With running back Leonard Fournette still on the shelf with a hamstring injury and T.J. Yeldon bothered by an ankle injury, the Jacksonville Jaguars made a bold move Friday and acquired Carlos Hyde from the Cleveland Browns for a fifth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.

It might seem unlikely that Hyde could arrive in Jacksonville and play in Sunday's game against Houston, but runners don't have as much of a learning curve as other players, so it's possible a package could be created that could get Hyde on the field.

The move by the Browns means rookie Nick Chubb will be getting the ball more than the 16 times he ran it in the first six games of the season. Chubb averaged 10.8 yards per attempt and had two touchdowns, including a 63-yard scoring run.

Minnesota will be facing the Jets without running back Dalvin Cook and left tackle Riley Reiff, and wide receiver T.Y. Hilton returns to the field for the Colts' home game against Buffalo. The Bills will have Derek Anderson at quarterback with rookie Josh Allen declared out with a right elbow injury.

Brock Osweiler makes his second consecutive start for the Dolphins with Ryan Tannehill (right shoulder) on the sideline. Kicker Greg Zuerlein makes his return for the Rams after missing five games with a groin injury, but Chargers kicker Caleb Sturgis could miss another game because of a right quadriceps injury. If he can't go, Michael Badgley will handle the kicking duties against the Titans in London.

In Tampa, new defensive coordinator Mark Duffner won't have defensive end Vinny Curry, defensive tackle Gerald McCoy and safety Jordan Whitehead for the Bucs' home game against the Browns.
