Taylor rushed 12 times for 103 yards and brought in two of four targets for 32 yards in the Colts' 16-10 loss to the Packers on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Indianapolis.

Taylor looked like himself on his modest amount of opportunities, averaging 8.6 yards per carry with a long run of 29 yards. He also finished with the Colts' second-highest receiving yardage total after being shut out altogether through the air in the Week 1 loss to the Texans. Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star confirms that the talented running back did not have any injury concerns early in the fourth quarter when he was substituted for Trey Sermon on a key drive, and Taylor's otherwise strong performance was only missing a bit more volume and a touchdown. He'll aim to rectify both matters when he tangles with the Bears defense at home in Week 3.

Jacobs rushed 32 times for 151 yards in the Packers' 16-10 win over the Colts on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

The offseason acquisition took on a signature workhorse role in the victory, shouldering a massive amount of volume in the absence of Jordan Love (knee). Jacobs' ability to consistently rip off productive gains -- his longest run was a relatively modest 34 yards -- helped protect Malik Willis in his first Packers start, and Green Bay's defense did its part to keep the game script favorable for the ground attack with three interceptions and a sack of Anthony Richardson. Jacobs' lack of a pass-game role Sunday was about the only blemish on his otherwise fantasy-friendly afternoon, and he'll aim to extend the hot start to his team tenure against the Titans on the road in Week 3.

Dobbins rushed 17 times for 131 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for no gain in the Chargers' 26-3 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Any thoughts of Dobbins' spectacular Week 1 performance against the Raiders, which was fueled by 46- and 61-yard runs, having been an outlier were dispelled by the explosive back Sunday, with the 2020 second-round pick putting together a similarly impressive effort that included another 40-plus yard run. Dobbins' game-long scamper of 43 yards, which resulted in a touchdown just before the two-minute warning in the first half, served as the highlight of his day, but he consistently gained solid yardage while recording 88 yards on his other 16 totes. Dobbins was actually outpaced by one-time Ravens backfield mate Gus Edwards by one carry, but it's clear through two weeks there's plenty of room for two backs to be productive in head coach Jim Harbaugh's run-centered attack. Dobbins will look for a third consecutive 100-yard game when Los Angeles faces off with the Steelers on the road in Week 3.

Lloyd sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's contest against the Colts.

Lloyd limped off the field after rushing for no gain in the waning minutes of the Packers' Week 2 matchup. At the time of his exit, he totaled six carries for 15 yards and reeled in his only target for three yards.

Spears exited Sunday's game against the Jets with an ankle injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Prior to being forced out of the contest, Spears carried six times for 20 yards and caught two of his three targets for 11 yards. In his absence, Julius Chestnut is available to handle snaps behind Tony Pollard.

Strong has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jaguars due to a hamstring injury, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Strong returned one kickoff for 25 yards and rushed for minus-five yards on one carry before leaving Sunday's contest. D'Onta Foreman will be the primary backup at running back behind Jerome Ford for the rest of the game.

Schrader (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Arizona, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Schrader will be a healthy inactive for a second straight week as the Rams roll with Kyren Williams, Blake Corum and Ronnie Rivers as the three running backs for Sunday's game. Schrader's next chance to suit up will come Week 3 against the 49ers on Sept. 22.

Bigsby was forced out of Sunday's game against the Browns with a shoulder injury.

Prior to his exit from the contest, Bigsby hadn't recorded a carry. In his absence, Travis Etienne and D'Ernest Johnson are available to handle the Jaguars' RB duties.

White has returned to Sunday's game against the Lions after exiting the contest with a groin injury.

Evidently the issue was minor, with White back in the game to continue to lead the Bucs' Week 2 backfield. Bucky Irvingand Sean Tucker remain on hand to work in complementary roles behind White.

White departed Sunday's game in Detroit due to a groin injury, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Prior to the announcement of this injury in the first quarter, White was spotted limping on the sideline and had three carries for 12 yards. If White is unable to reenter the contest, Bucky Irving is poised to lead Tampa Bay's backfield.
