Andrew Beck RB | NYJ
Jets' Andrew Beck: Makes 17-yard catch
Beck caught his only target for 17 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.
Beck's 17-yard reception set a new season high for the fullback. He has five catches in 2025 heading into a Week 15 matchup with the Jaguars.

Josh Jacobs RB | GB
Packers' Josh Jacobs: Gets back in end zone Sunday
Jacobs handled 20 carries for 86 yards and a touchdown while grabbing both of his targets for six yards in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears.
Jacobs was limited early in the practice week with the same knee injury he picked up in Week 12 before being cleared of the designation with a full practice Friday. The 27-year-old showed no limitations while handling 20 out of 23 backfield carries in the win over Chicago. Jacobs' touchdown run in the fourth quarter was the talented runner's 12th trip to the end zone on the season and first since Week 10. With his health back in order, Jacobs is shaping up to be an RB1 for fantasy managers as the playoff schedule approaches.

Elijah Mitchell RB | KC
Chiefs' Elijah Mitchell: Not playing Week 14
Mitchell (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Mitchell will be a healthy scratch for a third consecutive game, as the Chiefs will go with a three-man backfield Sunday in Kareem Hunt, Isiah Pacheco and Brashard Smith. Mitchell's next opportunity to play is Week 15 against the Chargers on Sunday, Dec. 14, though he's unlikely to play unless Hunt, Pacheco or Smith miss time.

Devin Neal RB | NO
Saints' Devin Neal: Impressive as lead back in win
Neal rushed 19 times for 70 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for 14 yards in the Saints' 24-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Neal drew another start in place of Alvin Kamara (knee) and surprisingly found some running room against a normally stingy Buccaneers front. The rookie sixth-round pick set a new career high in rushing yardage and added a three-yard touchdown run early in the first quarter for his first career score. With the 3-10 Saints firmly in evaluation mode as head coach Kellen Moore's first season at the helm winds down, Neal could continue to see expanded opportunity irrespective of Kamara's availability down the stretch.

Derrick Henry RB | BAL
Ravens' Derrick Henry: Tops 100 yards from scrimmage again
Henry rushed the ball 25 times for 94 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Steelers. He recorded one catch on two targets for eight yards.
Despite playing from a deficit for most of the game, the Ravens made a point of getting Henry involved in the offense, as his 25 carries were his highest mark of the season. He's had considerable success against the Steelers in the past, totaling 348 yards on the ground over his last two matchups, though the Pittsburgh defense got the better end of things Sunday by limiting him to only 3.8 yards per carry. Henry still managed a few chunk gains of 19 and nine yards, topping 100 yards from scrimmage for the third time in his last four games in the process.

Isaiah Davis RB | NYJ
Jets' Isaiah Davis: Two touches in Week 14
Davis rushed twice for 22 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.
One of Davis' two carries went for 19 yards, marking his second-longest run of the season. Breece Hall led the backfield as usual for the Jets with 14 carries, and Davis is expected to be limited to a change-of-pace role again in Week 15 at Jacksonville.

Ty Johnson RB | BUF
Bills' Ty Johnson: Four touches Sunday
Johnson carried the ball twice for 25 yards and caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 39-34 win over the Bengals.
The backup RB caught multiple passes for a sixth straight game, while his 25 rushing yards were a season high. Ray Davis, Buffalo's usual No. 2 RB behind James Cook, didn't get a touch at all Sunday. Johnson has a 14-176-1 line on 16 targets during that six-game stretch while chipping in 56 rushing yards and another score, giving him some modest PPR appeal heading into a Week 15 meeting with the Patriots.
-
James Cook RB | BUF
Bills' James Cook: Tops century mark against Cincy
Cook carried the ball 18 times for 80 yards and caught both his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 39-34 win over the Bengals.
The star running back had a little trouble holding onto the ball in snowy, cold conditions, committing two fumbles and losing one, but he reached 100 scrimmage yards for a fourth straight game and the sixth time in the last seven contests. Over that stretch, Cook has piled up 771 rushing yards and three TDs on the ground while adding a 17-178-1 line on 17 targets. He'll face a much tougher test in Week 15 against the Patriots' stingy run defense.

Jonathan Taylor RB | IND
Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Scores early TD in loss
Taylor rushed the ball 21 times for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-19 loss to the Jaguars. He also lost a fumble.
Taylor got off to a strong start, racking up 15 yards and a touchdown on four carries on the Colts' second drive. However, things went downhill from there, as Daniel Jones (Achilles) exited the game, allowing the Jaguars' defense to focus their entire attention on Taylor, and Taylor also lost a fumble early in the second quarter that led directly to a Jaguars' score. His efficiency had already suffered of late, and the state of the Colts' offense is a concern moving forward. Both factors dampen Taylor's fantasy outlook for the rest of the season, though his volume and ability to hit for long runs will still give him the chance to be a strong fantasy performer.

Ollie Gordon II RB | MIA
Dolphins' Ollie Gordon: Backs up Wright after Achane injury
Gordon rushed five times for 17 yards and a touchdown but wasn't targeted in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Jets.
Jaylen Wright (24 carries for 107 yards and a touchdown) was the primary beneficiary of De'Von Achane's (ribs) second-quarter exit, but Gordon contributed a seven-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. More opportunities could be available for both Wright and Gordon if Achane's sidelined or limited against the Steelers in Week 15. Gordon has scored a rushing touchdown in two of his last three games, but the rookie sixth-round pick hasn't exceeded 46 rushing yards in any game.
