Watson completed 25 of 36 passes for 308 yards with an interception in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Titans. He added 19 yards and a touchdown on three carries.

While he didn't throw a TD pass for a second straight game, Watson produced a season high in passing yards and scored his first rushing TD since Week 2 of the 2024 season on a nine-yard scamper in the fourth quarter. Watson also led his fifth game-winning, fourth-quarter drive of the year, completing another comeback after the Browns fell behind 14-0 early. The veteran QB will take a 7:3 TD:INT through seven games into a Week 8 meeting with the Steelers.

Hubbard rushed seven times for 33 yards and brought in four of five targets for 27 yards in the Panthers' 43-13 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Hubbard did well with the scant opportunities he received, but his touches were limited in a game that was already out of reach by halftime. The veteran back's rush attempts and rushing yardage were both season lows, and the downturn came on the heels of back-to-back 120-plus-yard efforts for Hubbard on the ground. The 2021 fourth-round pick won't have to wait long to atone for Sunday's quiet game, as the Panthers face off with the Packers on Thursday in a Week 8 road matchup.

Slye made his only field-goal attempt while going 3-for-3 on extra-point tries during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Browns.

Slye made the most of his only field-goal try in Week 7, splitting the uprights on a 29-yarder in the fourth quarter. The kicker has now converted one or zero field-goal attempts in five of seven contests to open the 2026 campaign, and he'll continue to be an unpredictable fantasy option moving forward.

Gainwell rushed 14 times for 88 yards and returned one kickoff for 30 yards in the Buccaneers' 43-13 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Gainwell saw his biggest rushing workload of the season by far as the Buccaneers had the luxury of grinding things out on the ground after establishing a 33-6 halftime lead. The versatile veteran went without a target for the first time all season, but Tampa Bay wasn't forced into many third-and-long situations that would have required Gainwell's services in that capacity. Despite the breakout effort, it's worth keeping in mind Gainwell is typically ticketed for a much more modest role.

Concepcion caught eight of 10 targets for 129 yards and added 23 yards on three carries in Sunday's 27-24 win over Tennessee.

The rookie wideout put together a breakout performance, with his 10 targets, eight catches and 129 receiving yards all being season highs. If fact, the yardage total was more than Concepcion had produced in any two of his first six NFL games combined. Concepcion's chemistry with Deshaun Watson is growing, and he'll be hunting for his first career touchdown in Week 8 against the Steelers.

Loop went 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and made his only PAT during Sunday's 35-13 loss to the Bengals.

Loop made an extra-point in the first quarter and field goals from 34 and 24 yards in the second quarter before he and the rest of the Ravens went scoreless in the second half. The kicker has now gone 12-for-15 on field-goal tries while converting all 17 of his PATs over the first seven contests during the 2026 campaign.

McMillan secured four of six targets for 40 yards in the Panthers' 43-13 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

As the final score implies, it was a total washout for the Panthers in the divisional clash, making McMillan's modest numbers unsurprising. The 2025 first-round pick did tie for the team lead in receptions and set the pace in targets, but his receiving yardage total was his second lowest of the campaign. McMillan still sports an impressive 36-511-2 line on 54 targets heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the Packers on Thursday night.

Judkins carried the ball 17 times for 96 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Titans. He also caught his only target for eight yards.

Making his return from an ankle injury that sidelined him in Week 6, Judkins put together his best performance of the season, punching in red-zone TDs from five yards out in the first quarter and six yards out in the second. His 96 rushing yards and 104 scrimmage yards were also season highs. Judkins will try to keeping rolling in Week 8 against the Steelers.

Szmyt went 2-for-3 on field-goal tries while making all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-24 win over Tennessee.

Szmyt converted exactly two field goals for the fifth straight week while Sunday's performance marked his sixth in a row with multiple field-goal makes. The kicker made a 28-yarder as time expired in the first half before hitting the right upright on a 43-yard miss with 14:09 left in the fourth quarter. Szmyt got his redemption later though, nailing a game-winning 32-yard try in the final seconds of the game. The 28-year-old has now gone 14-for-16 on field-goal tries while making 11 of 12 PATs over the first seven contests during the 2026 campaign.

Hockenson caught four of five targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Colts.

The veteran tight end scored Minnesota's only TD of the afternoon, connecting with Kyler Murray on a five-yard score early in the fourth quarter. Hockenson has seen more than five targets just once in six contests this season, and he'll take a 27-237-2 line on 32 targets into a potential revenge game in Week 8 against the Lions.
