  • Kirk Cousins QB | LV

    Vikings' Kirk Cousins: Racks up numbers in loss

    Cousins completed 31 of 41 passes for 425 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Vikings' 34-23 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    While his numbers are largely the result of the Vikings trailing from the second quarter on, fantasy managers will naturally take the season-high yardage total and seventh multi-touchdown effort of the campaign. Cousins most frequently connected with Justin Jefferson as customary, with the star receiver bringing in 11 of his completions for 223 yards. Despite the disappointing loss, the Vikings are 10-3 and still in the driver's seat for the NFC North crown, and Cousins will aim to get them quickly back in the win column during a Saturday afternoon Week 15 home matchup versus the Colts.

  • Jared Goff QB | DET

    Lions' Jared Goff: Another stellar effort Sunday

    Goff completed 27 of 39 passes for 330 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions while also gaining nine yards on two rush attempts in the Lions' 34-23 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

    Goff turned in a second consecutive 300-yard, multi-touchdown, interception-free effort to extend what has been the best stretch of play of his career by all accounts, one that's led the team to dispute the notion he's only a "bridge" quarterback to a future high draft pick, per Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. The veteran signal-caller connected with Jameson Williams, Josh Reynolds and DJ Chark for touchdown passes of 41, five and 48 yards, respectively, and he impressively led the Lions to either a field goal or touchdown on all four second-half drives. The Lions are in the thick of the NFC wild-card mix at minimum thanks in large part to Goff's play, but he'll have a thorny road matchup against the Jets in Week 15 that will serve as a stringent test of his hot streak.

  • Joe Burrow QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Burrow: Overcomes receiver injuries

    Playing without three of his top four pass-catchers, Burrow completed 18 of 33 passes for 239 yards and two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's win over the Browns. He also had six carries for 10 yards.

    Tee Higgins allegedly aggravated his hamstring injury in warmups, Tyler Boyd dislocated his finger on the first pass of the game and Hayden Hurst missed the game entirely, so Burrow had to make due with Ja'Marr Chase, Trenton Irwin and Trent Taylor. When viewed in that light, Burrow's performance was pretty good. The interception was a product of a pass getting deflected at the line of scrimmage, which has been a problem for Burrow.

  • Mike White QB | CAR

    Jets' Mike White: Sent to hospital after loss

    White (ribs) completed 27 of 44 passes for 268 yards in Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Bills. After the game, the team sent him to the hospital as a precaution, Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    White exited for two plays in the second quarter after taking an unpenalized big hit from Tre'Davious White as he threw a 24-yard pass to Elijah Moore, then went to the locker room again in the third after Matt Milano drove him into the ground on another play that didn't draw a flag. Clearly in pain, White returned again as the Jets tried to stage a comeback after being shut out in the first half. It's a good sign that White was able to finish the game, and coach Robert Saleh said afterward that White's ribs checked out fine before he came back in and confirmed that White will be the starter Week 15 against the Lions if healthy enough to play, per Connor Hughes of The Athletic and Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, respectively.

  • Jalen Hurts QB | PHI

    Eagles' Jalen Hurts: Another stellar performance Sunday

    Hurts completed 21 of 31 passes for 217 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding 77 rushing yards and another score on seven attempts in the Eagles' 48-22 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Hurts led the Eagles to touchdowns on their first three possessions, two of them consisting of double-digit plays. The star quarterback capped off the latter two drives with 41- and 33-yard touchdown passes to DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown, respectively, and he subsequently added a 10-yard touchdown run on a late third-quarter march. Hurts now has multiple scoring tosses in seven of the last eight games and rushing scores in four of the last five, affording him no shortage of momentum going into a favorable Week 15 road matchup against the Bears.

  • Josh Allen QB | BUF

    Bills' Josh Allen: Mistake-free in Week 14 win

    Allen completed 16 of 27 passes for 147 yards and one touchdown while rushing 10 times for 47 yards and another touchdown in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jets.

    After holding Allen without a passing touchdown in their previous meeting, the ferocious Jets defense gave him trouble early in this one, as Buffalo punted on each of its first two possessions for the first time in 18 games. The Bills punted on their next three drives as well before the Jets gifted them a fourth-down conversion with an encroachment penalty, and Allen capitalized by capping that drive with a 24-yard touchdown pass to Dawson Knox in the final minute of the first half. After the Jets tied the game early in the third, Allen answered with a five-yard touchdown run as the Bills took the lead for good. The dual-threat quarterback has thrown 26 touchdowns and rushed for another six heading into a Week 15 home game against the Dolphins.

  • Tyler Huntley QB | BAL

    Ravens' Tyler Huntley: Won't return to Sunday's game

    Huntley (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Huntley, who had been filling in for Lamar Jackson (knee), will now look to progress through the NFL's concussion protocol ahead of this coming Saturday's contest against the Browns. His absence will result in Anthony Brown finishing up the Ravens' Week 14 game.

  • Mike White QB | CAR

    Jets' Mike White: Back in Sunday's game

    White, who previously exited the contest with rib injury, was replaced by Joe Flacco, but he's been cleared to re-enter the game after having spent some time in the Jets' locker room, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.

  • Mike White QB | CAR

    Jets' Mike White: Heads to locker room Sunday

    White is questionable to return Sunday against the Bills with a rib injury.

    White completed 15 of 23 passes for 154 yards before leaving the game with a rib injury in the second half. With his return currently questionable, Joe Flacco is in at quarterback with Zach Wilson (coach's decision) inactive.

  • Tyler Huntley QB | BAL

    Ravens' Tyler Huntley: Exits Sunday's game

    Huntley (concussion) was replaced by Anthony Brown during Sunday's game against the Steelers, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    Per the report, Huntley is questionable to return to the contest. Prior to his exit, Huntley -- who was filling in for Lamar Jackson (knee) -- completed eight of 12 passes for 88 yards and ran nine times for 31 yards.
