Cardinals | LaFleur says 'no' to Carson Beck replacing Gardner Minshew next week Sun Nov 8, 08:54 PM
Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur answered with a quick "no" on Sunday when asked whether rookie QB Carson Beck would replace QB Gardner Minshew II next week.
| Footballguys view: LaFleur clearly didn't like the offense's execution before the snap in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Seahawks, as crowd noise bothered the offensive line at times and there was a not-on-the-same-page element. "The margin for error is slim," Minshew said. Arizona hosts the Rams in Week 10. |

Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes' MRI did not reveal a major elbow injury, 'so far, so good' Sun Nov 8, 08:19 PM
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes underwent an MRI following Sunday's win over the Jets, and the tests did not reveal a major injury, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported, citing sources.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes' elbow strain/sprain will be monitored over the next few days for pain and swelling, but "so far, so good." Mahomes returned to the game after the injury. Again, this is a story we'll be following closely in coming days. |

Chargers | Justin Herbert has possible fracture in left middle finger, 'could be a fracture' Sun Nov 8, 08:16 PM
Chargers QB Justin Herbert left Sunday's 44-22 loss to the Texans in the fourth quarter after injuring the middle finger on his left, non-throwing hand. "It could be a fracture," head coach Jim Harbaugh said, adding, "We'll find out," and noted that he made the decision to pull Herbert, who wanted to stay in the game.
| Footballguys view: Herbert, who appeared to hurt his finger while trying to stiff-arm Texans DT Logan Hall on a sack and was sacked eight times in the game, will undergo further testing on Monday. Herbert, who played through a broken bone in his left hand during the 2025 season before having it surgically repaired, expects to play through this injury: "I'll do whatever I can to make sure I'm 100 percent." The Chargers face the Ravens in Week 10. |

Packers | Josh Jacobs 'fractured a finger', LaFleur hopeful he can play Sun Nov 8, 08:09 PM
Packers RB Josh Jacobs fractured a finger in Sunday's win over the Patriots, head coach Matt LaFleur said. "Hopefully, we can do something to allow him to go out there. But he was having a hard time gripping the ball," LaFleur said. Jacobs left Sunday's game with the hand injury.
| Footballguys view: Jacobs left the 45-27 win in the first quarter. His day ended with 5 yards on four carries. With MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks missing the game, Kaleb Johnson filled in and finished with 11 carries for 59 yards and a touchdown. The health of Green Bay's backfield will be something to monitor heading into next Sunday's game against the Vikings. |

Seahawks | Drew Lock suffers oblique injury, status for next week 'up in the air' Sun Nov 8, 07:47 PM
Seahawks QB Drew Lock suffered an oblique injury, head coach Mike Macdonald said on Sunday. Macdonald said it is 'up in the air' whether Lock will be available next week against the Raiders.
| Footballguys view: Lock, who completed 19-of-28 passes for 175 yards, a touchdown, and no turnovers, had also been dealing with severe tendinitis in his throwing elbow. Nonetheless, Lock said he's confident he can play next week if needed. He was filling in for the injured QB Sam Darnold, who is also in danger of missing Seattle's Week 10 game against the Raiders. Darnold could attempt to return for next Sunday's game in Las Vegas, but the Seahawks also know that they have their bye the following week. Jalen Milroe will get the nod if both Darnold and Lock are out next week. |

Packers | Love throws for 372 yards, three touchdowns in win over Patriots Sun Nov 8, 07:46 PM
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love completed 23 of 29 passes for 372 yards with 3 touchdowns and ran 1 time for 13 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 45-27 win over the New England Patriots. He was projected for 18.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 34.2.
| Footballguys view: As Yahoo's Eric Edholm noted, Love once again relied on the NFL's top receiving tandem this season, Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. Watson had seven catches for 171 yards and one touchdown. Working frequently against Patriots All-Pro cornerback Christian Gonzalez, Golden caught 10 passes for 164 yards and a score. Love was QB2 through the end of Sunday's late afternoon games. Love will be tested in Week 10, when the Packers host the Vikings. |

