  • Justin Herbert QB | LAC

    Chargers' Justin Herbert: Efficient in Week 9 win

    Herbert completed 19 of 29 passes for 250 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Titans. He added nine rushes for 57 yards and an additional score.

    Herbert accounted for the majority of his production in the first half, racking up 186 yards on 20 attempts through two quarters. He was efficient throughout the game, completing five passes of 20 yards while also tossing for scores of 19 and two yards. While Herbert was limited as a passer in the second half due to game script, he managed to punch in his third touchdown of the contest with a one-yard rushing score early in the fourth quarter. Herbert now has multiple touchdowns in four consecutive matchups heading into a Week 10 game against Pittsburgh.

  • Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN

    Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Eclipses 100-yard mark in loss

    Chase brought in six of eight targets for 111 yards in the Bengals' 47-42 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

    Chase played a rare second fiddle to fellow wideout Tee Higgins, who recorded one more reception and target apiece while also outpacing Chase by 10 yards. Nevertheless, Chase still continued to display excellent chemistry with Joe Flacco, who has peppered him with an astounding 50 targets in the last three games alone. Chase has eclipsed the century mark on four occasions overall, and he's carrying a bloated 76-831-5 receiving line into a Week 11 road matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 16 following a Week 10 bye.

  • Jaxson Dart QB | NYG

    Giants' Jaxson Dart: Three total TDs in Week 9 loss

    Dart completed 24 of 33 passes for 191 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the 49ers. He added eight rushing attempts for 56 yards and a touchdown.

    Dart connected with Theo Johnson for a 15-yard touchdown on the opening drive but generated only 65 passing yards on 15 first-half passes. The Giants finally got back into the end zone with less than eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, when Dart scored his fifth rushing touchdown through six starts on a six-yard designed run. Dart also tossed a 24-yard touchdown pass to Gunner Olszewski with 1:21 remaining, but the Giants still faced double-digit deficits after both of those fourth-quarter scores. The rookie first-round pick led the team in rushing yards Sunday as he continues to generate offense with both his arm and legs, but Dart's limited supporting cast will continue to cap his upside in Week 10 against the Bears.

  • Davis Mills QB | HOU

    Texans' Davis Mills: Called on in relief Sunday

    Mills completed 17 of 30 passes for 137 yards in Sunday's 18-15 loss to the Broncos. He added seven rushing yards on two carries.

    C.J. Stroud was knocked out of the game early in the second quarter and was diagnosed with a concussion, leaving the offense in the hands of Mills for the rest of the afternoon. The fifth-year quarterback led the Texans to four scoring drives but wasn't able to get the ball into the end zone, and the lack of touchdowns proved costly in the end. If Stroud isn't able to clear concussion protocol in time to return in Week 10 against the Jaguars, Mills would get his first start of the season.

  • Patriots' DeMario Douglas: Best game of season in Week 9 win

    Douglas caught four of six targets for 100 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-23 win over the Falcons.

    Douglas scored a 16-yard touchdown on New England's first drive and broke free for a 58-yard gain in the second quarter. He accounted for 100 of Drake Maye's 259 passing yards, while no Patriots teammate had more than 51 receiving yards. Douglas should remain involved out of the slot in Week 10 against the Buccaneers after setting season highs Sunday in both catches and receiving yards.

  • Stefon Diggs WR | NE

    Patriots' Stefon Diggs: Scores TD in Week 9 win

    Diggs caught three of four targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-23 win over the Falcons.

    Diggs scored an 11-yard touchdown in the second quarter on a diving effort to the pylon, but that was his only catch of the first half, during which fellow wide receiver Kayshon Boutte exited due to a hamstring injury. Despite Diggs' modest involvement, the veteran wide receiver finished third on the team in receiving yards behind DeMario Douglas (100) and Hunter Henry (51). After opening the season with a seven-game touchdown drought, Diggs will take a two-game scoring streak into a Week 10 road game against the Buccaneers.

  • Kyle Pitts TE | ATL

    Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Four catches in Week 9

    Pitts caught four of seven targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots.

    Drake London and Bijan Robinson combined for 17 catches, 168 receiving yards and three London receiving touchdowns, but Pitts was the best of the rest, as Darnell Mooney contributed Atlanta's only reception by a player other than London, Robinson or Pitts. After catching all nine of his targets from Kirk Cousins in the Week 8 loss to the Dolphins, Pitts was back to working with Michael Penix, who returned from a one-game absence due to a knee injury. Pitts has at least three receptions in every game this season heading into a Week 10 meeting with the Colts in Berlin.

  • Troy Franklin WR | DEN

    Broncos' Troy Franklin: Does little with big target volume

    Franklin caught four of 10 targets for 27 yards and lost four rushing yards on two carries in Sunday's 18-15 win over the Texans. He added a two-point conversion.

    The second-year wideout was Bo Nix's top option on the day in terms of targets, but Franklin had trouble getting open against a stingy Houston secondary. It's the second time in the last three weeks Franklin's gotten double-digit looks from his college teammate Nix, and on the season he's put together a 37-385-4 line on 64 targets, making him more of a 1B alongside Courtland Sutton than the Broncos' No. 2 receiver. Franklin should find more room to operate in Week 10 against the Raiders.

  • Jahmyr Gibbs RB | DET

    Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs: Contained on 12 touches in loss

    Gibbs rushed nine times for 25 yards and brought in all three targets for three yards in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Gibbs' final line underscores the stellar job the Vikings defense managed to do containing him all afternoon, and the third-year pro's yardage totals were both his second lowest of the season. Ironically, Gibbs was coming out of the Week 8 bye fresh off his best game of the season (218 total yards and two rushing TDs) versus the Buccaneers in Week 7, and he'll look to return to that caliber of production in a Week 10 road matchup against the Commanders.

  • Bijan Robinson RB | ATL

    Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Gets 20 touches in Week 9 loss

    Robinson rushed 12 times for 46 yards and caught eight of 10 targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots.

    Robinson didn't get many opportunities on the ground as the Falcons tried to play catch-up with a pass-heavy approach, but he was heavily involved as a receiver out of the backfield. Drake London scored all three of Atlanta's touchdowns while leading the team with nine catches and 118 receiving yards, but all other Falcons pass catchers besides London and Robinson combined for only five receptions and 53 yards. Robinson's versatile skill set should ensure he maintains a prominent role in Week 10 against the Colts in Berlin as he tries to snap a two-game touchdown drought.
