Garoppolo completed 16 of 22 pass attempts for 176 yards and two touchdowns against Jacksonville on Sunday.

Garoppolo and the 49ers passing attack probably could have done more damage if there had been a need, but the Jaguars never posed anything close to a threat in the 30-10 victory for San Francisco. Garoppolo should need to throw more often against what looks like a good matchup against the Vikings in Week 12, particularly with Brandon Aiyuk (seven catches for 85 yards and one touchdown on seven targets Sunday) showing some life lately.

Lawrence completed 16 of 25 pass attempts for 158 yards against San Francisco on Sunday, adding three carries for 23 yards.

Lawrence managed to avoid turnovers but couldn't generate any yardage until the game was almost over, leading the Jaguars to their only touchdown (a one-yard James Robinson carry) with just about three minutes left in the 30-10 blowout. Perhaps Lawrence can do better against Atlanta in Week 12, but there's not much reason to take the leap of faith given the profound struggles of the Jacksonville offense to this point.

Heinicke completed 16 of 22 passes for 206 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 27-21 win over the Panthers. He also rushed six times for 29 yards.

Heinicke turned in a great performance against his former team, connecting on a trio of red-zone touchdowns before helping Washington seal the game late. It marked just the second time in Heinicke's career that he threw for three scores in a game, and he also didn't commit a turnover for the second straight week. For good measure, Heinicke pitched in some useful yardage on the ground as well. Following his triumph in Carolina on Sunday, Heinicke will now turn his attention toward a Monday night matchup versus Seattle in Week 12.

Hurts completed 13 of 24 passes for 147 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added 69 yards and three rushing touchdowns on 18 carries in the Eagles' 40-29 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Hurts once again turned in a relatively subdued performance through the air, falling short of 200 passing yards for the fourth straight game and sixth in the last seven overall. However, the athletic second-year signal-caller remained free of turnovers, managed to top 50 rushing yards for fifth straight contest and furnished his third effort with multiple touchdowns on the ground of the campaign. Hurts' statistical downturn through the air remains somewhat confounding considering he threw for between 264 and 387 yards in three of his first four games of the season, and it can certainly be costly in games when he can't offset it with some strong rushing production. However, he'll remain a highly viable option in all formats for a Week 12 divisional clash against the Giants.

After taking over for an injured Justin Fields (ribs), Dalton completed 11 of 23 yards for 201 yards and two touchdowns in the Bears' 16-13 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Dalton threw a screen pass to Darnell Mooney that turned into a long touchdown and later gave the Bears a late lead after Marquise Goodwin got behind the defense for a 49-yard strike. Otherwise, he completed less than half of his passes and was unable to sustain longer drives. Should Fields miss the Thanksgiving Day game against the Lions, Dalton could be a reasonable streaming option in leagues that start two quarterbacks.

Allen completed 21 of 35 passes for 209 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 41-15 loss to the Colts. He added two carries for 18 yards and ran in a two-point conversion.

Allen was intercepted on an ill-advised 3rd-and-18 throw to cap Buffalo's opening drive. The next possession almost ended with another interception, but a review determined that the ball hit the ground on the play in question. Allen made the most of the second chance, finding Stefon Diggs for a six-yard touchdown, but it was all Colts outside of that drive. Indianapolis picked off Allen again in the third quarter en route to a 38-7 lead before Allen found Diggs for a nine-yard touchdown and ran in a two-point conversion in the fourth. While his ceiling remains among the highest at the quarterback position any given week, Allen has now thrown five interceptions in the past three games after totaling just three over his first seven contests. He'll look to reverse that recent trend on Thanksgiving against the Saints.

Fields exited Sunday's game against the Ravens with a rib injury, Adam Hoge of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

The rookie headed to the locker room to be evaluated early in the third quarter, leaving Andy Dalton to take over at quarterback for Chicago. Fields completed four of 11 passes for 79 yards with four carries for 23 yards prior to leaving the game.

McCoy (pectoral) is active for Sunday's contest in Seattle, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

With Kyler Murray still nursing an ankle sprain, the Cardinals will roll with the healthiest of their top two quarterbacks Week 11. McCoy was able to practice Wednesday through Friday and even capped the week with a full practice, so he should be able to gut out his own pectoral strain. However, he won't have DeAndre Hopkins (inactive/hamstring) or Chase Edmonds (IR/ankle) at his disposal, leaving A.J. Green, Christian Kirk, Rondale Moore, Zach Ertz and James Conner as the top skill-position players available to the offense.

Murray (ankle) is listed as inactive Sunday in Seattle, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

After putting in a pregame warmup, Murray will be held out by the Cardinals as a result of the sprained ankle he suffered back in Week 8 against the Packers. Colt McCoy thus will make a third consecutive start, but he won't have DeAndre Hopkins available due to a nagging hamstring injury. The Cardinals are on bye Week 12, so the Murray-Hopkins connection won't be seen again until Sunday, Dec. 5 at Chicago at the earliest.

Jackson, who is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bears, isn't dealing with an illness related to COVID-19, but the Ravens' medical staff hasn't yet identified the nature of his ailment, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

According to Rapoport, Jackson's illness is believed to be a viral issue, but doctors are apparently confident that the quarterback isn't exhibiting symptoms of either COVID-19 or the flu. In any case, Jackson's ailment was serious enough for the Ravens to rule him out from being available Sunday, even though he made the trip to Chicago and attempted to keep himself hydrated over the past several days. Tyler Huntley is making his first NFL start Sunday in place of Jackson, who will set his sights on getting healthy in advance of the team's Week 12 showdown with Cleveland.
