Kyler Murray QB | MIN
Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Works out on side at practice
Murray (shoulder) worked out on a side field away from his healthy teammates during Tuesday's practice session, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Murray is still recovering from the AC joint injury to his right shoulder that he suffered in last week's loss to the Seahawks, but at this stage, the issue isn't expected to sideline him for the Cardinals' Nov. 29 game in New England. The Cardinals won't release their first official Week 12 injury report until Wednesday, at which point the extent of Murray's participation in practice will be clear.

Jared Goff QB | DET
Rams' Jared Goff: Tops 375 yards with three touchdowns
Goff completed 39 of 51 passes for 376 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Monday night's 27-24 win over the Buccaneers.
Goff got off to a strong start, tossing touchdowns to Robert Woods and Van Jefferson while being highly efficient in the first half. Although he threw a poor interception that immediately put Tampa Bay in scoring position after halftime, Goff rallied with a four-yard score to tailback Cam Akers later on. He then followed another pick in his own half of the field by driving down to set up the game-winning field goal in the fourth quarter. Overall, Goff's performance had a couple of notable bumps, but nonetheless was largely successful. He set a new season high in passing yardage -- topping 300 for the third straight game -- while getting both of his top wideouts, Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods, at least 10 catches and 130 yards. Now also fresh off his second outing of the campaign with three passing touchdowns, Goff sports significant momentum in advance of Sunday's divisional clash against the 49ers.

Mike White QB | CAR
Mike White: Cut by Jets
White was waived by the Jets on Monday.
The 25-year-old was promoted from the practice squad Saturday for depth with Sam Darnold (shoulder) expected to be sidelined Week 11, but it was a brief stay on the active roster. White could rejoin the team's practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Sam Darnold QB | SEA
Jets' Sam Darnold: Will be evaluated Wednesday
The Jets are expected to evaluate Darnold (shoulder) on Wednesday before making a decision about his Week 12 availability, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.
Darnold hasn't played since Week 8 due to a lingering AC joint injury in his right shoulder, but Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York has reported that coach Adam Gase said the young signal-caller has a "good shot" to return against Miami on Sunday. It sounds like the Jets are satisfied with how Darnold has progressed in his throwing routine, per Vacchiano, but the team remains concerned about re-injury. As Rich Cimini of ESPN.com notes, Darnold said Monday that a worst-case scenario for aggravating his shoulder would be another 2-to-3-week absence.

Matthew Stafford QB | LAR
Lions' Matthew Stafford: Begins week with limited practice
Stafford (thumb) was a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Stafford played through a partial ligament tear in his right thumb during Sunday's loss to the Panthers. His performance clearly was hindered, as he completed just 18 of 33 passes (55 percent) for 178 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions. While it was a dismal performance, there haven't been any reported setbacks to Stafford's injury. At this time, he should be ready to start in the Thanksgiving Day clash against the Texans.

Joe Burrow QB | CIN
Bengals' Joe Burrow: Placed on IR
The Bengals placed Burrow (torn ACL) on injured reserve Monday.
Burrow suffered a season-ending torn left ACL, MCL and additional ligament damage during Sunday's loss against Washington, so his placement on injured reserve was only a matter of time. Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports that the Bengals anticipate an 8-to-9-month recovery timetable for Burrow, which would put him on track for the start of the 2021 season as long as he can avoid any setbacks. Ryan Finley replaced Burrow during Sunday's loss, and the Bengals have since promoted Brandon Allen from the practice squad.

Teddy Bridgewater QB | DET
Panthers' Teddy Bridgewater: Should practice Wednesday
Coach Matt Rhule said Monday that he expects Bridgewater to participate in Wednesday's practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Bridgewater logged a trio of limited practice sessions last week but was a late scratch for Sunday's win over Detroit, and P.J. Walker ultimately was Carolina's starting quarterback. Considering Bridgewater was expected to play Sunday despite a sprained MCL in his right knee, he has a decent chance to return to action Week 12 against the Vikings.
-
Joe Burrow QB | CIN
Bengals' Joe Burrow: Expected to be ready for 2021
The Bengals expect Burrow (torn ACL) to recover in time for the start of the 2021 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Burrow tore his left ACL and MCL during Sunday's loss to the Football Team, in addition to suffering other structural damage. Adam Schefter of ESPN has noted that such injuries usually carry a 9-to-12-month recovery timetable, which could put his availability for next year in jeopardy, but Ben Baby of ESPN.com's confirmation that coach Zac Taylor expects Burrow to be ready for 2021 would suggest that the Bengals are confident his recovery will be on the quicker end. The 23-year-old now faces a difficult rehab process, even barring any setbacks, but his strong performance through 10 games as a rookie should provide Cincinnati with more than enough confidence to continue building around him.

Mitch Trubisky QB | TEN
Bears' Mitchell Trubisky: Starter still TBD for Week 12
Coach Matt Nagy said Monday that he's not yet ready to name Trubisky (shoulder) or Nick Foles (hip) the starter for Sunday's game against the Packers, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.
Trubisky has been sidelined since Week 8 due to a lingering shoulder injury, but Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports that the 2017 first-round pick is present for Monday's practice while Foles is absent. The Bears reportedly consider Foles day-to-day due to a potential hip pointer sustained Nov. 16 versus Minnesota. It appears that a substantive update on Chicago's quarterback situation won't arrive until Wednesday's practice at the earliest, but the Week 12 starting gig could simply go to whomever of Trubisky or Foles is healthiest.

Brandon Allen QB | NYG
Bengals' Brandon Allen: Signs with Bengals' active roster
The Bengals will sign Allen to the active roster Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Allen was on the Bengals' practice squad but will slot into the backup role behind Ryan Finley following news that Joe Burrow suffered a torn ACL and MCL during Sunday's loss to Washington. Over three games with the Broncos last season, Allen completed 39 of 84 passes (46 percent) for 515 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions.
