Edmonds rushed three times for 16 yards and brought in five of six targets for 40 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-13 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

One week after recording a season-high 10 carries, Edmonds produced new 2023 high-water marks in receptions, receiving yards and targets. Game script helped lead to Edmonds' expanded opportunity, however, and it's possible the same scenario isn't replicated Week 18 against the lowly Panthers in what is a must-win game for the Buccaneers.

Mattison had three carries for 17 yards and two receptions for 13 yards on two targets in Sunday's loss to Green Bay.

Mattison again took a back seat to starter Ty Chandler as he played on 21 of the offense's 53 snaps. Chandler played on 30 snaps. Mattison looks set to work behind Chandler again for the regular season finale Sunday at Detroit.

Penny did not see the field in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.

The Eagles had four active running backs in Sunday's game, but neither Penny nor Boston Scott received a single offensive snap. Penny has appeared in only two games all season, carrying the ball five times for 17 yards.

Scott didn't play a single offensive snap in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Cardinals.

Scott hasn't been a significant part of the Eagles' offensive game plan at any point this season, but he's typically at least been on the field from time to time. Week 17's loss marked the fourth time this season that Scott's only snaps came on special teams.

Goodson had one carry for three yards in Sunday's win over the Raiders.

Goodson payed just three snaps on offense as the Colts had a large lead most of the game and didn't need a pass catcher to relieve Jonathan Taylor. Instead, Trey Sermon played 18 snaps and had five carries for 32 yards mostly late in the game when Taylor was briefly sidelined.

Sermon had five carries for 32 yards and two receptions for nine yards on two targets in Sunday's win over the Raiders.

Sermon played 18 snaps on offense as he got playing time late in the game when Jonathan Taylor was briefly banged up. Sermon looks set to be the primary ball carrier behind Taylor with Zack Moss (forearm) out, while Tyler Goodson works in a pass-catching role among the backup running backs.

Johnson had three carries for zero yards and returned one kickoff for 22 yards during Sunday's 26-0 win against Carolina.

Jacksonville running backs received 29 carries in Sunday's blowout, with both Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby in double digits. Johnson played just 12 offensive snaps and may have dropped to No. 3 on the backfield depth chart.

Bigsby carried 10 times for 32 yards and wasn't targeted during Sunday's 26-0 win against the Panthers.

The rookie third-round pick entered the contest having played just six offensive snaps over the previous five games, but he tallied a career-high 10 carries as Jacksonville dominated Sunday from start to finish. Bigsby out-snapped D'Ernest Johnson, 17-12, and may have reclaimed the No. 2 job in the Jaguars backfield heading into Week 18.

The Chiefs reverted Ingram to the practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Ingram was called up as insurance for the Chiefs with Isiah Pacheco (concussion/shoulder) and Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) listed as questionable ahead of Week 17. Although Edwards-Helaire didn't end up playing, Pacheco was able to suit up and the team opted to keep Ingram on the sidelines with La'Mical Perine operating as the RB2.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that McCaffrey is dealing with a mild right calf strain and won't play Sunday against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

With the 49ers having clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC, the team has no reason to play McCaffrey in Week 18 at less than 100 percent health. The star running back thus will target a return to action in the divisional round of the playoffs following the 49ers' first-round bye. With McCaffrey not in line to face Los Angeles this weekend, Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason are available to handle the team's backfield duties, while Tyrion Davis-Price is a candidate to be promoted from San Francisco's practice squad.
