Green-Ellis continues to recover from a hamstring injury that he suffered before the Bengals' regular season finale, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis sat out in Week 17, before starting the team's Divisional Round defeat to the Texans, when he recorded 11 rushes for 63 yards. He should be rounding into full health very soon, meaning his participation in April's OTAs is expected.

Green-Ellis (hamstring) carried the ball 11 times for 63 yards in Saturday's playoff loss to the Texans.

Analysis: Green-Ellis finished up the 2012 regular season with a workmanlike 1,094 yards on 278 carries with six touchdowns to go along with 22 catches 104 yards in 15 games. While not the flashiest back around, the likelihood that he will continue to handle the bulk of the Bengals' carries in 2013 makes…read more

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: (Hamstring) Upgraded To Full Practice

Green-Ellis (hamstring) practiced fully Friday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Texans, so there's little doubt that he will be available for the Bengals' playoff opener, after not seeing a a snap in Week 17.

Green-Ellis (hamstring) practiced in a limited fashion once again Thursday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: We'll have to see how the Bengals list Green-Ellis for Saturday's game against the Texans, but we suspect he will be out there this weekend, despite not playing in the Bengals' season finale last Sunday after tweaking his hamstring in warmups.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: Limited at Practice

Green-Ellis (hamstring) was back at practice Wednesday, Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reports. He was officially listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Analysis: We'll track Green-Ellis's status leading up to Saturday's Wild Card game against Houston, but his viability in playoff pools is necessarily linked to the confidence drafters have in the Bengals' chances of getting past the favored Texans this weekend.

Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden is "somewhat optimistic" that Green-Ellis will be available Saturday against the Texans, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis' regular season was solid overall, but it ended on a sour note, as he was held to 14 yards on 15 carries in Week 16 and sat out a Week 17 win over the Ravens. Even if healthy, the Texans will nonetheless present a stout run defense for Green-Ellis to contend with.

Green-Ellis (hamstring) sat out Tuesday's practice, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis' injury is unlikely to sideline him for this weekend's Wild Card matchup with the Texans. He sat out Sunday's game against the Ravens, but it was more of a precautionary move since the Bengals already had their playoff berth solidified.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: (Hamstring) Out Sunday

Green-Ellis (hamstring) will not play Sunday against the Ravens, the Bengals' official Twitter page reports.

Analysis: After suffering a hamstring injury during pregame warmups, Green-Ellis won't be available Sunday. The severity of the injury is unknown, so it's uncertain whether it could keep him from next weekend's Wild Card matchup.

Green-Ellis (hamstring) is not expected to play Sunday against the Ravens, Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis reportedly suffered a hamstring injury during pregame warmups, but, unfortunately for fantasy owners, the news broke after kickoff. His status for next week's Wild Card game is uncertain at this point.

Green-Ellis (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens

Analysis: While Green-Ellis is in uniform, with the Bengals' playoff seeding locked in, we wouldn't be surprised to see his Week 17 carries managed by the team in an attempt to keep him in one piece as the postseason approaches.

Green-Ellis (illness) is probable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis will be available this weekend, but with the Bengals' playoff seeding locked in, we wouldn't be surprised to see his Week 17 carries managed by the team in an attempt to keep him fresh/healthy for the postseason.

Green-Ellis (illness) returned to practice Friday, Cincinnati Enquirer writer Joe Reedy reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis figures to be listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, but with the Bengals' playoff seeding locked in, it's possible that his Week 17 carries could be managed in an attempt to keep him fresh/healthy for the playoffs.

Green-Ellis (illness) did not practice Thursday Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reports.

Analysis: Though we don't expect that Green-Ellis' illness will sideline him Sunday against the Ravens, with the Bengals locked into the sixth seed in the AFC, it will be interesting to see how the Bengals -- who will play to win according to coach Marvin Lewis -- manage Green Ellis' workload in their…read more

Green-Ellis had 15 carries for 14 rushing yards and one catch on one target for zero receiving yards Sunday against the Steelers.