Packers | Watson catches 7 passes for 171 yards, a touchdown in win over Patriots Sun Nov 8, 07:46 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Christian Watson caught 7 passes for 171 yards and a touchdown on 8 targets in Sunday's 45-27 win over the New England Patriots. He was projected for 13.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 26.6.
| Footballguys view: Watson's big performance, which included a career-high in yardage, coincided with Matthew Golden's 10-catch, 164-yard effort. The Packers scored a season-high 45 points in their Week 9 win, the most the Patriots have ever allowed in a game at Gillette Stadium. Green Bay also posted a season-high 478 total yards, including 129 rushing yards, after failing to surpass 90 rushing yards in any of their first eight games of the 2026 season. The Packers host the Vikings in Week 10. |

Packers | Golden catches 10 passes for 164 yards, a touchdown in win over Patriots Sun Nov 8, 07:46 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden caught 10 passes for 164 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in Sunday's 45-27 win over the New England Patriots. He was projected for 13.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 27.4.
| Footballguys view: Golden was the star early as he caught seven passes for 150 yards and a touchdown in the first half to help the Packers to a 24-14 lead at the break. He's had at least 10 targets in each of the past four games. Meanwhile, Christian Watson finished with seven catches for 171 yards, making this the fourth time that the Packers have had two wideouts with at least 150 yards in a game, and both players set career highs for their receiving yards in a single game. |

Patriots | Maye throws for 299 yards, three touchdowns in loss to Packers Sun Nov 8, 07:46 PM
New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 21 of 38 passes for 299 yards with 3 touchdowns and 3 interceptions in Sunday's 45-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He was projected for 20.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 21.3.
| Footballguys view: Maye took a step backward after weeks of steady play. Maye had thrown just one pick in his previous four games. Maye made questionable decisions on all three of his turnovers, two of which set up Packers touchdowns. While it was a top-10 fantasy finish (through Sunday's late-afternoon games), Maye has some cleanup to do before the Patriots Week 10 game against the Lions. |

Chargers | Justin Herbert injures middle finger on left hand, stays in game Sun Nov 8, 07:32 PM
Chargers QB Justin Herbert injured the middle finger on his left hand on a fourth-quarter sack by Texans DT Logan Hall in Sunday's 44-22 loss. Herbert finished 13-of-23 for 193 yards with a touchdown and an interception and was sacked eight times.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com reported, it appeared from close-up views on the broadcast that Herbert either broke or dislocated his middle finger on his left non-throwing hand. He went on to finish the drive and score the Chargers' first touchdown in nearly 40 offensive possessions. He would not return and was replaced by backup DJ Uiagalelei, while Hebert was seen with a massively taped glove and covering on his left hand. More on this as further developments come to light. |

Patriots | RB Rhamondre Stevenson sidelined by knee injury Sun Nov 8, 07:31 PM
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson was injured in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Packers with 3:29 left. He did not return (knee).
| Footballguys view: As SBNation noted, Stevenson was again one of their most consistent sources of offense before departing. He totaled over 70 yards and a touchdown but also lost a fumble. With Stevenson sidelined, New England turned the backfield over to Lan Larison and Corey Kiner. The Patriots did not need to push Stevenson to return down multiple scores, so we'll be watching for more on the severity of this one. |

Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston ran 1 time for 5 yards and also caught 1 pass for 58 yards and a touchdown on 4 targets in Sunday's 44-22 loss to the Houston Texans. He was projected for 5.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 12.8.

