  • Derrick Henry RB | BAL

    Ravens' Derrick Henry: Shut down for second straight game

    Henry rushed 17 times for 45 yards and brought in one of two target for four yards in the Ravens' 35-13 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

    Henry averaged below 3.5 yards per carry for the second consecutive game against a divisional opponent, and Sunday's inefficiency also dropped his season per-carry average under 4.0 (3.9). The bruising back does have seven rushing touchdowns on the season, but none have come within the last three games. Henry will look to bounce back to his usual level of production in a Week 8 road showdown against an improved Bills run defense next Sunday.

  • Packers' Devonte Wyatt: Nursing ankle injury

    Wyatt (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Lions.

    Wyatt suffered an ankle injury in the first half versus Detroit, and his availability for the rest of the game is now up in the air. In his absence, Anthony Campbell will stand to see an increase in workload on Green Bay's defensive line.

  • Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Modest numbers in Week 7 win

    Jefferson caught four of seven targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Colts.

    The targets and receiving yards actually led the Vikings in a low-scoring defensive battle, but it was T.J. Hockenson on the other end of Kyler Murray's only TD pass. Jefferson is still looking for his first 100-yard performance of the season, and he's been held under 60 yards in three of his five games. The star wideout could be poised to finally break out in Week 8 against the Lions' struggling secondary.

  • Joe Burrow QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Burrow: Dominant performance in second half

    Burrow completed 22 of 30 passes for 292 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions while adding two rushes for 12 yards in the Bengals' 35-13 win over the Ravens on Sunday.

    Burrow couldn't lead the Bengals to a single point in the first half, but the 2020 first overall pick came out of intermission locked in. Burrow helped spearhead five consecutive scoring drives to start the second half, capping four of them with touchdown passes to Mike Gesicki (six yards), Tee Higgins (13 yards), Ja'Marr Chase (two yards ) and Drew Sample (16 yards). The game marked Burrow's second straight with four scoring tosses and zero interceptions, and both his passing yardage total and 73.3 percent completion rate were both his second highest of the season. Burrow will take 1,653 passing yards and a 15:3 TD:INT into a Week 8 home matchup against the Titans next Sunday.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Makes three field goals in victory

    Reichard went 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts and made his only PAT during Sunday's 16-10 win over the Colts.

    Reichard was unable to remain perfect Sunday, but he did deliver at least three field goals for the fifth straight game. The kicker converted kicks from 28 and 47 yards in the first half before later adding a 52-yard make with 1:39 left in regulation, giving Minnesota a 16-10 lead. Reichard's first miss of the season came in the fourth quarter when Grover Stewart got paw on the kicker's 59-yard try. Reichard is out to a remarkable start to the season, going 18-for-19 on field-goal tries, including seven makes from 50-plus yards, over six contests so far.

  • Zay Flowers WR | BAL

    Ravens' Zay Flowers: Stellar numbers in lopsided loss

    Flowers brought in eight of 11 targets for 137 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens' 35-13 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

    The standout receiver had a big hand in staking the Ravens to a 13-0 halftime lead, and although Baltimore couldn't muster a single point in the second half, Flowers still finished with team-high reception, receiving yardage and target totals. Flowers also had a game-long 48-yard catch, which qualified as his third touchdown of the season as well. Flowers has shown excellent chemistry with both Lamar Jackson (ankle) and Tyler Huntley, and reports indicate the fleet-footed receiver is likely to have the former under center for a Week 8 road showdown against the Bills.

  • Ian Thomas TE | LV

    Raiders' Ian Thomas: Back in action

    Thomas (shoulder) has returned to Sunday's contest against the Rams, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

    Thomas is back in action after briefly being sidelined with a shoulder injury that he suffered early in the game. He'll continue to operate as a depth option at tight end behind Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer versus Los Angeles.

  • Josh Downs WR | IND

    Colts' Josh Downs: Held to two grabs in Sunday's loss

    Downs caught two of four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Vikings.

    Daniel Jones couldn't get anything going at all through the air against the Minnesota defense, and Downs' four targets actually led Indianapolis, although he didn't accomplish much with that modest volume. The two grabs and four targets tied his season lows, and Downs has been held under 20 receiving yards in two of the last four games, and under 50 in all four. Unless Jones can shake himself out of his stupor, Downs' ceiling will remain very limited in a Week 8 tilt against the Jaguars.

  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Second 100-yard effort of season in win

    Higgins secured six of seven targets for 148 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals' 35-13 win over the Ravens on Sunday.

    The Bengals' air attack as a whole got off to a very sluggish start, leading to a scoreless first half. However, Cincinnati exploded for 35 points after intermission, and Higgins played a big role by posting team-high reception and receiving yardage totals while also tying for the team lead in targets. The veteran wideout also recorded his second touchdown catch of the campaign on a 13-yard grab with just under five minutes remaining in the third quarter that gave Cincinnati a 14-13 lead. Higgins is averaging an outstanding 17.3 yards per reception on a 33-571-2 line heading into a Week 8 home matchup against the Titans next Sunday.

  • Greg Dulcich TE | MIA

    Dolphins' Greg Dulcich: Leading receiver in Week 7 win

    Dulcich caught all five of his targets for 86 yards in Sunday's 28-25 win over the Jets.

    Dulcich led the Dolphins in catches, receiving yards and targets as Miami notched its first win of the season. The 2022 third-round pick of the Broncos is still searching for his first touchdown of the season after scoring once in 10 games for the Dolphins in 2025. Dulcich is likely to remain a key target for Malik Willis in Week 8 against the Patriots.
