Minshew completed 38-of-53 passes for 354 yards and three touchdowns in two appearances and is scheduled to be a free agent at the end of the season.

Giants | J.J. McCarthy a full participant in practice Tuesday Tue Nov 10, 04:04 PM
Giants QB J.J. McCarthy (hip) was a full participant in practice on Tuesday.

Dolphins | Kyle McCord becomes Miami's new starting QB with Malik Willis headed to IR Tue Nov 10, 03:49 PM
Dolphins QB Kyle McCord becomes Miami's new starting quarterback after the team placed QB Malik Willis on injured reserve with a groin injury on Tuesday. McCord was acquired from the Packers last summer. QB Brady Cook is on the practice squad.
| Footballguys view: McCord was a 6th-round pick (No. 181 overall) by the Eagles in the 2025 NFL Draft. McCord led the FBS with 4,779 passing yards at Syracuse in 2024. According to ESPN's Steve Muench, "[McCord] is an effective point guard who spreads the ball around. Four Syracuse receivers finished the season with more than 60 catches ... his arm is strong enough to make every throw, and he has the touch to drop the ball in downfield." Now we'll all get an extended look. |

Dolphins | Malik Willis to IR with core muscle injury, will miss 'at least four weeks' Tue Nov 10, 03:45 PM
The Dolphins are placing QB Malik Willis on injured reserve. Willis had been battling a groin injury that impacted his mobility, and an MRI showed it has developed into a core muscle injury that requires rest. The injury is not season-ending, but Willis will miss at least four weeks.
| Footballguys view: Kyle McCord, whom the Dolphins acquired in August from the Packers, becomes Miami's new starting quarterback. QB Brady Cook is on the practice squad. This change obviously isn't ideal. Prior to Sunday's loss to the Lions, Willis and Miami's offense seemed to be gaining traction. Going forward, the team could lean even more heavily on Ollie Gordon II and the rushing attack. |

Raiders | Fernando Mendoza takes over as starting QB after Cousins trade Tue Nov 10, 02:37 PM
Raiders rookie QB Fernando Mendoza, the No. 1 overall pick, will take over as the starting quarterback following Kirk Cousins' trade to the Vikings.
| Footballguys view: Las Vegas is 4-5, and Mendoza's first two career starts will come against the Seahawks and Broncos, two of the NFL's top defenses. While we don't have a lot to go by, it's reasonable to expect TE Brock Bowers' and RB Ashton Jeanty's roles to keep them fantasy-relevant through this shift. We'll be watching for more on any possible changes to the offense with Mendoza at the helm. |

Vikings | Vikings acquire Kirk Cousins from Raiders for 2027 third-round pick Tue Nov 10, 02:37 PM
The Vikings acquired QB Kirk Cousins from the Raiders in a trade on Tuesday, NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported. Las Vegas will reportedly receive a 2027 third-round pick for the 38-year-old, who has thrown 20 touchdowns against eight interceptions in nine games this season.
| Footballguys view: The move reunites Cousins with Minnesota after QB Carson Wentz threw for just 81 yards with three turnovers in Monday's 23-6 loss to the Bills. QB Kyler Murray, the team's original starter, made six starts for the Vikings this season. Cousins' last game for the Vikings came in 2023 against the Packers at Lambeau Field, and his first game back with Minnesota could come Sunday in Week 10 against Green Bay at Lambeau Field. |

Murray has a Grade 2 hamstring strain and was ruled out for Monday night's game against the Bills, which Carson Wentz started. |

The Vikings will trade for a quarterback before Tuesday's 4:00 p.m. ET trade deadline, a source with knowledge of the situation said.
| Footballguys view: The options, per PTF's Mike Florio, are "Daniel Jones, Geno Smith, Mac Jones, Kirk Cousins, TBD surprise, TBD huge surprise, but it will be someone." Florio's source also mentioned Marcus Mariota and Jameis Winston as possibilities. The move comes after a poor outing from Vikings QB Carson Wentz in Monday night's game. |

The beat writer would be "pretty stunned" if the Jets trade QB Geno Smith at the trade deadline, even though teams have called about him. In the beat writer's view, it is "more likely he's back in 2027 than traded now," and the Jets are not going to start rookie QB Cade Klubnik for eight games.

