Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt is dealing with a thigh injury and his availability for the game against the Indianapolis Colts is uncertain. The team has elevated running back Deon Jackson from the practice squad, indicating concerns about Hunt's status. If Hunt is unable to play, Jerome Ford is expected to see an increased role.

Nick Chubb, running back for the Cleveland Browns, underwent surgery to repair his torn MCL and meniscus on Friday. The surgery also repaired damage to his medial capsule. Chubb will require a second surgery in the coming months to repair his ACL. The team expects him to return to play at some point in 2024. In the meantime, the Browns have Kareem Hunt, Jerome Ford, Pierre Strong, and Deon Jackson in their backfield.

The Indianapolis Colts have released Week 1 starter Deon Jackson and signing fellow running back Trey Sermon from the practice squad. Jackson rushed for just 14 yards on 13 carries and gained only 14 yards on five receptions in the season-opening 31-21 loss to Jacksonville on Sept. 10. Zack Moss got the start in Week 2 at Houston and gained 107 yards from scrimmage on 22 touches and scored on an 11-yard run in the Colts' 31-20 victory. With 2021 NFL rushing champion Jonathan Taylor still on the physically unable to perform list, Moss will remain the RB1 for the Colts (1-1) in Sunday's game in Baltimore against the Ravens (2-0). Jackson, 24, rushed for 281 yards and two touchdowns and caught 35 passes for 223 yards and one score in 27 games (three starts) over the last three seasons in Indianapolis. He was undrafted out of Duke in 2021. Sermon, 24, was a third-round pick by San Francisco in 2021. He has rushed for 186 yards and one TD and has three receptions for 26 yards in 11 games (two starts) with the 49ers (2021) and Philadelphia Eagles (2022).

Deon Jackson has been cut by the Indianapolis Colts. Trey Sermon will be activated from the practice squad in a corresponding move.

Colts RB Evan Hull will miss the rest of the season with a torn meniscus. The Colts are down to RBs Zack Moss, Deon Jackson, and Jake Funk for now. RB Jonathan Taylor is eligible to come off IR after Week 4.

In Week 2's win against the Texans, Colts RB Zack Moss had a strong performance, carrying the ball 18 times for 88 rushing yards and 1 TD. He also had 4 receptions for 19 receiving yards. With Jonathan Taylor on IR and no other healthy notable backs on the roster, Moss is expected to have a significant workload in Week 3 against the Ravens.

Zack Moss, the running back for the Colts, is expected to lead the team in carries against the Texans in Week 2. Moss has fully practiced and is not listed on the injury report. However, his performance last week was not impressive, and he is projected to be an uninspiring RB3 play. Deon Jackson is also expected to mix in, particularly on passing downs.

Colts rookie RB Evan Hull could miss some time with a knee injury, according to head coach Shane Steichen. Deon Jackson is expected to lead the backfield in Hull's absence, with Jake Funk as the No. 2 option. Zack Moss is nearing a return, and Jonathan Taylor is eligible to return in Week 5. Hull may be droppable in shallow leagues.

Deon Jackson had 19 opportunities in the Colts' opener against the Jaguars but only managed to gain 28 scoreless yards. He struggled with just 14 yards on 13 carries and caught five of six targets for 14 yards. Jackson is considered a replacement-level talent and didn't receive much help from the Colts' offensive line. The Colts lost RB Evan Hull to a knee injury in the game, and it remains to be seen if he or RB Zack Moss (forearm) will be available for Week 2. Even if they're both out, Jackson would still be an unexciting RB3 option against the Texans.

Colts RB Evan Hull suffered a knee injury and was unable to continue playing against the Jaguars. RB Deon Jackson will handle the backfield duties for the remainder of the game.

Colts RB Zack Moss has been downgraded to doubtful for Week 1. Deon Jackson and Evan Hull are expected to take over the running back duties against the Jaguars, with QB Anthony Richardson also likely to contribute in the running game. Jackson is the favorite to lead in touches but is only a mediocre RB3 or flex play.

Zack Moss, running back for the Colts, is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. He had a limited week of practice and is expected to play in a 3-RB committee with Deon Jackson and Evan Hull. This situation should be avoided in Week 1 fantasy lineups. Jackson and Hull could see an increase in fantasy value if Moss is inactive.

Zack Moss, running back for the Colts, was limited in practice due to a forearm injury. However, he is expected to be ready for the upcoming game against the Jaguars. Moss will be part of a three-running back committee, sharing the workload with Deon Jackson and Evan Hull.

Zack Moss, running back for the Indianapolis Colts, has returned to practice after recovering from a broken arm. He is expected to play in the team's opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, it is uncertain how much playing time he will receive. The Colts will also have Deon Jackson and Evan Hull available in the absence of Jonathan Taylor. Head coach Shane Steichen mentioned that it will be a running back-by-committee approach, with the player who performs well getting more opportunities. Fantasy managers are advised to avoid starting any Colts running backs in Week 1.

Deon Jackson is expected to start the season opener for the Colts due to injuries to Jonathan Taylor and Zack Moss. Evan Hull is also in the mix, but Jackson's experience gives him the edge. However, the Colts' backfield is expected to be a committee attack, making Jackson an unexciting fantasy play.

Colts head coach Shane Steichen expressed hope that running back Zack Moss will be available for Week 1. Moss broke his arm on July 31 and was initially expected to miss about six weeks. If Moss is healthy, he is expected to be the starter in the absence of Jonathan Taylor. Evan Hull and Deon Jackson are the other running backs on the active roster.
