Wolford (ribs) practiced Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Wolford left in the fourth quarter of Saturday's exhibition loss to the Jaguars after taking a hit that resulted in a roughing the passer call. The Wake Forest product's return to the field Monday will help keep him in the running for the No. 2 role at QB behind Baker Mayfield, although Kyle Trask is considered the frontrunner for the job.

Stafford (hamstring) participated in stretching and individual work at Monday's practice but was held out of team drills, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Stafford returned to practice on an individual basis Monday, a positive step in the right direction after he departed the field last Wednesday as a result of hamstring tightness. Coach Sean McVay said Stafford's limitations are precautionary, and he simply "wanted to be smart with him," noting that "he was obviously very upset at me that he wasn't practicing today." Even if he was fully healthy, Stafford wouldn't be in contention to start Los Angeles' preseason finale against the Texans on Saturday, but it sounds like the veteran signal-caller is on track to play Week 1 against the Lions on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Dobbs may be the frontrunner to back up Brock Purdy in San Francisco after his performance in a 16-10 win over the Saints on Sunday, Kevin Patra of the team's official site reports.

Dobbs led the 49ers on three scoring drives while completing 12 of his 21 passing attempts for 133 yards, and also ran the ball three times for 25 yards and a touchdown. The Tennessee product is considered to be competing with Brandon Allen for the job, with head coach Kyle Shannahan not tipping his hand, stating, "Dobbs got to play a little bit more and I thought he did a real good job leading on some of those drives. When Brandon came in, he did the same. It was very similar to last week. The games have been tight, the practices have been tight. So, it's a good problem we have right now."

Coach Dan Quinn announced Monday that Daniels will open the regular season as Washington's starting quarterback, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Daniels has effectively operated as the Commanders' starting QB throughout training camp, with Marcus Mariota (groin) working as his backup, so to see the rookie No. 2 overall pick officially slated to open Week 1 under center doesn't come as a surprise. In two preseason appearances so far, Daniels has been impressive, especially during Saturday night's loss to the Dolphins. Daniels played the Commanders' first two drives versus Miami and completed 10 of 12 passes for 78 yards, while rushing twice for 13 yards. Even if Daniels takes some time to fully adapt to the competition level of the NFL, his rushing capabilities will immediately thrust him onto the fantasy radar as a starter Week 1 versus the Buccaneers.

Coach Andy Reid said Monday that Mahomes and other starters are unlikely to play in Thursday's preseason game against Chicago, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Mahomes played the first two preseason games and completed 11 of 18 passes for 120 yards, with highlights including a 37-yard completion to rookie Xavier Worthy during Saturday's loss to the Lions. Marquise Brown's health is perhaps the biggest question for Kansas City's offense ahead of a Week 1 home game against the Ravens after the wideout suffered a sternoclavicular injury Aug. 10. A recovery timeline of 4-to-6 weeks was reported shortly thereafter, putting Brown in serious doubt for the Week 1 rematch of last season's AFC Championship Game.

Coach Doug Pederson suggested Monday that Lawrence and other starters will play "maybe two quarters" in Friday's preseason game at Atlanta, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Lawrence played one drive in the preseason opener at Kansas City and none in Saturday's exhibition win over Tampa Bay. It sounds like he'll get a lot more work in the final tune-up before a Week 1 matchup with Miami.

Stafford (hamstring) is going through individual drills at the start of practice Monday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Stafford missed some time at practice last week due to hamstring tightness, and while coach Sean McVay's confidence in the veteran quarterback's ability to resume practicing Monday teetered over the weekend, he's now back on the field for individual drills. Even if Stafford isn't yet cleared to practice in full, seeing him already back on the field alleviates serious concerns about his health. Regardless, Stafford won't be in contention to suit up for Los Angeles' preseason finale against the Texans this Saturday.

Dobbs was the first backup quarterback to enter Sunday's exhibition contest for San Francisco.

Dobbs wound up completing 57 percent of his passes for 133 yards and a rushing touchdown. Fellow backup Brandon Allen started the last preseason contest ahead of the Passtronaut, but the players reversed roles while serving as the reserves against the Saints. Brock Purdy (2-for-6, 11 yards) is the unquestioned starter despite some rusty throws Sunday, but Dobbs may have leaped ahead of Allen based on both production and usage as Week 1 approaches.

Herbert (foot) threw on the field before Saturday's preseason game against the Rams, but he didn't move around much, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Popper notes that the QB mostly threw from a stationary stance during pregame warmups. It's nonetheless a good sign that Herbert has made progress, with the on-field appearance coming a couple days after he was spotted working out in the weight room without a walking boot. Herbert hasn't practiced since the end of July due to a plantar fascia injury, but there hasn't been any indication of concern about his availability for Week 1 against the Raiders.

Nix may be named as the Broncos' starting quarterback this week, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Stevens expects coach Sean Payton to make an announcement in the coming days, after Nix completed eight of nine passes for 80 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-2 win over Green Bay while leading the Broncos to 10 points on their first two drives. Nix also was solid in the preseason opener -- 15-for-21 passing for 125 yards and a TD -- and his scrambling has been encouraging from a fantasy standpoint (six rush attempts for 29 yards in two games). Veteran quarterback Jarrett Stidham has been much less impressive this preseason, completing 11 of 18 passes for 102 yards with one rushing TD and two interceptions.
