Wilson completed 33 of 49 passes for 263 yards without a touchdown or interception in Monday's 27-6 loss to the Chargers. He added two rushing attempts for seven yards and fumbled three times, losing two.

Wilson struggled but didn't get any help from the rest of New York's offense, which has produced just three touchdowns in the last four games. He was sacked eight times behind an unsuccessfully rejiggered offensive line, and numerous drops and penalties didn't help matters. While a significant chunk of Wilson's yardage came with the game out of reach in the fourth quarter, he should have at least had a late touchdown, but C.J. Uzomah dropped a ball that hit him in the chest in the end zone. Coming off this hollow season high in passing yards, Wilson will bring a 5:5 TD:INT into a Week 10 road game in Vegas.

Herbert completed just 16 of his 30 pass attempts for 136 yards. He didn't record a touchdown or an interception in Monday's 27-6 win over the Jets.

New York's offense hardly threatened at any point in this contest, so Herbert and the Chargers were content to not risk any big plays. Only Keenan Allen (8-9-77) really did much of anything, and most of that came late in the second half as the team was positioning itself for the merciful dagger to an ugly overall game. Hopefully Week 10's quality matchup against the Lions will yield more production.

Winn was reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Winn was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's Week 9 loss to Green Bay, but he didn't get into the game. The 24-year-old out of UT Martin served as the backup to Brett Rypien in that contest with Matthew Stafford out with an injured thumb. The Rams are on bye this week, but if Stafford still isn't able to play Week 11 versus Seattle, Winn could get another chance to make his NFL debut in that matchup.

Driskel reverted to Arizona's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Driskel took a back seat to rookie fifth-rounder Clayton Tune in Week 9 at Cleveland. With Kyler Murray (knee) on track to return in Week 10, it's not clear if Driskel has any more elevations in his immediate future.

Rodgers (Achilles) was spotted throwing prior to Monday's game against the Chargers.

As he's done before, Rodgers made a handful of pre-game tosses, only this time he was doing so after taking three-step drops, per Judy Battista of NFL Network. Rodgers also made some 50-yard throws, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. During his weekly appearance on The Pat McAfee Show last Tuesday, Rodgers said that he hasn't started jogging yet, but he's able to walk without discomfort as he continues to push ahead of schedule in his recovery from Achilles surgery. There does seem to be a slight chance that Rodgers will be able to play again this season, but he's also admitted that the Jets need to be in the mix for the playoffs for a 2023 return to make sense. In the meantime, Zach Wilson will continue to lead New York's offense.

Coach Sean McVay sounded optimistic Monday that Stafford (thumb) will be back after the Rams' bye week, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com.

With Stafford inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers, Brett Rypien drew the start at QB in his place, but with the benefit of a Week 10 bye, it appears as though the Rams are hopeful Stafford will miss only one game due to an ulnar collateral ligament sprain in his right thumb, per ESPN.com. The team hosts Seattle on Sunday, Nov. 19, and more context regarding Stafford's Week 11 status will arrive once the the Rams resume practicing ahead of that contest.

Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said that Murray (knee) will start Sunday's game against the Falcons if the quarterback fares well while taking first-team reps in practice this week, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Gannon added that the Cardinals will formally add Murray back to the 53-man roster Wednesday, when his 21-day evaluation window for a return from the reserve/PUP list will come to a close. He'll then step back on the practice field later that day, working with the first-team offense after he had previously been throwing passes to members of the practice squad for most of the past two weeks. Expect Gannon to announce an official decision on a Week 10 starter following Friday's practice, but Murray hasn't hit any snags in his recovery from a torn ACL since he resumed working out with Arizona and should be ready to hit the ground running this weekend. Given that Murray will be returning from major knee surgery, however, it's possible that the Cardinals exercise some caution with the dual-threat quarterback's workload as a rusher compared to previous seasons.

Mullens could be designated to return from IR this week according to head coach Kevin O'Connell, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Mullens will have a 21-day window to practice with the team before needing to be added to the active roster if he is designated to return. However, O'Connell is not certain they'll open that window this week. Either way, Joshua Dobbs will likely get the start in Week 10 against the Saints, even if Mullens is activated ahead of the contest.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed that Hall was placed in the concussion protocol following Sunday's 31-28 win over the Falcons and won't be an option to start Week 10 versus the Saints, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Making his first NFL start Sunday a week after Kirk Cousins suffered a season-ending Achilles tear, Hall completed five of six pass attempts for 78 yards and ran twice for 11 yards before leaving the game in the first quarter with a concussion. Trade-deadline pickup Joshua Dobbs stepped in at quarterback despite having few practice reps with the Vikings since his acquisition, and though he got off to a slow start, he ultimately accounted for 224 yards and three touchdowns through the air and on the ground and orchestrated the Vikings' game-winning, 11-play drive scoring drive in the fourth quarter. O'Connell said Monday that Dobbs will get all the first-team reps in practice this week in preparation to start against New Orleans, and if Dobbs performs well, he'll presumably remain atop the depth chart moving forward. Per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, Hall looks like he'll face an uphill battle to clear the five-step protocol in time to serve as a backup to Dobbs on Sunday, and O'Connell expressed uncertainty that Nick Mullens (back) would be ready to return from injured reserve this week. As a result, practice-squad member Sean Mannion could be elevated for Week 10 to back up Dobbs.

Head coach Matt Eberflus said that Fields (thumb) was limited during Monday's walk-through practice and is considered day-to-day, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.

Fields has missed the last three games due to a dislocated right thumb, but he appears to be closing in on a return to game action. While he hasn't been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Panthers, he won't benefit from a typical week of prep work as he aims to avoid a fourth consecutive missed game. The Bears will continue to evaluate him in the coming days, and if he's unavailable Thursday, it certainly seems possible that he could return Week 11 against the Lions on Sunday, Nov. 19.
