  • Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Another monster game in OT win

    Mahomes completed 35 of 53 attempts for 377 yards, with two touchdowns and one interception during Sunday's 27-24 win against the Ravens.

    Trotting onto the field facing a touchdown deficit with 4:04 remaining in regulation against the Ravens, Mahomes was entrusted with a golden opportunity to further bolster his sterling MVP resume. With help from a miraculous cross-field throw to Tyreek HIll that yielded 48 yards, Mahomes led his team downfield to tie the score at 24 late in the fourth quarter, as the Chiefs eventually prevailed over Baltimore with an overtime field goal. Mahomes has been ridiculously productive from the jump this season, but he's rattled off eight straight games with multiple passing touchdowns and at least 249 passing yards (averaging 348.4 passing YPG, with five performances of four or more touchdowns over that span). In Week 15 he and Kansas City take on a Chargers defense that ranks top 10 in both passing yards allowed per game (230.9) and interceptions forced (12).

  • Ryan Tannehill QB | TEN

    Dolphins' Ryan Tannehill: Nursing ankle after comeback win

    Tannehill had a limp and his right ankle taped following Sunday's 34-33 walk-off win over the Patriots, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Tannehill completed 14 of 19 passes for 265 yards and three touchdowns and rushed once for 13 yards, while he briefly left game just before halftime. Overall, it was an efficient afternoon for the 30-year-old, which was capped with a 69-yard touchdown to Kenyan Drake as time expired that featured two laterals to secure the improbable victory. The miraculous play put the Dolphins at 7-6 and provides a boon to their playoff hopes heading into next week's game against the Vikings, though Tannehill's health remains a worthwhile concern.

  • Deshaun Watson QB | CLE

    Texans' Deshaun Watson: Kept in check in loss

    Watson completed 27 of 38 passing attempts for 267 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Colts. He also rushed for 35 yards on five carries.

    Watson led three touchdown drives on the day, but Alfred Blue and Lamar Miller took two of them in from short distances. The 23-year-old found DeAndre Hopkins over the middle for a seven-yard score in the fourth quarter to draw within three points, but the Texans were unable to complete the comeback. Despite the loss, the game marks Watson's best passing effort since Week 5. The Texans head to New York to take on the Jets in Week 15.

  • Lamar Jackson QB | BAL

    Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Downplays ankle issue

    When asked about an ankle injury he suffered late in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, Jackson replied, "I'm good," Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    The issue caused Jackson to miss the end of Baltimore's 27-24 loss Sunday, but it doesn't appear to be something that will affect his Week 15 availability. It remains to be seen, however, if his practice participation will be impacted at all. The Ravens' QB situation will thus be worth monitoring in the coming days, with the health of Joe Flacco (hip) improving.

  • Jameis Winston QB | NYG

    Buccaneers' Jameis Winston: Inaccurate in divisional loss

    Winston completed 18 of 38 passes for 213 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the Buccaneers' 28-14 loss to the Saints on Sunday. He also rushed five times for 47 yards.

    Winston's completion percentage dipped under 50.0 percent for the first time this season, although he did extend his streak of two-touchdown games to four. The four-year pro also posted a season-low 5.6 YPA, but he continued to provide some unexpected production on the ground by rushing for over 45 yards for a second consecutive week. Winston's one interception came on a last-gasp heave to Mike Evans with nine seconds remaining, a pass Marshon Lattimore brought down in the end zone. Winston will look to improve his overall numbers against the formidable Ravens defense in a Week 15 interconference battle.

  • Josh Johnson QB | CIN

    Redskins' Josh Johnson: Slated to start Week 15

    Coach Jay Gruden called Johnson the Redskins' starting quarterback Week 15 at Jacksonville, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports.

    At the 5:31 mark of the third quarter, Johnson took over for Mark Sanchez, who led the Redskins to just 19 yards on their first 10 possessions. Thereafter, Johnson led a pair of touchdown drives en route to 195 yards, one TD and one interception on 11-for-16 passing. The performance is an impressive one with less than a week in the program, and he clearly fared better than Sanchez, making Gruden's decision an easy one.

  • Lamar Jackson QB | BAL

    Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Exits game late

    Robert Griffin finished up Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Chiefs after Jackson exited the game late in overtime with an unspecified injury.

    Prior to being forced out of the game, Jackson completed 13 of 24 passes for 147 yards and two TDs and ran 13 times for 71 yards. His status will be worth monitoring in the coming days, especially with the health of fellow QB Joe Flacco (hip) improving.

  • Lions' Matthew Stafford: Suiting up Week 14

    Stafford (back) is listed as active Sunday in Arizona, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Stafford will shrug off the back injury that limited him in practice all week, making his 125th start in a row in the process. Although he can be relied upon to be available from game to game, his current weapons don't give him the best chance to succeed. With Golden Tate in Philadelphia, Marvin Jones (knee) on injured reserve and Kerryon Johnson (knee) inactive, Stafford has had modest production the last two contests, totaling 481 yards and one touchdown versus three interceptions.

    Dolphins' Ryan Tannehill: Returns to game

    Tannehill, who headed to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Patriots with a possible ankle injury, was able to return to the contest.

    Brock Osweiler finished up the first half at QB for the Dolphins, but fortunately for the team, Tannehill was able to return to the field at the start the third quarter of Sunday's contest.

    Dolphins' Ryan Tannehill: Heads to locker room

    Tannehill headed to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Patriots with a possible ankle injury.

    Tannehill has been working through a shoulder issue, but the injury that forced him out of Sunday's contest is a new one. Brock Osweiler is now in at QB for the Dolphins.
