Plodding along
Gore carried 11 times for 27 yards and caught one of two targets for 18 yards during Sunday's victory over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Devin Singletary -- who has passed Gore on the depth chart -- saw 15 carries Sunday to Gore's 11. The latter hasn't averaged better than 3.8 yards per carry over the last four games, and hasn't seen the end zone since Week 3. With bye weeks just about over throughout the league, Gore doesn't hold much value even if he does serve as a decent senior leader and change-of-pace option for the Bills.

Back seat to Singletary
Gore carried five times for just 12 yards and caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's loss to the Browns.
Analysis: The 36-year-old is still part of the weekly game plan, but he's not hitting the holes like he was earlier in the season and rookie Devin Singletary (eight carries for 42 yards and three catches Sunday) clearly has the bigger spark. Gore was fantasy useable earlier this season with Singletary sidelined with a hamstring injury, but that time seems to have passed and the former seems resigned to a change-of-pace role the rest of the way. Perhaps the Bills will use Gore around the goal line, but…read more

Shut down by Washington front seven
Gore managed only 15 yards on 11 carries and did not record a reception during Sunday's 24-9 win against the Redskins.
Analysis: Prior to Week 9, Gore had garnered an average of 7.5 more carries per game than Devin Singletary in four contests in which both running backs were active. The script was completely flipped Sunday, however, as Singletary peeled off gains of seven, nine, 17 and 49 yards in the first half, and apparently convinced the coaching staff to stay with the hot hand -- fielding 14 touches to Gore's four during the second half. Upcoming in Week 10, Gore and Singletary will split carries against a Cleveland…read more

Quiet in Week 8 loss
Gore rushed nine times for 34 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Gore got nine rushing attempts to Devin Singletary's three, but Singletary scored a receiving touchdown and both players were out-rushed by quarterback Josh Allen, who carried the ball eight times for 45 yards. Allen's always a threat to vulture a short touchdown and Singletary is the more explosive Bills running back, so volume is the only thing keeping Gore relevant, and that goes out the window in games like this one when the Bills fall behind.

Compiles 66 total yards
Gore rushed 11 times for 55 yards and secured his only target for 11 yards in the Bills' 31-21 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: Facing the team he'd spent 2018 with, Gore had a rather modest performance overall. The veteran back didn't see as high of a workload as may have been projected pregame, as the Dolphins were a lot more competitive than anticipated, and rookie Devin Singletary also vultured seven carries overall. Gore does continue to demonstrate impressive efficiency, as he's now averaged 5.0 yards per carry or more in three of the last four contests. Gore will look to put together another productive effort in…read more

Singletary to return
Gore's teammate Devin Singletary (hamstring) practiced fully all week and is expected to play Sunday against the Dolphins.
Analysis: While it's true Singletary adds a dimension Gore lost years ago and the Bills will give the rookie his share of touches, Gore's rushing attempts have been managed at between 11 and 19 every single game without notable variance whether Singletary has been in the lineup or not. Singletary's future usage is certainly worth monitoring for Gore owners -- much more than reserve back T.J. Yeldon -- but for Week 7 the veteran Gore still seems like a pretty sturdy play. The Dolphins yield the second…read more

Gains 69 yards
Gore ran for 60 yards on 14 carries and added nine yards on two catches during Sunday's 14-7 win over Tennessee.
Analysis: Even without rookie Devin Singletary (hamstring), Gore put together his lowest yardage total since Week 1 against a fairly stout Titans defense. Coming into Sunday, Gore had at least 80 yards in three consecutive games. Look for him to make it four times in five games as Buffalo's Week 7 opponent, Miami, has surrendered a NFL-high 175.8 rushing yards per game.

No Singletary vs. Titans
Gore's teammate Devin Singletary has been ruled out of the Week 5 contest against the Titans due to a lingering hamstring injury.
Analysis: The rookie has been practicing and tested the injury out pregame, but the Bills ultimately decided he wasn't ready. With a bye coming up Week 6, they'll play it safe and sit Singletary for one more week. That means Gore will have most of the carries to himself Sunday, with T.J. Yeldon picking up just a few to go with his passing-game role.

