Jameis Winston QB | NYG
Giants' Jameis Winston: Serviceable in spot start
Winston completed 19 of 29 passes for 201 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while adding three rushes for 10 yards and a touchdown in the Giants' 27-20 loss to the Packers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Called on over Russell Wilson for a Week 11 spot start in place of Jaxson Dart (concussion), Winston delivered a competent performance and had the Giants in contention for an upset until throwing a late end-zone interception that appeared to be caused by the intended receiver cutting his route short. Winston otherwise displayed virtually no rust despite not having played all season prior to Sunday, and he connected with six different targets overall. Dart may be ready to return for next Sunday's Week 12 road showdown against the Lions, but Winston would step in again should the rookie need another week to clear concussion protocol.

Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN
Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Just 30 yards in Steelers rematch
Chase caught three of 10 targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 34-12 loss to the Steelers.
After recording a franchise-record 16 catches for 161 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Steelers, Chase was held to his second-fewest catches and third-fewest yards of the season in Sunday's rematch. Prior to this unexpected dip in production, Chase had at least six catches and 91 receiving yards in each of the previous five games. He'll likely face a heavy dose of top Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez in Week 12, but Chase's ceiling remains as high as it gets.

Tetairoa McMillan WR | CAR
Panthers' Tetairoa McMillan: Monster performance in Week 11
McMillan caught eight of 12 targets for 130 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons.
The 2025 first-round pick from Arizona had the best game of his young career in Sunday's win, setting new career highs in yards, touchdowns and receptions. He benefitted from quarterback Bryce Young's best performance as a pro, with Young finding him for scores in both the first and fourth quarter. Through his first 10 NFL games, McMillan has looked like a budding star, catching 54 of 89 targets for 748 yards and four touchdowns. He draws a great Week 12 matchup against a struggling 49ers defense and could be in line for another huge outing.

Jordan Love QB | GB
Packers' Jordan Love: Battles through injury in win
Love completed 13 of 24 passes for 174 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding two rushes for seven yards in the Packers' 27-20 win over the Giants on Sunday. He also threw a two-point conversion pass.
Love was forced from the game at one point due to a shoulder injury, and although Zach Jacobson of 24/7 Sports reports the quarterback's shoulder was in good enough shape for him to reenter the game, it will undergo further evaluation by the team's medical staff in Green Bay. Meanwhile, Love was able to lead the Packers to victory against a feisty Giants team, connecting with Josh Whyle (two yards) and Christian Watson (17 yards) for his pair of scoring tosses. Love added a two-point conversion to Emanuel Wilson after the latter TD, and that sequence provided what proved to be the game-winning points. Love snapped a three-game TD-pass drought with the pair of scoring strikes and will next face a talented Vikings defense in a Week 12 home divisional showdown next Sunday.

Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT
Steelers' Aaron Rodgers: Will have left wrist checked out
Coach Mike Tomlin noted that Rodgers, who suffered a left wrist injury during Sunday's 34-12 win over the Bengals, will be evaluated further Monday morning, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Before exiting the contest, Rodgers completed nine of his 15 pass attempts for 116 yards and a touchdown and carried once for eight yards. Mason Rudolph, who replaced him, wound up completing 12 of his 16 pass attempts for 127 yards and a TD, and rushed once for minus-1 yard. The 6-4 Steelers are slated to face the 7-3 Bears next weekend, but at this stage it's uncertain if Rodgers will be available for the contest.

Chimere Dike WR | TEN
Titans' Chimere Dike: Dealing with chest issue
Dike cleared concussion protocol but sustained a chest contusion during Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Texans, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
Dike was evaluated for a concussion and ruled out at halftime, but it turns out he is dealing with a different issue, this one with his chest. The rookie wideout came into Week 11 with 21 catches (on 33 targets) for 194 yards and one touchdown over nine games. Veteran wideout Calvin Ridley, who was the team's second-leading receiver coming into Sunday, also sustained a season-ending broken fibula, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. Dike will have a week to recover before the Week 12 game versus Seattle next Sunday; otherwise, Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey will have to step up behind Elic Ayomanor (hamstring).

Tyrice Knight LB | SEA
Seahawks' Tyrice Knight: Under observation for concussion
Knight is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 11 game against the Rams.
Knight was evaluated after making a huge hit during a kick return in the first quarter. His role on defense was likely to lessen this week due to Ernest Jones returning from a knee injury.
-
Bryce Young QB | CAR
Panthers' Bryce Young: Career day in win
Young completed 31 of 45 pass attempts for 448 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons.
Young sustained an ankle injury after taking a sack in the first quarter, but he didn't miss an offensive snap in Sunday's win. The Alabama product delivered his best game as a pro, setting a new career high in passing yards en route to a 14-point comeback victory. He showed great chemistry with wideouts Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette (hip), completing 12 of 20 passes for 213 yards and three touchdowns to that duo. Young has now thrown for 1,962 yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions while leading the Panthers to second place in the NFC South. He could be a viable streaming option against a struggling 49ers defense in Week 12.

Josh Allen QB | BUF
Bills' Josh Allen: All-time performance in win
Allen completed 19 of 30 passes for 317 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions while adding six carries for 40 yards and three more scores in the Bills' 44-32 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
As his final line implies, Allen was absolutely dominant in the wild high-scoring victory, one that saw him post his highest passing yardage total since Week 1 while tying a career high with six touchdowns. Allen struck from 43 yards (Tyrell Shavers), 52 yards (Ty Johnson) and 25 yards (James Cook) through the air while adding scoring runs of two, five and nine yards, the latter two providing the final points of the afternoon. Allen's mustered at least 273 passing yards in three straight contests heading into a tough Week 12 Thursday night matchup against a stingy Texans defense. As for his three rushing touchdowns to go with three passing touchdowns, Allen is the only player in NFL history to do this in a regular-season game, and he's now done it twice after posting the same eye-popping 3-3 total in a game against the Rams last season.

D'Andre Swift RB | CHI
Bears' D'Andre Swift: Gets 21 carries in Week 11 win
Swift rushed 21 times for 90 yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Vikings.
For the second consecutive week since returning from a groin injury, Swift worked as the top option in Chicago's backfield but was kept out of the end zone while backup Kyle Monangai scored a rushing touchdown. Swift has rushed for at least 80 yards in four of his last five appearances heading into a Week 12 home game against the Steelers, so he remains a reliable source of yardage despite Monangai's involvement by the goal line.
