Skattebo carried the ball 25 times for 79 yards and caught both his targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Chargers. He also ran for a two-point conversion.

The rookie RB become the focal point of the Giants offense with Jaxson Dart getting his first career NFL start under center and Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) sidelined, with Skattebo's 27 touches representing a huge increase on the career-high 16 he got last week. That volume on the ground came in a contest that New York led from its opening possession, however, a game script that may not be repeated too often in 2025. Devin Singletary got seven carries as the backup with Tracy out, but Skattebo should remain the unquestioned top option in the backfield Week 5 against the Saints.

Montgomery rushed the ball nine times for 12 yards in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Browns.

The game script set up well for Montgomery, as the Lions led by multiple scores for nearly the entire second half. However, Jahmyr Gibbs out-touched him 17-9, and Montgomery was stymied even when he did get opportunities. His longest rush went for only four yards, and he failed to reach 20 rushing yards for only the third time in his 32 games with the Lions.

Miller totaled 11 carries for 65 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 31-19 loss to Buffalo.

Miller logged double-digit carries for the first time this season en route to his most productive rushing output of 2025. The third-year back found the end zone for an 18-yard touchdown on his first carry of the game, and logged only four fewer carries than Alvin Kamara. Miller struggled to maintain consistent playing time during his first two seasons due to injuries and an overall lack of production, and this was his best career outing aside from a big Week 18 performance in 2023. He'll look to carve out a larger workload once again during the Saints' Week 5 matchup versus the Giants, whose defense has allowed a league-worst 6.1 yards per carry this season.

Blue (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday Night Football against the Packers.

This is now the fourth time in four games that Blue has been a healthy scratch to open his rookie year. The fifth-round pick remains behind Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders on the depth chart.

Judkins rushed 21 times for 82 yards and a touchdown and secured all four of his targets for 33 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

While the final score was lopsided, the Browns were reasonably competitive for the majority of the game, which kept Judkins involved. In fact, his carry total was his highest yet through three games, and he got into the end zone for the second consecutive contest on a one-yard run to open the scoring in the first quarter. Judkins' reception and receiving yardage totals were also new career-high figures, and he'll continue in his workhorse role during a Week 5 matchup against the Vikings in London.

Pollard rushed the ball 14 times for 64 yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Texans. He caught all three of his targets for 12 yards.

Pollard had moments of effectiveness, recording his first rush of at least 20 yards with a gain of 21 early in the second quarter. He also had a decent chunk run of 11 yards one quarter later to reach at least 60 rushing yards for the third time in four games this season. While Pollard has played relatively well, the Tennessee offense is so ineffective that it's hard for any skill-position player to maintain consistent fantasy value, and the eventual return of Tyjae Spears (ankle) will likely cut into Pollard's touch volume.

Hubbard rushed 10 times for 49 yards and brought in all three of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 42-13 loss to the Patriots.

Hubbard's rushing opportunities were unsurprisingly limited in the lopsided loss, but he made good use of them on his way to a team-high yardage total on the ground. The fifth-year pro's carry total tied for his lowest of the season, and he's now posted multiple receptions in all four contests to date in 2025. Hubbard should have a better chance at more rushing volume in a Week 5 home matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday afternoon, a game Miami's suspect defense will play on a short week.

Hampton carried the ball 12 times for 128 yards and a touchdown and caught all five of his targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Giants.

The rookie running back capped his huge performance with a 54-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter as the Chargers tried to mount a comeback. Hampton has erupted for 294 yards from scrimmage and two TDs over the last two games as he takes over as the Chargers' unquestioned lead back in the absence of Najee Harris (Achilles), and he could be poised for big numbers once again Week 5 against a Commanders defense that just got steamrolled for 181 combined yards and a score by the Falcons' Bijan Robinson.

Goodson (groin) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Rams.

Jonathan Taylor and DJ Giddens will be the Colts' two backfield options for the rest of Sunday's game, although Goodson's involvement in the offense has been minimal so far in 2025.

Mitchell (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Mitchell will be a healthy scratch for a fourth consecutive game, and his next chance to make his 2025 regular-season debut comes Week 5 against the Jaguars on Monday, Oct. 6. Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt and rookie seventh-rounder Brashard Smith will be Kansas City's three active running backs for Sunday's contest.
