Kamara carried the ball 11 times for 45 yards and a touchdown and caught both his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 20-13 loss to Arizona.

The veteran RB showed he had plenty of juice left in the tank on the Saints' only TD of the game, an 18-yard scamper early in the second quarter, but Kamara otherwise didn't find much running room. Kellen Moore's new offense leaned heavily on the passing game as Spencer Rattler attempted a career-high 46 passes, but that may not be a detriment to Kamara's production given his proven ability as a receiver. He'll look to make an impact again at home Week 2 against the 49ers.

Benson carried the ball eight times for 69 yards and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Saints.

The second-year back led Arizona in rushing thanks to a 52-yard scamper around right end on the team's first drive of the second half. James Conner saw 12 carries but gained only 39 yards, with his longest run going for 12, and the split both of touches and of production bodes well for Benson as the season moves forward. He'll look to continue carving out a significant role in the offense at home Week 2 against the Panthers.

Conner carried the ball 12 times for 39 yards and caught all four of his targets for five yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Saints.

The veteran was bottled up at the line of scrimmage and watched second-year back Trey Benson break off a 52-yard gain to help him lead the Cardinals in rushing on the day, but Conner was able to make an impact with a four-yard TD catch on an underhand flip from Kyler Murray in the second quarter. Benson was expected to cut into Conner's workload as the 2025 season progressed, but the split could tip even further in the youngster's favor based on the duo's Week 1 performances. Conner will look to reinforce his claim to the RB1 role at home Week 2 against the Panthers.

Croskey-Merritt rushed 10 times for 82 yards and a touchdown while failing to catch his only target in Sunday's 21-6 win over the Giants.

Croskey-Merritt got as many rushing attempts as Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols combined. The highlights of the rookie seventh-round pick's NFL debut were a six-yard touchdown run in the second quarter and a 42-yard run in the fourth. Croskey-Merritt looks like the team's go-to option on early downs heading into Thursday's Week 2 game at Green Bay, but his lack of pass-catching ability should allow Ekeler to stay involved in passing situations.

Ekeler rushed six times for 26 yards and caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 21-6 win over the Giants.

Ekeler finished third on the team in rushing yards and third in receiving yards, working as a secondary option in the offense out of the backfield. Rookie seventh-round pick Jacory Croskey-Merritt led the rushing attack with 10 carries for 82 yards and a touchdown while Jeremy McNichols mixed in for 25 yards on four carries, but neither of those running backs had a catch Sunday. Ekeler's likely to play primarily in passing situations, and that role could yield greater dividends in games that require Washington to play catch-up, which may be the case on the road in Week 2 against the Packers on Thursday.

Tracy rushed 10 times for 24 yards and caught two of five targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 21-6 loss to the Commanders.

Tracy failed to find any running room, though Devin Singletary and rookie fourth-round pick Cam Skattebo were even worse, with a combined six rushing yards on five carries. Poor offensive play could limit the Giants' offense all season, but Tracy at least looks like the team's clear lead back to begin his second NFL season. Tracy will try to bounce back in Week 2 against the Cowboys.

Henderson rushed five times for 27 yards and brought in all six targets for 24 yards in the Patriots' 20-13 loss to the Raiders on Sunday. He also returned two kickoffs for 43 yards.

The rookie second-round pick was given plenty of opportunity in his first NFL regular-season game, and even when game script turned somewhat away from the run, Henderson remained involved as a receiver on his way to a co-team-high reception total. Backfield mate Rhamondre Stevenson outpaced Henderson by only two carries, which would appear to bode well for the latter's prospects in a Week 2 road matchup next Sunday against what appears to be a porous Dolphins defense.

Brown rushed the ball 21 times for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns. He added two receptions on three targets for eight yards.

The Bengals' offense was sluggish in their Week 1 win, and Brown's performance was a mix of positive and negative. He was very inefficient, averaging only 2.0 yards per carry with a long gain of eight yards. On the other hand, Brown was the only Bengals running back to get a carry, and he also converted a one-yard touchdown at the goal line. While the stat line wasn't particularly strong, Brown's usage will keep him locked in as one of the best fantasy options at the position.

Allen rushed six times for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-32 loss to the Steelers. He wasn't targeted in the passing game.

Allen was stopped short on a two-point conversion attempt in the first quarter but bounced back with an eight-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. His five other carries produced just one yard, while Breece Hall turned 21 touches into 145 yards. The 6-foot-1, 235-pound Allen could work as the more powerful complement to the shifty Hall in a run-heavy Jets offense, but Allen won't get many opportunities if he continues to get stuffed on the majority of his carries. Allen will look to improve his efficiency in Week 2 against the Bills.

Hall rushed 19 times for 107 yards and caught two of four targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 34-32 loss to the Steelers.

Hall ripped off an 18-yard run on the game's first play, setting the tone for a strong performance on the ground. He was also the team's second-leading receiver behind Garrett Wilson. Braelon Allen had an eight-yard touchdown run but mustered only one yard on five other carries, so Hall's the clear lead back for the Jets heading into a Week 2 home game against the Bills.
