Allen completed 29 of 41 passes for 236 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in Monday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Jets. He added six rushing attempts for 36 yards and fumbled twice, losing one.

Allen had a would-be third fumble returned for a Jets touchdown in the second quarter, but it was erased on a questionable ruling of his forward progress having stopped. He threw an interception two plays later, then bounced back with a five-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs on the next drive. The Bills appeared to have the game well in hand with a 10-point halftime lead and Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) ruled out, but Allen let New York back in with a pair of second-half interceptions and a fourth-quarter fumble that led to the Jets' go-ahead field goal with 1:48 remaining in regulation. To his credit, Allen managed to get the Bills in range for a game-tying 50-yard field goal in the final seconds of regulation, but the Jets won it on a punt return touchdown in overtime after Buffalo went three-and-out. Had his first fumble counted, Allen would have set a new career high with five turnovers, but he tied his existing high as is. On the bright side, Buffalo doesn't have to face the stout Jets defense again until Week 11, and Allen should get back to his usual effectiveness as a dual-threat dynamo in the Week 2 home opener against the Raiders.

The Jets believe that Rodgers suffered an Achilles injury during Monday's 22-16 overtime win against the Bills, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Rodgers got injured on the Jets' fourth offensive play and needed assistance reaching the sidelines before being carted to the locker room. X-rays came back negative, but the 39-year-old quarterback was seen wearing a walking boot on his left foot. When combined with the fact coach Robert Saleh called Zach Wilson the team's starting quarterback the rest of the season, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Tuesday's MRI likely will confirm the worst for Rodgers.

Rodgers (ankle) will not return to Monday's game against the Bills.

The good news is Rodgers' X-rays came back negative, but the injury still is severe enough to keep him out for the remainder of the game. That leaves Zach Wilson as the Jets' only healthy option under center for the rest of the game.

Rodgers (ankle) underwent X-rays on Monday and was subsequently seen wearing a walking boot as he made his way to the locker room, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Rodgers was able to limp off the field with an ankle injury before getting carted to the locker room. There is no word on the result of the X-rays, but him being in a walking boot does not bode well for his chances to return. Still, the team is labeling him as questionable to return.

Rodgers is considered questionable to return to Monday's game against the Bills due to an ankle injury.

Rodgers took a sack on the Jets' opening drive and subsequently limped off the field to the medical tent. From there, he was carted to the locker room. There is no word on the severity of the issue other than he is questionable to return. Zach Wilson replaced Rodgers under center.

Rodgers left Monday's season opening game against the Bills early after suffering an undisclosed injury, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.

Rodgers limped off the field after taking a sack and headed to the medical tent. There is no word on the specific injury or the severity at this time. Zach Wilson replaced Rodgers under center.

Rypien has reverted to the Rams' practice squad, per the NFL's transaction log.

Although he was elevated to Los Angeles' practice squad Saturday, Rypien never saw the field. He served as Matthew Stafford's backup under center, and his services were ultimately never needed on the field. The quarterback could ultimately be called up again for Week 2 depending on Stetson Bennett's (shoulder) status.

Coach Jonathan Gannon confirmed that Dobbs will remain Arizona's starting QB on Sunday versus the Giants, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

In the Cardinals' season-opening 20-16 loss to the Commanders, Dobbs completed 21 of 30 passes for 132 yards without a TD or pick, while carrying three times for minus-3 yards and recording three fumbles (two lost). He'll look to pick up the pace this weekend against a Giants team that dropped a 40-0 decision to the Cowboys on Sunday night, but he still profiles as a speculative fantasy lineup play while filling in for Arizona's injured franchise QB Kyler Murray (knee), who is currently on the reserve/PUP list.

The Seahawks cut Ahlers from their practice squad Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Just a week after joining the practice squad, Ahlers is now set to become a free agent. The undrafted rookie will have to look for another opportunity to make an impression with a different team.

Minshew went 0-for-2 passing in Sunday's loss to Jacksonville as he played on the offense's final three plays at the goal line with starting quarterback Anthony Richardson exiting with a knee bruise.

Minshew couldn't convert on a second-and-goal situation on the game's final meaningful plays. Richardson said after the game that he's fine and is expected to play next week against Houston. If not, Minshew would get the start as he's firmly entrenched as the backup.
