Brown rushed 13 times for 61 yards and brought in both targets for eight yards in the Bengals' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

Brown continued his career-long tradition of efficient rushing performances against the Steelers, but the running back's overall opportunities were at least somewhat capped due to game script. The versatile back also struggled to make an impact in the passing game for the second straight game after opening the season with a 5-22-0 receiving line, as he's produced the same number of receptions for just 10 yards over the last two contests. Brown should continue in a workhorse role against the Jaguars at home next Sunday.

Evans suffered an apparent undisclosed injury during Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Evans dealt with a hip issue during Week 3 prep but was able to suit up Sunday, only to exit in the second quarter one play after he was sandwiched between some Arizona defenders. He then left the sideline on a cart, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. Prior to his departure, Evans hauled in three of six targets for 34 yards and one touchdown.

Werner (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Raiders, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Werner suffered a stinger in the first half, and his status for the rest of the game is now in question. In his absence, Isaiah Stalbird and Danny Stutsman are two candidates to see an increase in workload at inside linebacker.

Spears (ankle) turned three carries into five yards during the Titans' 12-7 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

The lack of offensive touches are likely due to an ankle injury that Spears aggravated during Sunday's loss. The fourth-year running back was cleared to return, but his carries were well behind backfield mate Tony Pollard (17), with Spears not seeing a target from Cam Ward. Spears' ankle issue is worth monitoring heading into Week 4 against the Ravens on Sunday, Oct. 4, as his absence would open up the door to playing time for rookie fifth-rounder Nicholas Singleton.

Winston completed 14 of 22 passes for 118 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over Tennessee. He added 14 rushing yards on two carries.

The 32-year-old quarterback was getting his first start in place of Jaxson Dart (knee), but Winston wasn't asked to do very much as the Giants leaned on their backfield and their defense. To his credit, Winston did avoid committing any turnovers, which may be all coach John Harbaugh needs from him. Winston will look for opportunities to be more productive at home in Week 4 against the Cardinals.

Allen completed 16 of 26 passes for 204 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions and added eight carries for 22 yards and two touchdowns in the Bills' 24-16 win over the Chargers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Allen salvaged his fantasy day with his pair rushing touchdowns, which both came from one yard out in the second and fourth quarter. The do-it-all signal-caller couldn't get into a consistent rhythm through the air, however, as an aggressive and desperate Chargers defense sacked him four times and forced him into three turnovers overall. Fortunately for the Bills, only one of those miscues led to points by Los Angeles, and only a field goal at that. Allen did reestablish some chemistry with the returning DJ Moore, who he connected with for a team-high six completions and 67 yards on a team-high 10 targets. Allen will aim to get back to some efficiency through the air in a Week 4 divisional home battle against the Patriots next Sunday.

Coker (quadriceps) does not think his injury is serious, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Coker was forced to exit Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Browns in the second half with a quadriceps injury, and he was unable to return before the conclusion of the contest. The wide receiver explained following game that he was frustrated to not be able to finish the game, but he isn't overly concerned about the injury. Coker will likely undergo additional imaging in the near future, and his status at the team's practice of the week Wednesday will shed more light on his chances to play Week 4 versus Detroit.

Willis completed 20 of 36 passes for 210 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Chiefs. He also rushed nine times for 56 yards and lost a fumble.

Willis led the team in rushing yards in a game starting running back De'Von Achane (knee) left in the first quarter. Achane could be facing a lengthy absence, which would further deplete a Dolphins offense that already lacks playmakers and entered Sunday's loss without wide receiver Caleb Douglas (ankle) and backup running back Jaylen Wright (foot). Willis has yet to exceed 220 passing yards or produce a multi-touchdown performance for the Dolphins, though he has rushed for at least 39 yards twice in three games ahead of a Week 4 road game at Minnesota.

Nabers caught five of six targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Titans.

The Giants' passing game struggled with Jameis Winston under center instead of Jaxson Dart (knee), and while Nabers led the team in catches and targets, he didn't make much of an impact -- his longest gain went for just 12 yards. That doesn't bode well for the rest of the third-year wideout's campaign with Dart not expected back until 2027, but Nabers and Winston will have plenty of time to develop more chemistry. Nabers will take a 12-96-0 line on 19 targets into a Week 4 home tilt against the Cardinals.

Gordon rushed 17 times for 41 yards and a touchdown while catching all three of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Chiefs.

Gordon capitalized on his added opportunities after De'Von Achane (knee) exited the game in the first quarter. The 2025 sixth-round pick capped Miami's 17-play, 91-yard opening drive with a three-yard touchdown run, one play after Gordon converted a third-and-9 with an 11-yard run. Miami's offense produced just three points the rest of the way and Gordon exited briefly due to cramps but returned. Achane is feared to have a major injury, and if Jaylen Wright (foot) is also unable to play against the Vikings in Week 3, Gordon would be in line to handle a substantial workload again in the Dolphins' struggling offense.