Analysis: A dismal performance for Green-Ellis, who had rushed for over 100 yards in four of the prior five games heading into Sunday. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, the Steelers' top-ranked defense did a great job of slowing him down, holding him to a season low 0.9 YPC. He'll look to turn things around…read more

Green-Ellis had 25 carries for 106 rushing yards with a touchdown in Thursday's win over the Eagles.

Analysis: With the solid effort Thursday, Green-Ellis surpassed the 1,000-yard rushing mark and hit paydirt for third time in five games, four of which saw him top 100 rushing yards. Next up for the Bengals and Green-Ellis are the Steelers in Week 16, in a game that could have major AFC North playoff…read more

Green-Ellis continues hot streak

Green-Ellis totaled 12 carries for 89 yards against the Cowboys on Sunday. The back also added 13 yards receiving. WATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Analysis: While his 10.20 fantasy points was his lowest total in four games, the back was able to mark his fourth straight 100 -plus yardage total. A matchup against the Eagles next week should continue his recent surge.

Green-Ellis had 12 carries for 89 rushing yards and three catches on four targets for 13 receiving yards Sunday against the Cowboys.

Analysis: A decent output for Green-Ellis against a solid defensive team. He has now eclipsed 100 total yards in four straight games, although Sunday was his first in that span without 100 rushing yards. Up next is an Eagles' defense that allowed 128 yards and a touchdown to Doug Martin on Sunday.

Green-Ellis hits career best

In his Week 14 "Like/Dislike" analysis, Adam Rank notes, "BenJarvus Green-Ellis has three straight 100-yard rushing games for the first time in his NFL career." READ: LIKE/DISLIKE

Analysis: Green-Ellis will get his chance to make it four straight against a Cowboys defense which is allowing an average of 116 yards per game and 11 touchdowns this season.

Green-Ellis (ankle) had 25 carries for 118 rushing yards, as well as four catches on five targets for 14 receiving yards Sunday against the Chargers.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has now eclipsed the century mark on the ground in three straight games, averaging over 5.0 yards per carry over that span. Next up is a favorable matchup next week against a Cowboys' defense that was burned by Bryce Brown in Week 13.

Green-Ellis (ankle) is active for Sunday's contest at San Diego.

Analysis: Despite his addition to Friday's injury report with an ankle injury, Green-Ellis will be available versus a Chargers defense that has allowed 111.3 yards per game -- but no touchdowns -- on the ground the past three outings.

Green-Ellis was added to the Bengals' Week 13 injury report due to an ankle issue that limited him at practice Friday, the team's official site reports. Green-Ellis is now listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Analysis: Though late week injury report additions tend to raise eyebrows, Green-Ellis' probable designation suggests that his ankle issue is minor and shouldn't affect his availability Sunday. Just to be safe though, it's not a bad idea to verify his final status prior to the Bengals' 4:25 ET kickoff.

Law Firm on a roll

BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for 129 yards and a touchdown against the NFL's most generous defense. He had runs of 48 and 39 yards -- the longest of his career -- to set up scores. WATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Analysis: Green-Ellis now has two consecutive games of 16.80 points or more for the Bengals.

Green-Ellis had 19 carries for 129 rushing yards and a touchdown, as well as one catch on one target for nine receiving yards Sunday against the Raiders.

Analysis: Green-Ellis's 6.8 YPC were a season-high, as were the 129 rushing yards. He has recorded back-to-back games with at least 100 yards and a touchdown, although fantasy owners may have to temper their expectations next week, as the Bengals face off against a Chargers defense that came into Sunday with…read more

Law Firm off to a hot start

After one half of play, Green-Ellis has totaled 83 yards and a touchdown. FOLLOW WITH GAME CENTER

Analysis: The Raiders defense has allowed 24 points in just the first half, so expect all your Bengals to find continued success.

