Ward completed 13 of 20 passes for 183 yards without a touchdown or interception in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Eagles. He added seven rushing yards and two TDs on four carries.

The second-year QB couldn't get much going through the air against Philly's stingy secondary, but Ward accounted for both his team's touchdowns with one-yard scores in the first and third quarters -- matching his rushing TD total from his rookie campaign. Ward doesn't appear to be taking a step forward as a passer, however, and through two weeks he has just 323 passing yards, a 61.5 percent completion rate and one touchdown, although he has avoided committing any turnovers so far in 2026. Ward will look to be a little sharper through the air in a Week 3 road tilt against the Giants.

Wicks caught five of six targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans.

While he wasn't able to get into the end zone, Wicks still had a strong showing as the Eagles' clear WR2 behind DeVonta Smith and ahead of rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon. The former Packer is looking good in his new offense, producing a 7-147-1 line on 10 targets through two contests, and Wicks will look to keep developing chemistry with Jalen Hurts in a Week 3 road trip to Chicago.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 35-13 win over the Dolphins that Evans (hip) is fine, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

Evans and Demarcus Robinson (ankle) both exited the lopsided Week 2 win due to injuries. Evans' removal in the fourth quarter appears to have been precautionary, but his practice participation level will still bear monitoring ahead of San Francisco's Week 3 home game against the Cardinals. Prior to exiting the game, Evans caught all three of his targets for 54 yards.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Robinson is believed to have suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Dolphins, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

Robinson was injured in the second quarter and had to be carted to the locker room. He was already replacing De'Zhaun Stribling as the Niners' WR3 after Stribling suffered a serious ankle injury in Week 1 against the Rams that is expected to sideline the rookie receiver for 10 weeks. San Francisco will have to delve deeper into its wideout depth chart, with Jacob Cowing, Jordan Watkins and KhaDarel Hodge the only healthy bodies behind Mike Evans (hip) and Deebo Samuel.

Bigsby carried the ball 13 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans. He also caught both his targets for five yards.

The fourth-year RB got the Eagles on the board in the second quarter with a two-yard TD plunge, and Bigsby led the backfield in totes and rushing yards after Saquon Barkley picked up a stinger on the first play from scrimmage. Barkley was able to return after halftime, but he'll be sent for further testing and isn't guaranteed to be 100 percent for a Week 3 road trip to Chicago. If he's sidelined or has his workload scaled back, Bigsby would be poised to benefit.

Smith caught 10 of 13 targets for 117 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans.

The veteran wideout saw more than twice as many targets as any other Eagle, with Smith's biggest reception coming just before halftime on a 22-yard TD toss from Jalen Hurts. Smith is looking the part of Philly's new WR1 following the offseason departure of A.J. Brown, compiling a 13-170-1 line on 19 targets through two games. He'll look to build on those numbers in a Week 3 road trip to Chicago.

Watson completed 24 of 30 passes for 238 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding seven rushes for 22 yards in the Browns' 23-19 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

The proverbial vultures seemed to be surrounding Watson already after an ugly Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, but the oft-maligned veteran signal-caller preserved his starting job for the moment with Sunday's weather-delayed upset victory. Watson ran the Browns offense with a steady hand throughout the afternoon, avoiding turnovers while navigating a pair of sacks and connecting with Denzel Boston (55 yards) and Blake Whiteheart (17 yards) for his pair of touchdown passes. Watson has completed a stellar 76.9 percent of his passes and posted a 3:1 TD:INT through two games, and he'll next take on the Panthers in a Week 3 home matchup next Sunday.

Coleman exited Sunday's game against the Cowboys with a finger injury and is questionable to return.

Coleman was already filling in at left tackle for Laremy Tunsil (triceps), who is expected to miss the entire 2026 season. Josh Conerly and Andrew Wylie are the top remaining healthy tackle options for Washington.

Johnson (neck) is questionable to return Sunday against the Seahawks.

Given that the game is well into the fourth quarter, it would be surprising to see Johnson return. His status over the coming days will be worth monitoring ahead of the Cardinals' Week 3 road tilt against the 49ers. Kei'Trel Clark and Kalen King would be candidates to start at outside cornerback if Johnson misses time.

Mayfield completed 21 of 34 passes for 182 yards with one touchdown and one interception while adding four rushes for 29 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-19 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

There had been buzz surrounding Mayfield's matchup against the team that drafted him first overall in 2018, but the veteran signal-caller couldn't deliver a revenge victory. Mayfield looked surprisingly out of sorts most of the afternoon against a Browns defense that had been dominated by the Jaguars in Week 1, and after an extensive weather delay, he went just 1-for-4 for six yards once play resumed at the two-minute warning with the Buccaneers at Cleveland's 28-yard line and needing a touchdown. Mayfield added another turnover on his late first-quarter interception as well, putting him firmly in the spotlight heading into a Week 3 home date against an aggressive Vikings defense next Sunday.
