The Colts have promoted Morris to their active roster.

While the Colts have not ruled Andrew Luck out for Thursday's game against the Steelers, the addition of Morris suggests that Luck will not be available for the contest. In such as scenario, Morris would back up Scott Tolzien on Thursday.

Carr completed 21 of 31 passes for 295 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception during Monday's win over the Texans.

Carr continued to show poise at the Raiders' helm following the team's bye week, leading them to their eighth win of the season as he added three more passing touchdowns. The improved offensive line continues to impress in their protection of Carr, not allowing a single sack during Monday's contest. The team rushed for just 30 total yards, however, making Carr's ability to throw for almost 300 that much more impressive. They'll host the Panthers in Week 12, who have struggled against opposing quarterbacks throughout the 2016 season.

Siemian threw well during Monday's practice after sitting out last week to rest his non-throwing shoulder , the Broncos' official website reports.

Siemian's been hobbled since landing awkwardly on his shoulder in Week 4 against Tampa Bay. He sat out Week 5, returned in Week 6 and hasn't been the same player since. His quarterback rating prior to his injury was an impressive 99.6, buoyed by a monster Week 3 in Cincinnati. His rating is 77.6 since and he's been far less accurate with the ball, completing 67.3 percent of his passes before the injury and 56.3 percent after. Whether his shoulder has been hampering him, defenses have figured him out, or the Broncos' inconsistent run game hasn't given him a proper complement is unknown at this point. The truth will be unveiled quickly as Siemian gets a tough Week 12 test against Kansas City's formidable secondary.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Jay Cutler (shoulder) is expected to miss multiple games, which will allow Barkley to start Sunday against the Titans.

Barkley's first and only action of the season occurred in Week 7, when Brian Hoyer suffered a broken forearm and no other quarterback was active. In the meantime, Cutler has started three consecutive games, but his shoulder injury could wipe away the rest of the campaign. Unless the Bears opt to test the free-agent market, Barkley will be under center this weekend, but his track record includes 55.4-percent passing, no touchdowns, and six interceptions in five career appearances.

Petty will serve as Ryan Fitzpatrick's backup for Sunday's outing against the Patriots, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Petty took the reins of the offense in the Jets' last game on Nov. 13 as Ryan Fitzpatrick tended to a sprained MCL, completing 19 of 32 passes for only 163 yards. Granted, Petty connected with Bilal Powell on a four-yard touchdown for his side's sole score, but he also tossed an interception during the two-minute drill and down 9-6 on the scoreboard. Petty is likely best-served holding a clipboard at this point, but if losses continue to mount, head coach Todd Bowles may be forced to turn back to the second-year signal-caller.

Rodgers completed 26 of 41 pass attempts for 351 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in Sunday's 42-24 loss to the Redskins. He added 33 yards on three carries.

Rodgers completed 63 percent of his passes and threw for at least three touchdowns without turning the ball over for just the third time in 10 tries. The Packers have endured a frustrating season, but Rodgers individually has been terrific of late with 16 total touchdowns and just four turnovers in his last five games. Now on a four-game losing streak with a struggling defense, he should be expected to continue his prolific form next week against the Eagles.

Cousins completed 21 of 30 pass attempts for 375 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in Sunday's 42-24 victory over the Packers. He added four yards on four carries.

Cousins put together perhaps his finest statistical outing of the season, registering his second-highest yardage output while managing three touchdowns and no turnovers for the first time. He is up to 17 touchdowns compared to 7 interceptions this season and has emerged as a top fantasy option after throwing for at least 296 yards six times in 10 tries. Cousins will look to carry this momentum forward into the Thanksgiving Day matchup with the Cowboys.

Mariota completed 25 of 38 passes for 290 yards and two touchdowns while rushing five times for 29 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss at Indianapolis.

Mariota struggled early, but got things going after falling behind 21-0. He connected with running back DeMarco Murray from three yards out with 20 seconds left in the first half, then hit Tajae Sharpe from 34 yards out in the third. While he couldn't complete the comeback here, evidence continues to mount that the second-year quarterback has made a major leap. He has 19 passing touchdowns and just three interceptions since Week 5.

Wilson completed 18 of 31 passes for 272 yards and a touchdown, and also caught a score in Sunday's 26-15 win over the Eagles.

Wilson wasn't doing much for most of the first half, but made a nice throw on the run to Jimmy Graham that resulted in a 35-yard touchdown midway through the second quarter. His touchdown catch came on a gadget play in the third quarter, as he ran a pass pattern after pitching the ball to Doug Baldwin. Although Wilson ran for just 19 yards on eight carries, he looks more spry in and out of the pocket, and seems to be over the ankle injury that bothered him for a big chunk of the year. Next up for Wilson are the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay.

Dalton completed 24 of 43 passes for 207 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions Sunday against the Bills. He also rushed four times for 10 yards and a touchdown in a 16-12 defeat.

Dalton took matters into his own hands by the goal line in the first quarter, running in from two yards out for his third rushing score of the season. He struggled after that, though, throwing for under 250 yards for just the third time this season and second game in a row. Dalton's struggles had a lot to do with the early exit of top receiver A.J. Green (hamstring), who could be out for the season. The Red Rocket's stock would take a major hit the rest of the way if that's the case.
