Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Browns' Jerry Jeudy: Season-best outing in Week 10
Jeudy caught six of 12 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets.
After a forgettable first half of the season, the mercurial wide receiver put forth an encouraging performance coming out of Cleveland's Week 9 bye. Jeudy scored his first touchdown of the season on a 22-yard catch in the second quarter. His 66 receiving yards at halftime matched Jeudy's full-game season high. Jeudy tacked on only 12 yards in the second half but finished with game-high totals in targets, catches and receiving yards. Given the lack of proven alternatives in Cleveland's wide receiver room, Jeudy should continue to command significant volume in Week 11 against the Ravens.

Quinshon Judkins RB | CLE
Browns' Quinshon Judkins: Gets 24 touches in loss
Judkins rushed 22 times for 75 yards and caught two of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets.
Judkins was battling a shoulder injury prior to Cleveland's Week 9 bye, but he handled a healthy workload against the Jets, coming one touch shy of his career-high 25. The rookie second-round pick is the clear No. 1 option in the backfield for the Browns heading into a Week 11 home game against the Ravens. Baltimore beat the Browns by 24 points back in Week 2, and Judkins' rushing workload could be limited again if the rematch plays out similarly.

Emeka Egbuka WR | TB
Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Paces pass catchers in loss
Egbuka brought in six of 13 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 28-23 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Egbuka reemerged as a force in the air attack after a quiet three-game stretch during which he topped out at four catches and 58 receiving yards in terms of single-game highs. The rookie first-round pick led the Bucs in both receiving yards and targets while checking in second in receptions to Cade Otton. The ongoing absences of Chris Godwin (fibula) and Mike Evans (IR, collarbone/concussion) continues to afford the Ohio State product the chance to serve as Baker Mayfield's top wide-receiver target, and even if Godwin manages to return for next Sunday's Week 11 matchup against the Bills, Egbuka figures to retain a sizeable role.

Dadrion Taylor-Demerson SAF | ARI
Cardinals' Dadrion Taylor-Demerson: Questionable to return Sunday
Taylor-Demerson (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.
Taylor-Demerson suffered an apparent ankle injury in the first half, and his status for the rest of the game is now uncertain. His absence carries the greatest impact on special teams.

TreVeyon Henderson RB | NE
Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Breaks off two long runs in win
Henderson rushed 14 times for 147 yards and two touchdowns while also bringing in his sole target for three yards in the Patriots' 28-23 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Henderson's career-best rushing yardage total was largely the result of 55- and 69-yard touchdown runs in the second half, plays on which the rookie's signature speed was on full display. Henderson filled the clear lead-back role in the road victory, as backfield mate Terrell Jennings exited the contest with a knee injury. Given his performance Sunday and the short turnaround for a Week 11 Thursday night matchup against the Jets, it appears Henderson will continue enjoying virtually full control of the backfield for that divisional contest.

Derrick Henry RB | BAL
Ravens' Derrick Henry: Limited production on 20 carries
Henry rushed the ball 20 times for 75 yards in Sunday's 27-19 win over the Vikings. He added three receptions on three targets for nine yards.
Henry saw at least 20 carries for the third time in his last four games, though he struggled to find much running room. He had long gains of 14 and 13 yards, but nine of his 20 rushing attempts went for two or fewer yards. Henry has now been held below 100 rushing yards in six of nine games for the campaign, with his six touchdowns propping up his fantasy value.

Juwan Johnson TE | NO
Saints' Juwan Johnson: Career-best day in win
Johnson caught all four of his targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-7 win over the Panthers.
The tight end put together a career-best day in terms of yardage, including a 30-yard touchdown from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough in the fourth quarter, the second straight game in which the duo has connected for a score. Johnson is having a breakout campaign in his sixth NFL season, putting together a 43-491-3 line on 61 targets through 10 games heading into the Saints' bye week.

Marlon Humphrey CB | BAL
Ravens' Marlon Humphrey: Nursing finger injury
Humphrey was not on the field late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 27-19 win over the Vikings due to a finger injury, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Humphrey played a key role in the Ravens' Week 10 win, logging four tackles (two solo) as well as an interception in the second quarter that led to a Tyler Loop 28-yard field goal 10 plays later. Humphrey will undergo further tests to determine the severity of his finger injury, which puts him in jeopardy of being sidelined for the Ravens' Week 11 AFC North tilt against the Browns on Sunday, Nov. 16.

James Cook RB | BUF
Bills' James Cook: Opportunities capped in loss
Cook rushed 13 times for 53 yards and brought in all five targets for 24 yards in the Bills' 30-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Cook was involved as a receiver at his highest clip since Week 1, as the Bills were already down 16-0 at halftime and therefore were in catch-up mode throughout the second half. The talented back did run hard with his limited opportunities on the ground, but he finished tied for a season low in carries and also lost a fumble in Dolphins territory early in the second quarter that helped lead to a Miami field goal. The downturn was drastic after Cook had rushed for 330 yards and two touchdowns over the previous two games, but he'll look to bounce back in Week 11 at home against a typically stingy Buccaneers run defense that showed some cracks against the Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson on Sunday.

Dillon Gabriel QB | CLE
Browns' Dillon Gabriel: Modest output in Week 10 loss
Gabriel completed 17 of 32 passes for 167 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets. He added five rushing attempts for 54 yards.
Gabriel opened the scoring with a nine-yard touchdown pass to David Njoku and connected with Jerry Jeudy for a 22-yard touchdown in the second quarter, but the rookie quarterback completed only 11 of 23 first-half passes for 125 yards. Cleveland's offense struggled in the second half even as Gabriel's accuracy improved slightly, and he came up short of 200 passing yards for the fourth time in five starts as the Browns fell to 2-7 overall. Per Brad Stainbrook of the Browns' official site, head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed after the game that Gabriel will remain the starter for the team's Week 11 rematch versus the Ravens, against whom Gabriel threw his first NFL touchdown pass in Week 2.
