Jones (shoulder/toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens but is expected to play, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Jones ended Week 10 prep with back-to-back limited practices to draw the questionable tag, but he relayed to reporters after Friday's session that he'll "be in a good spot" by Sunday, per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com. Jones' official status may not be known until the Vikings announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but the veteran running back is trending toward being available for the Vikings. Jordan Mason and Zavier Scott would be in line for more backfield snaps if Jones is ruled out or operates on a snap count.

The Cowboys signed Davis to their practice squad Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Davis was not claimed by another team after Dallas waived him Tuesday, and now he's back with the club's practice squad. With Javonte Williams and rookie fifth-rounder Jaydon Blue currently the only healthy running backs on the 53-man roster, Davis again could become a candidate for elevation after the Cowboys' bye in Week 10.

Johnson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Johnson was a full participant in practice all week, but he's not quite ready to return from injured reserve. Given his ability to ramp up his practice participation, the seventh-year pro should be activated from IR ahead of the Texans' Week 11 clash against the Titans on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Nwangwu (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Nwangwu was unable to play against the Bengals in Week 8 while in the league's concussion protocol. He had more time to progress in his recovery courtesy of the Jets' Week 9 bye and was a full participant during Week 10 prep. Nwangwu has passed the final step of being cleared by an independent neurologist and will play against Cleveland on Sunday, when he will mostly serve on special teams as a kickoff returner while providing depth in the backfield behind Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis.

Herbert (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Herbert popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a groin issue that limited his practice participation over the final two days of Week 10 prep. His status may not be known until the Jets announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Herbert is not cleared to play, then Kene Nwangwu would serve as the Jets' RB3 behind Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis.

Reynolds (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Reynolds logged a trio of limited practices during Week 10 prep, and he has a chance of returning from a one-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Even if he were cleared to play against Washington, Reynolds carries very little value from a fantasy perspective for as long as he operates behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Sione Vaki is slated to step up as the Lions' RB3 if Reynolds is unable to play Sunday.

Saylors (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

A back issue prevented Saylors from participating in the final two practices of Week 10 prep, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for Sunday's road contest. Craig Reynolds (hamstring) is currently listed as questionable, and if he were to join Saylors on the Lions' inactive list, then Sione Vaki would serve as the Lions' RB3 behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Saylors' next opportunity to suit up is Week 11 against the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Chubb (foot) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.

After sitting out Wednesday's practice due to a foot injury, Chubb progressed to limited Thursday and full to wrap up Week 10 prep, paving the way for him to continue to be a part of the Texans backfield this weekend. He's ceded more snaps to fellow RB Woody Marks in three games since Houston's Week 6 bye, but Chubb still has earned 36 touches (for 114 total yards and no TDs) to Marks' 38 touches (for 173 total yards and one TD) during that stretch. Expect the near-even split of reps between them to be maintained Sunday.

Jones (shoulder/toe) said Friday that he thinks he'll "be in a good spot" by Sunday to play against Baltimore, after the Vikings listed him as questionable on their final injury report, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

Following last week's early exit, Jones managed limited practices Thursday and Friday. He told reporters after Friday's practice that he's feeling good, though he did seem to hint at his Sunday availability depending on continued progress over the next two days. Should Jones end up inactive ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, Jordan Mason and Zavier Scott would take on larger roles in Minnesota's backfield.

White is slated to lead the Buccaneers backfield Sunday against the Patriots with Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) ruled out for the Week 10 contest, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Irving hasn't practiced since suffering a shoulder subluxation and a left foot sprain Week 4 and will miss his fifth straight game Sunday. White has been the biggest beneficiary of Irving's absence, totaling 262 yards from scrimmage and three rushing scores on 67 touches over the last four games. Reserve back Sean Tucker (26 touches for 72 total yards and two rushing touchdowns) has also taken on an increased role while Irving has been out. The going may be tough for White in Week 10 versus a New England defense that has held opposing running backs to an NFL-low 3.1 yards per carry this season.
