Chiefs | Clyde Edwards-Helaire activated Wed Oct 16, 07:36 AM
Kansas City Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) was activated from the Non-football illness list Tuesday, Oct. 15.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs now have a 21-day window for Edwards-Helaire to return. The Chiefs have Kareem Hunt as their lead back and Samaje Perine as their third-down back. That means Edwards-Helaire will be trying to earn a spot in the rotation behind them when he's ready to play. |

Cowboys | Rico Dowdle set to handle more work after bye Tue Oct 15, 02:33 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle 'definitely needs more touches,' according to comments made by head coach Mike McCarthy on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
| Footballguys view: Of course, that's already begun. As the Cowboys' 2024 campaign has rolled along, Ezekiel Elliott has been taking fewer snaps and getting fewer touches as Dowdle has emerged as the clear RB1 on the roster. As SBNation suggested, Dowdle seemed to seal the deal with a career night in a Week 5 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, rushing for a career-high 87 yards on 20 carries. But against the Lions, Elliott took the lead, and it didn't work out well. Sounds like we can expect the shift to Dowdle to continue when Dallas returns from their bye in Week 8. |

49ers | Jordan Mason dons no-contact jersey Tue Oct 15, 01:20 AM
San Francisco 49ers RB Jordan Mason (shoulder) was wearing a blue non-contact jersey in practice on Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: Mason suffered an AC joint sprain during last week's win over the Seahawks. His ability to hit the field for this session, even on a limited basis, is a positive sign for Mason's potential availability against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. |

Ravens | Keaton Mitchell remains on IR Mon Oct 14, 03:50 PM
Baltimore Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell (knee) is not ready to return to practice yet, but the team is optimistic he can be designated to return at some point, head coach John Harbaugh told reporters Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com's Jon Alfano noted, Mitchell, who joined the team as an undrafted free agent last year, didn't play until Week 6 but made the most of his opportunity once it came. In eight games, he rushed for 396 yards and two touchdowns while reeling off several big runs. Although Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson are home-run threats, Mitchell would add another one for defenses to note. Until then, the Ravens feel confident with Justice Hill as the No. 2 back. |

Panthers | Jonathon Brooks returning to practice Mon Oct 14, 02:40 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) is expected to have his 21-day practice window opened this week, head coach Dave Canales told reporters Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: "He's checked all the boxes in terms of his getting back to being able to practice, so we're hoping to open that window today," Canales said. Brooks tore his ACL while playing at Texas last season and the Panthers put the second-round pick on the non-football injury list at the start of training camp. According to Profootballtalk.com, Canales declined to speculate on what kind of role Brooks would be in line for and said the team would see how he does in practice before making any plans. Chuba Hubbard leads the team with 86 carries for 485 yards and two touchdowns. |
Saints | Kendre Miller could make season debut Mon Oct 14, 01:47 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Kendre Miller (hamstring) is expected to make his season debut, head coach Dennis Allen told reporters Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: Miller was activated off injured reserve Saturday but was a game-day inactive for Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. The 2023 third-round draft pick is expected to make his season debut Thursday, though official word on Miller's status won't come until later in the week. Once cleared to play, Miller will compete with Jamaal Williams for backup touches behind Alvin Kamara. |

Browns | Jerome Ford dealing with hamstring Mon Oct 14, 01:32 PM
Cleveland Browns RB Jerome Ford (hamstring) is considered week-to-week, head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: Ford's injury comes as the Browns hope to get four-time Pro Bowl running back Nick Chubb on the field for Week 7. Chubb is expected to make his season debut against the Bengals in Cleveland next Sunday, as Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot first reported. D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong Jr. will also figure into the mix until Ford is ready to return. |
Titans | Tyjae Spears could miss time Mon Oct 14, 01:20 PM
Tennessee Titans RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring) is considered week-to-week, head coach Brian Callahan told reporters Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, this is expected to be a short absence, though Spears is slated to miss this week. Julius Chestnut moves up in the rotation in Spears' absence, but Tony Pollard will continue to handle the lead role in the backfield -- and possibly gain a bit of work with Spears out. The Titans play the Bills in Buffalo in Week 7. |

Jaguars | Travis Etienne week-to-week Mon Oct 14, 09:20 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne (hamstring) is considered week-to-week with his hamstring injury.
| Footballguys view: As previously noted, Etienne was limited by a shoulder injury the last two weeks, and his snap totals had diminished in each of those games. He played fewer than half the snaps in Week 5 when Tank Bigsby broke out against the Colts. An extended absence for Etienne would open the door for Bigsby to play the lead role, with D'Ernest Johnson moving up in the rotation behind him. Anticipating a multi-week absence makes Johnson a waiver-wire target for teams looking to add depth. |
