San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey had his 31st career games with 50-plus yards rushing and 50-plus yards receiving in Week 1, and only Marshall Faulk has more such games in NFL history.

Denver Broncos practice squad FB Adam Prentice was elevated to the active roster Saturday, Sept. 13, and will be available for Week 2.
Link to storyJacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne had four runs of 10-plus yards in the season opener, tying his career high for a single game.
Footballguys view: We'll see what Etienne can do against the Bengals this week. This has the potential to be a high-scoring game, so that's got us excited for Etienne in Week 2. Consider him an RB2 with upside. |

New York Jets RB Breece Hall faces the Buffalo Bills in Week 2, and Hall is averaging 6.42 yards per carry in four career games against the Bills.
Footballguys view: Hall looked great in Week 1 against the Steelers with 107 yards rushing. This week against the Bills, we like Hall as an RB2 with RB1 upside. |
Washington Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt is 'expected to be the starting running back' moving forward, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Footballguys view: With Austin Ekeler out for the rest of the season with a torn Achilles' it's not a surprise to hear this news. Croskey-Merritt is a three-down back who doesn't waste a lot of motion as a runner. Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez will work as the reserve runners behind Croskey-Merritt. |

The Indianapolis Colts elevated RB Ulysses Bentley IV from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Sept. 13, for Week 2's game against the Denver Broncos.
Link to storyCleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (non-injury) is expected to make his NFL debut in Week 2's game versus the Baltimore Ravens, according to multiple sources.
Footballguys view: Fellow rookie RB Dylan Sampson is still going to have at least a 'what the heck' flex worthy role as a receiver out of the backfield. We'll see if the Browns ease Judkins, a powerful runner who gets stronger as the game goes on, into action in his debut. We're taking a wait-and-see approach with Judkins this week against the Ravens. |

Tennessee Titans OT JC Latham (hip) and DL T'Vondre Sweat (ankle) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams.

S Quandre Diggs (hand) and LB Arden Key (pectoral) practiced in full on Friday and no longer appear on the injury report.
Footballguys view: The Rams catch a small, or actually rather large break with the 360+ pound Sweat out against an offensive line that has two banged up guards. Latham will be missed on the Titans offensive line - expect the Rams edge rush to attack his replacement. |

Chicago Bears CB Kyler Gordon (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 2 against the Detroit Lions. WR Jahdae Walker (ankle) did not practice on Friday, Sept. 12, and is listed as doubtful. DL Grady Jarrett (knee) was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable. CB Josh Blackwell (groin), LB T.J. Edwards (hamstring), CB Jaylon Johnson (calf, groin), RB Roschon Johnson (foot), and WR DJ Moore (abdomen, groin) practiced in full on Friday and no longer appear on the injury report.
Footballguys view: The Bears secondary will miss Gordon against the Lions passing game after JJ McCarthy came alive in the fourth quarter to snatch a comeback victory against a Bears defense that shut him down for three quarters. Roschon Johnson has been nursing that foot injury for weeks. Head coach Ben Johnson said he wants to get seventh round pick Kyle Monangai more involved this week. Johnson could also get his number called this week as the Bears will look to run more early than they did last week. |

Cleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (non-injury) is questionable to play in Week 2 against the Baltimore Ravens, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski.
Footballguys view: Even if Judkins is active, he won't play a large role, and the Browns have a tough matchup against the Ravens. There is some possibility of a suspension as the league hasn't wound up their investigation of the domestic violence incident that froze the contract negotiation process between Judkins camp and the Browns. Hold onto Judkins as long as bench size allows, but don't expect much if anything this weekend. |
Miami Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright (leg) is doubtful to play in Week 2, according to head coach Mike McDaniel.
Link to storyGreen Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs carried the ball 23 times for 84 yards and a touchdown against the Washington Commanders in Week 2. Jacobs was not targeted as a receiver.
Footballguys view: Jacobs has been mostly contained as a runner, and not that productive as a receiver, but you still have to feel good about his staying power because of the Packers defense's ability to keep them in run-heavy game scripts. The Packers were also missing two starting offensive linemen in a short week of rest. |

Updating an earlier report, Washington Commanders RB Austin Ekeler (Achilles) is believed to have suffered a ruptured Achilles' tendon during the team's Week 2 matchup with the Green Bay Packers. He will undergo imaging to confirm the injury on Friday, Sept. 12. Prior to departing, Ekeler carried the ball eight times for 17 yards to go along with two receptions for seven yards.
Footballguys view: Ekeler had been showing his signature burst and creativity from the Chargers days as a Commander even though they didn't give him a large enough role to flourish in fantasy leagues. Washington's offense will miss him more than fantasy teams. If this is it for Ekeler, he will go down as one of the best UDFA backs in NFL history, and an inspiration to small school college players and undrafted players everywhere. |
Austin Ekeler player page
Washington Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt had four carries for 17 yards in a Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Croskey-Merritt was targeted once in the passing game but did not record a reception.
Footballguys view: The game script was terrible for the Washington running game, and this is a Packers defense that bottled up a much more robust Lions running game in Week 1. We shouldn't read too much into this as an indicator of Croskey-Merritt's prospects going forward. He could get marginally more snaps with Austin Ekeler likely gone for the season, but expect the Commanders to bring in a veteran back who can help replace Ekeler in the passing game. |
Washington Commanders RB Austin Ekeler (Achilles) has been ruled out for the remainder of the Week 2 game against the Green Bay Packers after suffering an Achilles injury.

Cleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (non-injury) fully participated in practice Thursday, Sept. 11.
Footballguys view: Judkins could play in Week 2 against the Ravens. Thursday was his first practice with the team in over a month. Judkins is a two-down banger who can help the Browns offense. Dylan Sampson is still likely to get work as a pass-catching back for the Browns if/when Judkins gets on the field. |
