Moss rushed the ball 15 times for 51 yards in Sunday's 34-24 win over the Panthers. He added four catches on four targets for 27 yards and a touchdown.

The Bengals came out very aggressive through the air, which limited Moss to only four carries for eight yards through two quarters. While that mark doubled up Chase Brown, the duo's usage near the goal line was interesting, as Brown relieved Moss at the goal line for the team's first touchdown of the day. Just before halftime, Moss was then used at the goal line and caught a one-yard touchdown. With a lead in the second half, the Bengals used their backs evenly -- a departure from the usage that favored Moss through the first three weeks of the season. While that may be a concerning sign for him as the season progresses, Moss has three total touchdowns on the season and has topped 60 yards from scrimmage in three of four contests.

Bigsby carried the ball seven times for 90 yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Texans.

Travis Etienne missed most of the first quarter with a shoulder injury, but Bigsby's biggest gain came in the third as he rumbled for 58 yards on a drive that stalled on Houston's goal line. Etienne didn't play poorly when he was on the field, turning 12 touches into 60 scrimmage yards, but Bigsby's performance could encourage the winless Jaguars to shake things up and go with more of a backfield timeshare in Week 5 against the Colts. The second-year back's touch volume could ultimately depend on Etienne's health, however.

Badie (back) left Sunday's 10-9 win over the Jets on a stretcher but is doing okay, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports.

Badie was injured on a big hit by Jets linebacker Quincy Williams, which also dislodged the ball for a fumble. The running back stayed with his teammates on the sideline for a while but eventually needed a stretcher to get off the field. Subsequent test results on his back have been encouraging, but it's too early to determine a return timeline for Badie.

Etienne (shoulder) carried the ball 11 times for 50 yards and caught one of two targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Texans.

The running back missed most of the first quarter with a shoulder issue, and while he was able to return to the contest, Etienne was overshadowed in the Jaguars' backfield by Tank Bigsby, who amassed 90 rushing yards on only seven carries. It's also the first time Etienne has failed to catch multiple passes in a regular-season game since Week 14 of the 2022 season. Bigsby's performance, and Jacksonville's winless record, could prompt the team to shake things up with a backfield timeshare in Week 5 against the Colts. However, if he's healthy, Etienne still figures to be the Jaguars' top option on the ground.

Harris carried the ball 13 times for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Colts. He added three receptions on six targets for 54 yards.

Harris led the Pittsburgh backfield, though it wasn't the volume projected due to Jaylen Warren (knee) being sidelined. Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) was more effective before exiting the game and stole six carries, while Justin Fields also used his legs more. Even with the ball in his hands, Harris was largely stymied, as his longest run went for just five yards. However, Harris did produce as a receiver, highlighted by a 32-yard catch and run early in the fourth quarter as the Steelers attempted to rally. Overall, his disappointing start to the season continued, as Harris has yet to top 100 yards from scrimmage or find the end zone through four games.

Jones rushed 22 times for 93 yards and secured four of five targets for 46 yards in the Vikings' 31-29 win over the Packers on Sunday.

While Jones didn't get his highly coveted opportunity to reprise a Lambeau Leap as a member of the opposition, the long-time Packer played a key role in keeping the Vikings' record unblemished. Head coach Kevin O'Connell afforded Jones no shortage of opportunity in his return to Green Bay, with the veteran back logging a season high in rush attempts. Jones' start to his Minnesota tenure has been noteworthy, as he's produced at least 93 rushing yards and four receptions in three of the first four games. He still is looking for his first rushing TD since Week 1, however, a matter he'll look to address across the pond in a Week 5 matchup against the Jets in London.

Jacobs rushed nine times for 51 yards and brought in four of six targets for 27 yards in the Packers' 31-29 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Jacobs averaged an efficient 5.7 yards per carry, and he complemented the rushing performance with a season high in receptions and receiving yards. His rushing opportunities were curtailed overall due to a game script that saw the Packers fall behind by a large margin over the first two quarters-plus, but he still managed to cobble together a reasonably productive performance relative to opportunity. Jacobs next takes aim at the Rams' inconsistent defense in a Week 5 road matchup.

White rushed 10 times for 49 yards and brought in two of three targets for 35 yards in the Buccaneers' 33-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

White enjoyed his most efficient rushing day of the season by far, matching Bucky Irving in both carries and rushing yards on the afternoon. White also was the most productive of the two via the air, and his yardage total in that department was his second highest through four games. Given Irving has outpaced White in carries by a 19-16 margin over the last two games, it remains to be seen who might be the leader of the ground attack in a Week 5 road matchup against the Falcons on Thursday night.

Irving rushed 10 times for 49 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for six yards in the Buccaneers' 33-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

Irving and backfield mate Rachaad White curiously finished with an identical rushing line, with the key exception that Irving was the only one of the two to find the end zone. The rookie recorded his first NFL touchdown on a one-yard scoring run just past the midway point of the third quarter, and he continued to display a welcome knack for efficiency. Sunday's rushing workload marked a new high for Irving as well, and it will be interesting to see how the ground-game hierarchy shakes out in a Week 5 road battle against the Falcons on Thursday night.

Sanders rushed six times for 32 yards during Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Bengals. He added three receptions on four targets for 14 yards.

Sanders logged his highest total yardage of the season in Week 4, but he remains in Chuba Hubbard's shadow, as the latter posted his second consecutive 100-plus-yard rushing performance and has now logged 290 total yards across his last two games. While Sanders is currently Carolina's No. 2 running back, he could be further demoted once Jonathon Brooks (knee) returns from injury in the coming weeks.
