Kubiak: Backfield split a 'moving target'

Key Points:

• Raiders coach Klint Kubiak indicated the team's backfield touch distribution is flexible, with rookie Mike Washington Jr. recently taking over as the lead rusher, though Ashton Jeanty remains a key part of the offense, especially as a pass catcher.
• Jeanty struggles as a rusher but excels in receiving, ranking fifth among running backs in expected fantasy points per game, while Washington has been more efficient on the ground but less effective in goal-line situations.
• Several NFL teams made roster moves: Eagles waived CB Jakorian Bennett; Saints released kicker Daniel Carlson; Ravens placed kicker Tyler Loop on injured reserve; Bills released DB C.J. Gardner-Johnson; Commanders placed DT Javon Kinlaw and RB Jeremy McNichols on injured reserve.
• The Giants signed CB Greg Newsome to a three-year, $46 million extension following his strong performance this season, and the Colts extended DT Adetomiwa Adebawore for two years, $35 million amid his breakout campaign.
• Broncos WR Pat Bryant is reportedly returning to practice after missing four games due to an ankle injury, while Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. remains a trade candidate despite limited targets this season.
