Saints interim head coach Darren Rizzi said Tuesday that Kamara (groin) is attempting to return this season and hasn't been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Rizzi noted that Kamara met with him earlier Tuesday and let him know that he wants to suit up Sunday, though a decision on the running back's status isn't expected to be made until later in the week, after the Saints get a chance to see how he responds to practice work. While Kamara was sidelined for his first game of the season in Monday's 34-0 loss to the Packers, Kendre Miller stepped in as New Orleans' lead back but was limited to 31 total yards on 10 touches (eight carries, two receptions).

Homer (hamstring) was estimated as a non-participant in a practice walkthrough Tuesday.

The Bears have held a walkthrough each of the first two days of the week, and Homer has been estimated as a DNP both times. The veteran running back was injured during practice last Friday and missed Sunday's matchup against Detroit. If he's held out of action again Thursday versus Seattle, Darrynton Evans could again work as Chicago's No. 3 running back, though Evans didn't see any offensive snaps in that role Sunday despite Homer's absence.

Goodson had four carries for 22 yards in Sunday's win over Tennessee.

Goodson had his most carries since Week 7 as he got some work with the Colts having a large lead. Jonathan Taylor had 218 yards rushing and the Colts had 335 yards rushing, so neither Goodson or Trey Sermon are likely to get many carries next week unless a similar blowout scenario happens. Goodson had minimal work the previous eight weeks (three total touches) as Taylor has received almost every touch in the backfield.

Sermon had eight carries for 25 yards in Sunday's win over Tennessee.

Sermon had his most carries since Week 7 as he got some work with the Colts having a large lead. Jonathan Taylor had 218 yards rushing and the Colts had 335 yards rushing, so Sermon isn't likely to get many carries next week unless a similar blowout scenario happens. Sermon had minimal work the previous five weeks (1 carry total) as Taylor has received almost every touch in the backfield.

Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Tuesday that Conner (knee) has a chance to play in Saturday's game against the Rams, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Even though they were eliminated from the playoffs after Sunday's 36-30 overtime loss to the Panthers, the 7-8 Cardinals aren't looking to shut Conner down due to the knee injury he suffered in Week 16. That said, given that Arizona has little at stake over the final two games of the season, Conner may not be cleared to play Sunday if the knee injury affects his practice participation leading up to the contest. Even if Conner gets the green light to suit up, the Cardinals could also look to lighten his workload in order to preserve his health heading into next season. With Trey Benson (ankle) also working through an injury that kept him sidelined for the loss to Carolina, Michael Carter would be the next man up for work out of the backfield if neither Conner nor Benson are able to play in Los Angeles.

Wilson had 11 carries for 52 yards and a touchdown and caught his only target for four yards in Monday's 34-0 victory over the Saints.

Wilson racked up all of four carries for 16 yards across Weeks 14 and 15, but he easily surpassed both marks Monday as the Packers lightened the load on starter Josh Jacobs. The latter figures to get as many carries as he can handle in a key Week 17 matchup with the Vikings, so expect Wilson and fellow reserve Chris Brooks -- who also scored in Week 16 -- to be back in complementary roles.

Brooks had six carries for 23 yards and a touchdown and caught his only target for two yards in Monday's 34-0 victory over the Saints.

Brooks came close to picking up his first score a couple times earlier in the season, and he finally found paydirt in Week 16. Both Brooks and Emanuel Wilson were more involved than usual Monday, but that's because the Packers ran up the score and conserved starter Josh Jacobs. In a key matchup for both the Packers and Vikings in Week 17, Jacobs should resume his role as the bell cow back.

Akers had one carry for three yards in Sunday's win at Seattle.

Akers played on just seven of the offense's 66 snaps as Minnesota stuck with Aaron Jones (54 snaps) more than usual with him playing well. Akers should get more touches the final two games to keep Jones fresh.

Tucker didn't log any snaps on offense and 13 on special teams in the Buccaneers' 26-24 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday night.

Tucker failed to play on offense for the second time in the last four games and just one week after logging seven carries, his second-highest tally of the season. Bucky Irving and Rachaad White were entrusted with the full workload in terms of Tampa Bay's ground game, although they only saw a modest 19 carries between them. Tucker's week-to-week role has plenty of volatility attached to it, making him a risky play despite his upside, especially heading into championship week in many leagues.

Miller rushed eight times for 15 yards and brought in both targets for 16 yards in the Saints' 34-0 loss to the Packers on Monday night. He also returned one kickoff for 21 yards.

The second-year back helmed the backfield in place of Alvin Kamara (groin), but he unsurprisingly found running room at a premium and soon saw game script turn against the ground attack altogether. Miller now has 27 carries over the last three games, while his receiving yardage total was a new season high. Miller would likely reprise his No. 1 gig in a favorable Week 17 home matchup against the Raiders if Kamara remains out, considering Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims appear destined to continue serving in complementary roles.
