Josh Jacobs Injury Update
Jacobs (quad, hand) was limited in practice all week long and is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Vegas' offense runs through Jacobs, so expect him to be out there unless he suffers a setback. If active, Jacobs ranks as a high-end RB1.
Rhamondre Stevenson Injury Update
Stevenson (ankle) is questionable for Week 15 against the Raiders. He missed practice on Wednesday or Thursday but did manage to log a limited session on Friday. For now, it looks like he at least has a chance to play versus Vegas, though we might not get official word on his status until Sunday afternoon. It should also be noted that Damien Harris has been ruled out as of Saturday morning.
Aaron Jones Injury Update
Jones (ankle) was limited for the second consecutive day on Friday. Assuming he doesn't suffer any type of setback, the veteran should be able to suit up in Week 15. He ranks as a low-end RB1 in fantasy football for the time being.
Dameon Pierce Injury Update
Pierce (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 15. He was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain after last Sunday's narrow loss to the Cowboys and will ultimately miss at least one game. Rex Burkhead seems most likely to operate as the lead back, but Dare Ogunbowale should compete for touches, too.
Brian Robinson Jr. Injury Update
Robinson (quad) was limited in practice all week long. However, he has been removed from the injury report and will play against the Giants on Sunday. The rookie has totaled 80 rushes and two touchdowns over his last four games, making him a stable RB2 in Week 15.
Najee Harris Injury Update
Harris (hip) missed practice on Wednesday but logged back-to-back full sessions to close out the week. He will play on Sunday, ranking as a low-end RB2 option.
David Montgomery Injury Update
Montgomery (illness) logged a full practice on Friday and has been cleared to play against the Eagles. The 25-year-old averaged 17.37 points over his last three games prior to the bye week. Even if he plays second fiddle to Justin Fields in the rushing attack, Montgomery still ranks as a fringe RB2.
Antonio Gibson Injury Update
Gibson (foot) was limited in practice all week long. However, he has been removed from the injury report and will play against the Giants on Sunday. The talented, young back has emerged as a key weapon in the passing game and should continue to be viewed as an RB3 in Week 15.
Damien Harris Injury Update
Harris (thigh) was limited all week long and is officially listed as questionable to play on Sunday. As Bill Belichick prepares to take on Josh McDaniels, New England must prepare for a worst-case scenario in which neither of its running backs plays. If that were to happen, rookies Kevin Harris and Pierre Strong Jr. would lead the way.
Jeff Wilson Jr. Injury Update
Wilson (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bills. He logged a limited practice session on Thursday and remains at risk of missing the Buffalo game if his injury persists.
