Travaris Cadet - RB - Free Agent

Free agent RB Travaris Cadet is working out for the Jets on Tuesday.

He worked out for Washington earlier this month. Cadet played for Jets OC John Morton with the Saints. It seems unlikely he is signed unless Matt Forte is dealing with a more serious injury than expected.

Chris Thompson - RB - Redskins

Redskins coach Jay Gruden said he is not going to give Chris Thompson more touches.

"He's going to keep pushing me for them, but he's not going to get them," Gruden said. The back is averaging a ridiculous 13 yards per touch so far this season, but the coach wants to make sure Thompson, who has a long injury history, stays on the field for 16 games. That said, it will be impossible to keep him out of the lineup if he continues to produce like he has the first three weeks.

Rob Kelley - RB - Redskins

Redskins coach Jay Gruden said Rob Kelley (ribs) will still be the team's "No. 1 lead dog" when healthy.

Kelley surprisingly sat out Sunday night's matchup with the Raiders, a game Chris Thompson dominated as he has all season. Still, Washington seemingly does not want to use Thompson as more than a complementary back, meaning Kelley should lead the backfield in touches when he is healthy. Kelley is expected to participate when Washington opens their practice week on Thursday.

Kareem Hunt - RB - Chiefs

Chiefs coach Andy Reid said he does not plan to scale back Kareem Hunt's workload.

The rookie is on pace for almost 300 touches, but his coach is not concerned about him hitting the wall. "No, I think we’re okay with how we’re using him," Reid said. "I just go off of the feel I have and the experience, we’ll be all right there." Perhaps the usage wears him down as the season goes on, but right now Hunt is as good as they come at running back. He will be an elite play in a great matchup against Washington on Monday night.

Jay Cutler - QB - Dolphins

Coach Adam Gase said he is fed up with the Dolphins' "garbage" offense.

"A lot of bad football. More mental errors than we've had the last two years," Gase said. "I'll find the guys that want to do it right, and those are the guys that will play." Similarly fed up with his team after a bad start last season, Gase cut three offensive linemen on the same day, so it is possible a big shakeup is on the way. That said, none of it will matter if Jay Cutler does not play better than he did on Sunday.

Melvin Gordon - RB - Chargers

Melvin Gordon said his injured knee is "good."

Gordon is reportedly dealing with a "minor" bone bruise in the same knee which required microfracture surgery after his rookie year. That is at least slightly concerning, but neither the player nor his coach appears to be worried. "He’s sore," Anthony Lynn said. "He was sore last week. We’ll monitor him this week, but I’m sure he’ll be fine." As long as he is active, Gordon will be a locked-in RB1 against the Eagles.

Joe Dahl - G - Lions

Lions placed OG Joe Dahl (leg) on injured reserve.

Dahl competed for a starting job this summer, but he settled in as Detroit's top backup. It is possible he is brought back later in the year. Detroit signed OG Tim Lelito to replace him.

Cole Beasley - WR - Cowboys

Cole Beasley caught his lone target for four yards in the Cowboys' Week 3 win over the Cardinals.

He was barely even noticeable Monday night. Dak Prescott only attempted 18 passes and was going deep to Brice Butler at times or hitting Dez Bryant and Terrance Williams over the middle. Beasley is only worth owning in deeper PPR leagues. The good news is the Cowboys' schedule starts to soften.
