Coach Vic Fangio noted that Bridgewater played through a shin injury during the second half of Sunday's 28-13 win against the Chargers, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports. "He toughed it out," Fangio said. "He was nowhere near 100 percent."

It was an up-and-down performance from Bridgewater, who was forced from the contest on the Broncos' third possession. He yielded QB duties to Drew Lock for the rest of the first half, but Bridgewater was able to return after halftime and eventually finished 11-for-18 passing for 129 yards and one touchdown to go with two carries for 10 yards and another score. Bridgewater likely has maintenance in store for him during Week 13 prep, as his status will be monitored closely leading up to next Sunday's road matchup with the Chiefs.

Burrow completed 20 of 24 pass attempts for 190 yards, a touchdown and an interception while scoring another touchdown on an eight-yard rush in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Steelers.

The Bengals' defense and rushing attack led the charge in an important win over an AFC North rival, but Burrow was able to get in on the ground onslaught with a touchdown of his own. It was the 24-year-old's first rushing score of the season after posting three in his shortened rookie campaign. Burrow has failed to top 200 passing yards over his last two contests after averaging 309.5 yards over his previous six. The Bengals may need to rely on their rising star quarterback when they face a high-powered Chargers offense next Sunday.

Taylor completed 17 of 26 passes for 158 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Jets. He added 30 yards on two rushing attempts.

Taylor was picked off on Houston's first possession but bounced back two drives later with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Brevin Jordan to take a 7-3 lead. He then threw a dime to Brandin Cooks for a 40-yard touchdown on the very next possession. Taylor cooled off after that, though, and the Jets responded with 18 unanswered points to pull out the road win. The veteran quarterback will have limited appeal when the Colts come to town in Week 13.

Bridgewater (lower leg) returned to action for the Broncos' first drive of the second half in Sunday's game against the Chargers, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports.

Bridgewater injured his leg in the first quarter of Sunday's contest and did not see any action in the second period, but he was able to make it back into the game after halftime.

Tannehill completed 11 of 21 passes for 93 yards with a touchdown and an interception while adding 24 yards on five rushes in the Titans' 36-13 loss to the Patriots on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Tennessee.

With all of A.J. Brown (chest), Julio Jones (hamstring) and Marcus Johnson (hamstring) on injured reserve, Tannehill was forced to rely on a makeshift wideout corps that wasn't able to do its part to help him keep the ball moving downfield against a stingy Patriots defense. The passing yardage total was Tannehill's lowest of the season by far, but he was able to extend his streak of at least one passing touchdown to six games with a one-yard scoring toss to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in the second quarter. If Sunday's results are any indication, there's reason for concern among Tannehill's fantasy managers until one of either Jones or Brown is able to make it back to action. Tannehill's next opportunity to atone for Sunday's meager numbers comes in a Week 14 home matchup versus the Jaguars following a Week 13 bye.

Jones completed 19 of 30 pass attempts for 202 yards and one touchdown while running for 30 yards on nine carries against Philadelphia on Sunday.

The Eagles kept Jones under a decent amount of pressure by hitting him five times despite his modest pass-attempt volume, but it still would have been nice to see the third-year quarterback produce a bit better than this. Jones and the Giants head to Miami to face the Dolphins in Week 13, and that matchup would be significantly more manageable if at least one of Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) or Kadarius Toney (quadriceps) could return from injury by then. The Dolphins blitz aggressively and big plays can be had as a result, but Jones will need to be alert and correctly identify the weak spots.

Bridgewater was forced out of Sunday's game against the Chargers with a lower leg injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Prior to his exit from the contest, Bridgewater had completed six of 10 pass attempts for 59 yards and ran once for an 11-yard TD. In his absence, Drew Lock has taken over at QB for the Broncos.

Wilson (knee) completed 14 of 24 passes for 145 yards and an interception in Sunday's 21-14 win over Houston. He added three yards and a touchdown on two rushing attempts.

Wilson struggled early in his first action since Week 7, throwing for just 11 yards in a first quarter that also included an interception on a shovel pass that bounced off Ty Johnson's back. To the rookie's credit, he didn't panic after the Jets fell into a 14-3 hole in the second quarter. Wilson led a touchdown drive capped by a two-yard Austin Walter touchdown run late in the first half, then took it in himself from four yards out in the third quarter, diving across the goal line on a play that suggested his PCL sprain has healed. It looked like he tweaked the knee in the fourth, but Wilson said after the game that moments of instability in the knee are par for the course, and there's no risk of re-injury, per Andy Vasquez of NorthJersey.com. With his second NFL win under his belt, Wilson will look to correct some of his lingering accuracy issues Week 13 against the Eagles barring an unexpected setback with the knee.

Hurts completed 14 of 31 pass attempts for 129 yards and three interceptions while running for 77 yards on eight carries against the Giants on Sunday.

Hurts could have had a game-winning touchdown pass at the end if Jalen Reagor had caught one of two on-target passes in traffic, but both were dropped and the comeback attempt ended with the score 13-7. After conducting a more run-heavy offense in recent weeks, the Eagles went pass-happy to open this game, and coincidence or not, Hurts struggled worse than he has in a month or so. A game against the Jets in Week 13 could be just what Hurts needs to hit his stride again, but according to Tim McManus of ESPN.com the second-year quarterback was described by coach Nick Sirianni as "a little hobbled" with an ankle injury late in Sunday's loss.

Jones completed 23 of 32 passes for 310 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 36-13 win over the Titans. He also rushed twice for 11 yards.

Jones set a new career high in passing yards, topping his Week 7 total by three. The rookie quarterback capped New England's first drive with a four-yard touchdown pass to Kendrick Bourne, then added a 41-yard touchdown to Bourne in the third, improving his TD:INT to 16:8. Between Jones' strong play and a dominant defense, the Patriots have quietly emerged as contenders in the AFC, as they'll bring an 8-4 record into a pivotal Week 13 trip to Buffalo.
