Brissett completed 27 of 44 passes for 320 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while adding three rushes for 19 yards in the Cardinals' 31-27 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

Brissett was called on for the first of what could be multiple starts due to Kyler Murray's foot injury, and the veteran signal-caller delivered in signature fashion. Brissett started slowly but picked up steam despite losing Marvin Harrison to a concussion, leaning heavily on Zay Jones, Trey McBride and Michael Wilson throughout the afternoon. The veteran signal-caller hit McBride and Greg Dortch from one and 12 yards out, respectively for his pair of touchdowns, and he had Arizona in position to take the lead after marching his team 78 yards in 10 plays before a fourth-down incompletion on a play where there may have been some pass interference on McBride. Murray could remain out for a Week 7 home matchup against the Packers, a development that would tee up Brissett for another start

Egbuka won't return to Sunday's contest agains the 49ers due to a hamstring injury, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Tampa Bay already was without the inactive Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (fibula) in Week 6, and now the team's rookie sensation is dealing with a health concern of his own that won't allow him to continue Sunday. The severity of Egbuka's injury isn't known, but the team is down to Sterling Shepard, Tez Johnson, Ryan Miller and Kameron Johnson as healthy options at the position.

Oladejo (calf) was ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Raiders, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.

Oladejo was evaluated by trainers on the sideline for the calf injury, which has been deemed to be too severe for him to return to Sunday's contest. Jihad Ward and Jaylen Harrell will continue to see more snaps at outside linebacker due to the absences of Oladejo and Arden Key (quadriceps).

Lawrence completed 27 of 42 passes for 258 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding three rushes for nine yards in the Jaguars' 20-12 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

Lawrence's final passing line with more than adequate, but he also took seven sacks and finished with an ugly 46.6 QBR for the afternoon. The 2021 first overall pick did continue to cultivate his connection with No. 1 receiver Brian Thomas, who he hit on eight occasions for 90 yards, including a 21-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. Lawrence hit Tim Patrick from 26 yards out early in the fourth quarter for his other TD toss, the quarterback's first multi-touchdown-pass tally since Week 2. Despite the solid numbers, the modest point total did Jacksonville in Sunday, a matter he'll look to rectify in a London matchup against the high-powered Rams in Week 7.

Darnold completed 16 of 27 passes for 295 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding four carries for two yards in the Seahawks' 20-12 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

Darnold looked as impressive as usual outside the friendly confines of Lumen Field, averaging 10.9 yards per attempt as he remained aggressive downfield. The veteran signal-caller once again focused the majority of his attention on Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who ended up on the receiving end of half of Darnold's completions and 162 of his yards, not to mention one of his two touchdowns, a perfectly thrown 61-yard strike in the second quarter. Darnold added a nifty 11-yard scoring toss to Cooper Kupp in the fourth quarter, and he'll head into a Week 7 home clash with the Texans on Monday night, Oct. 20 having thrown for multiple touchdowns in four of the last five games.

Wicks sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's game versus the Bengals.

Prior to departing in the third quarter, Wicks notched two catches (on two targets) for 15 yards. The Packers will be rolling with Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams at wide receiver while Wicks is sidelined.

Warner dislocated his right ankle in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.

Warner suffered the injury during the first quarter and was quickly ruled out after he was carted to the locker room. He'll undergo further tests and meet with doctors to determine how much time he'll miss, but the loss of Warner is a big blow to a 49ers defense that is already without Nick Bosa (knee) for the rest of the season. Tatum Bethune and Curtis Robinson will continue to see more snaps at linebacker in Warner's absence.

Egbuka is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers due to a hamstring injury, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Prior to the Buccaneers making this announcement in the third quarter, Egbuka mustered just two catches (on four targets) for 24 yards. He joins Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (fibula) as injured Tampa Bay wide receivers on the active roster, leaving Sterling Shepard, Tez Johnson, Ryan Miller and Kameron Johnson as the current available options at the position for the team.

Knight rushed 11 times for 34 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for 20 yards in the Cardinals' 31-27 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

Knight went into the game set for lead-back duties, but he outpaced backfield mate Michael Carter by only two carries when all was said and done. Knight did record a one-yard touchdown run late in the first quarter and had a nice gain on his one reception, but it's likely the two backs continue in a close timeshare during a Week 7 home matchup against a talented Packers defense.

Hendrickson (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Packers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Hendrickson was able to generate some pressure early in the game, but this injury really crushes the Bengals' ability to get to the passer. The Bengals also have a quick turnaround in Week 7 against the Steelers.
