Badgley went 1-for-1 on field-goal tries and 3-for-4 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers.

The kicker's miss came after Indianapolis scored on its first drive of the game. After that, he did make every kick, including a 36-yard field goal in the second quarter that put the Colts up by 20. In two games since replacing the injured Spencer Shrader (knee), who is out for the season, Badgley is 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and 7-for-8 on extra-point attempts, which should be good enough to help him keep the job for another week.

Gadsden caught seven of nine targets for 164 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

The rookie tight end led the Chargers in receiving yards on the day, emerging as a go-to option for Justin Herbert as the team tried to rally from a 23-3 halftime deficit. Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey both saw more targets and caught more passes than Gadsden, but the 2025 fifth-round pick did haul in his first NFL touchdown with a 15-yard reception in the fourth quarter. Gadsden has posted a 14-232-1 line on 17 targets over the last two games, giving him significant momentum heading into a Week 8 clash with the Vikings.

Deablo (forearm) is questionable to return to Sunday night's contest against the 49ers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Deablo suffered an apparent forearm injury in the first half, placing some doubt on his ability to return to action. In his absence, JD Bertrand has taken over at inside linebacker versus San Francisco.

Lutz made both of his extra-point attempts and his lone field-goal try during the Broncos' 33-32 win over the Giants on Sunday.

The Broncos' offense struggled for most of Sunday's game but came alive in the fourth quarter with 33 points. Quarterback Bo Nix led a four-play drive late in the fourth quarter to set up Lutz for a 39-yard field goal, which the latter hit right through the middle of the uprights to improve Denver's record to 5-2. Lutz has not missed a kick in six of the first seven games of the regular season and is 9-for-10 on field-goal attempts and 16-for-16 on extra-point tries.

Butker made his only field-goal attempt and all four of his PATs in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders.

Butker went a third straight week without attempting multiple field goals in a game, connecting on his only attempt from 38 yards in the victory. The kicker has now made 12 of 15 field-goal tries while going 18-for-21 on PATs over seven games this season.

Allen caught 11 of 14 targets for 119 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

The targets, catches and yards were all season highs for the veteran wideout, who was Justin Herbert's most reliable option in the second half as the Chargers tried to mount a comeback from a 23-3 halftime deficit. Allen snapped a three-game scoring drought with the performance, and he'll carry a 44-435-4 line on 65 targets through seven contests into a Week 8 clash with a Vikings secondary that just surrendered a combined 13-304-3 line to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Johnston caught two of six targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

Making his return from a one-game absence due to a hamstring strain, Johnston struggled with drops and didn't see a lot of volume, but he was still able to make an impact with a seven-yard TD reception from Justin Herbert in the third quarter. Johnston will take a 28-407-5 line on 46 targets through six contests into a Week 8 meeting with the Vikings, who just surrendered a combined 13-304-3 line to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Dicker hit his only field-goal attempt and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

The kicker's field goal came from 43 yards out. Dicker has yet to miss a kick in 2025, going 15-of-15 on field-goal tries and 14-of-14 on extra-point attempts. He'll try to stay perfect on Thursday Night Football this week against the Vikings.

McConkey caught nine of 15 targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

The second-year wideout set new season highs in targets and receptions, although the increased volume didn't result in increased production -- McConkey finished third on the Chargers in receiving yards behind rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden (7-164-1 on nine targets) and Keenan Allen (11-119-1 on 14 targets), while Quentin Johnston was on the other end of Justin Herbert's third TD. It's been a disappointing sophomore campaign so far for McConkey, but he's posted a 21-206-2 line on 31 targets over the last three games, giving him momentum heading into a Week 8 clash with a Vikings secondary that just surrendered a combined 13-304-3 line to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Tagovailoa completed 12 of 23 passes for 130 yards with no touchdowns and three interceptions while adding three rushes for six yards in the Dolphins' 31-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

The Dolphins offense hit its 2025 nadir to date in the lopsided defeat, and Tagovailoa's play stood out front and center. The sixth-year veteran's first interception of the day -- which resulted in a pick-six -- came on a deflection off De'Von Achane's hands, although Tagovailoa's throw was high and off target. The subsequent pair of picks transpired on back-to-back possessions in the fourth quarter, and head coach Mike McDaniel opted to keep the 2020 first-round pick on the sideline after the second of those miscues. Tagovailoa came into the afternoon fresh off another three-interception tally at home versus the Chargers in Week 6, and it may be fair to question his hold on the starting job heading into a thorny Week 8 road matchup against a talented Falcons defense.
