bucky Irving RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Dealing with injury

    Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said Monday that Irving is among the list of players who sustained an injury during Sunday's 31-25 loss to the Eagles, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Bowles implied that Irving is one of multiple players awaiting MRI results Monday, per Greg Auman of Fox Sports, but he declined to offer specifics about what sort of injury the second-year pro is dealing with. Irving enjoyed his most productive outing of the season Sunday, rushing 15 times for 63 yards and hauling in all five of his targets for 102 yards and a touchdown. The Buccaneers will wait and see if Irving is available on the road against Seattle in Week 5, though if he were to miss any time, both Rachaad White and Sean Tucker would stand to inherit increased backfield roles.

  • Hassan Haskins RB | LAC

    Chargers' Hassan Haskins: No bump in playing time

    Haskins played five offensive snaps and did not record an offensive stat in the 21-18 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

    Haskins played five offensive snaps compared to Kimani Vidal's two, but the backfield clearly belonged to rookie Omarion Hampton who put together another fantastic performance on virtually the entire workload. Haskins projects to be the short-yardage back if the Chargers opt for that route, but otherwise clearly isn't a relevant backup in this offense.

  • Sean Tucker RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Three returns in Week 4 loss

    Tucker returned three kickoffs for 54 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-25 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

    Tucker once again was left out of the offense entirely, but he still had three opportunities with the ball in his hands thanks to his role as primary kickoff returner. Tucker has just one carry through four games, but he's accumulated 285 yards on 12 kickoff returns, leaving him 125 yards and three runbacks short of his numbers in those categories across 17 regular-season games in 2024.
