Colt McCoy QB | ARI
Cardinals' Colt McCoy: Injury is to pectoral
Coach Kliff Kingsbury clarified after Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Panthers that McCoy left the game due to a pectoral injury, Kent Somers of The Arizona Republic reports.
The severity of McCoy's injury is yet to be determined, but the quarterback was unable to come back into the game after initially being deemed questionable to return. If neither McCoy nor Kyler Murray (ankle) are ready to return to action against the Seahawks in Week 11, the Cardinals will presumably turn to Chris Streveler, who replaced McCoy against Carolina.

Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT
Packers' Aaron Rodgers: Quiet but sufficient in return
Rodgers completed 23 of 37 pass attempts for 292 yards and one interception against Seattle on Sunday.
Rodgers dealt with a couple untimely drops and seemed to have trouble getting on the same page with some pass catchers -- tight end Josiah Deguara in particular -- but fortunately for the Packers, the opposing quarterback (Russell Wilson) was wildly ineffective and Green Bay was able to eventually lean on its AJ Dillon-led run game to secure the win. Rodgers will need to be sharper at Minnesota in Week 11.

Russell Wilson QB | NYG
Seahawks' Russell Wilson: Major struggles in return
Wilson (finger) completed 20 of 40 pass attempts for 161 yards and two interceptions and scrambled five times for 32 yards Sunday in the Seahawks' 17-0 loss to the Packers.
Back after a three-game absence, Wilson was almost certainly limited by the surgically repaired middle finger on his throwing hand, as his return occurred more quickly than the initial injury prognosis considered possible. When fully healthy, Wilson is certainly capable of delivering a better performance, especially against a Green Bay secondary without its best corner in Jaire Alexander (shoulder). Wilson missed throws he usually doesn't, and almost every rep was ugly in some way or another. The Arizona defense is more dangerous than Green Bay's, so Wilson will hope to shake the rust before the Week 11 contest.

Trevor Siemian QB | ATL
Saints' Trevor Siemian: Tosses two touchdowns
Siemian completed 19 of 34 passes for 298 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Titans.
Siemian drew his second consecutive start and had his best showing of the season. He averaged 8.8 yards per attempt, in large part thanks to completing six passes of 20 yards or more. Siemian also threw for multiple touchdowns for the second consecutive game, as he connected with Tre'Quan Smith and Marquez Callaway for scores of 11 and 15 yards, respectively. Despite some chatter of Taysom Hill seeing an increased role, he earned only two pass attempts, which allowed Siemian to top 30 pass attempts for the first time on the campaign. Based on this effort, Siemian can be expected to remain the starter in Week 11 against Philadelphia.

Jared Goff QB | DET
Lions' Jared Goff: Struggles through rib injury
Goff completed 14 of 25 passes for 114 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 16-16 tie against Pittsburgh.
The Lions prioritized their rushing attack, totaling 39 attempts on the ground as opposed to only 25 for passes for Goff. In part, that could have been due to game script, though Goff was also reportedly battling a rib injury, according to Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Even when he took to the air, Goff was far from spectacular by averaging only 4.6 yards per attempt, and he also failed to throw for a touchdown for the fifth time in his last seven games. As a result, there's not much reason for optimism heading into a Week 11 matchup against Cleveland.

Colt McCoy QB | ARI
Cardinals' Colt McCoy: Sustains chest injury
McCoy suffered a chest injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game versus the Panthers.
McCoy got banged up on a sack and had to yield the offense to fellow reserve Chris Streveler with Kyler Murray (ankle) missing his second consecutive contest. Prior to his exit, McCoy completed 11 of 20 passes for 107 yards and one interception and had one carry for minus-1 yard.

Taylor Heinicke QB | LAC
Football Team's Taylor Heinicke: Atones for January playoff loss
Heinicke completed 26 of 32 passes for 256 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions and added 15 yards on three rushes in Washington's 29-19 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Heinicke turned in a razor-sharp performance in a rematch against the team that had ousted him and his teammates from last season's postseason, connecting on a season-high 81.3 percent of his throws and staying free of turnovers altogether. The 28-year-old's interception-less performance was his first since Week 4, and he helped seal the upset victory with several key completions during a marathon 19-play touchdown drive that took up 10:26 of the fourth quarter. Heinicke's quest to follow up a season-best effort will unfold in a Week 11 road date against a tough Panthers secondary.

Trevor Lawrence QB | JAC
Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Struggles with accuracy in loss
Lawrence completed 16 of 35 passes for 162 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed five times for 33 yards in the Jaguars' 23-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday. He also lost a fumble with 50 seconds remaining.
Lawrence averaged just 4.6 yards per attempt and completed less than 50.0 percent of his throws for the first time since Week 2 and only his second time as a pro. The first overall pick's fumble on a strip sack at the Colts' 47-yard line with less than 50 seconds left sealed another loss for Jacksonville, ending the game on a particularly sour note. The rookie also threw for under 200 yards and went without a touchdown or interception for the second straight contest, leaving his fantasy managers in a lurch. He continued to struggle connecting with his wideouts as well, as nine of his completions went to tight end Dan Arnold and running back James Robinson. Lawrence's next opportunity to rectify the various wrongs come in a Week 11 home matchup against the 49ers.

Ryan Tannehill QB | TEN
Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Manages Titans to win
Tannehill completed 19 of 27 pass attempts for 213 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Saints. He added five rushes for one yard and a touchdown.
Tannehill didn't lead the Titans' to their most effective offensive performance, though he did manage to turn in his first effort without a turnover since Week 5. His lone passing score of the game came early in the third quarter on a two-yard pass to MyCole Pruitt. Tannehill also chipped in a one-yard rushing touchdown, the fourth time in his last five games that he's found the end zone with his legs. Tannehill should be in for an easier matchup as Tennessee takes on Houston in Week 11.

Case Keenum QB | CHI
Browns' Case Keenum: Plays in blowout loss
Keenum completed eight of 12 pass attempts for 81 yards against New England on Sunday.
Keenum stepped in for Baker Mayfield (knee/shoulder) in the third quarter and mopped up in the blowout loss. It's believed that Mayfield could have kept playing if the game hadn't been so lopsided, so Mayfield is expected to start against Detroit in Week 11.
