Commanders' Ben Sinnott: Catches sole target in loss
Sinnott caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.
Sinnott played 48 of the Commanders' 71 offensive snaps as well as nine special-teams snaps in Sunday's contest. The tight end started due to Chig Okonkwo's (hamstring) absence and also put in plenty of time as a blocker.

Matthew Stafford QB | LAR
Rams' Matthew Stafford: Vintage effort sans Nacua in win
Stafford completed 22 of 31 passes for 327 yards with four touchdowns and one interception and rushed four times for minus-1 yard in the Rams' 28-6 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Stafford shrugged off the absence of No. 1 receiver Puka Nacua (hip), delivering a stellar and nearly mistake-free performance while focusing heavily on Davante Adams, who was on the receiving end of half of the veteran signal-caller's touchdown passes. Stafford averaged 10.5 yards per attempt overall, and his scoring strikes came from 31 and 11 yards out to Adams, and from 10 and five yards on connections with Kyren Williams and Terrance Ferguson, respectively. Stafford has a thorny Week 3 assignment on tap irrespective of Nacua's availability, however, considering the Rams will pay a visit to the Broncos on Sunday night.

Dyami Brown WR | WAS
Commanders' Dyami Brown: Loses fumble in loss
Brown caught four of his six targets for 21 yards and completed his sole pass attempt for zero yards while losing one fumble in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.
Brown played 39 of the Commanders' 71 snaps as one of the starting wide receivers. The pass catcher became the quarterback briefly in the third quarter on a play that went for no gain. Brown also lost a fumble in the third quarter that did not help the Commanders' comeback efforts.
-
Antonio Williams WR | WAS
Commanders' Antonio Williams: Three catches in loss
Williams caught all three of his targets for 24 yards and failed to complete his only pass attempt in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.
Williams played 35 of the Commanders' 71 offensive snaps in Sunday's contest. The wide receiver also threw a deep shot to Terry McLaurin late in the third quarter on a trick play as the Commanders tried to keep the game close after the loss of quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) before the half.

Blake Corum RB | LAR
Rams' Blake Corum: Even timeshare with Williams
Corum rushed 12 times for 79 yards and brought in his only target for 13 yards in the Rams' 28-6 win over the Giants on Monday night. He also fumbled once but recovered.
Corum and Kyren Williams had the exact same number of carries, and the former was just six rushing yards shy of his teammate's total. Corum also was efficient on his one reception, and the 2024 third-round pick, who also recorded 10 carries in Week 1 against the 49ers, appears set to work as a legitimate 1A option in the Rams backfield moving forward. Corum next takes aim at a tough Broncos defense in a Week 3 road showdown on Sunday night.

Malik Nabers WR | NYG
Giants' Malik Nabers: Major downturn in Week 2 loss
Nabers brought in one of four targets for one yard in the Giants' 28-6 loss to the Rams on Monday.
Nabers exited late in the first quarter with a right shoulder injury but was able to return before halftime. However, the Giants' air attack saw a major downturn once quarterback Jaxson Dart was forced from the contest after one series due to a knee injury, and Nabers appears to have suffered some of the collateral damage, in addition to whatever limitations his injury may have imposed. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network relays that Dart has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL, so it's conceivable the star wideout could face the Titans in a Week 3 home matchup with Jameis Winston once again leading New York's offense. Nabers himself is slated for testing, as he stated following Monday's loss that his shoulder "popped out" and had to be "popped back in" during the game. He'll undergo X-rays to gain more information about the extent of his injury, per Dan Duggan of The Athletic.

Kaytron Allen RB | MIA
Commanders' Kaytron Allen: Has five carries in garbage time
Allen logged five carries for 24 yards in the last 3:01 of Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.
Allen saw just six offensive snaps in Sunday's game, all in garbage time. The game was well out of reach by the time Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Rachaad White left the field, leaving the sixth-round rookie to gain more NFL experience.

Cam Skattebo RB | NYG
Giants' Cam Skattebo: Stymied in Week 2 loss
Skattebo rushed 12 times for 36 yards and brought in all four targets for 19 yards in the Giants' 28-6 loss to the Rams on Monday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by New York.
Jaxson Dart's first-half exit due to a knee injury naturally put a damper on the Giants offense as a whole, and Skattebo unsurprisingly faced more stringent fronts than he otherwise would have had Dart been in the game. Skattebo did have a solid passing game role as New York trailed throughout, but with Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reporting Dart has been diagnosed with an MCL sprain, it's possible the second-year back may play at least Sunday's Week 3 home matchup against the Titans without his talented teammate.

Brian Burns LB | NYG
Giants' Brian Burns: Suffers low-ankle sprain
Burns suffered a low-ankle sprain in Monday's 28-6 loss to the Rams, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.
The diagnosis of a low-ankle sprain is welcome news for the Giants' pass rush. Instead of missing roughly 4-to-6 weeks with a more serious injury, Burns could be back for Sunday's Week 3 game against the Titans. The linebacker will need further testing, but it appears the star pass rusher should return to the field sooner rather than later.

Kyren Williams RB | LAR
Rams' Kyren Williams: Scores receiving TD on efficient night
Williams rushed 12 times for 85 yards and brought in both targets for 12 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 28-6 win over the Giants on Monday night. He also lost a fumble.
Williams and backfield mate Blake Corum split the rushing workload right down the middle, and both backs were highly efficient. Williams added a 10-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter, but the talented veteran's lost fumble late in the first half on his own 11-yard line led to a Giants field goal. Williams has a rushing and receiving score apiece over the first two games heading into a tough Week 3 road matchup against the Broncos on Sunday night, although his timeshare with Corum does cap his outlook to an extent.
