Lawrence completed 14 of 33 passes for 118 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions during Sunday's 23-13 loss to Denver. He added two carries for 21 yards.

Lawrence threw three picks in his NFL debut last week but still flashed his potential with three scores, and there were significantly fewer positives in Week 2 while he completed only 42 percent of his passes. The 21-year-old connected with Marvin Jones for a 25-yard touchdown to finish an 83-yard drive to open the game, but Denver stifled Lawrence and the rest of the offense for the remainder of the contest -- Jamal Agnew scored Jacksonville's other touchdown on a kickoff return. Lawrence may need to show that he's settled in a bit before qualifying as a more viable fantasy option heading into a Week 3 matchup with the Cardinals.

Stafford completed 19 of 30 passes for 278 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the Rams' 27-24 win over the Colts on Sunday. He also rushed twice for one yard.

While the numbers may not have been as pretty as during a Week 1 shellacking of the Bears, Stafford still looked in complete command of his new team's offense and particularly was impressive considering the caliber of opponent and tough road environment. Stafford focused heavily on his pair of starting wideouts when dropping back, with 14 of his 19 completions going to Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods, and the former bringing in both of his scoring tosses. The veteran gunslinger could hardly have asked for a better start to his Rams career, but he'll face his stiffest test yet in a Week 3 home battle against the Buccaneers.

Fields completed six of 13 passes for 60 yards with an interception while adding 10 rushes for 31 yards in the Bears' 20-17 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

After Andy Dalton left with a first-half knee injury, Fields finished the game, but he fumbled a ball that he fortunately recovered and later threw an interception that gave the Bengals a chance to make a late comeback. Should Dalton miss time, Fields will have fantasy upside because of his running ability, though it may take him time to develop as a passer.

Dalton (knee) has been downgraded to doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Bengals, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

Dalton was originally considered questionable to return, but it now appears his day has come to an early end. Justin Fields will handle the duties under center the rest of the day barring an unexpected change in Dalton's status.

Trask (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Falcons, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers official website reports.

Trask isn't active for Week 2 as the Buccaneers elected to keep Blaine Gabbert as the backup behind Tom Brady. The 23-year-old showed promise in his final preseason action after a relatively rough first two games.

Taylor was forced out of Sunday's game against the Browns with a hamstring injury.

With Taylor out of the contest, rookie Davis Mills has taken over at QB for the Texans. Prior to his exit, Taylor completed 10 of 11 pass attempts for 125 yards and a TD and ran once for a 15-yard score.

Tagovailoa suffered bruised ribs during Sunday's game against the Bills, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

Per the report, X-rays on Tagovailoa's ribs came back negative, but the QB is dealing with some pain and is slated to undergo an MRI on Monday. In his absence, Jacoby Brissett is handling the Dolphins' QB duties. If Tagovailoa's Week 3 status is impacted by Sunday's injury, Reid Sinnett is a candidate to be promoted from Miami's practice squad.

Dalton (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Bengals, Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Dalton came up lame the end of a 14-yard scramble early in the second quarter and left the game for the rest of that possession. He returned on the next drive but went to the locker room thereafter, when he was diagnosed with a knee injury. If he's unable to return, Dalton will finish Week 2 having completed nine of 10 passes for 56 yards and one TD to go with two carries for 25 yards. Justin Fields took over under center for Dalton.

Tagovailoa was forced out of Sunday's game against the Bills with a rib injury.

With Tagovailoa now sidelined, Jacoby Brissett has taken over at QB for the Dolphins. Prior to his exit, Tagovailoa was 1-for-4 for 13 yards.

Tagovailoa (undisclosed) was carted to the locker room during Sunday's game versus the Bills, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

On the Dolphins' second possession of the contest, Tagovailoa took a hard hit while attempting a pass on fourth down, per Wolfe. Tagovailoa made an attempt to get to the sideline but didn't make it before a cart was called to the field. As long as Tagovailoa is sidelined, Jacoby Brissett will be under center for Miami.
