Gray played one of the Giants' 56 snaps on offense in Monday's 24-22 win over the Packers.

Since being reinstated from injured reserve Nov. 25 after missing four games with a calf issue, Gray has suited up for the Giants' subsequent two contests, but he's logged just three snaps on offense. He'll likely struggle to find playing time at running back while both Saquon Barkley and Matt Breida are healthy.

Jacobs (quadricep) was listed as a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through session.

The Raiders conducted walk-through sessions Monday and Tuesday to begin Week 15 prep, but Jacobs would have had his reps managed had the team held traditional practices. Jacobs exited this past Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings in the fourth quarter with what was at the time deemed a knee injury and finished the day with 13 carries for 34 yards and two receptions for 16 yards.

Patterson rushed three times for seven yards in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers.

Patterson played just 12 of the Falcons' 72 offensive snaps Sunday while continuing his role as Atlanta's No. 3 running back. The veteran's three rushing attempts were his fewest since Week 10 as he sees the field in relief of both Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. Barring injuries to Robinson and Allgeier, Patterson's fantasy utility is extremely limited. The 32-year-old should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Falcons visit the Panthers in Week 15.

Johnson rushed five times for 19 yards and caught both of his targets for two yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Chiefs.

Johnson played 15 of the Bills' 77 offensive snaps Sunday, his most in seven games this season. The veteran's seven touches in the contest were also a season high. With that said, Johnson is not seeing enough consistent usage to produce for fantasy purposes. The 26-year-old should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Bills host the Cowboys in Week 15.

Jacobs (quadriceps) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

The Raiders conducted walk-through sessions Monday and Tuesday to begin Week 15 prep, but Jacobs would have had his reps managed had the team held traditional practices. Jacobs exited this past Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings in the fourth quarter with what was at the time deemed a knee injury and finished the day with 13 carries for 34 yards and two receptions for 16 yards.

Murray gained nine yards on three carries and caught his lone target for 21 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Chiefs.

Murray continued his role as the Bills' No. 2 running back behind James Cook, playing 32 percent of Buffalo's offensive snaps Sunday. While Cook played the most snaps (34) of any running back and handled the most touches (15), Murray was used sparingly in relief of his teammate. The 33-year-old's limited opportunities put a cap on his ability to produce consistently in Buffalo's offense. Murray will be an untrustworthy option for fantasy purposes when Bills host the Cowboys in Week 15.

Mattison (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.

Mattison racked up 66 yards on 10 carries in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Raiders before exiting with a right low-ankle sprain. His estimated non-participation on Tuesday's report isn't a great sign for his early prospects of playing Saturday against the Bengals. Ty Chandler would be in line to handle the lead role in the Minnesota backfield if Mattison is unable to play this weekend.

Harris (knee) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Harris was listed as questionable ahead of last Thursday's game against the Patriots after he was unable to practice in any fashion leading up to the contest while he managed a knee issue. He was ultimately cleared to play and accounted for 48 yards from scrimmage on 15 touches (12 carries, three receptions) in the Steelers' 21-18 loss. Even with the benefit of a longer turnaround for this Saturday's game in Indianapolis, Harris was a spectator for the Steelers' first practice this week, though it's possible he was just receiving an extra maintenance day.

Taylor (thumb) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.

Per Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis, head coach Shane Steichen spoke to the media earlier Tuesday and didn't definitively rule Taylor out from returning in Week 15 against the Steelers, though the expectation remains that the running back will miss his third straight contest. Taylor's continued absence from practice supports the notion that he won't be available to play this Saturday, setting Zack Moss up for another turn as the Colts' lead back.

Spiller recorded six carries for 19 yards in Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos.

Spiller had a season high in rushing yards and attempts, and out-snapped second-string running back Joshua Kelley by five. Considering the 22-year-old has only played in six games to date, it's unclear if the additional workload will be permanent moving forward, or just a one-week oddity. With Justin Herbert (finger) done for the season, the Chargers could experiment with the backfield in a variety of ways, but it seems unlikely Spiller will outright displace starting running back Austin Ekeler in the coming weeks.
