Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had a career-low day on the ground for fantasy managers in a tough matchup against the Bills on Sunday, carrying the ball nine times for -2 yards while catching five-of-six through the air for 51 yards. It was the first time since the NFL's merger that the previous season's rushing champion finished with negative yardage on the ground, according to Elias Sports. Jacobs will hope to rebound against the Steelers next week.

Miami Dolphins rookie running back De'Von Achane didn't do much in his first NFL game in the Sunday night win over the division-rival New England Patriots, even with backup Salvon Ahmed (groin) getting injured in the contest. Achane finished the 24-17 victory with just one carry for five yards while catching his only target for a four-yard gain. He played just 10 percent of the offensive snaps, which was behind Raheem Mostert (73%), Alec Ingold (60%) and Ahmed (19%). The 21-year-old didn't play in the season opener due to a shoulder injury, but he's healthy now and could see a bigger workload in Week 3 against the Denver Broncos if Ahmed is unable to suit up. Even then, Achane is nothing more than a deep-league handcuff for Mostert as he eases his way into Miami's backfield.
