Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (calf) had eight carries for 66 yards and caught one of his two targets for an additional four yards through the air against the Cleveland Browns in Week 8.

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce couldn't get much going on the ground in the team's 15-13 loss against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8.

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert cashed in his tenth rushing touchdown of the season and his 12th overall.

Despite Jeff Wilson Jr. seeing a bit […]

Joe Mixon Scores A Touchdown In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon had arguably his best outing of the year in Sunday's win over the San Francisco 49ers. The former Sooner had a season-high 87 yards off 16 carries.

New York Giants running back Matt Breida rushed the ball five times for 13 yards and added one catch for four yards in the team's 13-10 overtime loss to the New York Jets.

Breece Hall Excels As Receiver In Week 8 Win

New York Jets running back Breece Hall managed just 17 yards on 12 carries but secured six of his nine targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in a Week 8 win over the New York Giants. Although Hall was unable to find much success on the ground, he was a reliable option for quarterback […]

Jaylen Warren Quiet Against Jaguars

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren managed 19 rushing yards on five carries and 19 receiving yards on four receptions in a Week 8 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon took six carries for 11 yards and caught all five of his targets for 41 yards during the team's 10-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

Royce Freeman Scores In Loss

Los Angeles Rams running back Royce Freeman led the team in rushing during their Week 8 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The 27-year-old rushed the ball nine times for an efficient 44 yards on the ground, as well as the team's only rushing touchdown. However, he did not draw a single target for the second […]

Aaron Jones Disappoints Again In Week 8

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones took seven carries for 29 yards and caught four of five passes for 17 additional yards during the team's 10-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran has failed to put together a single double-digit fantasy performance since going down with a hamstring injury in Week 1 and […]

Damien Williams Questionable To Return Against Baltimore

Arizona Cardinals running back Damien Williams (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens. The 31-year-old would finish with just five yards off two carries and four yards off one catch if he doesn't return. But with Emari Demercado the primary rusher out of the backfield, Williams' status for the remainder of […]