Week 5 workload still in limbo
Gore's teammate Devin Singletary is listed as questionable with a hamstring injury for Sunday's game in Tennessee.
Analysis: Singletary's status is a true game-time decision. The rookie has missed the last two games, but was close to playing last week and practiced on a limited basis each day this week. Gore saw his lowest number of rushing attempts (11) in the one game Singletary completed, while he averaged 16.7 carries per game over the last three contests. Gore's value is a good deal higher if his teammate is out of the lineup Sunday, as T.J. Yeldon doesn't pose much of a threat as a rusher and is more of a…read more

Fourth man to rush for 15,000 yards
Gore rushed 17 times for 109 yards and failed to haul in his lone target in Sunday's 16-10 loss to New England.
Analysis: Gore became the fourth player in NFL history to eclipse 15,000 career rushing yards, breaking off a few long runs to pace Buffalo's offense while the passing game struggled. He was stopped at the 1-yard line twice on the Bills' lone touchdown drive before watching quarterback Josh Allen take it in himself on fourth down. Allen later left the game with a concussion, muddying the waters even further for an offense that's already missing rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring). Gore…read more

Set to lead Week 4 backfield
With Devin Singletary (hamstring) inactive, Gore is once again in line to head the Bills' rushing attack Sunday against the Patriots.
Analysis: T.J. Yeldon is on hand to work in a complementary role, but Gore will be the team's lead back Sunday. He'll have his work cut out for him in Week 4, however, with the Patriots defense having allowed an average of just 36.7 rushing yards per game three weeks into the season.

Likely set for another lead role
Gore is likely to serve as the Bills' lead option on the ground Sunday against the Patriots with Devin Singletary (hamstring) expected to sit out, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Singletary closed the week with limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday to garner a questionable designation heading into Sunday, but the Bills are apparently inclined to withhold the rookie from action for another game while he remains hobbled by the hamstring injury. Assuming Singletary is inactive for the contest, Gore and T.J. Yeldon would be the team's only available backs, with the latter likely to handle the majority of the work on passing downs.

Scores winning TD
Gore rushed 14 times for 76 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Gore got 16 touches to T.J. Yeldon's 10 while promising rookie running back Devin Singletary sat out due to a hamstring injury. The veteran running back's one-yard touchdown with 1:50 left in the fourth quarter turned a 17-14 deficit into a 21-17 lead that Buffalo wouldn't relinquish. Gore has enjoyed solid volume with the 3-0 Bills often playing from ahead thus far, but that could change when the 3-0 Patriots come to town in Week 4.

On track for Week 3 start
Gore is expected to start and receive "significant carries" with Devin Singletary (hamstring) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Singletary's absence leaves Gore and T.J. Yeldon as the lone healthy running backs on the roster. Yeldon is expected to see most of his involvement on passing downs, leaving Gore to draw the bulk of the snaps on early downs and third- or fourth-and-short situations. The arrangement makes Gore a less appealing commodity in PPR formats, but the promise of a healthy workload on the ground -- should the game flow allow for it -- has the 36-year-old's overall fantasy stock on the rise.

Should benefit with Singletary out
Gore's teammate Devin Singletary (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Cincinnati.
Analysis: Gore joined the Bills amid a crowded backfield, but he's quickly won over the coaching staff as a strong locker room presence. Now LeSean McCoy is playing elsewhere and the biggest remaining threat to Gore's workload is injured. T.J. Yeldon will pick up some extra work this weekend -- namely in the passing game -- but if the favored Bills control this game early, Gore could be looking at a 20-plus-carry outing.

Heavier workload?
Gore's teammate Devin Singletary is not practicing for a second straight day Thursday.
Analysis: Gore and T.J. Yeldon would be in store for higher workloads Sunday against the Bengals if the exciting rookie can't go, so Gore owners should clearly be following Singletary's status from here. The 36-year-old has posted a plodding-but-somewhat-valuable 30-83-1 line in the running game through two contest while adding two catches for 15 yards. It's not going to be pretty for Gore at this stage of his career, but the volume may be there for at least one more week, something that can be useful…read more

Handles heavy load in Week 2 win
Gore rushed 19 times for 68 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 28-14 win over the Giants.
Analysis: After watching quarterback Josh Allen and rookie Devin Singletary both score rushing touchdowns in the first half, Gore converted a one-yard rushing touchdown of his own in the fourth quarter. Singletary exited with a hamstring injury, which could slow his bid to cut into Gore's workload moving forward. The most appealing aspect of Gore's fantasy profile is his volume, as the 36-year-old running back is averaging a paltry 2.9 yards per carry through two games.

