Jackson has been diagnosed with a PCL sprain in his left knee, which will require 1-to-3 weeks in order to recover, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Jackson didn't log any snaps after picking up a knee injury on the last play of the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Broncos. The issue initially was termed a mild left knee sprain, but testing didn't reveal its extent until Tuesday. Coach John Harbaugh called Jackson "week-to-week" Monday, while adding that the quarterback was less likely to be able to suit up Sunday in Pittsburgh, according to Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun. Assuming Jackson can't play this weekend, Tyler Huntley will earn his fifth start over the last two seasons in place of the team's No. 1 QB.

Dalton completed 20 of 28 passes for 229 yards and one touchdown during Monday's 17-16 loss to the Buccaneers.

Dalton logged one of his more efficient performances of the season, accumulating 8.2 yards per attempt against a Tampa Bay defense that was tied for fifth in yards per attempt allowed (6.6) coming into Week 13. However, the veteran still posted fewer than 250 passing yards for the eighth time in his 10 starts. His scoring production also remained limited by New Orleans' inefficiency in the red zone, as the team settled for field goals of 38, 21 and 29 yards. This unit will now have a bye week to rest and recover before taking on the Falcons' 26th-ranked passing defense in Week 15.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Garoppolo continues to undergo testing on his broken left foot, but there's a growing belief that the quarterback avoided a Lisfranc injury, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Garoppolo made an early departure from Sunday's game against the Dolphins and needed a cart to get to the locker room. Afterward, he was diagnosed with a fractured foot that's expected to require season-ending surgery, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. Having said that, until the extent of the injury is known, Garoppolo's status is in some limbo. In the meantime, the 49ers will entrust the offense to rookie seventh-round pick Brock Purdy, who complete 25 of 37 passes for 210 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 33-17 win. As for the rest of the signal-callers on San Francisco's roster, Trey Lance (ankle) remains on injured reserve, while Jacob Eason is on the practice squad, so moves likely will be made in the coming days to bolster the position.

Wolford (neck) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's injury report, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

The Rams didn't practice, so Monday's report was simply an estimate. Wolford drew the start Week 13 with Matthew Stafford (neck) on IR and played all but one offensive snap. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but Wolford will have two more chances to practice this week before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Thursday's matchup against the Raiders. If Wolford is sidelined, Bryce Perkins would be the next man up under center.

Detroit signed Dobbs to its practice squad Monday.

Just a week after being waived by Cleveland, Dobbs has found another opportunity to make an impression with the Lions. Barring multiple injuries, it's unlikely he's elevated from the practice squad any time soon.

Head coach Robert Saleh said Wilson will be a healthy inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

Mike White will draw a third straight start, and Joe Flacco will operate as the backup, leaving Wilson out of the mix again. Saleh added that the plan is for Wilson to get back on the field at some point this season, but the Jets don't appear to be in a hurry to make that move, especially if White continues to play at a high level.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Jackson (knee) is "week-to-week," and added that the quarterback is less likely to play Sunday against the Steelers, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Jackson was knocked out of this past Sunday's 10-9 win over the Broncos due to a knee injury, and while his initial test results appear to be encouraging, the star quarterback may be trending more towards doubtful than questionable at this point. He's believed to be dealing with a mild left knee sprain, but there hasn't been official confirmation on a diagnosis. Tyler Huntley, who led a game-winning touchdown drive against Denver, would likely operate as the Ravens' primary signal-caller if Jackson is forced to miss any more game action.

Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Stafford's neck injury isn't a long-term issue, and the quarterback is expected to have a "healthy offseason," Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

This essentially confirms Stafford is done for the year, which was expected after he was placed on IR ahead of Sunday's loss to Seattle due to a spinal cord contusion. However, this appears to be a promising update for the future, as a healthy offseason should allow Stafford to work out some of the kinks that led to a disappointing 2022 campaign.

Jackson is believed to have suffered a mild left knee sprain in Sunday's 10-9 win over the Broncos, but a firm diagnosis for his injury won't arrive until the results of his MRI on Monday are made available, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Jackson suffered the injury on the final play of the first quarter of Sunday's game, when Broncos defender Jonathan Cooper landed on top of him on a sack. The signal-caller was evaluated in a medical tent on the sideline before heading to the locker room, with the Ravens then ruling him out for the day coming out of halftime. Backup Tyler Huntley stepped in and guided the Ravens to a go-ahead touchdown drive in the final minute, and he would be in line to start the team's Week 14 game in Pittsburgh next weekend if Jackson is unable to play. For now, the Ravens seem hopeful that Jackson avoided a major injury, even though head coach John Harbaugh suggested after Sunday's game that the star quarterback was somewhere between day-to-day and week-to-week, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. Unless the MRI reveals more serious damage to Jackson's knee than anticipated, Rapoport relays that the Ravens are optimistic the 25-year-old will need to miss just one game at the most.

Coach Doug Pederson said Lawrence will undergo an MRI on his left foot Monday, but the quarterback is trending in the right direction, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Lawrence took a hard hit on the final play of the first half and bent his left leg awkwardly, but he was able to get to the locker room under his own power and was back on the field to start the second half. It appears the MRI is merely precautionary, but the results should provide further clarity on Lawrence's availability for practice this week.
