  • Justice Hill RB | BAL

    Ravens' Justice Hill: Tough sledding in Buffalo

    Hill had two carries for minus-14 yards and added a three-yard reception on two targets in Sunday's loss to the Bills.

    Hill had a healthy 45 percent snap share, but his usage was minimal as he had just four combined opportunities in 23 snaps. He had a mishap on one of his carries that resulted in a fumble and also had a target slip through his hands. Hill seems to be locked into a role as the passing down back who should see his share of targets as the season progresses -- he caught 42 passes in 2024 -- but rushing work will likely remain light. The Ravens host the Browns in Week 2.

  • Giants' Devin Singletary: Nets only nine yards in opener

    Singletary rushed three times for nine yards in Sunday's Week 1 loss to Washington.

    Singletary didn't get his first carry until the second quarter. He gained eight yards on his second rush attempt but combined for just one yard on his other two carries. Tyrone Tracy was New York's clear lead back with 50 offensive snaps Sunday, while Singletary got 10 and rookie Cam Skattebo logged eight. Both Tracy and Skattebo gathered two catches in the passing game while Singletary didn't even get targeted, so among the trio, Singletary emerged with the least encouraging performance. The Giants' ground game -- and offense as a whole -- struggled in Week 1, though, so it may take another contest or two to get a good handle on how the workload in the backfield will end up being divvied.

  • Blake Corum RB | LAR

    Rams' Blake Corum: Logs two touches in backup role

    Corum rushed once for two yards and secured his only target for 14 yards during Sunday's 14-9 victory against the Texans.

    The second-year back started his 2025 campaign in a similar fashion to his role at the end of his rookie year, seeing the field for just 10 snaps and making little impact on the game. Notably, Jarquez Hunter (coach's decision) was inactive for the game, while Cody Schrader was used only on special teams, leaving the backup role to Kyren Williams seemingly Corum's to lose. The Rams' next contest is against a Titans squad that allowed 153 yards rushing to the Broncos in Week 1.

  • Tank Bigsby RB | PHI

    Jaguars' Tank Bigsby: Logs five carries Week 1

    Bigsby turned five carries into 12 yards and added a 20-yard kickoff return during the Jaguars' 26-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Bigsby had the second-most carries on the Jaguars, but it was far from an even backfield split as his 14 snaps on offense was outdone by Travis Etienne (40). Etienne had the hot hand Sunday, turning 16 carries into 143 yards for a 8.9 YPC compared to Bisgby's 2.4 YPC. Bigsby wasn't targeted in the passing game, which will limit his usage as Etienne appears to be the Jaguars' clear lead back early in the season. Jacksonville will hit the road for Week 2 to take on the Bengals on Sunday.

  • Israel Abanikanda: Cut from Packers' practice squad

    Green Bay cut Abanikanda from the practice squad Monday.

    The move makes room on the practice squad for Pierre Strong. Abanikanda stuck around with Green Bay on the practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but the 2023 fifth-rounder will now be on the lookout for a team in need of backfield depth.

  • Ameer Abdullah RB | IND

    Ameer Abdullah: Gets opportunity with Indy

    The Colts signed Abdullah to the practice squad Monday.

    Abdullah reached an injury settlement with the 49ers in mid-August after reverting to the team's IR due to a rib injury. He appears to have fully recovered from the injury and will head to Indianapolis, where he'll be available for an elevation to the active roster should the Colts require backfield depth on game day. Abdullah appeared in 16 regular-season games for the Raiders in 2024 and posted 66 carries for 311 yards and two touchdowns while adding 40 catches (on 47 targets) for 261 yards and three scores. Khalil Herbert was cut from the Colts' practice squad in a corresponding move.

  • Khalil Herbert RB | NYJ

    Khalil Herbert: Cut from Indy's practice squad

    The Colts cut Herbert from the practice squad Monday.

    The move makes room on the Colts' practice squad for running back Ameer Abdullah. Herbert joined Indianapolis' scout team in late August after failing to make the 53-man active roster, but the 2021 sixth-rounder will now look to join a team in need of backfield depth. Herbert played in 14 regular-season games in 2024 between the Bengals (eight) and Bears (six) and totalled 36 carries for 130 yards and one touchdown while adding 10 catches (on 11 targets) for 25 yards.

  • 49ers' Isaac Guerendo: Limited to special teams

    Guerendo played 15 snaps on special teams and did not receive a carry in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Seahawks.

    The good news for Guerendo was that he was fully cleared from the shoulder injury that limited him in camp. The bad news for the sophomore tailback is that new addition Brian Robinson usurped him on the depth chart. Guerendo dropped to third in the pecking order and was limited to special teams, returning one kickoff for 16 yards. In his current role, Guerendo provides no fantasy utility heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Saints.

  • Montrell Johnson: Back with Philly

    Johnson signed with the Eagles' practice squad on Monday.

    Johnson was waived by the Eagles in late August after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster, but it now appears that he'll remain in Philadelphia on the practice squad. The Florida product flashed throughout the preseason, rushing for 77 yards and one touchdown on 21 carries. He could be elevated to the Eagles' active roster if the running back room is plagued by injuries later this year.

  • 49ers' Brian Robinson: Gets 10 touches in SF debut

    Robinson rushed nine times for 33 yards and had one reception for four yards on two targets in Sunday's 17-13 win over Seattle.

    Robinson had a smooth debut with San Francisco after being dealt from Washington just weeks before the start of the regular season. The 2022 third-round pick slotted directly behind starter Christian McCaffrey and handled 10 touches while playing 18 snaps on offense (24 percent). Robinson and his downhill running style should continue spelling McCaffrey while receiving a handful of touches against the Saints next Sunday.