Coach affirms role
Coach Sean McDermott stated Wednesday that Gore remains the team's top running back on the depth chart, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports. "Frank Gore and then we bring in Devin [Singletary] and then we bring in TJ [Yeldon]," McDermott said, when asked about the team's starting running back.
Analysis: Gore better get going if he wants to keep that spot, as he rushed 11 times for just 20 yards in the Week 1 win over the Jets, while the flashy rookie Singletary carried four times for 70 yards. The 36-year-old hasn't scored a rushing touchdown since Week 12 of the 2017 season despite relatively good health. Singletary is clearly the back to own in this offense, and it may only be a matter of time before McDermott changes his tune in his pressers. For now at least, there's modest value for Gore…read more

Soundly outplayed by Singletary
Gore rushed 11 times for 20 yards but wasn't targeted in the passing game in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Gore got 11 carries to Devin Singletary's four, but Singletary gained 70 yards on the ground to Gore's 20. With a subpar offensive line in front of him and a much more explosive running back 14 years his junior battling him for touches, the 36-year-old Gore will have a hard time carving out much fantasy value in Week 2 against the Giants or beyond.

Listed atop posted depth chart
The Bills' posted running back depth chart lists Gore ahead of Devin Singletary and T.J. Yeldon.
Analysis: Per the team's official site, the Bills plan to "feature a rotation of Singletary, Gore and Yeldon out of the backfield this season." The fact that in such a committee arrangement Gore gets top billing on paper is presumably tied to his status as an experienced and respected veteran back. In terms of upside, however, Singletary -- the No. 74 overall pick in April's draft -- has the edge. Meanwhile, Yeldon profiles as a capable change-of-pace/complementary option to round out the team's…read more

Likely complementary piece
Gore is expected to be a complementary piece to Devin Singletary after the release of LeSean McCoy on Saturday, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Bills backfield is still very much in flux, with Singletary, Gore and even T.J. Yeldon expected to receive at least some carries each game. Who ends up wrestling away the largest carry share is anyone's guess, but at the very least the 21-year-old Singletary figures to gain control of the role throughout the season especially given the fact Gore will be 37 by the start of the next offseason. Still, the grizzled veteran surprised many last season with his highest yards-per-carry figure (4.6)…read more

Gashes Lions
Gore ran for 57 yards on eight carries during Friday's 24-20 win over Detroit.
Analysis: Gore's biggest run came at the top of the second quarter in which he slashed up the left side of the line and gained 27 yards, a gain that was supplemented by a personal foul penalty. It was -- so far -- Gore's biggest showing for the Bills. The veteran back figures to be in a packed backfield with the likes of Shady McCoy and T.J. Yeldon, but clearly has enough left in the tank to be effective in an offense that will likely be predicated on pounding the ball and letting sophomore Josh Allen…read more

To run with starters Thursday
Coach Sean McDermott plans to start Gore for the first preseason game Thursday against the Colts, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. Said McDermott, "What we're going to do is give Frank most of the work this week and then what we will do with LeSean (McCoy) is give him most of the work, at this point the plan is the following week. Part of that is we know LeSean a little bit. This is our first time around Frank."
Analysis: We wouldn't read too much into this, as McCoy is the top dog and needs to be managed carefully heading into the season, while the same goes for the 36-year-old Gore, for that matter. Gore's time with the starters will be worth watching, however, as a strong preseason would make him the clear No. 2 heading into the regular season, as rookie Devin Singletary seems to be coming on strong. Plus, there's still a remote chance the Bills could cut ties with McCoy and his expensive salary.

The 36-year-old logged 156 rushes for 722 yards (4.6 YPC) with the Dolphins last season before missing the final two games of the year with a foot injury.

Challenge for carries
Gore, signed by the Bills as a free agent in March, is part of a crowded running back corps after the team signed veteran T. J. Yeldon in April, then drafted Devin Singletary in the third round of the 2019 draft.
Analysis: Gore still sits as the clear-cut No. 2 behind LeSean McCoy given that Yeldon was brought in more for his receiving ability and Singletary is unproven at the pro level, but these developments certainly crowd things up. We'll also mention Gore turns 36 this week.

Clear-cut No. 2?
The Bills cut Chris Ivory this week, leaving Gore in better position to be the main backup to starter LeSean McCoy.
Analysis: Gore and Ivory are somewhat similar at this stage of their careers, so there was only need for one and the Bills went with the soon-to-be 36-year-old. We'll see if the team brings in another running back through the draft, but for now Gore seems locked into that No. 2 role, with the unproven Marcus Murphy being the only threat to his expected workload.

Dolphins running backs coach Eric Studesville doesn't know if Gore (foot) will be offered another contract, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports. "The biggest thing with Frank is let's get Frank healthy and then we will cross all those other bridges," Studesville said.

