Emanuel Wilson RB | SEA
Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Relegated to special teams Monday
Wilson played just seven snaps -- all on special teams -- in Monday's 34-17 loss to the Bears.
After logging double-digit carries in six of the Seahawks' previous seven games while scoring four touchdowns and averaging 66.4 scrimmage yards during that span, Wilson fell out of the game plan entirely in Week 8. With Zach Charbonnet (knee) getting cleared to make his 2026 debut, Jadarian Price (chest) returning from injured reserve and George Holani still on hand as an option on passing downs, the Seahawks had no reps available out of the backfield for Wilson. Unless Charbonnet or Price succumbs to another injury, Wilson's playing time on offense will likely remain scarce moving forward.

Zach Charbonnet RB | SEA
Seahawks' Zach Charbonnet: Nine touches in season debut
Charbonnet (knee) rushed six times for 23 yards and brought in three of four targets for six yards in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.
Charbonnet took the first carry of the night for Seattle, gaining an encouraging five yards on his first tote since tearing his ACL in a divisional-round win over the 49ers in January. Charbonnet also subsequently rattled off a 13-yard gain in the third quarter, but he was limited on his other touches and ultimately had four fewer rush attempts than Jadarian Price. Charbonnet's snap share and touches should gradually increase, and a Week 9 home matchup against the Cardinals could serve as a good platform for his workload to see a nice bump.

Jadarian Price RB | SEA
Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Gains 37 total yards in return
Price rushed 10 times for 29 yards and brought in two of four targets for eight yards in the Seahawks' 34-17 loss to the Bears on Monday night.
Making his return from a four-game stay on injured reserve due to a chest injury, Price ended up leading the Seahawks' ground attack in carries and rushing yards. Price's return coincided with the season debut of Zach Charbonnet (knee), who logged six carries in his own right in a game whose script eventually turned unfriendly to the running game. Monday may have served as a preview of that might be expected in terms of the division of labor between the two players, but more information will be gleaned during a Week 9 home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday that should afford both backs more opportunities.

D'Andre Swift RB | CHI
Bears' D'Andre Swift: Three-TD night in win
Swift rushed 27 times for 69 yards and three touchdowns and brought in two of three targets for 10 yards in the Bears' 34-17 win over the Seahawks on Monday night.
Swift put in a full night's work while repeatedly butting heads with the Seahawks' elite run defense, as his longest run went for only seven yards and he averaged 2.6 yards per carry overall. Swift sealed the win for Chicago with his third touchdown of the game, a five-yard run with 4:41 remaining. That score was preceded by one- and five-yard scores earlier in the second half, and Swift's carry total was a season high. The veteran running back is up to a career-high 10 rushing touchdowns heading into a Week 9 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday night.

Jaylen Wright RB | MIA
Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Remains non-factor in Week 8
Wright rushed two times for five yards in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Patriots.
Wright failed to catch his lone target in the passing game and remains firmly planted behind Ollie Gordon on the depth chart. While Gordon has been one of the most productive running backs on a per-carry basis this season, Wright has seemingly been stuck in the mud as a runner, averaging a pitiful 1.9 yards per carry on 22 attempts.

Jaydon Blue RB | PHI
Eagles' Jaydon Blue: Catches one pass in 2026 debut
Blue caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday night's 27-10 loss to the Commanders.
It was the running back's first action of the regular season after he was signed to the active roster last week. Blue logged eight offensive snaps and sits behind Saquon Barkley and Elijah Mitchell on the depth chart. With Tank Bigsby (abdomen) likely due back in the near future, Blue's stay on the 53-man roster could be short.
-
Sean Tucker RB | TB
Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Doesn't see field on offense in win
Tucker didn't play any offensive snaps in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
The Bucs' RB3 played one snap on special teams. He stayed glued to the sideline, as Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell ran roughshod all over the Atlanta defense, combining for 52 carries for 310 yards and one touchdown. Tucker won't hold much fantasy value unless one of Irving or Gainwell goes down with an injury.
-
Samaje Perine RB | CIN
Bengals' Samaje Perine: Totals 19 yards against Tennessee
Perine rushed four times for 10 yards and caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 43-36 overtime win over the Titans.
The Bengals were chasing the Titans on the scoreboard much of the afternoon and Chase Brown and Perine combined for just 16 carries, as Joe Burrow fired off 48 pass attempts. Perine is a touchdown-or-bust desperation RB3 in fantasy whose main value comes in the form of being Brown's backup. Cincinnati has been linked to a potential trade for a running back ahead of next week's deadline.
-
Isaiah Davis RB | NYJ
Jets' Isaiah Davis: Five carries against Las Vegas
Davis rushed five times for 15 yards in Sunday's 38-33 loss to the Raiders.
With Breece Hall (quad) missing another game, Davis handled RB2 duties behind workhorse Braelon Allen. Davis has totaled 15 carries for 44 empty yards this season, adding five catches for 68 yards. Hall is expected to return for Week 9 against the Chiefs, which would relegate Davis to the RB3 role.
-
Elijah Mitchell RB | PHI
Eagles' Elijah Mitchell: Heads back to practice squad
Mitchell reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Mitchell was heavily involved in Philadelphia's loss at Washington in Week 8, carrying the ball 11 times for 34 yards and adding four catches on six targets for three yards. Starter Saquon Barkley was in and out of Sunday's contest with a back injury, and he was less effective than Mitchell as a rusher. Mitchell can be elevated from the practice squad once more this season before the Eagles would have to sign him to the active roster for him to be allowed to suit up for regular-season games.