Chargers | Justin Herbert avoids finger fracture, should be 'good to go' Tue Nov 10, 12:19 AM
Chargers QB Justin Herbert avoided a fracture of the middle finger on his left, non-throwing hand in Sunday's loss to the Texans, head coach Jim Harbaugh said on Monday. Herbert should be "good to go" moving forward, The Athletic reported.
| Footballguys view: Herbert had his left hand surgically repaired during the 2025 season after breaking a bone in the back of the hand during a Week 13 game. He played through the injury and expects to play through his current injury, he said postgame. The Chargers, who play the Ravens on Monday Night Football in Week 10, have lost 11 consecutive games. |

Gardner Minshew II likely needs season-ending surgery on torn UCL Tue Nov 10, 12:18 AM
Cardinals QB Gardner Minshew II is seeking additional medical opinions to confirm that he likely will need season-ending surgery on a torn UCL, sources told ESPN's Josh Weinfuss.
| Footballguys view: Minshew suffered the injury before halftime of Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Seahawks and played the second half with it. With Minshew expected to be out, the Cardinals are set to turn to rookie quarterback Carson Beck on Sunday against the Rams. The team also plans to sign veteran Josh Johnson off the Bengals' practice squad. With WR Michael Wilson suffering a season-ending fractured neck, Trey McBride will be even more important for Beck and the Cardinals. |

| Footballguys view: Vikings QB Carson Wentz started the game in place of QB Kyler Murray, who is dealing with a hamstring injury and is week to week. Whether Minnesota could look to add a quarterback before the deadline was raised as an open question. |

Cardinals | Cardinals signing veteran QB Josh Johnson after Gardner Minshew's reported UCL tear Mon Nov 9, 08:24 PM
The Cardinals are signing 40-year-old QB Josh Johnson, according to reports. The move comes after QB Gardner Minshew II reportedly tore his UCL in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Seahawks, an injury he played through for the rest of the game, and Minshew will likely be headed to injured reserve. Johnson played in five games for the Commanders in 2025, starting two and going 1-1, and has 11 career starts. He has been on NFL rosters since 2009 and was with Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur in 2021.

The Cardinals are doing tests on QB Gardner Minshew II's right elbow/arm, the team said Monday. Minshew took a blow at the end of the first half of Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Seahawks.
| Footballguys view: So, in addition to losing WR Michael Wilson for the season, there's a chance Minshew misses Sunday against the Rams, per Mike LaFleur. Rookie Carson Beck will start at quarterback if Minshew can't play. |

Ravens | Jesse Minter keeps Lamar Jackson's thumb injury, return chances 'between me and him' Mon Nov 9, 03:51 PM
Ravens head coach Jesse Minter declined to give any update on QB Lamar Jackson (thumb) in his Monday press conference, including whether he can return this season or whether he requires or has had surgery.
| Footballguys view: "I'm going to keep most of the conversations between Lamar and I between Lamar and I," Minter said, adding that "no one wants to be on the field more" and that Jackson is "probably going to do everything he can to put himself in position" to play. Jackson, who is on injured reserve, is reportedly out 6-9 weeks with a fractured and dislocated thumb. Jacoby Brissett is set to take over as Baltimore's starting quarterback with Jackson and Tyler Huntley on injured reserve. |

Browns | Todd Monken 'not ready to name' Watson or Sanders starter for Week 10 Mon Nov 9, 02:09 PM
Browns head coach Todd Monken was not ready on Monday to name either QB Deshaun Watson or QB Shedeur Sanders his starter for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Texans. The decision follows Sanders' late rally in Sunday's 23-22 overtime loss to the Saints.
| Footballguys view: ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported earlier Monday that the Browns plan to start Watson in Week 10 against the Texans. The looming decision follows Sanders' late rally in Sunday's 23-22 overtime loss to the Saints. Of course, it makes sense that Monken and the Browns aren't looking to fill the Texans in on their plan. That said, we'll continue to watch for more. |

Chiefs | Andy Reid: Patrick Mahomes 'day-to-day' with elbow injury Mon Nov 9, 01:26 PM
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is day-to-day with an elbow injury, head coach Andy Reid said on Monday. Reid said he had seen Mahomes on Monday and the quarterback was in "good spirits." Mahomes' MRI after Sunday's win over the Jets did not reveal a major elbow injury.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes finished Sunday's game completing 23 of his 31 passes for 242 yards and two touchdowns, even though he averaged just 2.8 air yards per attempt, his second-fewest in a game in his career, according to Next Gen Stats. The Chiefs' training staff is expected to monitor Mahomes in hopes of reducing the swelling in his elbow and his pain when throwing the ball. Reid said he didn't know if Mahomes would be able to have his full reps during the Chiefs' three practices this week. The Chiefs' next game is Sunday against the Falcons in Atlanta. |

