Bagent completed two of three passes for 27 yards along with two rushes for seven yards in the Bears' 52-21 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Bagent was in for mop-up duty in a game in which the Bears were blown out. The veteran is only expected to see time in blowouts or if Caleb Williams misses time.

Murray completed 17 of 25 pass attempts for 220 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing seven times for 32 yards in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Panthers.

It was a tale of two halves for Murray, who had his team up comfortably going into the break but was barely clinging onto victory when time expired. An untimely interception to end a 70-yard drive in the fourth quarter played a huge role in letting Carolina back into this contest. It was Murray's first interception of the season to go along with his three passing touchdowns and 70 rushing yards through two starts in 2025. The dual-threat QB is shaping up to be a high-floor, low-ceiling fantasy option in a road matchup against a tough 49ers defense next Sunday.

Gabriel completed three of three passes for 19 yards and threw a touchdown pass in Sunday's 41-17 loss to Baltimore in Week 2.

The Browns' offense stumbled for a second consecutive week, and starting quarterback Joe Flacco was eventually removed late in the fourth quarter with the Ravens up by 31 points. Gabriel entered for the Browns' final possession, which ended with the rookie quarterback's eight-yard touchdown pass to fellow rookie Dylan Sampson. Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski told Zac Jackson of The Athletic that he's not considering a quarterback change. That may be the case in September, but the Browns' 0-2 start could snowball, and playing a 40-year-old quarterback may not be the best path forward for the franchise.

Burrow is feared to have suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury, which would require surgery and a recovery period of at least three months, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.

Burrow exited Sunday's 31-27 win over the Jaguars in the second quarter due to the injury. The star quarterback is still evaluating his options, per Rapoport, but Burrow is likely to face a multi-week absence even if he finds a non-surgical treatment option. Jake Browning produced three total touchdowns after Burrow's injury and would be in line to take over as Cincinnati's starter in Burrow's absence. Browning went 4-3 when Burrow missed the final seven games of the 2023 season due to a torn ligament in his wrist.

Ward completed 19 of 33 passes for 175 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 33-19 loss to the Rams. He added four rushes for eight yards.

Ward struggled with efficiency for the second consecutive week, averaging only 5.3 yards per attempt. However, he showed off his playmaking ability while connecting with Elic Ayomanor for his first pro touchdown after scrambling for several seconds before throwing across his body for a nine-yard score. Ward also completed three passes of more than 20 yards, two of which went to Calvin Ridley, which was also an improvement over Week 1. Ward isn't trustworthy for standard fantasy formats yet, but he did seem to take a step forward in his second pro start.

Stafford completed 23 of 33 passes for 298 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 33-19 win over the Titans.

Stafford wasn't sharp in the first half, totaling only 106 yards while also throwing an interception just before halftime that set up a field goal for Tennessee. However, he completed three passes of at least 20 yards in the second half -- the longest of which was a 40-yard pass to Jordan Whittington -- and also capped two drives with touchdown passes of eight and 16 yards, respectively. Stafford has not appeared limited by a back injury that drew a lot of attention in the preseason, as he has averaged 8.8 yards per attempt with three touchdowns across two games.

Mahomes completed 16 of 29 pass attempts for 187 yards, one touchdown and one interception while taking seven carries for 66 yards and another score in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Eagles.

Mahomes and the Chiefs dropped to 0-2 on the year after suffering a loss at the hands of the team that embarrassed them in Super Bowl LIX last season. The final score was much closer this time around, but Philadelphia's defense held the superstar QB in check statistically. Mahomes continues to spread the ball around with top wideouts Rashee Rice (suspension) and Xavier Worthy (shoulder) out of action, dialing up nine different targets Sunday after completing passes to seven different receivers in last week's loss. Mahomes is going to continue to have to do the heavy lifting for Kansas City's offense ahead of a Week 3 matchup against the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football.

Hurts completed 15 of 22 pass attempts for 101 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions while rushing nine times for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 win over Kansas City.

Hurts managed to outduel Patrick Mahomes for the second time this calendar year in a Week 2 rematch of Super Bowl LIX. The 26-year-old Hurts has yet to throw a touchdown pass (or interception) through two starts in 2025, but his team has come out victorious on both occasions. Fantasy managers who drafted the dual-threat QB for his legs have been forced to rely almost exclusively on that part of his game for production early in the schedule. Hurts' rushing totals through two games (23-77-3) resemble that of an RB1 in fantasy, highlighting what an advantage it is to have a mobile QB. The Eagles may call on Hurts to air it out more against the high-powered Rams when the NFC contenders face off next Sunday.

Burrow is believed to have suffered a turf toe injury during Sunday's 31-27 win against the Jaguars, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

When Burrow took his second sack of the game in the second quarter, he remained on the turf while grabbing at his left foot and needed assistance from trainers to leave the field. He eventually was ruled out, ceding QB duties to backup Jake Browning, who ended up completing 21 of 32 passes for 241 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions while scoring a rushing TD from one yard out. Afterward, coach Zac Taylor told Ben Baby of ESPN.com that he didn't have the necessary information to provide an update on Burrow's health, but he eventually was seen with a walking boot on his left foot and using one crutch in the locker room, per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. If a diagnosis of turf toe is confirmed, Burrow likely would be in line for a handful of absences, starting with next Sunday's contest at Minnesota.

Browning replaced an injured Joe Burrow (toe) in Sunday's comeback win over the Jaguars. He completed 21 passes on 32 attempts for 241 yards and two touchdowns and ran for the game-winning touchdown. He also threw three interceptions.

Browning's interceptions were pretty rough, especially on the latter two throws. The Bengals will need him to tighten it up going forward as the schedule appears to be tougher. Burrow has torn toe ligaments and could be out several weeks, so the burden will likely fall to Browning in the near term.
