Cousins completed 20 of 33 passes for 208 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 21-7 loss to the Seahawks. He also rushed three times for five yards and had a fumble returned for a touchdown.

Cousins was stymied by a swarming Seahawks defense, as 70 of his passing yards came on the Vikings' final drive while trailing by 21 points. Although Cousins capped that series with a six-yard touchdown to Dalvin Cook, his fumble on Minnesota's prior possession effectively sealed his team's second straight defeat. In back-to-back weeks, Cousins has barely topped 200 yards despite throwing a combined 77 times. Those struggles have resulted in just 17 points for the Vikings, leaving the signal-caller in clear need of improvement ahead of Week 15's visit from the Dolphins.

Wilson completed 10 of 20 passes for a career-low 72 yards and an interception in Monday's 21-7 win over the Vikings. He also rushed seven times for 61 yards.

The game was determined by strong defensive efforts on both sides, and Wilson simply couldn't get anything going through the air. In four red-zone trips, Wilson missed on all three pass attempts, was sacked twice, and threw an interception on a play that started on the one-yard line. Despite the troubles, his 40-yard run late in the fourth quarter set up a Chris Carson touchdown that ended up as the game winner. Wilson is set up for a palate cleanser Week 15 against the 49ers, who he threw four scores against last week.

Coach John Harbaugh suggested Jackson (ankle) could lose some snaps to Joe Flacco (hip), Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. "It stands to reason that if Joe's ready to go, he'll be part of the game plan," Harbaugh said Monday. "He's too good of a player not to be."

This isn't the first time Harbaugh has mentioned the possibility of using both quarterbacks, only this week there's actually a good chance Flacco will be ready to play. Meanwhile, Jackson is dealing with an ailment of his own, though Harbaugh expects the rookie to be okay for a Week 15 home game against the Buccaneers. Jackson reportedly walked around the locker room without a noticeable limp after missing the final two snaps of Sunday's 27-24 loss to Kansas City. The Ravens' quarterback situation will once again require close attention, with Jackson potentially losing a sizable portion of his fantasy appeal if the ankle is still an issue and/or Flacco is expected to get some snaps.

Darnold (foot) and coach Todd Bowles both expect the quarterback to be fine for Saturday's game against the Texans, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Bowles said the injury to Darnold's right foot is different from the issue that caused a three-game absence, but it's hard to imagine they aren't related in any way. Regardless, the rookie missed just one drive during Sunday's game in Buffalo, ultimately leading the Jets to 14 points in the fourth quarter to secure a 27-23 win. While he doesn't expect to miss any more time, Darnold likely will have a spot on the team's Week 15 injury report.

Jackson (ankle) is on track for another start Week 15 against the Buccaneers, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Joe Flacco (hip) is expected to return from a four-game absence, but he'll likely serve as the No. 2 quarterback unless there's a complication with Jackson's ankle injury. The rookie first-round pick missed the final two snaps of Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss in Kansas City, but X-rays came back negative and he reportedly walked around the locker room without a limp after the game. His unparalleled reliance on running means any lingering ankle soreness would be problematic from a fantasy standpoint even if he's cleared to make another start.

Tannehill (ankle) is walking around without any help Monday, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

Tannehill missed part of the second quarter in Sunday's 34-33 win over the Patriots, returning after halftime to eventually play a role in the thrilling finish. He's still dealing with some soreness Monday, but Wolfe and Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald both get the impression Tannehill will be fine to start Sunday in Minnesota. The quarterback figures to be limited, at best, when the Dolphins release their initial Week 15 practice report Wednesday.

X-rays on Jackson's injured ankle conducted after Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs returned negative, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The rookie believes he'll be ready to play Week 15 against the Buccaneers.

For the second week in a row, Jackson was removed from a game with an injury that didn't turn out to be serious. He once again proved shaky as a passer -- he completed 13 of 24 attempts for 147 yards and two touchdowns -- and lost a fumble, but he carved up the Chiefs on the ground for 71 yards on 13 carries. The fact that the Ravens nearly scored a road upset against the AFC's top team is probably enough to earn Jackson another start Week 15, despite longtime starting quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) trending toward being available for that contest.

Dobbs completed four of nine passes for 24 yards and an interception during Sunday's 24-21 loss to Oakland. He also ran for 15 yards on two carries.

This was the first extended look at Dobbs in a game that counted, and he was unable to do much of anything against a Raiders defense ranked 31st in the league in points allowed. Pittsburgh failed to put any points on the scoreboard during the four offensive series Dobbs played in place of Ben Roethlisberger (ribs) before Big Ben returned in a failed attempt to avoid a third consecutive loss. Expect Dobbs to be back to holding a clipboard in Week 15 against New England.

Trubisky completed 16 of 30 pass attempts for 110 yards, a touchdown and three interceptions in Sunday's 15-6 win over the Rams. He added 23 rushing yards on six carries.

Trubisky certainly didn't bring his A game to this contest, but his defense and rushing attack bailed him out in a winning effort. The Rams hadn't been an intimidating secondary to face for a good chunk of the season, but the full return of Aqib Talib could certainly be felt in the box score. Trubisky was also coming off a two-week hiatus due to a shoulder injury, but no reports of an aggravation were revealed. Assuming that news stands, the sophomore quarterback will look to improve on Sunday's poor outing against a struggling Packers squad in Week 15.

Goff completed 20 of 44 pass attempts for 180 yards, no touchdowns and four interceptions in Sunday's 15-6 loss to Chicago.

Goff was under constant pressure from the Bears' defensive line, which seemed to unsettle him on several uncharacteristically erratic throws. Not that fantasy owners will care about how the interceptions happened, but two of the gunslinger's four picks were rather fluky. One was the cause of his offensive lineman bumping into him, and the other was a failed Hail Mary attempt at the end of the first half. Still, few positives can be taken away from this performance. Goff has turned in two duds since coming off the bye week, but luckily for his owners, the Eagles' porous secondary -- which was just shredded for 400-plus yards by Dak Prescott -- comes to town for a Week 15 matchup, so a bounce-back game could be in store, especially after Sunday's humbling loss.