Law Firm on a roll

In his Week 12 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em analysis, Michael Fabiano notes Green-Ellis has "scored double-digit fantasy points and one touchdown in two of his last three games, and that's despite losing some work to Cedric Peerman." FULL START 'EM, SIT 'EM

Analysis: The Oakland Raiders defense has given up the fourth-most fantasy points to running backs on the road (21.38 PPG) in 2012, so start the Law Firm as needed.

Green-Ellis had 25 carries for 101 rushing yards and a touchdown, as well as one catch on one target for seven receiving yards Sunday against the Chiefs.

Analysis: Sunday was the first time this season that Green-Ellis broke through the 100-yard mark and he now has two touchdowns in the last three games. He could get close to that mark again next week, against a Raiders' defense that was ranked 21st against the run heading into Sunday.

Green-Ellis (illness) had 15 carries for 50 rushing yards and two catches on two targets for eight receiving yards Sunday against the Giants.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has failed to eclipse 70 rushing yards since Week 2 and has scored only one touchdown over the last six games. Nevertheless, he remains the clear-cut starter in Cincinnati and has a favorable matchup next week against the Chiefs, who were ranked 23rd against the run this season heading…read more

Green-Ellis (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants, the Bengals' official Twitter feed reports.

Analysis: He's still getting a useful number of carries each week, but Green-Ellis is a low-end starting option at the present time. Fortunately for those relying on him, the matchup against the Giants is a good one (4.6 YPC allowed this season).

Green-Ellis, who missed practice Wednesday due to an illness, practiced fully both Thursday and Friday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: He'll take aim at a Giants' defense Sunday that is allowing an average of 118 rushing yards per game and is coming off a Week 9 loss to the Steelers that saw Isaac Redman carry 26 times for a career-high 147 yards.

Green-Ellis, who missed practice Wednesday due to an illness, was a full practice participant Thursday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: Expect a probable designation come Friday, but there's nothing to suggest that Green-Ellis won't be leading the Bengals' rushing attack Sunday against the Giants.

Giants defense stout vs. run

In his Week 10 "Start 'Em, Sit 'Em" analysis, fantasy expert Michael Fabiano notes, "The Law Firm has a tough matchup this week against the Giants, who have allowed four rushing touchdowns and the ninth-fewest fantasy points to runners." READ: START 'EM, SIT 'EM

Analysis: Green-Ellis found the end zone last week against the Denver Broncos, but it was the first time he had scored double-digit fantasy points since Week 2.

Green-Ellis missed practice Wednesday due to an illness, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: With no injury in play here, it looks like Green-Ellis will be fine for Sunday's game against the Giants. We'll let you know if this turns into anything to be concerned about as the week progresses, however.

Green-Ellis (unspecified issue) didn't work early on during practice on Wednesday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: We'll get some sort of official designation -- along with the nature of Green-Ellis' limitations -- once the Bengals release their official practice report, but so far there has been no talk of him possibly missing Sunday's game against the Ginats.

Green-Ellis had 17 carries for 56 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Broncos. He also added two catches for minus 3 yards.

Analysis: Green-Ellis snapped a four game streak without a touchdown, although he's failed to reach 95 rushing yards in any game this season. He'll line up next week against a Giants' defense that was ranked 19th against the run heading into Week 9.

Law Firm riding cold-streak

In his Week 9 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em analysis, Michael Fabiano notes Green-Ellis' "lack of production is a major issue. He's failed to score double-digit fantasy points since Week 2 and hasn't scored over seven points in his last three games." READ: START 'EM, SIT 'EM

Analysis: With the Broncos ranked 14th against the run, the matchup is one where the Law Firm could fall flat just as easily as he could produce a good game. Given his history however, it might be best to look elsewhere.

Green-Ellis ran for 69 yards on 18 carries in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.

Analysis: Green-Ellis had a decent day, but it was Chris Peerman who ended up getting the rushing touchdown from five yards out. Green-Ellis has been held without a touchdown in three straight games and won't score in Week 8 as the Bengals are on a bye.

