Mahomes completed 16 of 27 pass attempts for 154 yards, no passing touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing five times for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers.

Mahomes produced his worst passing performance through six games this season, but he salvaged his fantasy day by generating his best rushing line against San Francisco in a rematch of last year's Super Bowl. The deceptively fast quarterback performed a ball fake on a scramble that allowed him to split three defenders for 33 yards. Mahomes finished off that same drive by trucking the only defender that stood between him and the end zone for his first rushing touchdown of the season. The Chiefs remain undefeated heading into a soft road matchup against the Raiders next Sunday.

Stafford (back) completed 14 of 23 pass attempts for 154 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 20-15 win over the Raiders.

Stafford entered this contest dealing with a sore back, but he had the bye week to rest and did not appear limited Sunday. The veteran quarterback simply cruised in the back seat while the running game (both touchdowns) and defense (four takeaways) drove Los Angeles to its second victory of the year. Stafford's low-use game marked the first time this season that he has failed to reach 200 passing yards. With just three touchdowns to six turnovers through six weeks, Stafford makes for a middling fantasy option in a tough matchup against Minnesota on Thursday Night Football in Week 8.

Daniels (ribs) will undergo further testing Monday on the injury that forced him out of Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Head coach Dan Quinn didn't have an immediate update on Daniels' status after the game, though the quarterback was in good spirits and celebrating with teammates after the game. Washington kept rolling right along with backup quarterback Marcus Mariota after Daniels' absence, but clarity on which quarterback is likely to start against the Bears in Week 8 won't be provided until the results of Daniels' tests Monday are revealed.

Lock completed three of eight passes for six yards after replacing Daniel Jones for the fourth quarter of Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Eagles. He added 13 rushing yards on his lone carry.

After the game, Brian Daboll quashed any notion that he was considering a more permanent switch at quarterback, as Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports that the Giants' head coach still views Jones as his starter. Lock didn't do anything to force a QB controversy on his own, however, leading the Giants to zero points on three drives and committing two fumbles, losing one of them. It's the most extensive action Lock has seen this season, but the 27-year-old will likely be back on the bench in Week 8 against the Steelers.

Jones completed 14 of 21 passes for 99 yards and gained 20 rushing yards on five carries in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Eagles.

With the game out of reach, Jones got benched in the fourth quarter and was replaced by Drew Lock. The move doesn't seem to be an indication that head coach Brian Daboll is contemplating a more permanent switch however, as Daboll said after the game that he was just looking to "create a spark" with his team down 25 points while making it clear that Jones is still viewed as the team's starting quarterback, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. Jones has now failed to produce a touchdown for the third time in the last four games, but he'll get a chance to rebound Week 8 against the Steelers.

Burrow completed 15 of 25 passes for 181 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 21-14 win over Cleveland. He added three rushes for minus-3 yards.

Burrow and the Bengals' offense had nothing going in the first half, as he managed only 81 yards on 15 attempts while being sacked three times. While still far from prolific, he did manage a better second half, which was highlighted by touchdown throws of 18 and 25 yards to record his fifth multi-score performance in seven games this season. It is worth noting that Burrow has just 28 and 25 attempts in his last two matchups while playing from ahead, an indication that his production may be heavily dictated by game script moving forward.

Hurts completed 10 of 14 passes for 114 yards and a touchdown and added 22 yards and two TDs on seven carries in Sunday's 28-3 win over the Giants.

While he didn't need to air it out much after hitting A.J. Brown for a 41-yard score in the second quarter, Hurts got into the end zone himself on two second-half Brotherly Shoves to double his rushing TD total on the season. It's the third time in six games this year Hurts has failed to throw for at least 200 yards, but he's likely to need to rely on his arm a lot more Week 8 in a potential barn burner against Joe Burrow and the Bengals.

The finger injury Thompson-Robinson suffered Sunday against the Bengals is not believed to be major, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

That said, Rapoport notes that how Thompson-Robinson's finger responds to treatment and how he can grip a football will determine his availability for next weekend's game against the Ravens. With fears that Deshaun Watson has suffered a season-ending Achilles injury, Thompson-Robinson, if available, and Jameis Winston are candidates to handle the Browns' QB duties going forward.

Richardson completed 10 of 24 passes for 129 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Dolphins. He added 56 rushing yards on 14 carries.

The second-year quarterback had another poor statistical performance in his first game action since suffering an oblique strain in Week 4, but there were some glimmers of hope. Richardson looked more comfortable throwing the ball in the second half as he led Indianapolis to 13 straight points, and coach Steve Steichen was more willing to call designed runs for the mobile QB -- his 14 carries were a season high. and his 56 yards led the team while tying his season high. Most importantly, Richardson came out of the game healthy, setting him up for a clash with the Texans in Week 8.

Daniels won't return to Sunday's game versus the Panthers due to a rib injury.

After a 46-run to kick off the Commanders' first possession, Daniels was seen grabbing at his midsection until the team was set up for a successful Austin Seibert field-goal attempt. Daniels then got examined on the bench and in sideline tent before going to the locker room, where the CBS broadcast reported that he was undergoing X-rays. After halftime, he rejoined his teammates on the sideline in street clothes, ending Week 7 with six yards on 2-for-2 passing and three carries for 50 yards. Marcus Mariota will direct Washington's offense for as long as Daniels may be sidelined.