Seahawks QB Drew Lock is dealing with an oblique strain that head coach Mike Macdonald believes is minor. Macdonald told Seattle Sports 710 ESPN on Monday that tests on Lock's oblique were "good" and the team believes he can start Week 10 against the Raiders, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported. Macdonald also ruled out QB Sam Darnold for Sunday's game in Las Vegas.
| Footballguys view: Remember, Lock was already working with tendinitis in his throwing elbow. We'll follow up as the week progresses. Jalen Milroe will be standing by if Lock and Darnold are both out. |

Browns | Browns plan to start Deshaun Watson in Week 10 vs. Texans Mon Nov 9, 11:36 AM
The Browns plan to start QB Deshaun Watson in Week 10 against the Texans. QB Shedeur Sanders filled in on Sunday in New Orleans, but returning to Watson was the expected move once he cleared the concussion protocol.
| Footballguys view: Watson cleared concussion protocol on Saturday, but was inactive after missing two practices during the week. Shedeur Sanders got the start and went 19-of-31 for 297 yards and two touchdowns. Monken said after the game that he was proud of Sanders' performance after spending the first two months of the season on the bench, but declined to answer whether it was enough for him to consider making a lasting change. Monken hasn't confirmed the plan, but it appears the team will return to the status quo as they try to keep pace in the AFC playoff race. |

Giants | J.J. McCarthy has hip pointer, Giants 'confident' he'll be ready for Thursday Mon Nov 9, 11:35 AM
Giants QB J.J. McCarthy suffered a hip pointer during Sunday's win over the Eagles in Philadelphia. The team is confident that McCarthy will be ready for Thursday night's game against the Commanders. McCarthy left Sunday's game with the hip injury before returning, and said afterward the hip 'feels pretty good.'
| Footballguys view: The short turnaround makes this a situation worth watching. As ProFootballTalk.com suggested, even if he's not playing, there's strategic value in keeping the Commanders in the dark about whether it will be McCarthy or Jameis Winston. Either way, it would be wise for Washington to be ready for both guys, since McCarthy could aggravate the injury or suffer a new one. We'll be following up through game time. |

Cardinals | LaFleur says 'no' to Carson Beck replacing Gardner Minshew II 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. |

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%." The Chargers face the Ravens in Week 10. |

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. |

| Footballguys view: Maye took a step backward after weeks of steady play. He 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. |

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 whomever 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 leaving the game with just under nine minutes to play in the blowout win, tying his career high for 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. |

Patrick Mahomes II aims to get 'swelling and the fluid out' of throwing arm this week Sun Nov 8, 07:26 PM
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes II 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 23 of 31 passes for 242 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. |

| 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. |

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. |

Cowboys | Prescott throws for 335 yards, two touchdowns in win over Colts Sun Nov 8, 04:35 PM
Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott completed 21 of 34 passes for 335 yards with 2 touchdowns and lost 1 fumble in Sunday's 27-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts. He was projected for 19.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 19.5.
| Footballguys view: The Colts pass defense had a lot of trouble finding and covering CeeDee Lamb, who accounted for more than half of Prescott's 335 passing yards. A banged-up Malik Willis will take aim at the Colts wilting defense next week, while Prescott will host an underrated 49ers defense. |

Panthers | Young throws for 276 yards, three touchdowns in loss to Broncos Sun Nov 8, 04:15 PM
Carolina Panthers QB Bryce Young completed 28 of 39 passes for 276 yards with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception and lost 1 fumble in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Denver Broncos. He was projected for 16.4 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 21.3.
| Footballguys view: Young hung tough against the Broncos pass rush and leaned heavily on Darren Waller and other tight ends, a longtime weakness of the Denver defense. He bounced back for fantasy just in time for a matchup against a Saints defense that held him to 287 passing yards and one touchdown in the two matchups last year. He's into the toughest section of his schedule after starting with the easier run of poor pass defenses. |