Lower expectations for Law Firm

In his Week 7 Like/Dislike analysis, fantasy expert Adam Rank notes "BenJarvus Green-Ellis hasn't scored a touchdown in three consecutive games, and has scored fewer than eight points in four consecutive games." FULL LIKE/DISLIKE REPORT

Analysis: The Bengals have just three rushing touchdowns in their last 12 games against the Steelers and should be focused on the passing game. Don't expect a big day from the Law Firm.

Green-Ellis could be effective

In his "Rap Sheet Rankings," Ian Rapoport notes that "facing a flawed Pittsburgh defense, The Law Firm should get plenty of burn." FULL RAP SHEET RANKINGS

Analysis: Though Green-Ellis could take advantage of the Steelers' issues, temper expectations. He has not scored more than 7.80 fantasy points in any of his last four games.

Green-Ellis continues struggles

BenJarvus Green-Ellis was quietly held to just 70 total yards in what turned out to be a heavy passing day for the Bengals. FULL GAME RECAP

Analysis: Green-Ellis has now scored no more than 7.40 fantasy points in three consecutive performances. Cedric Peerman was the go-to RB option in passing situations, totaling eight catches for 76 yards.

Green-Ellis had 62 rushing yards on 16 carries and eight receiving yards on one catch Sunday against the Browns.

Analysis: Another disappointing game for Green-Ellis, who hasn't averaged more than 4.0 yards per carry in any game since Week 1. He faces a tough Steelers' run defense next week, so it's tough for fantasy owners to expect a breakout then.

Scott out for the season

Cincinnati Bengals backup running back Bernard Scott (ACL) is out for the season. The Bengals will rely on BenJarvus Green-Ellis to carry the load

Analysis: In the past few weeks, we've seen why Green-Ellis was part of a platoon in New England. He doesn't look capable of being a workhorse back. This week, however, the Law Firm faces a run-friendly Browns defense. Don't give up on him quite yet.

Scott could miss rest of season

Cincinnati Bengals running back Bernard Scott hurt his knee during a 17-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins. There is possible anterior cruciate ligament damage and fear he could be out for the season, according to reports. FULL INJURY ROUNDUP

Analysis: BenJarvus Green-Ellis will carry the full-load moving forward, so expect an uptick in production from the veteran. He faces a Cleveland defense in Week 6 which allowed Ahmad Bradshaw 200 yards rushing and a touchdown.

Green-Ellis rushed for 14 yards on nine carries and caught one pass for two yards Sunday against the Dolphins.

Analysis: A miserable performance for Green-Ellis, who had at least 75 rushing yards or a touchdown in each game this season. He will now face a Browns' defense that allowed 243 rushing yards to the Giants on Sunday.

Green-Ellis had 82 rushing yards on 26 carries and 12 receiving yards on two catches Sunday against the Jaguars.

Analysis: Fantasy owners will take the 82 yards although they can't feel good that it took so many carries to get there. Green-Ellis also lost a fumble for the second straight week after not having a single one before then. He's in no danger of losing his starting job, although he's got a tough matchup next…read more

Green-Ellis had 17 carries for 38 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Redskins.

Analysis: Green-Ellis' 2.2 YPC were very disappointing, although the touchdown helped make up for it. His rushing yards have gone from 91 to 75 to 38, but he's got a touchdown in two of three games and he remains the top back in Cincinnati moving forward.

Week 2 Touches Leaders

Arian Foster led all RBs in touches (34) in Week 2, followed by Reggie Bush (29). Surprises of the week included Cedric Benson and BenJarvus Green-Ellis, with 24 touches each.

Analysis: Touches should be a stat you look at every week. Make sure to read Jason Smith's full analysis to stay ahead of the…read more

Green-Ellis had 21 carries for 75 yards and three catches for 30 yards during Sunday's win over the Browns.

