Gabriel completed 13 of 18 passes for 116 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed four times for 12 yards in the Browns' 31-6 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

The rookie wasn't asked to do much, and the fact the Browns were able to jump out to a 17-6 halftime lead gave head coach Kevin Stefanski flexibility in how he deployed his young signal-caller. Quinshon Judkins, who scored three rushing touchdowns, and the Browns defense, which picked off Tua Tagovailoa three times and also recorded a pair of sacks, did most of the heavy lifting, leading to Gabriel's lowest passing yardage total yet in three games as a starter. The 2025 third-round pick will face off with Drake Maye and the Patriots on the road in Week 8 next Sunday afternoon.

Tagovailoa completed 12 of 23 passes for 130 yards with no touchdowns and three interceptions while adding three rushes for six yards in the Dolphins' 31-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

The Dolphins offense hit its 2025 nadir to date in the lopsided defeat, and Tagovailoa's play stood out front and center. The sixth-year veteran's first interception of the day -- which resulted in a pick-six -- came on a deflection off De'Von Achane's hands, although Tagovailoa's throw was high and off target. The subsequent pair of picks transpired on back-to-back possessions in the fourth quarter, and head coach Mike McDaniel opted to keep the 2020 first-round pick on the sideline after the second of those miscues. Tagovailoa came into the afternoon fresh off another three-interception tally at home versus the Chargers in Week 6, and it may be fair to question his hold on the starting job heading into a thorny Week 8 road matchup against a talented Falcons defense.

Herbert completed 37 of 55 passes for 420 yards and three touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts. He added 31 rushing yards on six carries.

The 420 yards were a career high for Herbert, exceeding the 405 yards he racked up in 2023 during a Week 3 meeting with the Vikings. Most of that production came in the second half Sunday, including all three of the QB's touchdowns -- strikes to Quentin Johnston and Keenan Allen in the third quarter and Oronde Gadsden in the fourth, all in the red zone -- as the Chargers tried in vain to rally from a 23-3 halftime deficit. Herbert will take a 13:6 TD:INT through seven starts into a Week 8 meeting with the 2025 edition of a Minnesota defense that just got torched by Jalen Hurts.

Prescott completed 21 of 30 pass attempts for 264 yards and three touchdowns while taking five carries for seven yards in Sunday's 44-22 rout of the Commanders.

Prescott welcomed his favorite target CeeDee Lamb (ankle) back with open arms and a beautifully placed ball for a 74-yard touchdown on Dallas' final possession of the first quarter. The 31-year-old Prescott finished the contest registering at least three touchdown passes for the fourth consecutive week. A red-hot Prescott upped his season totals to 1,881 passing yards and 16 touchdowns on a career-best 72 percent completion rate through seven starts. With all of his weapons back at full strength, Prescott should be treated as a top-10 fantasy QB heading into next Sunday's tilt against Denver.

Rattler completed 20 of 32 passes for 233 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions while adding two rushes for 12 yards in the Saints' 26-14 loss to the Bears on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Rattler came into the day having thrown just one interception and not yet losing a fumble, but the Bears defense put an end to that mostly clean slate. Chicago snagged interceptions at its own 32, 12 and 22-yard lines, consistently snuffing out scoring threats. Rattler did continue to put up solid numbers outside the turnovers and connected with favorite target Chris Olave for touchdown passes of 21 and 14 yards. Rattler will be back in his friendlier home environment for a Week 8 divisional showdown against the Buccaneers.

Coach Dan Quinn said after Sunday's loss to the Cowboys that Daniels will undergo an MRI on his injured hamstring Monday, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

Quinn said Daniels wanted to go back in the game against Dallas, but the Commanders ultimately opted to hold him out with Washington trailing by multiple scores. The Commanders have an extra day of rest ahead of next Monday night's Week 8 date with the Chiefs. If Daniels is deemed unfit to play against Kansas City, Marcus Mariota would draw the start under center.

Fields completed six of 12 passes for 46 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Panthers. He rushed the ball four times for 22 yards.

Fields struggled to get the offense moving, as the Jets picked up only six first downs and 97 net yards through the first two quarters. He was benched coming out of the half in favor of Tyrod Taylor, though Taylor wasn't much more effective, throwing two interceptions to doom any chance of a Jets comeback. After the game, coach Aaron Glenn didn't commit to a quarterback for the Jets' Week 8 matchup against the Bengals, instead saying it would be a position he needs to evaluate, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.

Coach Jonathan Gannon said after Sunday's loss to the Packers that Murray (foot) remains the Cardinals' starting quarterback when healthy, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Murray suffered a mid-foot sprain in the Week 5 loss to the Titans, and Jacoby Brissett has started the last two contests, both narrow losses to the Colts and Packers by a combined eight points. Brissett again had Arizona competitive Sunday against Green Bay, completing 25 of 36 pass attempts for 279 yards and two touchdowns, adding six rushing attempts for 26 yards with his legs. In two starts under center, Brissett has completed 52 of 80 passes for 599 yards, four touchdowns and just one interception. He's rushed nine times for 45 yards. The Cardinals have looked more competitive with Brissett at the controls, but Murray still has his coach's support as the starter. Arizona has a Week 8 bye before going on the road to face Dallas in Week 9.

Jones completed 23 of 34 passes for 288 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers. He added seven rushing yards on five carries and threw a two-point conversion to Michael Pittman.

The 28-year-old QB threw multiple TD passes for a third straight game, hitting Pittman and Tyler Warren for scores in the red zone during the second quarter. Jones might have posted even better numbers in a more competitive contest, but the Colts focused on killing the clock in the fourth quarter after building a 38-17 lead. Jones already appears to be almost a shoe-in for the Comeback Player of the Year Award after seven weeks in charge of the Indy offense, leading the team to an NFL-best 6-1 record, and he'll take a 71.0 percent completion rate and 10:3 TD:INT into a Week 8 meeting with the Titans.

Daniels (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Daniels injured his hamstring on the Commanders' first possession of the second half, and with the game somewhat out of hand already at 44-22 early in the fourth quarter, Washington will not send him back out on the field. Prior to getting hurt, Daniels completed 12 of 22 passes for 156 yards and one touchdown, adding eight carries for 35 yards. Marcus Mariota will finish out the Week 7 contest. Daniels will have an extra day to recover ahead of a Week 8 date with the Chiefs on Monday, Oct. 27.
