  • Sean Tucker RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Outgains White in Week 10 loss

    Tucker rushed nine times for 53 yards and brought in one of two targets for minus-2 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-23 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

    Tucker finished with a team-high rushing yardage total, gaining 15 more yards than backfield mate Rachaad White on one fewer carry. Tucker notably has 21 carries for 95 yards and a touchdown over the last two games, compared to 73 yards on 23 carries for White in the same span. While the latter remains much more involved in the passing game, Tucker could continue to eat into White's workload on the ground in a Week 11 road matchup against a highly vulnerable Bills run defense, assuming Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) remains sidelined.

  • Lions' Jameson Williams: Steps up against Commanders

    Williams recorded six receptions on seven targets for 119 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

    Williams has had frustratingly low production for most of the season, though he managed to top 100 receiving yards for the second time while also finding the end zone for the second consecutive contest. His longest gain of the day came midway through the third quarter when he broke free over the middle of the field and sprinted down the sideline for 41 yards. Williams also tallied a 22-yard reception in addition to his 14-yard touchdown. Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Dan Campbell took over play-calling duties for the game, which could bode well for Williams if Campbell retains the duties moving forward.

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Makes all eight kicks in easy win

    Myers converted all three of his field-goal attempts and five of five extra-point tries in the Seahawks' 44-22 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    It marked Myers' second game this season making eight kicks, as Myers accounted for 14 points in total Sunday against Arizona. On the season, Myers has drilled 17 of 21 field-goal attempts and all 32 of his extra points. The veteran kicker will go on the road to face the Rams in Week 11.

  • Jake Bates K | DET

    Lions' Jake Bates: Busy in blowout win

    Bates went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made made three of four PATs in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

    Bates was able to convert a 22-yard field goal late in the second quarter before later adding makes from 28 and 48 yards in the second half. The performance marked the first time this season that he's made three field goals in a contest. Bates has now gone 12-for-16 on field-goal tries over nine games this season.

  • Patriots' Kyle Williams: Splash play on one catch Sunday

    Williams brought in one of two targets for a 72-yard touchdown in the Patriots' 28-23 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Williams was due for some added opportunity because of the absence of Kayshon Boutte (hamstring), and the rookie third-round pick cashed in with a 72-yard scoring grab down the right side on the last play of the first quarter during which he showed off his elite speed. The catch was Williams' first since Week 3, while the score was his first in the NFL. Williams could continue to see a bump in snaps during a Week 11 home matchup against the Jets on Thursday night, given the likelihood Boutte remains out due to the short turnaround.

  • Rashid Shaheed WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Shaky debut with new club

    Shaheed finished with one reception on as many targets for three yards while adding 20 rushing yards on two attempts in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Cardinals.

    It was a shaky debut for Shaheed after being dealt to Seattle at last week's trade deadline. It could have been a worse outing with his new club had a teammate not recovered a fumble on one of the receiver's three touches on offense. The low volume is concerning, but it is worth noting that the Seahawks attempted just 12 passes in Sunday's blowout victory. Players also need time to get fully integrated into a new offensive system, so managers should not overreact to the dud in the box score. Shaheed averaged 7.3 targets prior to the trade as New Orleans' No. 2 receiver, so expect more looks to come his way against the Rams next Sunday as he continues to get acquainted with Seattle's offense.

  • Zay Flowers WR | BAL

    Ravens' Zay Flowers: Remains consistent

    Flowers recorded four receptions on six targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 27-19 win over the Vikings.

    Flowers continued in his typical role, dominating targets and production among the Baltimore pass catchers. He logged long receptions of 27 and 22 yards, his third consecutive game with at least one catch of at least 20 yards. While Flowers is Lamar Jackson's most reliable target, he has not reached 80 receiving yards or found the end zone since Week 1.

  • Dawson Knox TE | BUF

    Bills' Dawson Knox: Three catches in Week 10 loss

    Knox secured three of four targets for 37 yards in the Bills' 30-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Knox saw a slightly larger role than usual, partly due to Dalton Kincaid exiting early because of a hamstring issue. Both Knox's reception and receiving yardage totals were season highs, and the veteran could be in for another relatively busy day if Kincaid is sidelined for a Week 11 home matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Dolphins' Malik Washington: Touchdown reception in upset win

    Washington brought in two of three targets for nine yards and a touchdown, rushed once for four yards, returned one kickoff for 24 yards and ran back one punt for 13 yards in the Dolphins' 30-13 win over the Bills on Sunday.

    Washington filled his usual jack-of-all-trades role and managed to make an impact as a receiver with a nine-yard touchdown reception to open the scoring. The versatile second-year pro has scored both of his TDs in the last three games, and he now has multiple receptions in eight straight contests but has yet to top 48 receiving yards in any outing this season. Washington will remain in his versatile role during a Week 11 matchup against the Commanders in Madrid next Sunday.

  • Brock Purdy QB | SF

    49ers' Brock Purdy: Has chance to return Week 11

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 42-26 loss to the Rams that Purdy (toe) has a real chance to return in Week 11 against the Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Mac Jones made his eighth start of the season in Sunday's loss to the Rams, which dropped the 49ers to 6-4. Purdy has been progressing in his recovery from turf toe and was a limited participant in Week 10 prior to being declared inactive against the Rams. Purdy would likely need to ramp up to full participation prior to reclaiming the starting role.