Analysis: Green-Ellis looked like former Bengals' running back Cedric Benson on Sunday, getting plenty of carries and chugging out a few yards each time. Despite not getting into the end zone, Law Firm was still able to eclipse 100 total yards for the first time this season.

Green-Ellis had 18 carries for 91 yards with a touchdown and caught one pass for four yards Monday against the Ravens.

Analysis: The other Bengals running backs pretty much only touched the ball in garbage time as Green-Ellis put a stranglehold on the workhorse back role. He'll try to keep the momentum going in Week 2 against a Browns teams that just surrendered 5.5 YPC to LeSean McCoy last week.

Green-Ellis' top backup, Bernard Scott, won't play Monday against the Ravens due to a hand injury, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis is past the foot issue that slowed him in the preseason and with Scott not in the mix in Week 1, Green-Ellis figures to be busy against Baltimore on Monday in his Bengals' regular season debut.

Coach Marvin Lewis says that Green-Ellis is "ready to go," the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis was held out of the preseason finale last Thursday, but Lewis said that if it were a regular-season game, he could have played. Green-Ellis is listed as the top back on the depth chart, but expect backup Bernard Scott to get plenty of carries early in the season as well, especially if…read more

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: (Foot) Back at Practice

Green-Ellis (foot) was on the field for Sunday night's practice at Paul Brown Stadium, but he probably will not play in the team's preseason finale Thursday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: That said, Green-Ellis is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. The Bengals haven't had their top two running backs for most of the preseason.

Green-Ellis (foot) is inactive for Thursday's preseason game against the Packers, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: Bernard Scott is out as well, which gives the Bengals' depth backs (such as Brian Leonard, Dan Herron, Aaron Brown and Cedric Peerman) a chance to see added preseason reps.

Green-Ellis (foot) did not practice Monday, the Bengals' official site reports.

Analysis: It remains to be seen if Green-Ellis will suit up Thursday against the Packers, but so far there hasn't been anything to suggest that his foot injury is a major one.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: Foot Issue

Green-Ellis (foot) will miss Thursday's game against Atlanta, Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: With Bernard Scott dealing with a hand injury, look for the likes of Brian Leonard, Cedric Peerman, Aaron Brown and Dan Herron to see extra reps Thursday. We'll await further details regarding Green-Ellis' injury before pushing the panic button though. Until then, consider him day-to-day.

Green-Ellis had seven carries for 22 yards and one reception for 18 yards in his Bengals debut in Friday's preseason win over the Jets.

Analysis: Green-Ellis' reception came when he was lined up in the slot. He didn't get used in those kind of formations in New England, so this could be a tantalizing new wrinkle to his game.

The Bengals plan to employ a committee at running back, meaning Green-Ellis may not be utilized as a feature back, the team's official website reports.

Analysis: Although Green-Ellis was used in tandem with Danny Woodhead last season, some may have anticipated a bigger role for him in Cincinnati after he signed a three-year deal in March. Lacking the burst and breakaway speed of traditional every-down backs, however, Green-Ellis is likely best suited to…read more

Bengals to use backfield by committee

The Cincinnati Enquirer reports running backs Benjarvis Green-Ellis and Bernard Scott will split carries this season. After committing to Cedric Benson as a workhorse last year, the approach has shifted since neither The Law Firm or Scott are seen as being able to handle such a heavy load.

Analysis: Just when it was looking up for Green-Ellis to be a feature back, things turn out otherwise. It remains to be seen how the carries will be divided, but the news limits Green-Ellis' fantasy value to a low end No. 2 RB.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: Joins Bengals

The Bengals have agreed to terms with Green-Ellis on a three-year deal, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: As it stands, Green-Ellis, who rushed for 667 yards and 11 touchdowns with the Patriots last season, will head a backfield that also includes Bernard Scott and Brian Leonard. Green-Ellis, who is essentially replacing Cedric Benson, is not the flashiest runner, but he gets the tough yards and…read more

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: Visit With Bengals on Tap

Green-Ellis will visit the Bengals, Ian R. Rapoport of the Boston Herald reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis could still return to the Patriots for the right price, but he's a reliable back who never fumbles and he could be a solid replacement if the Bengals decide to move on from Cedric Benson.