Analysis: With Gore -- who led the Dolphins with 722 rushing yards on 156 carries through 14 games -- now out for the season, the profile of rookie Kalen Ballage in the Miami offense is set to expand down the stretch. Like Gore before him, Ballage is expected to handle most of the early down work while Kenyan Drake offers a change-of-pace option and picks up the bulk of the snaps on passing downs.

Analysis: X-rays have already ruled out a fracture, but that doesn't necessarily mean the 35-year-old running back avoided a serious injury. Gore was initially diagnosed with a foot sprain, hobbling out of the locker room with a walking boot over his left foot after Sunday's 41-17 loss in Minnesota. Rookie fourth-round pick Kalen Ballage took advantage with 12 carries for 123 yards, including a 75-yard touchdown to pull Miami within four points early in the third quarter. With Gore looking unlikely to…read more

Spotted in walking boot
Gore was spotted leaving the Dolphins' locker room Sunday with his left foot in a walking boot, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Prior to his exit from the Dolphins' 41-17 loss to the Vikings, Gore carried five times for 14 yards. With his Week 16 status up in the air, Kalen Ballage -- who led Miami on Sunday with 12 carries for 123 yards (highlighted by 75-yard TD run) -- is worth a speculative add. Kenyan Drake, who had been splitting backfield work with Gore, carried just once in the contest for six yards and caught all three of his targets for 28 yards.

Suffers sprained foot
Gore was forced out of Sunday's game against the Vikings with a foot sprain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: On the plus side, X-rays on Gore's foot were negative, but his status for next Sunday's game against the Jaguars is unclear. In his absence, Kalen Ballage's profile in the offense has a chance to expand, while Kenyan Drake remains on hand to see his share of Miami's backfield work, with Brandon Bolden in reserve.

Exits game with ankle injury
Gore was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Vikings after suffering an ankle injury, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Gore is a tough player, but we'd be surprised if he was able to re-enter the contest. In his absence, added touches in the Miami backfield are available for Kenyan Drake and Kalen Ballage.

Totals 116 scrimmage yards
Gore rushed 12 times for 92 yards and caught his lone target for 24 yards in Sunday's win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Sunday was a productive afternoon for the Dolphins backfield, as No. 3 running back Brandon Bolden had two carries for 60 yards and two touchdowns, while Kenyan Drake added 79 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on the "Miami Miracle" lateral. Gore continues to produce in his limited role and now has 708 rushing yards and a 4.7 YPC through 13 games. The 35-year-old's lack of touchdowns -- his lone score came as a receiver Week 4 -- and Miami's backfield split make him difficult to rely on as a…read more

Quiet in win
Gore rushed eight times for 21 yards and brought in his only target for 10 yards during Sunday's 21-17 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Gore received less snaps (20) than fellow running back Kenyan Drake (30), and saw his lowest amount of carries in a single game since Week 3. The veteran's 31 total yards are close to his floor in Miami, so it's reasonable to expect that Gore will bounce back against the Patriots on Sunday. Gore is worth considering as a flex option for fantasy purposes.

Produces 77 scrimmage yards
Gore carried 14 times for 67 yards and caught one pass for an additional 10 yards during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Gore led the team in carries and touches, churning out a respectable 77 scrimmage yards against a solid Indianapolis defense. He was coming off one of his best efforts of the season in Week 10 and has now produced 179 scrimmage yards over the last two games. The veteran is still without a rushing touchdown this season, but he seems to be picking up steam in recent weeks. Gore could be even more involved next Sunday against the Bills if backfield mate Kenyan Drake (shoulder) is limited by an…read more

Totals 102 scrimmage yards
Gore carried 13 times for 90 yards and caught two passes for an additional 12 yards during Sunday's 31-12 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Gore enjoyed a strong day on the ground, averaging 6.9 yards per carry against a respectable Green Bay front. He touched the ball 15 times to Kenyan Drake's 10 and was much more effective with his opportunities. Gore averaged just 3.2 yards per carry on 42 totes over the previous three games, so this was a nice bounce-back effort for the veteran. He'll enjoy a much-needed bye before taking on the Colts in Week 12.

Receives 21 touches in win over Jets
Gore carried 20 times for 53 yards and caught one pass for an additional six yards during Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Gore received 20 carries for the first time this season, but some treacherous field conditions and a matchup with a respectable Jets front limited him to 2.7 yards per carry. He was a virtual non-factor in the passing game once again and finished with an underwhelming day despite the hefty workload. Even when Gore does receive the majority of the work over Kenyan Drake in a given week, the results have varied from game to game. This should remain the case next Sunday against the Packers.
