Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert has worked strictly as a backup this season. Through five games, he has logged 16 carries for 80 yards and added three receptions for 27 yards. With rookie Ashton Jeanty leading the backfield, Mostert has been limited to just a 24% snap share. The matchup doesn't help in Week 10, as Denver is allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to running backs. Mostert holds value only as Jeanty's handcuff and on kick returns, but he should remain on waivers in all fantasy formats for now.

As the Minnesota Vikings face a short week and a series of injuries in the backfield, running back Cam Akers is likely the next man up if needed on Thursday at the Los Angeles Chargers. Jordan Mason should still be the Vikings' top option, but Zavier Scott (wrist) is now facing an injury and Aaron Jones (hamstring) has not yet been activated off injured reserve. If Jones is not moved onto the active roster, Akers likely would be Minnesota's answer behind Mason. No action is needed just yet, but managers in deeper leagues might want to keep an eye on the Vikings' backfield if facing a bye-week crunch.
