Tannehill completed 18 of 29 passes for 216 yards and an interception in Monday night's 34-31 win over the Bills. He also rushed twice for three yards and a touchdown.

Tannehill didn't have the best performance through the air, but he compensated for a pick downfield in the first quarter with a four-yard touchdown rush in the second. The signal-caller then found top wideout A.J. Brown frequently after halftime, aiding Tennessee's comeback victory. With just one touchdown in each of his last three games, Tannehill will strive to elevate his play in a Week 7 matchup versus Kansas City.

Wolford suffered a neck injury during Sunday's game against the Giants but is expected to be available in Week 7 against Detroit, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Wolford failed to complete a pass on two attempts and threw an interception in his brief appearance Sunday, and he also came away slightly banged up. However, head coach Sean McVay noted the backup quarterback should be ready to play in the team's upcoming contest if needed.

Allen completed 35 of 47 passes for 353 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in Monday night's 34-31 loss to the Titans. He also rushed nine times for 26 yards and caught a two-point conversion.

Allen came up short on a fourth-and-one sneak attempt from the Titans' three-yard line with under 25 seconds remaining, but the quarterback still turned in an impressive overall performance. He started with a 14-yard touchdown to top wideout Stefon Diggs, then after being hit on an interception in his own territory, Allen rallied with a 29-yard score to Cole Beasley with under a minute left in the first half. Allen then hit Tommy Sweeney from one yard for his third score, after which he caught a reverse pass for a two-point conversion. Although Monday's narrow defeat will now send Allen into the Bills' bye week on a sour note, he's accounted for at least 350 total yards in three of his last four outings, producing 14 touchdowns over that span.

Coach Mike McCarthy relayed Monday that Prescott's MRI confirmed that the QB has a strained right calf, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

The plan is for Prescott to rest and rehab during Dallas' upcoming bye week and then be evaluated next Monday, per David Helman of the Cowboys' official site. Meanwhile, both Hill and Helman note that the team is optimistic that the signal-caller will be available for Dallas' Oct. 31 road game versus Minnesota.

Denver lists Bridgewater as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report with a foot issue, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Bridgewater may not be 100 percent following Sunday's loss to the Raiders, but so long as he at least maintains limited listings on the Broncos' next two practice reports, he should be ready to go for a Thursday night matchup with the Browns in Week 7. The signal-caller benefited from a negative game script versus Las Vegas to produce one of his best lines of the season (35-for-49 for 334 yards and three touchdowns), though he committed four turnovers (three interceptions, one lost fumble) in the 34-24 loss.

The Browns listed Mayfield (shoulder) as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Cleveland didn't hold an actual practice one day after the team's 37-14 loss to the Cardinals, but Mayfield wouldn't have been available to take the field after aggravating the partially torn labrun in his left (non-throwing) shoulder in the blowout. Though Mayfield expressed confidence he'll be ready to play Thursday night against the Broncos, head coach Kevin Stefanski wasn't yet prepared to declare the 26-year-old ready to go for the quick turnaround Week 7. Case Keenum will start under center in the event Mayfield can't go versus Denver.

Mayfield (shoulder) underwent an MRI on Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Mayfield said Sunday that he expects to play Thursday against the Broncos after he aggravated the injury to his left (non-throwing) shoulder in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals. However, coach Kevin Stefanski is waiting on the results of the quarterback's MRI before determining whether the 26-year-old will be able to suit up Week 7. If Mayfield is held out against Denver, Case Keenum would take over in the primetime matchup.

Lance (knee) was not spotted at the start of Monday's practice, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Lance is dealing with a sprained left knee sustained Week 5, and even coming after a bye it doesn't appear that he's yet ready to resume on-field activities. Meanwhile, Jimmy Garoppolo (calf) is present Monday and could have a better shot at being available to start Week 7. The 49ers won't be compelled to offer official updates on either quarterback until Wednesday's first injury report of the week is released.

Garoppolo (calf) is participating in the start of Monday's practice, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Garoppolo hasn't played since Week 4 due to a bruised right calf, but coming off of a bye it looks like he could be nearing a return to the field. Meanwhile, rookie quarterback Trey Lance (knee) was not spotted Monday, perhaps indicating that Garoppolo has the best chance to start Sunday's upcoming matchup against the Colts. It already was anticipated that coach Kyle Shanahan would name Garoppolo the starter, even in the event that both he and Lance are available Week 7.

Prescott (calf) expects to suit up without issue after a Week 7 bye, and the results of Monday's medical tests are encouraging, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Prescott sustained a right calf strain during the final play of Sunday's overtime win against the Patriots. The immediate timing of Dallas' bye certainly is lucky, as it looks like Prescott will be able to avoid missing time. The 28-year-old has thrown three or more touchdowns in five of six appearances this season.
