Siemian received an injection in his shoulder following Sunday's game against the Saints, but head coach Gary Kubiak expects his condition to benefit from the Broncos' current bye week, Lindsay Jones of USA Today reports.

Siemian's non-throwing shoulder has reportedly been bothering him since he initially injured it in Week 4. That incident resulted in a one-game absence, but he's reassumed Denver's starting quarterback duties ever since. His performance level has been up and down lately, but after getting a shot after Sunday's latest game, Siemian will now get a needed rest period during the Broncos' bye week, which should help feel better once the team reconvenes.

Prescott will continue to be the Cowboys' starting quarterback, according to owner and general manager Jerry Jones, who followed Sunday's win over the Steelers by saying, "We're going to let this decision in this case make itself. Dak's got a hot hand and we're going to go with it," ESPN's Todd Archer reports.

Prescott's case to remain Dallas' starter has grown stronger with each passing week, and Sunday's 319-yard, two-touchdown performance in Pittsburgh proved no different. With 18 total touchdowns compared to just five turnovers, the rookie has led the Cowboys to eight straight wins and the top record in the NFC, emerging as the team's long-term answer at quarterback along the way. So even though Tony Romo (back) is expected to be active in Week 11 against the Ravens, Prescott will rightfully keep the reins to the Cowboys' offense, solidifying his fantasy stock for the foreseeable future.

Wilson completed 25 of 37 passes for 348 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions in Seattle's 31-24 at New England on Sunday.

Wilson looked his healthiest since Week 1. He's still not 100 percent, but he moved more like his normal self, avoiding the pass rush and scrambling to keep plays alive. The Seahawks also had an improved rushing game with C.J. Prosise, which helped Wilson and the passing game. Wilson connected with Doug Baldwin on all of his touchdown passes.

Cousins connected on 22 of 33 pass attempts for 262 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Vikings.

Cousins spread the ball around to seven different receivers and recorded just his second game of the season with multiple touchdown passes and no interceptions. He is among the league leaders in passing yards with an average mark of 301.7 and has accounted for multiple touchdowns in six of his last seven games. Cousins could be in for another productive outing next week against a Packers defense that has allowed 37 points per game over the last three.

Tannehill completed 17 of 24 passes for 240 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Chargers. He also gained 16 yards on three rushes and fumbled once.

Tannehill was efficient and mistake-free while throwing multiple touchdowns for the first time since Week 3. The yardage total was also Tannehill's highest in the last three weeks, as the Dolphins' offense has increasingly shifted to a run-centric approach behind Jay Ajayi. Sunday's balance was likely ideal for head coach Adam Gase, who saw his fifth-year signal-caller fire a 39-yard scoring strike to Kenny Stills and also connect with Damien Williams for an 18-yard touchdown. Meanwhile, Ajayi contributed a solid 4.2 yards per carry, while the Miami defense sealed the win with a pair of fourth-quarter interceptions of Philip Rivers. Tannehill will seek to continue his strong play against the Rams in Week 11.

Winston completed 23 of 33 passes for 312 yards with two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Bears.

Winston posted his best yardage total since Week 3 while also throwing multiple touchdown passes for the fourth consecutive game. He also turned in one of the more jaw-dropping plays of the season on a 38-yard completion to Mike Evans from the Bucs' 23-yard line, evading pressure multiple times and even retreating as far back as the end zone before stepping up to unleashing the downfield heave. In all, Winston hit nine different pass catchers on the day and completed a game-long pass of 43 yards to Freddie Martino in the process. The performance and victory were both badly needed from Tampa's perspective, and Winston will look to continue the positive momentum in a tough road tilt against the Chiefs in Week 11.

Prescott completed 22 of 32 passes for 319 yards and a pair of touchdowns Sunday against the Steelers. He also lost a fumble in the 35-30 win.

Prescott fumbled in his own end on the first drive of the game, but he was masterful the rest of the way en route to a career high in yardage and a sterling 121.7 passer rating. Both of his touchdowns were of the longer variety: an 83-yard catch and run from Ezekiel Elliott in the first quarter and a 50-yard strike to Dez Bryant in the third. Tony Romo (back) will serve as Prescott's backup next week against Baltimore, but with the rookie fresh off a terrific road win in which he accounted for multiple touchdowns for the seventh straight game, the job appears to be his for the foreseeable future.

Mariota completed 19 of 26 passes for 295 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 47-25 win over the Packers. He also gained eight rushing yards on four carries.

Mariota was masterful in Tennessee's 35-point first half, throwing for 216 yards and three touchdowns. While he wasn't asked to do as much in the second half, the second-year quarterback did manage to reach the four passing touchdown mark for the first time all season by connecting with rookie Tajae Sharpe from 33 yards out in the third. He has joined the weekly QB1 discussion with a 17:3 touchdown to interception ratio over the past six weeks.

Rodgers completed 31 of 51 passes for 371 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, and scrambled three times for 27 yards and another touchdown in Sunday's 47-25 loss to the Titans.

Rodgers took on a massive workload as the Packers took to the air in an attempt to erase a 21-0 first-quarter deficit. He mostly featured wide receivers Davante Adams and Jordy Nelson, who combined for 18 catches, 282 yards and a touchdown. While Rodgers has eclipsed 300 passing yards only twice all season, he does have 12 passing touchdowns over the past four weeks. The Packers still aren't mustering much on the ground, so Rodgers is going to have to keep throwing touchdowns in bunches to keep them in games.

Siemian completed 25 of 40 passes for 258 yards, two touchdowns and two picks in Sunday's win over the Saints.

When he was on, Siemian was deadly accurate and helped lead Denver to the comeback win. He also played a huge role in handing New Orleans the lead, with two truly awful forced throws that were intercepted and a handful of others that weren't. There was some debate as to whether Siemian would retain the starting job over rookie Paxton Lynch after the bye. Sunday likely pushed those conversations to a later date, but if Siemian retains the starting job something will have to be done to help him against the rush. The young quarterback was harassed by New Orleans' rush to the tune of six sacks and several of Siemian's errant throws were influenced by the rush. A few of those sacks were due to poor pass protection or blitzes that weren't picked up. There were also times where Siemian seemed to drop too far back or step too far up in the face of the rush, doing his blockers no favors.
