  • Mike White QB | CAR

    Mike White: Back with Carolina

    The Panthers signed White to the practice squad Tuesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    White will rejoin the team and serve as organizational quarterback depth behind Bryce Young and Andy Dalton in Carolina.

  • Jalen Hurts QB | PHI

    Eagles' Jalen Hurts: Throws team's only TD on MNF

    Hurts completed 15 of 26 pass attempts for 183 yards and a touchdown while taking five carries for 27 yards and a lost fumble in Monday's 10-7 win over Green Bay.

    Hurts fell victim to a frigid defensive battle at Lambeau Field on Monday Night Football. He coughed up his second fumble of the season at the end of a lengthy opening drive and followed that up with three punts and a turnover on downs in a scoreless first half. The 26-year-old came alive in the fourth quarter when he fired a 36-yard rainbow to DeVonta Smith for Philadelphia's only touchdown and game-winning score. Hurts may be asked to shoulder more of a load on offense Week 11 against a Lions offense that is clicking on all cylinders heading into Sunday Night Football.

  • Jordan Love QB | GB

    Packers' Jordan Love: Uninspired performance in loss

    Love completed 20 of 36 passes for 176 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions while adding five rushes for 28 yards in the Packers' 10-7 loss to the Eagles on Monday night. He committed two fumbles, losing one.

    Love's night didn't even live up to his middling numbers, as 71 of the veteran signal-caller's yards came on the last two drives. The Packers' five first-half possessions resulted in four punts and a lost fumble by Love on a sack, and he averaged a season-low 4.9 yards per attempt overall. Love also went without a touchdown pass for the second straight game while producing his fourth sub-200-yard tally of the campaign, leaving him with plenty of room for improvement in a Week 11 road matchup against the Giants on Sunday.

  • Sam Howell QB | PHI

    Eagles' Sam Howell: Emergency QB for MNF

    Howell (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Eagles' emergency third quarterback against the Packers on Monday.

    Howell is restricted from entering Monday's game unless Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee are both removed due to injury, illness or ejection. Howell has not appeared in a single regular-season game in 2025.

  • Joe Burrow QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Burrow: May be eyeing Thanksgiving return

    Burrow (toe) won't play Sunday against the Steelers after the Bengals designated him for return from injured reserve Monday, but the quarterback acknowledged that he's hopeful to begin available for Cincinnati's Thanksgiving Day game against the Ravens on Nov. 27, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports. "We'll see how these next couple weeks go," Burrow said, when asked about a potential return date. "There's a lot that goes into it. There's a lot of variables that you have to consider."

    One of those variables will be the Bengals' record as he works his way back from surgery to address a Grade 3 sprain of the big toe on his left foot, a procedure he underwent Sept. 19. In any case, it looks like veteran signal-caller Joe Flacco -- who is managing a shoulder issue of his own -- will draw at least two more starts for the 3-6 Bengals. In his return to practice Monday in a limited capacity, Burrow didn't participate in any 11-on-11 team drills, but he threw some passes to receivers while not facing any defenders.

  • Brock Purdy QB | SF

    49ers' Brock Purdy: Increasing odds to return to action

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Purdy (toe) will continue to increase his activity level this week, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    As it pertains to Purdy's first appearance since Week 4 due to a turf toe injury, Shanahan told David Lombardi of SFStandard.com that the 49ers "want three aggressive practices [from him], and we want to hear from him and make sure he feels good after them, too." This follows Shanahan's comments from Sunday, in which he relayed that Purdy "hopefully" will "have a chance this week," per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Wednesday's injury report ultimately will reveal Purdy's initial activity level for Week 11 prep, but if he's listed as full, it'll be a good indication that he's trending toward a return to action Sunday at Arizona. Mac Jones so far has earned eight spot starts in place of Purdy this season.

  • Joe Burrow QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Burrow: Practice window opens

    The Bengals announced Monday that Burrow (toe) has been designated for a return from IR and will practice in a limited capacity.

    Burrow now kicks off a 21-day window wherein his can practice without counting against the 53-man roster, allowing him to begin ramping up his activity level with the target of making a return to the lineup in December. The franchise quarterback is recovering from surgery undergone Sept. 21 to address a Grade 3 turf toe injury. Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network have confirmed that December remains the Bengals' tentative target for Burrow to retake the field, but it's encouraging to see him already ready to handle limited practice reps. Joe Flacco will continue operating as Cincinnati's starting quarterback until such time as Burrow gains full clearance, including Sunday on the road against Pittsburgh.

  • Justin Fields QB | NYJ

    Jets' Justin Fields: Coach quiet on starting QB again

    Jets coach Aaron Glenn declined Monday to name Fields or Tyrod Taylor as the team's starting quarterback for Thursday's divisional matchup on the road against New England, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

    Glenn waited until the last moment to name Fields the starter for Sunday's 27-20 win over the Browns despite having had a Week 9 bye to prepare, and per Al Iannazzone of Newsday, the head coach said he wouldn't "waste [his] time" answering questions about the quarterback situation entering Thursday's divisional contest. Fantasy managers in need of a Week 11 starter may need to roster both Fields and Taylor -- or, better yet, avoid the situation entirely -- until an official decision is announced. Fields struggled again despite eking out a win versus Cleveland, completing just six of 11 passes for 54 yards, one touchdown and one interception, with most of his passing yards coming on a 42-yard touchdown to Breece Hall on a screen pass. Part of Fields' issues can be attributed to Garrett Wilson (knee) having been forced out before securing a single catch, but with the No. 1 wideout now seemingly trending in the wrong direction for Week 11, it will be difficult to trust any part of New York's passing game regardless of who lines up under center.

  • Justin Herbert QB | LAC

    Chargers' Justin Herbert: Manages team to victory on SNF

    Herbert completed 20 of 33 pass attempts for 220 yards and a touchdown while rushing five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Steelers.

    Herbert posted a traditional "game manager" type stat line, taking good care of the football while doing enough to lift his team to victory. The loss of LT Joe Alt (ankle) to injured reserve was on full display, as the Chargers' signal-caller was sacked five times on Sunday Night Football. Herbert suffered an injury on one of the first-half sacks, but he was able to stay in the game after having his ankle taped up, according to ESPN's Kris Rhim. The 27-year-old showed no mobility limitations in the second half, which should help put his fantasy managers' thoughts at ease moving forward. Herbert will benefit from facing the Jaguars' 28th-ranked pass defense next Sunday in the Chargers' last game preceding the team's Week 12 bye.

  • Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT

    Steelers' Aaron Rodgers: Shut down by Chargers

    Rodgers completed 16 of 31 passes for 161 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 25-10 loss to the Chargers.

    The Steelers had minimal success moving the ball at any point when the outcome was in doubt, and Rodgers made several uncharacteristic mistakes. He took a safety midway through the first quarter and then overthrew his intended targets several times, including an interception late in the second quarter that led to a touchdown for the Chargers. Rodgers managed to lead a garbage-time drive late in the fourth quarter to rack up 64 yards and a touchdown to pad his stat line, but he has now averaged 6.1 yards per attempt or fewer in three straight games.