Green-Ellis carried 10 times for 44 yards and caught two passes for 15 yards in Sunday's Super Bowl loss to the Giants.

Analysis: The steady but unspectacular Green-Ellis, who carried 181 times for 667 yards (3.7 yards per carry) with 11 TDs this past season, is headed for unrestricted free agency. He's never been the most dynamic back, but he runs hard and never fumbles (literally) so he could draw some solid interest from…read more

Green-Ellis (unspecified issue) was among the six Patriots not spotted at Thursday's practice, the Boston Globe reports.

Analysis: We suspect that resting the likes of Green-Ellis, Wes Welker and Tom Brady is simply giving the banged up veterans some maintenance time during the team's bye week. Heading into the playoffs, there's a decent chance that Stevan Ridley will get more carries than Green-Ellis, but Law Firm's ability…read more

Green-Ellis carried seven times for 22 yards with two touchdowns in Sunday's 49-21 win over the Bills. He also caught one pass for 53 yards.

Analysis: Stevan Ridley led the team in carries (15) again, but Green-Ellis appears entrenched as the Patriots' goal-line back heading into the playoffs. Green-Ellis has yet to fumble in his NFL career, which is probably why he is the one the team's coaches trust around the goal-line.

Green-Ellis (illness) carried three times for 10 yards in Saturday's win over the Dolphins.

Analysis: Stevan Ridley led the team in carries (13) again, as the team's committee approach continues to hamper Green-Ellis' fantasy upside.

Green-Ellis (illness) is listed as active for Saturday's game against the Dolphins.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has scored four TDs over his last four games, which has helped him maintain some value for his owners, but with just 21 carries for 50 yards in his last three contests, he's been a headache for those in yardage-heavy formats.

Green-Ellis (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Dolphins, the Patriots' official site reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis is among 15 players the Patriots chose to list as questionable this week, but his availability does not seem to be in much doubt. Still, the dubious questionable designation means that those planning to play him this week will want to verify his Week 16 status prior to kickoff (1:00 ET…read more

Green-Ellis (illness) returned to practice Thursday, Ian R. Rapoport of The Boson Herald reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has scored four TDs over his last four games, which has salvaged some value for his owners, but with just 21 carries for 50 yards in his last three outings, he's been a drain to those in yardage-heavy formats.

Green-Ellis missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness, the Patriots' official site reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis still has a couple of days to get healthy for Saturday's game against the Dolphins, but his upside has been limited of late by the Patriots' committee approach at running back.

Green-Ellis (undisclosed reason) was not at practice Wednesday, the Boston Herald reports.

Analysis: We'll have to see if this is related to the toe issue that Green-Ellis was dealing with earlier this season, or if this is a new ailment for the running back.

Green-Ellis carried 10 times for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Broncos. He also caught two passes for 32 yards.

Analysis: On a per-play basis, Stevan Ridley and Danny Woodhead were more effective than Green-Ellis in Week 15, but the TD saved the day for his fantasy owners.

Green-Ellis carried five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Redskins.

Analysis: Sunday's game turned into a bit of a shootout, which didn't exactly favor Green-Ellis' brand of power running. The Patriots close out their season with three games (at Denver in Week 15 and at home in Weeks 15 and 16) that are likely to be played in less-than-balmy conditions, which could get him…read more

Green-Ellis carried six times for 14 yards with a touchdown in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Colts.

Analysis: Green-Ellis' lack of carries were mostly a flow-of-the game deal, with his touchdown salvaging something for his owners in Week 13, at least.

Green-Ellis ran 14 times for 44 yards with a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Eagles.

Analysis: Green-Ellis, who now has seven touchdowns in 11 games, continues to lead the way in the Patriots' rushing attack. Week 12 brings the Colts, an 0-11 team that has had trouble stopping the run thus far.

