  • Tyler Huntley QB | BAL

    Ravens' Tyler Huntley: Accounts for four TDs

    Huntley completed 28 of 40 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Packers. He also rushed 13 times for 73 yards and two more scores.

    Huntley was impressive while starting in place of Lamar Jackson (ankle). The signal-caller leaned on Mark Andrews in the passing game, connecting with the tight end 10 times for 136 yards and two scores, but Huntley also made plays with his legs. In fact, with rushing scores from three and eight yards inside the last five minutes of regulation, Huntley put the Ravens in position to win the game. Although his two-point conversion attempt on a pass to Andrews with 45 seconds left proved unsuccessful, Huntley overall did an incredible imitation of Jackson given the circumstances, which should offer confidence if Baltimore's starter isn't able to return in Week 16 versus the Bengals.

  • Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT

    Packers' Aaron Rodgers: Ties Packers record

    Rodgers completed 23 of 31 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Ravens.

    Rodgers' performance saw him tie Brett Favre for the most career touchdown passes (422) in Packers history. His first came on a three-yarder to favorite target Davante Adams, then Rodgers found Aaron Jones from nine yards and Marquez Valdes-Scantling from 11 on his two scores in the second half. The signal-caller could've had another to seal the game in the fourth, but he uncharacteristically overthrew Allen Lazard, forcing Green Bay to settle for a field goal on the next play. Despite the Packers subsequently having to eke out a narrow victory, overall Rodgers again fueled an important win and will now turn his attention toward Week 16's Christmas Day matchup versus the Browns.

  • Broncos' Teddy Bridgewater: Evaluation results encouraging

    Coach Vic Fangio said after Sunday's loss to the Broncos that everything has "checked out good" for Bridgewater (head) at the hospital, and Fangio believes the quarterback will be fine, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Bridgewater will stay at the hospital overnight for observation, but it sounds like he avoided a major injury, which is great news after he was carted off with a head injury against the Bengals. Drew Lock threw a touchdown pass after replacing Bridgewater but failed to complete the comeback in the 15-10 loss. It's too early to say which quarterback will start against the Raiders in Week 16.

  • Broncos' Teddy Bridgewater: Taken to hospital for evaluation

    Bridgewater (head) was taken to a Denver area hospital after he was carted off the field during the third quarter of Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Patrick Smyth of the Broncos' official site reports.

    The decision is a precautionary measure after Bridgewater sustained a head injury at the end of a scramble that left him prone on the turf. Fortunately for the quarterback, he has movement in all his extremities. With Bridgewater out, Denver turned to Drew Lock to direct the offense.

  • Zach Wilson QB | NO

    Jets' Zach Wilson: Stifled in second half of loss

    Wilson completed 13 of 23 passes for 170 yards without a touchdown or interception in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Dolphins. He added 12 yards and a touchdown on four rushing attempts and lost a fumble.

    Wilson has been plagued by slow starts this season, but that wasn't the case in this one, as he completed all five of his passes for 55 yards on the Jets' first drive, leading to a Braxton Berrios rushing touchdown. He built on that hot start and scored a one-yard rushing touchdown of his own in the second quarter, helping New York take a 17-10 lead into the locker room. New York's offense went dormant after halftime, however, with the Jets' only points of the second half coming on a pick-six by the defense. Wilson hasn't put together many complete performances in his rookie season, though injuries to the Jets' playmakers down the stretch haven't made things easy for him. Perhaps a Week 16 visit from the Jaguars will offer an opportunity for Wilson to find success despite his lack of weapons.

  • Broncos' Teddy Bridgewater: Gets carted off field Sunday

    Bridgewater (undisclosed) was carted off the field during the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Bengals, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.

    At the end of a scramble, Bridgewater tumbled face-mask first into the turf and didn't move for some time. The Broncos' medical staff carefully moved him onto his back, onto a backboard and eventually onto the cart immobilized. The nature and extent of the injury aren't yet known, but Drew Lock will take over for Bridgewater under center.

  • Tua Tagovailoa QB | ATL

    Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa: Overcomes miscues to top Jets

    Tagovailoa completed 16 of 27 passes for 196 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Jets. He added 19 yards on seven rushing attempts.

    Tagovailoa got off to an awful start while adjusting to the absence of favorite target Jaylen Waddle (illness). He recovered his own fumble on the game's third play but was immediately tackled to create a three-and-out on Miami's opening drive, then threw an interception on his first pass of the game to lead off the following drive. New York took advantage of Tua's early struggles and raced out to a 10-0 lead, but the Dolphins responded with a pair of Duke Johnson rushing touchdowns and a one-yard Tagovailoa touchdown pass to defensive lineman Christian Wilkins to take a 24-17 lead. Tua then tied it for the Jets with a pick-six but bounced back by throwing the game-winning touchdown to DeVante Parker from 11 yards out with 3:37 remaining. He led the Dolphins to a sixth consecutive win but will need to clean up the errors in order to extend that streak in Week 16 against the Saints.

  • Ryan Tannehill QB | TEN

    Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Finds end zone on ground

    Tannehill completed 23 of his 32 passes for 153 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 19-13 loss to Pittsburgh. He added five rushes for 18 yards and a score on the ground.

    Tannehill continued his dreadful performance through the air, turning in his third consecutive game without reaching 200 passing yards. That has coincided with A.J. Brown (chest) being sidelined, and Julio Jones being a non-factor while also re-injuring his hamstring. Tannehill did manage to salvage his performance with a one-yard rushing score midway through the first quarter. Though he's now found the end zone as a rusher in four of his last six games, Tannehill has failed to throw for multiple touchdowns in that same six-contest span.

  • Jalen Hurts QB | PHI

    Eagles' Jalen Hurts: Remains 'full' on injury report

    Hurts (ankle) was listed as a full participant on Sunday's injury report.

    Hurts opened Week 15 prep with consecutive 'limited' listings before the Eagles bumped him up to full Friday and called him questionable for a Week 15 game against Washington. But that's before the NFL moved back the scheduled Sunday matchup to Tuesday due to a significant amount of Washington players residing on the reserve/COVID-19 list. With additional time to get his sprained left ankle healthier, Hurts has continued to log full practices and may head into Tuesday without a designation whatsoever. If he does, it would mark his first action since Week 12. On the other hand, an inactive Hurts would yield to Gardner Minshew, who racked up 242 yards and two touchdowns through the air in a spot start Week 13 at the Jets.

  • Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Avoids turnovers in loss

    Lawrence completed 22 of 38 passes for 210 yards with zero touchdowns or interceptions during Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Texans. He also had five carries for 21 yards.

    Lawrence took care of the ball Sunday after throwing four interceptions last week, but he averaged just 5.5 yards per attempt as the offense managed only one touchdown. The rookie No. 1 overall pick has thrown only two touchdowns in eight games since Jacksonville's Week 7 bye, which is contrasted by six interceptions and four fumbles (one lost) during that stretch.