Texans | Dell catches 4 passes for 105 yards, a touchdown in win over Chargers Sun Nov 8, 07:31 PM
Houston Texans WR Tank Dell caught 4 passes for 105 yards and a touchdown on 9 targets in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He was projected for 3.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 18.5.
| Footballguys view: As Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke noted, with Xavier Hutchinson taking over the slot role, Dell, Marvin Harrison Jr., Kayshon Boutte in a rotation opposite Nico Collins. Dell and Harrison split snaps relatively evenly in both 11 and 12 personnel. Boutte was a distant third among the three in terms of snaps, but he caught four passes for 125 yards and two touchdowns. Looking ahead, Houston has not indicated that Boutte, Dell, or Harrison will start playing in the slot, meaning all three receivers will continue competing for one spot, and any one of them could have a big week. |
Tank Dell player page
Texans | Boutte catches 4 passes for 125 yards, two touchdowns in win over Chargers Sun Nov 8, 07:31 PM
Houston Texans WR Kayshon Boutte caught 4 passes for 125 yards and two touchdowns on 5 targets in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He was projected for 3.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 26.5.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com noted, Boutte entered Week 9 action with a cumulative 15-194-0 line on 23 targets through seven appearances this season, so Sunday's performance was a true outburst. The issue in the future will be the three-way split the Texans used in Los Angeles, with Boutte, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Tank Dell all sharing the spot opposite Nico Collins. |

Texans | Stroud throws for 384 yards, five touchdowns in win over Chargers Sun Nov 8, 07:31 PM
Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud completed 21 of 35 passes for 384 yards with 5 touchdowns and 1 interception and ran 2 times for 20 yards in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He was projected for 17.4 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 36.4.
| Footballguys view: As NFL.com suggested, Stroud threw the ball to whoever he wanted and wherever he wanted against the Chargers -- evidence that he's playing some of the most confident football of his pro career. He was productive despite leading the game with just under 9 minutes to play in the blowout win, tying his career-high TD passes in a game (Week 9 of 2023). Houston ended the game with nearly 500 yards of offense, sending a signal to the rest of the league that its QB is making a serious push for MVP. The Texans play the Browns in Week 10. |

Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes aims to get 'swelling and the fluid out' of throwing arm this week Sun Nov 8, 07:26 PM
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes said after Sunday's win over the Jets that he wasn't throwing the ball the way he wanted to after injuring his throwing arm, but started throwing better toward the end of the second half as he got warmed back up. "That'll be important this week getting the swelling and the fluid out of it so I can be ready to go from the first snap next week," Mahomes said. Head coach Andy Reid said assistant athletic trainer Julie Frymyer worked on the arm throughout the game and that it helped.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes didn't appear to be impacted by the injury and finished the day completing 230-of-31 passes for 278 yards (7.8 yards per attempt) with 2 touchdowns and no turnovers. Mahomes said he felt good after the game. "I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow, but we'll get right to it and work on it." Still, we'll be following this one closely in coming days. In addition, we'll watch for the Chiefs' expected pursuit of a wide receiver before Tuesday's trade deadline. The Colts' Josh Downs and Jacksonville's Brian Thomas Jr. are among the candidates who would fit with the Chiefs. |

Seahawks | Barner catches 2 passes for 7 yards, a touchdown in win over Cardinals Sun Nov 8, 07:26 PM
Seattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner ran 3 times for 3 yards and a touchdown and also caught 2 passes for 7 yards and a touchdown on 4 targets in Sunday's 17-3 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He was projected for 5.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 14.0.
| Footballguys view: Per ESPN Research, AJ Barner became only the sixth tight end in NFL history with a rushing touchdown and a receiving touchdown in the same game. Barner got his first score on a tush push carry, which has been an unstoppable play for the Seahawks since they began using it last season. Seattle play the Raiders in Week 10. |

Giants | Singletary gets 21 carries with Skattebo out, Harbaugh not seeking 'short-term fix' Sun Nov 8, 07:01 PM
Giants RB Devin Singletary got 21 carries in Sunday's 19-11 win over the Eagles with RB Cam Skattebo (hamstring) out, more than the 18 carries he had all season to date. Rookie RB Gregory Desrosiers, elevated from the practice squad, carried three times for 20 yards. Head coach John Harbaugh said the Giants are "making a lot of calls" ahead of the trade deadline but added, "We're not just going to go for a short-term fix at an exorbitant cost."
| Footballguys view: The Giants play on Thursday night, so Skattebo is questionable at best, and the team has a short time to onboard any running back they would acquire before Thursday's deadline. They do have a 2+ game lead on the Cowboys and should be thinking like a playoff team, but not too aggressively, as the Giants probably don't have the quarterback play to advance deep into the postseason. |