Green-Ellis does not appear on the Patriots' official practice participation/injury report Wednesday.

Analysis: It looks like Green-Ellis' owners won't have to sweat out a dubious questionable designation this week, on the heels of his 20-carry workload in Week 11.

Green-Ellis carried 20 times for 81 yards and caught a pass for 25 yards in Monday's 34-3 win over the Chiefs.

Analysis: Shane Vereen and Danny Woodhead combined for 13 carries, but with QB Tom Brady attempting just 27 passes, Green-Ellis topped 17 carries for just the second time this season. Greeen-Ellis is now tied for 21st in the league with 541 rushing yards through 10 games.

Green-Ellis (toe) is active for Monday's game against Kansas City.

Analysis: Despite the questionable tag, it's no surprise that Green-Ellis is out there to lead the Patriots' running back committee Monday. The team's distribution of carries (with Danny Woodhead, Stevan Ridley and perhaps even Shane Vereen in the mix as well) of late has limited his fantasy reliability…read more

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: (Toe) Questionable For Monday

Green-Ellis (toe) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Kansas City, the Boston Herald reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis should be on the field Monday, but he's a risky fantasy option at this point given that two out of his last three games saw him total single-digit yardage from scrimmage.

Green-Ellis (toe) was listed as a limited participant at practice Friday, the Boston Globe reports.

Analysis: Whether the Patriots list Green-Ellis as questionable or probable Saturday, we expect that he'll be out there Monday night against the Chiefs.

Green-Ellis (toe) was limited at practice Thursday, the Boston Globe reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has been playing through his toe issue and with no setbacks reported, we expect that will continue Monday against the Chiefs.

Green-Ellis carried eight times for eight yards in Sunday's win over the Jets.

Analysis: Green-Ellis didn't find much room against the Jets Sunday, but with the passing game humming, he didn't need to be at his best. He has nowhere to go but up next Monday against the Chiefs.

Green-Ellis (toe) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Analysis: Green-Ellis is off some from his 2010 pace of 13 TDs and 1,008 yards, but he remains the lead back in the Pats' running back rotation, which helps him maintain some fantasy utility.

Green-Ellis (toe) was listed as a limited practice participant Friday, the Patriots' official site reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis is one of 10 players who the Patriots listed as questionable Friday, but there's been no indication that his Week 10 status is in any danger.

Green-Ellis (toe) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday, the Boston Globe reports.

Analysis: Green-Ellis, who has not scored in his last three contests, could well be listed as questionable come Friday, but he should be out there grinding it out Sunday night against the Jets, as usual, so he's really closer to probable.

Green-Ellis (toe) was limited in practice Wednesday according to Patriots.com.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has been dealing with this toe injury for much of the season and the limited practices aren't much cause for concern. He should be ready for Sunday against the Jets.

Green-Ellis (toe) had a team-high 12 carries for 52 yards in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

Analysis: Tom Brady attempted 49 passes, so they didn't lean on the running game too much. Meanwhile, Danny Woodhead and Steven Ridley combined for just 36 yards on 10 carries with Kevin Faulk (knee) inactive.

Green-Ellis (toe) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Analysis: Good news: the Giants have the league's 28th-ranked run defense. Better news: Kevin Faulk is inactive, meaning Green Ellis should get the bulk of the touches.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis: (Toe) Officially Listed As Questionable

Green-Ellis, limited in practice all week with a toe injury, is listed as questionable in the official injury report.

Analysis: Green-Ellis has been playing through this injury for about a month now and he should be able to play through it again Sunday. However, Kevin Faulk's return means Green-Ellis could be splitting carries as opposed to filling the feature back role.

Green-Ellis (toe) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, the Boston Globe reports.

Analysis: He'll be available Sunday, but thanks to the return of Kevin Faulk, his workload is subject to even more uncertainty than it was previously.
