McMillan brought in seven of 10 targets for 99 yards in the Panthers' 40-9 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

McMillan was essentially the lone bright spot for the Panthers in the embarrassing loss, easily leading Carolina across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The rookie first-round pick showed good chemistry with Andy Dalton, and the talented wideout's catch total was a new career high while his target tally tied his high-water mark over the first eight games. McMillan should remain busy in a Week 9 road trip to Green Bay, a game in which the Panthers may have to eventually take a pass-centric approach.

Gano connected on both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during the Giants' 38-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Gano was activated from injured reserve Saturday and cleared to return from a four-game absence due to a groin injury he sustained during pregame warmups in Week 3 against the Chiefs. He connected on a 47-yard field goal late in the second quarter before nailing a 34-yard try late in the third frame. Gano has made all eight of his field-goal attempts and all six extra-point tries across four regular-season games.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Sunday that he will stick with Gabriel at quarterback following the Week 9 bye, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Gabriel had a few good moments during Cleveland's 32-13 loss to the Patriots, including a pair of touchdown strikes, his first since Week 5. Unfortunately for the Browns, the rookie threw two interceptions and was whistled for a safety in the fourth quarter when he intentionally grounded a pass while in his own end zone. If Stefanski eventually makes a change, Gabriel would likely be replaced by Shedeur Sanders, who was inactive Week 8 due to a back injury,

Stevenson carried the ball 14 times for 34 yards and caught one of two targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Browns.

The fifth-year back saw rookie TreVeyon Henderson gain 75 yards on just 10 totes, while Stevenson struggled to 2.4 yards per carry. The veteran has managed to hang onto the top spot in New England's backfield time share so far this season, but Henderson's explosiveness may be tipping the scales in his favor. That said, Stevenson had three rushing TDs over the prior three games, and he likely won't disappear from the offense completely even if Henderson takes the lead role in Week 9 against the Falcons.

Surtain is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys due to a shoulder injury, Hunter Phipps of Fox 21 Denver reports.

Surtain was able to return from a lower leg injury in the first half, but he did not come back out from the locker room after halftime while being evaluated for a shoulder injury. Ja'Quan McMillian has shifted over to outside corner and will remain there if Surtain is not cleared to return.

Patterson made both of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries during the Dolphins' 34-10 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Patterson gave the Dolphins a 10-3 lead in the second quarter with a 34-yard field goal before tacking on a 36-yarder in the fourth frame. He has made two field goals in five of his last seven games after not attempting a kick in Week 1, and he is now 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts and 19-for-19 on point-after tries through eight regular-season games.

Folk connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during the Jets' 39-38 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

Folk put the Jets on the board early in the second quarter with a 46-yard field goal before connecting on two more chips shots from 25 and 24 yards. The 15-year veteran has yet to miss a kick through eight regular-season games, having gone 17-for-17 on field-goal tries and 9-for-9 on extra-point attempts in 2025.

Maye completed 18 of 24 passes for 282 yards and three touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Browns. He added 50 rushing yards on seven carries.

The pick was his first turnover since Week 3, but otherwise it was another impressive performance from the second-year QB. Maye's 282 passing yards were his highest total since the Patriots' season opener, and he's fired multiple TD passes in six of eight games this season, leaving him with a 15:3 TD:INT. Maye will face a potentially tough test in Week 9 against a Falcons defense that had been stingy to begin the year, but that just gave up four passing TDs to Tua Tagovailoa.

Santos went 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts and made his lone extra-point try during the Bears' 30-16 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Santos was cleared to return Week 8 from a two-game absence due to a thigh injury. He started out nicely by connecting on field goals from 32 and 39 yards in the first quarter before his 58-yard attempt at the end of the second frame came up just short, and he finished his day off with a 47-yard field goal late in the fourth quarter. Santos is 9-for-11 on field-goal attempts and 12-for-12 on extra-point tries across five regular-season games.

Borregales went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries during the Patriots' 32-13 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Borregales was responsible for the Patriots' first nine points of the game after connecting on field goals from 36, 32 and 42 yards in the first half. It's the second time this season that he has made at least three field goals in a game, and he has been perfect on his kicks since Week 3. The rookie sixth-rounder is 12-for-13 on field-goal attempts and 21-for-23 on point-after tries through the first eight regular-season games of his NFL career.
