Henderson (ankle) is not expected to practice Tuesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

It was revealed earlier Tuesday that an ankle injury forced Henderson from Monday's practice session, and it appears he will not get any work in a day later. Henderson is reportedly moving fine, but Patriots Executive Vice President Eliot Wolf indicated the team is still "working through the situation," so his status remains a bit up in the air at the moment.

Davis (knee) worked out on a side field with a trainer during Tuesday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Davis has missed the Jets' first two preseason contests due to a knee injury he suffered in early August. Tuesday's development marks his first notable on-field work since then, but it remains to be seen if he'll be healthy enough to suit up for Friday's exhibition against the Giants. With No. 1 RB Breece Hall (groin) also working on the side as of Monday, New York's backfield is getting healthier as Week 1 approaches, but at the moment Braelon Allen is the top healthy back on the roster.

Harris is listed as the Giants' co-No. 2 RB along with Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary, behind Cam Skattebo on the team's unofficial depth chart.

Harris has been with the organization for only one week, but the torn Achilles he suffered in Week 3 of last season hasn't stopped him from practicing since joining New York. The Giants likely will want to see all three of Tracy, Harris and Singletary in their final preseason game Friday against the Jets if possible to solidify the order behind Skattebo, and determine who among them may be a candidate to get cut.

Walker is not expected to practice Tuesday due to a foot injury, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Walker has avoided the injury bug since joining the Chiefs over the offseason, but he has picked up a foot issue with just a few weeks to go before the regular season. The extent of the injury is not yet known, but his status will be updated again when more details are released. Emari Demercado and Emmett Johnson are in line for added work should Walker miss any further time.

Skattebo is listed as the Giants' starting running back on the team's unofficial depth chart for the preseason finale versus the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Skattebo seems to have pulled ahead from the pack as the Giants get their plans in place for the final preseason game. The Giants had previously listed Skattebo as the co-starter with Tyrone Tracy earlier in camp. However, now Skattebo sits unchallenged atop the unofficial depth chart while Tracy, Najee Harris and Devin Singletary are on the next line.

Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel said Monday that there had been "a mild setback" with Mitchell with an undisclosed issue.

McDaniel did not indicate what Mitchell has experienced a setback from, as no injury to the running back has been reported this offseason. "I think the running back position is, we sustained a mild setback with Keaton, but realistically, that's a position that you're always wanting to have three, and I like what our young guys are doing to press into that group," McDaniel said regarding the Chargers' backfield depth. Mitchell could be held out of the team's preseason finale Thursday against the Rams, but as yet there's no suggestion he could sit out Week 1 against the Cardinals.

Giddens (hamstring) will practice this week, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

Giddens had been hampered by a hamstring issue for a good chunk of the preseason. He did not play in Indianapolis' most recent preseason game, either. Coach Shane Steichen provided an update on him Tuesday, indicating that Giddens will be back in the mix at practice as the team prepares to wrap up preseason. Still, time is running out for Giddens to establish himself on the depth chart behind Jonathan Taylor.

Henderson has been diagnosed with a lower right ankle injury and will undergo further "precautionary" tests, Christopher Price of the Boston Globe reports.

Henderson is "walking and moving fine," according to Price, after the second-year running back was dinged up in Monday's practice when he slipped on the turf. Henderson was already expected to rest for the preseason finale. He may not practice the remainder of the week, but it sounds like Henderson has a good chance of suiting up for the Patriots' regular-season opener against Seahawks on Wednesday, Sept. 9.

Johnson (lower leg) didn't practice Tuesday, but head coach Joe Brady said that the running back has resumed sprinting, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

Though Johnson hasn't practiced in more than two weeks while nursing a lower-leg injury and looks unlikely to play in Thursday's preseason finale versus the Steelers, Brady noted that the running back is "in a good head space" and could still be available for Week 1 in Houston. If Johnson ends up being sidelined to begin the regular season, however, lead back James Cook could take on a heightened role on passing downs.

The Raiders are optimistic that the injury Jeanty sustained during practice Sunday is a "more low than high" ankle sprain and not a long-term concern, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

While the Raiders are fully confident that Jeanty avoided a significant injury, the second-year running back is still in danger of missing the team's Week 1 game against the Dolphins. Jeanty will at the very least sit out Thursday's preseason finale versus the 49ers, but he'll have two weeks to recover before the regular season kicks off. Rookie Mike Washington would be in line to serve as the Raiders' lead back if Jeanty ends up missing time.
