  • Bucky Irving RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Eclipses 70-yard mark in loss

    Irving rushed 19 times for 71 yards and wasn't targeted in the Buccaneers' 23-20 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

    Irving easily led the Buccaneers' ground attack in rush attempts and rushing yardage, but he had a long run of just 12 yards and didn't draw a single target for the first time all season. While Irving's rushing yardage tally did match his season high, he also saw Sean Tucker vulture another goal-line opportunity that the latter successfully converted into a touchdown. Irving will aim to exploit a vulnerable Dolphins run defense in a Week 17 road matchup next Sunday.

  • Breece Hall RB | NYJ

    Jets' Breece Hall: Gets 18 touches in Week 16

    Hall rushed 16 times for 54 yards and caught two of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 29-6 loss to the Saints.

    Hall has notched at least 14 rushing attempts in 10 of the last 12 games as the most consistent option in the Jets' lackluster offense. He needs 46 rushing yards over the final two games of the regular season to reach 1,000 for the first time in his four-year NFL career. Hall will try to hit that benchmark in Week 17 against the Patriots.

  • De'Von Achane RB | MIA

    Dolphins' De'Von Achane: Long rushing TD in loss

    Achane rushed 15 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for nine yards in the Dolphins' 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

    The highlight of Achane's afternoon came on his 48-yard scoring scamper late in the first quarter, which served as his third-longest run of the season. Achane's touchdown was his eighth on the ground in 2025, with five of those coming within the last six contests. Achane also now has multiple catches in consecutive contests heading into a Week 17 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

  • Chase Brown RB | CIN

    Bengals' Chase Brown: Finds paydirt three times in Miami

    Brown carried the ball 12 times for 66 yards and a touchdown and caught all four of his targets for 43 yards and two more scores in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins.

    All three of Brown's trips to the end zone came in the third quarter, making him the first player in the NFL this season with three TDs in the same period. It was the third time in 2025 that the third-year back has scored multiple touchdowns, but he's got only eight TDs in total (four rushing, four receiving) through 15 contests. Brown lines up for another juicy matchup in Week 17 against the Cardinals.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Tops 70 rushing yards in Week 16

    Tracy rushed 16 times for 71 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Vikings.

    Tracy reached the 70-yard threshold on the ground for the fourth time in six games. He had 16 carries to Devin Singletary's 11 while Jaxson Dart completed only seven passes and had just two carries in a quiet game for the rookie quarterback. Tracy's poised to maintain the lead-back role in the Giants' run-heavy offense in a Week 17 road game against the Raiders.

  • Josh Jacobs RB | GB

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Takes backseat to Wilson

    Coach Matt LaFleur said Sunday that Jacobs' (knee/ankle) lack of usage after his fumble in the third quarter during Saturday's defeat at Chicago wasn't a punishment but instead mostly was due to how well No. 2 RB Emanuel Wilson was running, Zach Jacobson of 247Sports.com reports. Jacobs also didn't injure his knee further in the contest.

    Jacobs logged only two offensive snaps after the aforementioned play, finishing with 14 touches for 48 yards from scrimmage. Meanwhile, Emanuel Wilson reeled off 82 yards on 14 carries. LaFleur's comments indicate Jacobs isn't any worse after the game than he was beforehand, but he also may be destined to show up on the Packers' Week 17 injury report, the first version of which will be posted Tuesday. In the end, the biggest question mark as the team prepares for next Saturday's contest against the Ravens is who will be under center, as No. 1 QB Jordan Love is in the concussion protocol, and Malik Willis is dealing with a right shoulder injury following Saturday's outing.

  • Browns' Trayveon Williams: Expanded role due to Judkins injury

    Williams rushed three times for 17 yards and brought in all four targets for 38 yards in the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    After Quinshon Judkins exited the game in the second quarter with what was eventually diagnosed as a broken fibula and dislocated ankle, per Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, Williams and Raheim Sanders both saw expanded roles. Williams operated in a change-of-pace and pass-catching role, actually pacing the Browns in receiving yards on the afternoon. Williams projects for additional opportunity over the final two games of the season due to Judkins' absence, but Dylan Sampson (calf/hand) could potentially join the backfield mix in a Week 17 home matchup against the Steelers after missing the last two games.

  • Raheim Sanders RB | CLE

    Browns' Raheim Sanders: Records 12 touches in loss

    Sanders rushed 11 times for 42 yards and brought in his only target for four yards in the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    Quinshon Judkins exited the game in the second quarter with what was eventually diagnosed as a broken fibula and dislocated ankle, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, and Sanders finished as the team leader in rush attempts. Backfield mate Trayveon Williams operated more as a change-of-pace option, and although Judkins will naturally miss the final two games of the season, Sanders and Williams could be joined by Dylan Sampson, who logged a second straight absence due to calf and hand injuries, for a Week 17 home matchup against the Steelers next Sunday, which would muddy the outlook for all three backs to a degree.

  • Aaron Jones RB | MIN

    Vikings' Aaron Jones: Season-high 21 carries in win

    Jones (ankle) rushed 21 times for 85 yards and caught two of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Giants.

    Jones injured his ankle in the first quarter but came back into the game after fellow running back Jordan Mason (ankle) exited the game entirely. If Jones plays Thursday against the Lions, he could be in for another hefty workload for a Vikings offense that may be without starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy (hand), who also left in the first half. Third-string running back Zavier Scott finished with 12 yards on three touches while Jones set season highs with 23 touches and 85 rushing yards. Jones has frequently dealt with in-game injuries this season, but he's handled double-digit touches in each of his last eight outings and reached 65 scrimmage yards in three consecutive games.

  • Browns' Quinshon Judkins: Coach cites significant injury

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said that Judkins dislocated his ankle and fractured his fibula in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Per Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Judkins is in line to undergo surgery, while the running back is presumably slated to land on IR in the coming days. With his 2025 season over, Judkins will have the offseason to focus on his injury recovery, with a timetable on that front likely to emerge following his upcoming procedure. As for the Browns' backfield plans for the team's final two contests, Dylan Sampson (hand) would be next in line for carries next weekend against the Steelers if he's available after being inactive Sunday, with Trayveon Williams and Raheim Sanders also in the mix to see added work down the stretch. Additionally, Ahmani Marshall is a member of Cleveland's practice squad.
