Toussaint had three carries for 14 yards in Pittsburgh's 27-24 overtime win against Cleveland on Sunday. He also caught both passes thrown to him for 24 yards.

Toussaint, who will continue to serve as a back-up to Le'Veon Bell and DeAngelo Williams heading in to the playoffs, finishes the regular season with 58 yards on 14 carries and three receptions for 33 yards.

Harris carried the ball four times for a negative yard and also lost a fumble in Sunday's season finale against the Seahawks.

Harris finishes his 2016 campaign with 253 all-purpose yards and one touchdown while serving as a backup for the 49ers. The soon-to-be free agent's size and running style isn't suited to take on anything other than a change-of-pace role, so there is a decent chance the team brings him back to serve in a similar role behind Carlos Hyde next season.

Murray had just five carries for 11 yards and caught his lone target for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-6 loss at Denver.

Up until last week, it looked like Murray had established himself as Oakland's true workhorse back, but DeAndre Washington has re-emerged over the last two games, rushing for 142 yards and two touchdowns. With Jalen Richard also in the mix for 6-to-10 touches per week, Murray doesn't appear to be that attractive of an option for fantasy owners participating in playoff leagues.

Draughn caught four of six targets for 68 yards and added 41 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

Draughn circled out of the backfield for gains of 27 and 29 yards and put San Francisco in the driver's seat early with a pair of one-yard touchdown runs. The veteran journeyman enters free agency as a player who has found a niche in San Francisco as a pass-catching back. His future in the Bay Area is somewhat limited, however, given the likely changes at the top and the fact that Carlos Hyde, who missed Sunday's game with an injury, is one of the few pieces of promise on the team's roster.

Gillislee carried 15 times for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's game against the Jets. He also caught his only target for an additional 10 yards in the 30-10 loss.

Gillislee saw his role expand as LeSean McCoy (ankle) was forced to leave the game, and despite his inefficient average of 2.7 yards per carry he was able to carve out a useful fantasy line due to the volume of touches he received. Although Gillislee played second fiddle to McCoy for most of the season, he will finish with an impressive total of eight touchdowns and averaged 5.7 yards per carry overall. He will be a free agent in the offseason and should command interest after a successful campaign as a part-time player in 2016.

Rawls rushed for 14 yards and a touchdown on eight carries in Sunday's win over San Francisco.

Rawls gave Seattle the lead late in the first half with a one-yard touchdown plunge, his first touchdown since Week 13. Rawls has failed to live up to the promise of his rookie season during his sophomore campaign, battling through injury and the abbreviated emergence of rookie C.J. Prosise. He enters the playoffs as the Seahawks' top back, however, though rookie Alex Collins has stepped up in recent weeks - particularly as a receiver. His value next week will be tied to Seattle's opponent - Green Bay entering Week 17 with a top-10 rush defense while Detroit's falls in the middle of the road.

Hillman nabbed three of six targets for 50 yards and added 41 yards on seven carries in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs.

Hillman did a bunch of damage on chunk plays on Sunday, three of his 10 touches going for 15 yards or more. The pint-sized speedster has floated around Minnesota and San Diego this season, but Sunday served as a reminder that he was talented enough to lead Denver in rushing last season. His future with the Chargers is likely tied to the future of his former offensive coordinator in Denver, San Diego head coach Mike McCoy.

Kelley rushed for 33 yards on 12 attempts in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

Kelley never found his groove against a bruising Giants defense, with his longest rush of the game totaling a measly seven yards. In 15 games this season, the rookie rushed for 704 yards and six touchdowns. He came out of nowhere in Week 8 to take over for Matt Jones, who struggled holding onto the ball early in the year. Kelley never looked back, solidifying his role as Washington's top back. He is under contract through the 2018 season and will be the odds-on favorite to be the starter next season.

Rodgers gained 75 yards on 17 carries and secured his sole target for four yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Panthers.

Rodgers assumed clear-cut lead back duties as expected Sunday, but somewhat surprisingly received less than 20 carries. However, as has often been the case this season, he was productive with his opportunities, posting a solid 4.4 YPC. Heading into the offseason, the running back position for the Bucs is unexpectedly in a relative state of disarray due to Doug Martin's suspension and related personal issues, which thus gives Rodgers a realistic opportunity to return to the team next season in some capacity. Both his history with head coach Dirk Koetter and his strong efforts this season (560 rushing yards, 98 receiving yards) should certainly help bolster his case in this regard.

McKinnon ran 16 times for 89 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's game against the Bears. He also caught three of four targets for an additional 21 yards and a score in the 38-10 win.

McKinnon managed just under five yards per carry and his running helped salt the game away after the team jumped out to an early lead. He opened the scoring with a 16-yard catch in the first quarter and found the end zone again on a one-yard conversion in the fourth. McKinnon showed flashes this season but was somewhat inefficient with an average of just 3.4 yards per carry and four total touchdowns. The Vikings will get Adrian Peterson back and presumably healthy next season, but McKinnon should again be in line to serve as the team's top backup.
