Brian Hoyer QB | LV
Texans' Brian Hoyer: Will not return Monday due to a Concussion
Hoyer will not return to Monday's game against the Bengals due to a concussion, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Hoyer had completed 12 of 22 passes for 123 yards and an interception before getting knocked out of the game in the third quarter with a head injury. He has since been diagnosed with a concussion. His status for Sunday's tilt versus the Jets is up in the air, as he will need to pass the team's concussion protocol. T.J. Yates replaced Hoyer under center.

Case Keenum QB | CHI
Rams' Case Keenum: Named Rams starting QB
Keenum was named the Rams' starting quarterback Monday over Nick Foles.
In a passing league, Foles' performance has been dismal in his first campaign with the Rams. He's only reached 200 yards through the air twice in nine games, while completing 56.6 percent of his passes with seven touchdowns versus six interceptions. Meanwhile, Keenum has a 2-8 record as a starter, but head coach Jeff Fisher will hope that the change will light a spark under a dismal offense outside of Todd Gurley.

Trevor Siemian QB | ATL
Broncos' Trevor Siemian: Will be Week 11 backup
Siemian will be the backup quarterback in Week 11 against the Bears, head coach Gary Kubiak announced Monday.
Siemian will be in uniform Sunday as Brock Osweiler gets his first start of the season in place of Peyton Manning, who will not play because of a torn plantar fascia in his right foot. Osweiler has long been considered the quarterback of the future in Denver, so while Siemian is one step closer to playing he has no chance of competing for the starting job if Osweiler avoids injury.

Sam Bradford QB | MIN
Eagles' Sam Bradford: Expected to miss Week 11
Bradford (shoulder) is expected to miss Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports.
Bradford was battered during Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, suffering both a concussion and a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder. Given the extent of those injuries, Sunday's upcoming game against the Buccaneers is thought to come too soon for Bradford to be healthy enough to play. While confirmation of Bradford's expected absence will still be needed, Mark Sanchez seems likely to lead Philadelphia's offense in Week 11.

Russell Wilson QB | NYG
Seahawks' Russell Wilson: Mediocre in loss
Wilson completed 14 of 32 passes for 240 yards, with a touchdown and an interception in Sunday's 39-32 loss to the Cardinals. He added six carries for 52 yards.
Wilson didn't get much help from his teammates besides Doug Baldwin, who caught seven passes for 134 yards and a touchdown. The Seattle offense otherwise struggled, partially because Wilson was inaccurate. He did pad his rushing stats in garbage time, but he still doesn't have a rushing touchdown this season and has just 10 passing touchdowns in nine game. Drafted by most to be an every-week starter, Wilson is now a borderline option in many formats, and he probably won't have much volume in a Week 11 home game against the 49ers.

Matthew Stafford QB | LAR
Lions' Matthew Stafford: Tosses two touchdowns against Green Bay
Stafford competed 24 of 38 passes for 242 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's win over Green Bay. He also recorded a fumble during the contest.
Stafford delivered a pair of touchdowns on quick slants in the end zone by Brandon Pettigrew and Lance Moore. The Lions' offense still fails to show the the ability to push the ball down field, the team's lone play of over 20 yards on Sunday coming on a 43-yard catch and run by Golden Tate late in the 4th quarter, but Sunday can be seen as a step in the right direction as Stafford was kept clean after being sacked 13 times in the team's previous two contests. Stafford is likely not worth a pickup unless a team's regular quarterback is on a bye, as turnovers continue to be an issue as he has gone just two games this season without at least one. Stafford also faces a ton of pressure to produce without a bonafide running attack to lean on.

Derek Carr QB | NO
Raiders' Derek Carr: Throws for 302 yards and two touchdowns at Oakland
Carr completed 29-of-43 passes for 302 yards, with two touchdowns and pair of interceptions, in Sunday's 30-14 loss to Minnesota. He also ran two times for 12 yards.
Carr had solid statistical game, but couldn't come up with a big play in a crucial moment, throwing an end zone interception late in the game with the Vikings trailing by nine points. He had a shot for a garbage touchdown in the final minute, but was unable to covert from the red zone. Despite the loss, it's been a productive season for the second-year signal caller, and he'll look to get back on track next week in a favorable matchup at Detroit.

Ryan Tannehill QB | TEN
Dolphins' Ryan Tannehill: Throws two TDs in win
Tannehill completed 21 of 36 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Eagles. He was also sacked four times for a loss of 27 yards, including once in the end zone that resulted in a safety.
Tannehill connected with six different players, throwing his touchdowns to running back Lamar Miller and wideout Jarvis Landry. His one to Landry was incredibly lucky, as it was tipped at the line near the end zone and somehow landed in Landry's hands despite being in the air for quite some time. Tannehill snapped a two-game streak with no touchdowns, as he threw for at least two for the sixth time this season. Up next is a Week 11 home game against the Cowboys.

Kirk Cousins QB | LV
Redskins' Kirk Cousins: Earns perfect QB rating in rout of Saints
Cousins completed 20 of 25 passes for 324 yards and four touchdowns Sunday against the Saints, earning a perfect 158.3 quarterback rating.
Facing off against one of the league's worst pass defenses, Cousins absolutely shredded the Saints, connecting with nine different players and throwing touchdown passes to tight end Jordan Reed (two), running back Matt Jones and wide receiver Jamison Crowder. It was just his second game all season with more than one touchdown pass, though he's been particularly good of late, averaging 286 yards per game over the last three and scoring nine touchdowns over that span (including one rushing score). However, things should get much tougher in Week 11, as the Redskins travel to Carolina to take on a Panthers defense that is allowing only 5.5 YPA this season, second-best in the league.
