Hurts completed 15 of 20 passes for 179 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Giants. He added 22 rushing yards on four carries.

The Eagles QB didn't need to air it out much, as both Saquon Barkley (groin) and Tank Bigsby topped 100 rushing yards on the afternoon, but Hurts was surgical when he did throw it, hitting Dallas Goedert for a pair of TDs and sending one each to Barkley and Jahan Dotson. The four scores tied Hurts' career high, a mark he reached in both 2022 and 2023, and he's thrown multiple touchdowns in five of the last six contests, amassing a 15:1 TD:INT over that stretch. Hurts will get a well-earned rest on Philly's Week 9 bye before taking on the Packers at Lambeau Field in Week 10.

Clark (ribs) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Clark sustained the injury during the second half of Sunday's game, and he was carted to the locker room to undergo more tests after being initially evaluated by medical staff on the sidelines. With Clark done for the day, the Cowboys may have to turn to a corner to fill in at safety such as C.J. Goodwin, Trikweze Bridges, Kaiir Elam or Corey Ballentine. Clark got the start at safety Sunday due to the absences of Donovan Wilson (elbow), Juanyeh Thomas (migraine) and Malik Hooker (toe, IR).

McManus (right quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

McManus thus is putting an end to a two-game absence due to the right quad that he tweaked during Week 6 prep. He's slated to handle his usual placekicking duties Week 8 while his fill-in Lucas Havrisik is a healthy scratch. In four appearances this season, McManus has connected on seven of nine field-goal attempts and 11 of 12 point-after tries.

Golden (hip) is listed as active Sunday in Pittsburgh, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Golden ended Week 8 prep Friday by being added to the injury report as limited due to a hip injury, leaving him questionable for Sunday's game. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network then reported earlier Sunday that Golden was in line to suit up, which now has been confirmed. With Christian Watson back in action for the first time since Week 18 of last season after completing his recovery from a torn right ACL, Golden will have additional competition for deep routes in Green Bay's passing game.

Marks rushed 11 times for 62 yards and secured all four targets for 49 yards in the Texans' 26-15 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

Marks led the Texans in rushing yards despite logging six fewer carries than backfield mate Nick Chubb, and he also made his mark as a pass catcher with a game-long 50-yard reception. Marks' 5.6 yards per carry served as a new career high, and he's now been afforded double-digit carries in three of the last four games while generating an 11-119-1 receiving line in the same span. The ascending rookie next sets his sights on a Week 9 home matchup against a tough Broncos defense.

Watson (knee) is active for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Watson thus is back in action for the first time since he suffered a torn ACL in his right knee Week 18 of last season. However, considering he wasn't able to log a full practice during his 21-day window in which to mix into drills before the Packers activated him from the reserve/PUP list Saturday, he may operate with a cap on his snaps Sunday. In any case, Watson will be available along with fellow WRs Matthew Golden (hip), Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams for QB Jordan Love, while Dontayvion Wicks (calf) is inactive.

Parrish (oblique) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints.

Parrish appeared to sustain the injury during the fourth quarter. The Buccaneers are holding a commanding lead late in the fourth quarter, so he's is unlikely to return to Sunday's game even if he is cleared to do so. Josh Hayes and Benjamin Morrison would be in line for snaps at the slot corner position if Parrish remains sidelined.

Romo made his lone field-goal attempt and connected on his only extra-point try during the Falcons' 34-10 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Romo put the Falcons on the board with a 45-yard field goal early in the second quarter and added a PAT in the fourth frame, but he was otherwise idle as Atlanta struggled to move the ball down the field with Kirk Cousins under center for the injured Michael Penix (knee). Romo is now 10-for-13 on field-goal attempts and has made all 10 of his extra-point tries through six regular-season games.

Boutte caught three of five targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Browns.

Mack Hollins surprisingly led the Patriots in catches, receiving yards and targets, but Boutte made a big splash with a 39-yard TD strike from Drake Maye, one of three passing touchdowns by the second-year QB in the third quarter. Boutte has gotten into the end zone in three straight games, posting a 10-223-4 line on 12 targets during that surge, and he'll look to keep rolling in Week 9 against the Falcons.

Pineiro made his lone extra-point try during the 49ers' 26-15 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Pineiro was idle for most of Sunday's game, with his only kick attempt coming in the second quarter after a 17-yard touchdown pass from Mac Jones to George Kittle. Week 8 marked the first time this season that Pineiro did not attempt a field goal. He is 17-for-17 on field-goal attempts and 10-for-11 on extra-point tries through seven regular-season games.
