  • Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Three more trips to end zone

    Taylor carried the ball 16 times for 94 yards and three touchdowns and caught all three of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers.

    The Colts offense just keeps on rolling, and Taylor has been its engine, scoring from 23 yards out in the first quarter Sunday before dashing for eight and 19-yard scores in the third. It's the third time in seven games this season that Taylor has gotten into the end zone three times, en route to an NFL-best 11 TDs in total (10 rushing, one receiving) and 882 yards from scrimmage. He seems unlikely to be slowed down in Week 8 by the Titans.

  • Kyler Murray QB | ARI

    Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Still starter when healthy

    Coach Jonathan Gannon said after Sunday's loss to the Packers that Murray (foot) remains the Cardinals' starting quarterback when healthy, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Murray suffered a mid-foot sprain in the Week 5 loss to the Titans, and Jacoby Brissett has started the last two contests, both narrow losses to the Colts and Packers by a combined eight points. Brissett again had Arizona competitive Sunday against Green Bay, completing 25 of 36 pass attempts for 279 yards and two touchdowns, adding six rushing attempts for 26 yards with his legs. In two starts under center, Brissett has completed 52 of 80 passes for 599 yards, four touchdowns and just one interception. He's rushed nine times for 45 yards. The Cardinals have looked more competitive with Brissett at the controls, but Murray still has his coach's support as the starter. Arizona has a Week 8 bye before going on the road to face Dallas in Week 9.

  • Daniel Jones QB | IND

    Colts' Daniel Jones: Tosses two TDs in big win

    Jones completed 23 of 34 passes for 288 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers. He added seven rushing yards on five carries and threw a two-point conversion to Michael Pittman.

    The 28-year-old QB threw multiple TD passes for a third straight game, hitting Pittman and Tyler Warren for scores in the red zone during the second quarter. Jones might have posted even better numbers in a more competitive contest, but the Colts focused on killing the clock in the fourth quarter after building a 38-17 lead. Jones already appears to be almost a shoe-in for the Comeback Player of the Year Award after seven weeks in charge of the Indy offense, leading the team to an NFL-best 6-1 record, and he'll take a 71.0 percent completion rate and 10:3 TD:INT into a Week 8 meeting with the Titans.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Drops third 100-yard game in return

    Lamb finished with five receptions (on eight targets) for 110 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

    Lamb made a triumphant return from an ankle injury that forced him to miss the Cowboys' last three contests. The superstar wideout looked every bit of his usual self on the field, pacing Dallas in targets and receiving yards while ripping off a 74-yard reception for his first touchdown of the season. The Oklahoma product is averaging 7.0 receptions and 110.7 yards in the three starts he has been able to complete. A healthy Lamb will have to outplay lockdown corner Patrick Surtain in order to record his fourth 100-yard game of the year when the Cowboys visit the Broncos next Sunday.

  • Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: Limited targets again

    Worthy recorded three receptions on four targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders. He added one rush for 13 yards.

    Worthy saw only four targets for the second consecutive game, a concerning trend given the return of Rashee Rice in Sunday's shutout win. Rice immediately came back to lead the team in every receiving stat and will likely remain Patrick Mahomes' favorite target moving forward. That will leave Worthy reliant on big plays to produce strong fantasy performances and make him more of a boom-or-bust option in future weeks.

  • Kevin Givens DT | SF

    49ers' Kevin Givens: Good to go Sunday night

    Givens (pectoral) is active for Sunday night's game against the Falcons.

    The defensive tackle was activated from injured reserve Saturday after practicing in full throughout the week. Givens recorded 11 tackles (six solo), including 3.5 sacks, in eight games last season. He's in line for a rotational role again in his first game back.

  • Rashee Rice WR | KC

    Chiefs' Rashee Rice: Two touchdowns in season debut

    Rice recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 42 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders.

    Rice made his season debut after recovering from a serious knee injury while also serving a six-game suspension. He immediately regained his role as Patrick Mahomes' favorite pass catcher, as Rice led the team with 10 targets and seven receptions. Rice's work all came close to the line of scrimmage -- his longest catch of the day went for only 12 yards -- but his performance was made with a pair of scores from two and three yards away. The Chiefs were able to run a conservative offensive game plan for the entire second half, so Rice should be in for bigger performances moving forward, even considering his strong season debut.

  • 49ers' Renardo Green: Active Sunday night

    Green (neck) is active for Sunday night's matchup with the Falcons.

    The cornerback entered the day with a questionable tag even though he played through the injury the last two weeks. Green has played on at least 86 percent of the defensive snaps in all five games he's suited up for this season. The 2024 second-round pick has 18 tackles (11 solo) and five pass breakups on the year.

  • Devin Neal RB | NO

    Saints' Devin Neal: Gets one carry Week 7

    Neal logged one carry for one yard during Sunday's 26-14 defeat to the Bears.

    Neal suited up for consecutive games for the first time this season. The rookie sixth-rounder didn't make much of an impact despite the departure of RB2 Kendre Miller (knee) early in the game. The latter running back averaged 9.0 carries per game over the previous four weeks while playing behind Alvin Kamara. If Miller misses time moving forward, Neal is next in line to serve as the No. 2 running back. The Saints' next game is against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 26.

  • Upton Stout CB | SF

    49ers' Upton Stout: Inactive for SNF

    Stout (ankle) is inactive for Sunday night's clash with the Falcons.

    The rookie slot corner injured his ankle during Thursday's practice and was listed as questionable going into Sunday. Stout has played on at least 48 percent of the defensive snaps in each of San Francisco's six games. In his absence, Jason Pinnock, Malik Mustapha and Chase Lucas could see more playing time.
