  • Jaylen Warren RB | PIT

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Produces 63 yards off 11 touches

    Warren rushed nine times for 46 yards and caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

    Warren continues to be one of the more effective backups in the league with another solid showing off of double-digit touches. The 25-year-old's production has taken off in recent weeks after quarterback Russell Wilson took over the offense Week 7. Najee Harris is still the bell cow of this offense, but Warren has shown that he can be effective in a limited role for those in deeper fantasy formats.

  • Giants' Devin Singletary: Minimal role again Monday

    Singletary rushed twice for 11 yards and secured two of three targets for 12 yards in the Giants' 26-18 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.

    As his scant workload indicates, Singletary took a clear back seat to rookie Tyrone Tracy (head), who excelled with 145 rushing yards and a touchdown on 20 carries despite exiting the game twice with injuries. Singletary saw only five carries in his Week 7 return from a groin injury after Tracy impressed during the former's two-game absence, and unless the head injury that forced Tracy's second and final exit from the game Monday lingers into Week 9, the minimal role for the veteran back should continue against the Commanders in Sunday's divisional battle.

  • Najee Harris RB | NYG

    Steelers' Najee Harris: Stays hot on MNF

    Harris carried the ball 19 times for 114 yards while catching three of four targets for 17 yards in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

    Harris shined in the national spotlight for the second consecutive week after churning out another 100-plus yard rushing performance against a New York squad. The addition of quarterback Russell Wilson has helped add the threat of the deep ball to Pittsburgh's offense, lightening opposing defensive boxes for the 6-foot-1, 242-pound Harris. The bruising back took full advantage of that against the Giants and may continue to do so in the second half of the fantasy season. For now, the Steelers enter a bye week, so fantasy managers will have to find a substitute for Harris in Week 9, before reactivating the back for a Week 10 matchup against Washington.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Exits to locker room

    Tracy exited Monday's matchup with the Steelers late in the fourth quarter after suffering an apparent head injury, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Tracy likely went to the medical tent to be checked for a concussion after hitting his helmet on the field. He subsequently left for the locker room. The injury comes on a big night in which he assumed RB1 duties for the Giants ahead of Devin Singletary. Tracy accumulated 145 rushing yards and one touchdown on 20 carries before exiting. He also injured his shoulder at the end of the first half but ultimately returned to start the third quarter.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Returns Monday

    Tracy (shoulder) returned to start the second half in Monday's matchup with the Steelers, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Tracy was shaken up towards the end of the first half and subsequently drew a questionable designation at halftime. However, he has gotten the green light to start the third quarter. The running back had seemingly take RB1 duties from Devin Singletary in the first half, recording nine carries to Singletary's one.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Questionable to return

    Tracy is considered questionable to return to Monday's matchup with the Steelers due to a shoulder injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Tracy had nine carries for 35 yards compared to Devin Singletary's one rush for seven yards prior to exiting. However, Tracy was shaken up late in the first half. Singletary would presumably take on RB1 responsibilities should Tracy be unable to return.

  • Seahawks' Zach Charbonnet: Scores in blowout loss

    Charbonnet rushed three times for four yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Bills. He also caught three of four targets for 20 yards.

    Charbonnet handled 22 offensive snaps compared to Kenneth Walker's 25 snaps, which translated to 45 yards on 13 touches. It's encouraging that Charbonnet received a goal-line touch, but it's worth noting the Seahawks were trailing 31-3 at the time. Charbonnet has been quite inefficient this year with 3.5 yards per carry, and he'll continue to have limited upside as long as Walker is healthy.

  • Joshua Kelley RB | TEN

    Joshua Kelley: Reverts to practice squad

    Kelley reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday.

    Kelley was active for Sunday's loss to the Lions with Tyjae Spears (hamstring) out but didn't see any playing time. Kelley could be elevated again Week 9 versus the Patriots if Spears remains sidelined.

  • Jake Funk RB | JAC

    Jake Funk: Returns to practice squad

    Funk reverted to the Jaguars' practice squad Monday.

    Funk was active but did not play in the team's 30-27 loss to the Packers in Week 8. He operated as a depth option behind Tank Bigsby and D'Ernest Johnson at running back against Green Bay and could do so again Sunday in Philadelphia if Travis Etienne (hamstring) remains unavailable.

  • Will Shipley RB | PHI

    Eagles' Will Shipley: Rushes twice in garbage time

    Shipley carried the ball twice for minus-3 yards in Sunday's 37-17 win over the Bengals.

    Shipley got the ball on both of his offensive snaps, both of which came on the Eagles' final drive with the team already up three scores. On the first play, he thought he had reached the end zone for his first career touchdown, only to have the run brought back by an offensive hold. His season totals now sit at 10 carries for 12 yards, all of which have come in garbage time over the last two weeks.
