Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott drew the start on Sunday night with Rico Dowdle (illness) being a late scratch. The veteran led the rushing attack with 10 carries for 34 yards and a touchdown. He added a reception for four yards in what turned out to be his best fantasy outing since Week 1. With Dowdle likely to be back next week, Elliott's fantasy relevance was likely short-lived.

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins scored a touchdown in a Week 8 win over the New Orleans Saints. Dobbins led the Chargers backfield in all categories, running the ball 17 times for 57 yards and catching four of seven passing game targets for 11 yards. Dobbins scored on a one-yard goal line run in the second quarter. Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins combined for just seven carries and 16 yards, showing once again that Dobbins has this backfield locked down. He'll be in the RB1/2 conversation most weeks, including in Week 9 when the Chargers travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns.
