  • Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR

    Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Logs seven touches in win

    Hubbard rushed six times for 27 yards and brought in his only target for seven yards in the Panthers' 23-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Hubbard logged three fewer carries than Rico Dowdle but gained just two less rushing yards, although neither back made a significant impact fantasy-wise. Hubbard surprisingly broke out for an 83-yard showing on the ground against the Chargers three games ago, but otherwise, he's been capped overall by having to share time with Dowdle. The duo will likely continue working in a close timeshare during a Week 17 home matchup against a tough Seahawks defense.

  • Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Overcomes tough matchup against HOU

    Jeanty ran the ball 24 times for 128 yards and a touchdown while catching one of two targets for 60 yards and another score in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans.

    Jeanty was mired in a three-game slump in which he failed to top 35 rushing yards in each start, but he broke out in impressive fashion by scoring touchdowns as both a runner and receiver Sunday. The 21-year-old accomplished the feat against arguably the league's fiercest defense of 2025, helping push the Texans to the brink of a potential shocking upset. The outburst coincided with the return of starting QB Geno Smith (shoulder/back), but the rookie tailback had been struggling with the veteran signal-caller under center earlier in the schedule. Jeanty will attempt to sprint to the finish line of an inconsistent rookie campaign by taking advantage of a soft matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

  • Jaylen Wright RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Scores late TD in loss

    Wright rushed nine times for 35 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for 18 yards in the Dolphins' 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

    Wright saw complementary snaps behind De'Von Achane and recorded his second rushing touchdown of the season on a three-yard run with just under four minutes remaining. Despite the fact he tied his second-highest carry total of the season versus Cincinnati, Wright is likely to slot into a low-volume role in a Week 17 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday unless Achane is injured or there's another blowout scenario at play.

  • Bijan Robinson RB | ATL

    Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Posts WR1 numbers Sunday

    Robinson rushed 16 times for 76 yards while adding seven receptions on 11 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 win over Arizona.

    Robinson split backfield work nearly evenly with backup Tyler Allgeier (16-79-0) in Sunday's road win, but it was the former's work as a receiver that ultimately led to a standout fantasy performance. The 23-year-old Robinson has been generating WR1-type production over Atlanta's last two contests (15-174-1) while reaching double-digit targets in each game. The dual-threat superstar eclipsed the 2,000-yard mark in total yards from scrimmage with Sunday's balanced output. Robinson should continue playing a huge role in the Falcons' late-season boon on offense when the team hosts the Rams for Monday Night Football in Week 17.

  • Tyjae Spears RB | TEN

    Titans' Tyjae Spears: Huge day against KC

    Spears carried the ball 13 times for 52 yards and a touchdown and caught all five of his targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 26-9 win over Kansas City.

    Tony Pollard led the way in the Titans backfield with 21 carries and a third straight 100-yard game, but Spears made an impact as well as as he handled a season high in carries and touches while reaching 100 scrimmage yards for the first time in 2025 and scoring his first TD since Week 8. With the Titans' offense finally looking at least competent, Spears and Pollard could remain in something close to a timeshare over the final two weeks of the season, including for a Week 17 tilt against the Saints.

  • Tony Pollard RB | TEN

    Titans' Tony Pollard: Hits century mark in yardage Sunday

    Pollard carried the ball 21 times for 102 yards in Sunday's 26-9 win over Kansas City.

    The veteran back continues to roll, topping 100 rushing yards for a third straight game after going the first 12 games of the season without reaching triple digits. Pollard did cede more work to Tyjae Spears, however, as the younger RB saw a season-high 13 carries and 18 touches, turning them into 105 scrimmage yards of his own along with a rushing TD. With the Titans' offense finally looking at least competent, Pollard and Spears could remain in something close to a timeshare over the final two weeks of the season. Pollard is 51 rushing yards shy of his fourth straight 1,000-yard campaign, a milestone he'll look to reach in Week 17 against the Saints.

  • Rico Dowdle RB | CAR

    Panthers' Rico Dowdle: Over 40 scrimmage yards in win

    Dowdle rushed nine times for 29 yards and brought in four of six targets for 14 yards in the Panthers' 23-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Dowdle outpaced Chuba Hubbard by just three carries and two rushing yards, as both backs had a predictably difficult time versus the Buccaneers' typically stingy run defense. With Sunday's production, Dowdle did exceed 1,000 rushing yards for the second consecutive campaign, but he's been at 58 rushing yards or fewer in six consecutive games heading into a Week 17 home matchup against a tough Seahawks defense.

  • Isaiah Davis RB | NYJ

    Jets' Isaiah Davis: Turns seven touches into 60 yards

    Davis rushed three times for eight yards and caught all four of his targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 29-6 loss to the Saints.

    After finishing as the Jets' leading rusher in the Week 15 loss to Jacksonville, Davis led the team in receiving yards against the Saints. The backup running back has recorded some promising performances down the stretch, but Davis remains behind Breece Hall in the backfield pecking order heading into a Week 17 home game against the Patriots. Hall had 63 scrimmage yards on 18 touches in Sunday's loss.

  • Evan Hull RB | NO

    Saints' Evan Hull: Splits backup RB duties

    Hull had five rushes for three yards during Sunday's 29-6 victory versus the Jets.

    Hull split carries with fellow backup running back Audric Estime, who had five carries for 19 yards along with four receptions (on five targets). RB1 Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) and Devin Neal (hamstring) were both inactive, but Taysom Hill ultimately served as the team's leading rusher with 12 carries for 42 yards and four catches (on six targets). Hull will likely be limited going forward, even if Kamara and Neal remain sidelined Week 17 versus Tennessee.

  • Chiefs' Isiah Pacheco: Leads backfield in Week 16 loss

    Pacheco carried the ball eight times for 34 yards and caught six of seven targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 26-9 loss to the Titans.

    Kareem Hunt saw only three carries on the day, and one of them turned into a two-yard loss for a safety in the second quarter. As a result, Pacheco saw his biggest touch volume since Week 7 and put together season-high numbers as a receiver. The Kansas City offense is in shambles with Patrick Mahomes and Gardner Minshew going down with knee injuries in consecutive weeks, leaving Chris Oladokun as the likely starting QB for what's left of a lost season. With the team already eliminated from playoff contention, the veteran Hunt could be phased out of the offense, with Pacheco and even 2025 seventh-round pick Brashard Smith seeing more work over the final two weeks, including in a Week 17 battle against the Broncos.
