    Commanders' Eddie Goldman: Looked at for possible concussion

    Goldman is being evaluated for a possible concussion during Sunday night's contest against the Seahawks.

    Goldman took a blow to the head in the second half, and his status for the rest of the game is now uncertain. In his absence, Jer'Zhan Newton stands to see an uptick in usage as the top reserve option behind Daron Payne and Javon Kinlaw at defensive tackle.

  • Kevin Byard FS | NE

    Bears' Kevin Byard: Five tackles in road win

    Byard recorded five tackles, including one for loss, in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Byard continues to play almost every defensive snap and has reached five or more tackles in five of his last six appearances. He's a steady high-floor IDP contributor at safety.

  • Jaquan Brisker SAF | PIT

    Bears' Jaquan Brisker: Six tackles in secondary role

    Brisker totaled six tackles (two solo) in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Brisker has at least five tackles in his last three games, maintaining a stable tackle floor at safety. He remains a dependable depth IDP option with consistent snap volume.

  • Geno Smith QB | NYJ

    Raiders' Geno Smith: Responds with four TDs in OT loss

    Smith completed 29 of 39 pass attempts for 284 yards, four touchdowns and an interception while taking five carries for nine yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to the Jaguars.

    Smith rebounded nicely from a historically poor performance against the Chiefs (67 passing yards, no touchdowns) in the Raiders' last appearance. The 34-year-old welcomed Brock Bowers (knee) back with open arms Sunday, hooking up in the end zone with his talented tight end on three separate occasions. The four passing touchdowns set a new single-game high for Smith since joining the silver and black this past offseason. It's been a true boom-or-bust situation for the veteran signal-caller in Las Vegas, as he has now finished with less than 200 passing yards in half of his eight starts. Managers should be wary of trusting Smith on a short week in a tough matchup against Denver on Thursday Night Football in Week 10.

  • Keenan Allen WR | IND

    Chargers' Keenan Allen: One long catch

    Allen recorded two receptions on five targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Titans.

    Justin Herbert distributed targets evenly among his top pass catchers, as Allen tied for second on the team in targets with Oronde Gadsden and Quentin Johnston. Allen finished with the lowest yardage total of that group, with nearly all of his production coming on a 31-yard catch late in the first quarter. After a hot start to the season, Allen has now recorded 50 receiving yards or fewer in three of the last four games.

  • Bears' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Records sack in team debut

    Gardner-Johnson posted six tackles (five solo) and 1.0 sacks in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Starting at slot corner after being acquired earlier in the week, Gardner-Johnson added a sack and displayed immediate impact. He's a volatile but intriguing depth IDP with big-play upside from the nickel role.

  • Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Registers six solo tackles

    Stevenson made six solo tackles in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Stevenson returned after missing one game with a shoulder injury and resumed his full-time starting role at cornerback. He offers a steady tackle floor -- he hasn't had less than three in any game this season -- and remains a viable CB streamer in IDP formats.

  • Bears' Tremaine Edmunds: Posts nine tackles

    Edmunds tallied nine tackles (five solo) and one interception in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Edmunds has at least nine tackles in five of his last six contests and has recorded four interceptions this season. He continues to function as a high-floor IDP and should remain a locked-in weekly starter.

  • Commanders' Marshon Lattimore: Done for night

    Lattimore (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday Night Football versus Seattle.

    Lattimore was briefly considered questionable to return, but his night will now officially come to a premature end. The cornerback recorded two total tackles and a pass defensed before his departure, and in Lattimore's absence, Jonathan Jones and Antonio Hamilton will continue to operate in more substantial roles in Washington's secondary.

  • Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Scores two rushing TDs in OT win

    Lawrence completed 23 of 34 pass attempts for 220 yards and one interception while taking nine carries for 24 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 30-29 overtime win over Las Vegas.

    Lawrence overcame an illness in order to suit up and lead his team to a thrilling victory in extra time Sunday. The 2021 first-overall pick failed to throw a touchdown pass for the second time this season. Unlike his performance against Houston in Week 3, Lawrence was able to reward managers with his second multi-score game on the ground this season. The Clemson product has seen his production from the pocket take a hit in 2025, as he is currently sporting a completion percentage worse than the 60 percent mark from his rookie year. While the unexpected rushing production was well received, Lawrence simply isn't doing enough as a passer (nine touchdowns to six picks) to warrant a consistent starting spot in standard formats. The 5-3 Jaguars will face a stiff test against the Texans' stingy defense next Sunday.