Giants | J.J. McCarthy says hip 'feels pretty good,' will try to be ready for Thursday Sun Nov 8, 06:57 PM
Giants QB J.J. McCarthy said on Sunday that his hip "feels pretty good" and that he will "do my best to be ready for Thursday." McCarthy briefly left Sunday's game with a hip injury before returning. The Giants host the Commanders on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: After his return, McCarthy was visibly limping and in pain after several plays down the stretch. The Giants contemplated leaving Jameis Winston in the game after driving 76 yards on 14 plays for a touchdown. "We had a conversation, and that was definitely part of the conversation," coach John Harbaugh said. "But the trainers and the doctors said [McCarthy] was good, and he said he was ready to go. And so with that, we decided to put him back out there." The issue this week will be the short turnaround to Thursday's game. |

Patriots | RB Rhamondre Stevenson injured in the third quarter vs. Packers Sun Nov 8, 06:55 PM
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson was injured on a play in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Packers with 3:29 left. No return designation has been posted yet.
| Footballguys view: Stevenson left with a knee injury and was ruled out. He had six carries for 32 yards and three receptions for 46 yards and a score before leaving. Corey Kiner is the next man up on early downs with Lan Larison the passing down back for any games that Stevenson misses. The Patriots travel to Munich, Germany to face the Lions next week and then have a bye, so hopefully Stevenson will only miss one game. |

Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes to get more tests on right elbow after Sunday's injury Sun Nov 8, 05:43 PM
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes will undergo more tests on his right elbow after injuring it in Sunday's 35-12 win over the Jets. Mahomes appeared to suffer a potentially serious injury late in the first half but did not miss any offensive snaps until garbage time.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes has special flexibility and healing powers, as we've seen him beat his ACL surgery timeline significantly, and only miss two games after suffering a dislocated kneecap in 2019. Hopefully that will get him through this incident relatively unscathed. #2 overall pick and new head of the New York Sack Exchange David Bailey devoured Mahomes just as he had fully cocked his arm in his throwing motion, and Mahomes appeared to be in great pain as he left the field. Stay tuned, as Justin Fields is the backup, which would significantly change the Chiefs offense if Mahomes has to miss any time. |

Rams | Puka Nacua to undergo MRI on knee, team does not believe ACL is torn Sun Nov 8, 05:25 PM
Rams WR Puka Nacua suffered a knee injury on the team's final offensive snap of Sunday's win over the Commanders and will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the injury. The team does not believe Nacua suffered a torn ACL, but Monday's imaging will tell more.
| Footballguys view: Nacua was not asked about the knee injury after the game. He was asked about his trip to the blue medical tent in the third quarter and said he was checked for a concussion but was cleared. Nacua had 14 catches for 150 yards and a touchdown in the win. He was targeted 19 times. Nacua's 25 receptions over the last two games are the second most by a Rams player in the Super Bowl era. We will obviously be watching for the results of Nacua's imaging and following up through the team's Week 10 game in Arizona. |

Rams | Terrance Ferguson pulled hamstring, likely out 'another couple weeks' Sun Nov 8, 05:06 PM
Rams TE Terrance Ferguson pulled his hamstring during Friday's practice and will likely be out for "another couple [of] weeks," head coach Sean McVay said on Sunday. "You can't make it up, can you?" McVay said. McVay added that Ferguson was going to be a "big part" of the game plan for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
| Footballguys view: The Rams also have to deal with a Puka Nacua knee injury that they believe is not season-ending, but will require an MRI. Matthew Stafford's fantasy value is plummeting, but the Rams running backs could be even more central in the game plan with Myles Garrett's three-sack return promising one of the NFL's best pass rushes in the second half of the season to keep games low scoring. The Rams should also be in the market for a wide receiver with Tuesday's trade deadline looming. |
