Coach Mike Vrabel noted Friday that Henderson (concussion) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Reiss previously reported that Henderson had shed his red (non-contact) jersey during Friday's practice, but at this stage it's unclear where the running back is in terms of the NFL's concussion protocol. On that subject, Vrabel said Friday,"He's in the protocol until he's not." If Henderson ends up unavailable this weekend, fellow RB Rhamondre Stevenson would be in line to see an expanded role Week 17, with D'Ernest Johnson available to mix in, while Elijah Mitchell and Jashaun Corbin would be candidates to be elevated from the Patriots' practice squad.

Sampson (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Sampson returned to practice as a limited participant during Week 17 prep after having missed Cleveland's prior two contests. The team will provide official word on his status no later than 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Sampson is cleared to face Pittsburgh on the road, he'll have an opportunity to handle the starting role in the Browns backfield, while Trayveon Williams and Raheim Sanders operate as depth options.

Scott didn't play a snap on offense in Thursday's 23-10 win over the Lions, though he logged 10 snaps on special teams and made two tackles.

With Jordan Mason (ankle) unable to play Thursday, there was some expectation that Scott could move into the RB2 role. Instead, that assignment went to Ty Chandler, who was just activated from IR on Tuesday and was available for the first time since Week 1. Even as the Vikings went to a run-heavy game plan on Christmas Day, Scott didn't log an offensive snap, with Aaron Jones (18-53-1) and Chandler (7-24-0) handling all of the RB reps. Even if Mason remains out to action for the season finale against the Packers next Sunday, it doesn't look like Scott will be targeted for a big role (unless the out-of-contention Vikings decide to rest vets like Jones and/or Chandler).

McNichols carried the ball once for minus-2 yards and secured all three of his targets for 12 yards during Thursday's 30-23 loss to the Cowboys.

McNichols saw little involvement on offense even with Chris Rodriguez (illness) a late scratch for Thursday's divisional contest. Instead, Jacory Croskey-Merritt dominated backfield opportunities, rushing 11 times for 105 yards and two touchdowns. If Rodriguez is able to retake the field Week 18 against Philadelphia, expect McNichols to revert to his usual No. 3 role.

Smith had zero carries and reeled in three of his four targets for five yards and a touchdown during Thursday's 20-13 loss to the Broncos.

Smith has seen a slight uptick in his snap share over the last couple of weeks, and it wouldn't be shocking if that's the case again in the season finale in Week 18 with Kansas City eliminated from playoff contention for the first time since 2014. The rookie back hasn't proved a ton as a runner, averaging just under 3.0 yards per carry, but he's been a solid contributor as a receiver out of the backfield, hauling in 23 of his 31 targets for 170 yards and a touchdown in his inaugural NFL campaign. He'll have one more opportunity to add to that total before his rookie season expires.

McLaughlin rushed the ball seven times for 40 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs.

McLaughlin closed the gap in workload to RJ Harvey in Week 16, though he was the clear complementary back once again Thursday. He was out-touched 19-7 by Harvey, though McLaughlin did chip in a 15-yard run just before halftime to set up a field goal for the Broncos. He'll likely retain a secondary role in the Denver offense in Week 18 against the Chargers.

Harvey rushed the ball 14 times for 43 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs. He added five receptions (on six targets) for 33 yards and a touchdown.

Harvey regained a larger split of work out of Denver's backfield, out-touching Jaleel McLaughlin, 19-7. However, the good news mostly ended there, as five of Harvey's 14 carries went for two or fewer yards. He did manage to perform better as a pass catcher, picking up 13 yards on a dump off midway through the third quarter before also catching the game-winning touchdown from one yard away late in the final quarter. Harvey has been inefficient as a runner for most of the season, but he has scored in five straight games and seven of his last nine contests to give him consistent fantasy value.

Hunt rushed seven times for 38 yards in the Chiefs' 20-13 loss to the Broncos on Thursday.

Hunt logged two fewer carries than backfield mate Isiah Pacheco but outgained him by six yards, while neither back had any involvement in the passing game. Hunt saw a significant resurgence from a forgettable Week 16 showing against the Titans, when he'd netted only two rushing yards on three carries. Hunt will look close out the campaign on a positive note and eclipse 40 rushing yards for the first time since Week 13 when the Chiefs visit the Raiders in Week 18.

Pacheco rushed nine times for 32 yards and wasn't targeted in the Chiefs' 20-13 loss to the Broncos on Thursday night.

Pacheco saw two more carries than backfield mate Kareem Hunt but gained six fewer yards. The fourth-year back was stymied more frequently than even his 3.6 yards per carry suggests, as outside of a 13-yard game-long run, Pacheco netted just 19 yards on his other eight rush attempts. The Rutgers product will be looking to snap an unfavorable streak in the Week 18 road matchup against the Raiders to close out the season, one that's seen Pacheco fail to clear 40 rushing yards in five consecutive games.

Montgomery (illness) rushed 10 times for 25 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Thursday's 23-10 loss to the Vikings.

Montgomery didn't seem bothered by the illness that had his status in question for Thursday's game, as he notched double-digit rushing attempts for the first time since Week 10. Detroit's offense was stuck in first gear all game, as the Lions committed six turnovers and were eliminated from playoff contention with the loss. The veteran running back will continue to share the backfield with Jahmyr Gibbs in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Bears, though neither one has run particularly well of late with Detroit's formerly dominant offensive line regressing.
