Dallas didn't record an offensive snap in Monday's 20-17 win over the Eagles. He returned one punt for seven yards.

Dallas was left out of the offensive rotation for the fourth time this season, as Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet handled all the reps in Week 15. The fourth-year running back continues to be useful as a returner, but he's off fantasy radars until further notice.

Charbonnet rushed four times for 16 yards in Monday's 20-17 win over the Eagles.

Charbonnet handled 46 percent of the offensive snaps, but his usage shrank behind a healthy Kenneth Walker, who turned 22 touches into 112 yards and a touchdown. This isn't a new pattern, as Charbonnet has played more than 50 percent of the snaps while recording 10 or fewer touches on three occasions this season. Until his usage picks up, it will be hard to trust the rookie RB, especially in a daunting Week 16 matchup against Tennessee's run defense.

Vaughn signed with New England's practice squad Tuesday.

Vaughn will officially head to New England after being waived from Tampa Bay last week. The 2020 third-round pick carried the ball 24 times for 42 yards in six games this season and could serve as a depth option if Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) continues to miss time.

The Patriots signed Harris to their active roster from their practice squad Tuesday.

Harris will join New England's active roster after spending the entire season on its practice squad. In his only appearance this season, the 23-year-old carried the ball four times for 25 yards and a touchdown during last week's loss to the Chiefs, and he could continue to serve as the primary backup to Ezekiel Elliott if Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) misses more time.

Scott played one snap on offense and 14 on special teams in Monday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks.

Scott went without a touch on offense and returned a lone kickoff for 13 yards. He's now gone without a carry or catch on four occasions this season and hasn't played more than 10 snaps on offense in any of his 12 appearances.

Gainwell rushed six times for 21 yards in Monday's loss to the Seahawks.

Gainwell's six carries marked his highest total since Week 7, but he also went without a reception for the second week in a row. He remains the clear second running back behind D'Andre Swift, and neither his average of 29.7 yards from scrimmage per game nor his two total touchdowns on the season are particularly useful for fantasy purposes.

Miller (ankle) was estimated as a limited participant at the Saints' walkthrough practice Tuesday.

Miller was listed as a nonparticipant Monday, so Tuesday's listing signals movement in the right direction. He'll still probably need to manage a full practice Wednesday to avoid carrying an injury designation into Thursday.

The Ravens signed Gordon from their practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.

Rookie halfback Keaton Mitchell went down with a torn ACL on Sunday, and Baltimore promptly promoted Gordon to reinforce the position. In two games with the Ravens earlier this season, Gordon took 13 carries for 53 yards, adding three catches for 46 yards on three targets.

Brooks (ankle/knee) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday.

Brooks hasn't played since Week 6 against the Panthers when he suffered an ankle sprain that led to his stint on IR. The return of the BYU product will bolster the depth of the Dolphins' backfield, where he'll slot in behind Raheem Mostert, De'Von Achane and likely Jeff Wilson.

Brown was limited at Tuesday's practice due to a sternum injury, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Brown entered Week 13 with five touches in the first six appearances of his career, but the rookie fifth-round pick has come on the last three games, combining for 30 touches for 217 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD. Assuming he gets through Week 16 prep and is able to play Saturday in Pittsburgh, he'll be a decent enough option for managers in need of RB depth.
