Walker (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game at Chicago, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Walker returned from a two-game absence due to a calf injury this past Sunday against the Vikings, but he suffered an ankle issue in the second half and finished Week 16 with 16 touches for 59 yards from scrimmage. Now that the Seahawks have made a decision on his availability for Week 17 action, Walker again will hand off the Seahawks backfield to Zach Charbonnet, who reeled off 259 total yards and three rushing touchdowns on 38 touches when Walker was out Weeks 14 and 15.

Kamara (groin) was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice report.

Kamara hasn't practiced since suffering an adductor injury during a Week 15 loss to the Commanders. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi told Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football on Tuesday that Kamara will attempt to return this season, but it's unclear how much of a chance the running back has to play Sunday versus the Raiders. Kamara likely will need to mix into at least some drills Thursday and/or Friday to put himself on a path to do so. Kendre Miller, Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims will represent the Saints' backfield options for Week 17 if Kamara isn't able to play.

Mitchell is active for Wednesday's game against the Texans, Clifford Brown of the Ravens' official site reports.

Mitchell has been a healthy inactive for the Ravens' last three games, but he will suit up Christmas Day due to Justice Hill being ruled out with a concussion. Baltimore has opted for rookie fifth-round pick Rasheen Ali to serve as the third-string running back behind Derrick Henry and Hill over its last three games, so Ali could settle into the No. 2 role ahead of Mitchell on Wednesday. Mitchell is also likely to be involved on special teams as a kickoff returner.

Dobbins (knee) was listed as limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.

After the Chargers designated him for return from injured reserve Monday following a four-game absence, Dobbins has now turned in a pair of limited practices to begin Week 17 prep. Meanwhile, fellow running back Gus Edwards (ankle) has also logged two straight limited listings, which sets the stage for Thursday's session to be an important in determining the statuses of Dobbins and Edwards heading into Saturday's game against the Patriots. The Chargers would need to activate Dobbins from injured reserve by Friday in order for him to play Saturday.

Edwards (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.

Edwards, who was also listed as limited Tuesday, has one more chance to practice fully this week before the Chargers decide whether he'll carry a designation into Saturday's game against the Patriots. Fellow running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) has also been listed as a limited for the first two Week 17 practices, after the Chargers opened his 21-day evaluation window Monday by designating him for return from injured reserve. More information regarding the composition of the Chargers' Week 17 backfield will arrive following Thursday's practice.

Pacheco was forced out of Wednesday's game against the Steelers due to a rib injury.

Prior to exiting the game, Pacheco carried six times for 18 yards. In Pacheco's absence, Kareem Hunt will likely operate as Kansas City's lead back, with Samaje Perine and Carson Steele on hand as depth options.

The Giants listed Tracy (ankle) as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

On Monday, coach Brian Daboll told Salomone that Tracy aggravated an ankle injury this past Sunday in Atlanta, a game in which the running back logged a typical 63 percent snap share and turned 11 touches into 69 yards from scrimmage and one receiving touchdown. In lieu of practicing on Christmas Day, the Giants opted to hold an unofficial session Tuesday in which Tracy ended up sitting out, prompting the team to list him as a non-participant when the first Week 17 injury report was published a day later. He'll have two more chances to mix into drills Thursday and Friday before the team potentially makes a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts. Devin Singletary is the next man up in New York's backfield in the event Tracy is limited or inactive this weekend.

Elliott rushed once for a one-yard touchdown in Sunday's 26-24 win over the Buccaneers.

Elliott made the most of his one carry, finding the end zone from one yard out for his third rushing touchdown of the season. The 29-year-old running back played just three offensive snaps in the contest, while teammate Rico Dowdle continued to lead the backfield with 46 snaps in the game. With such limited opportunities, Elliott remains off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Eagles.

Johnson rushed six times for 30 yards and failed to reel in his lone target in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Johnson wasn't able to get much going Sunday despite leading all Bills running backs in playing time. The veteran handled 23 offensive snaps, while James Cook and Ray Davis played 21 and 14 snaps, respectively. While Cook is the clear favorite for valuable running back touches in Buffalo's offense, Johnson remains an unreliable fantasy option heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Jets.

Davis rushed five times for 12 yards and caught his lone target for 17 yards in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Davis was on the field for just 14 of the Bills' 59 offensive snaps, the fewest of any Buffalo running back behind Ty Johnson (23) and James Cook (21). Barring an injury to either Cook or Johnson, Davis will continue to be an unreliable fantasy option going forward. The Bills will host the Jets in Week 17.
