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 Rams running back Kyren Williams still received the bulk of the backfield workload and saw the team's third-most targets. During the 30-20 win over the Minnesota Vikings, Williams finished with 23 carries for 97 yards, five receptions for 19 yards, and a touchdown on seven targets. With this performance, Williams moved into the RB2 on the season for the time being. He continues to receive the most reliable share of touches in most backfields and should see a bit more open field with the receiving corps getting healthy again. He'll look to score again in Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks.
