Sherfield went without a target while playing nine of the Broncos' 81 snaps on offense in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

Sherfield has suited up for all seven of the Broncos' games to date, but he remains buried on the depth chart at receiver and will continue to offer most of his contributions on Denver's special-teams coverage units. He's yet to play more than half of the offensive snaps in any game this season and has recorded three catches for 21 yards on four targets.

Bryant hauled in one of his four targets for a six-yard reception in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

The four targets were a season high for the rookie third-round pick out of Illinois, who had totaled four catches for 40 yards on six targets through the Broncos' first six games. Bryant took the field for 41 of the Broncos' 81 offensive snaps Sunday and has now seen his share of playing time hover between the 45- and 60-percent range for four straight weeks, but he'll need an uptick in involvement in the passing game before he garners more serious consideration as an option for fantasy lineups.

Prentice played seven of the Broncos' 81 snaps on offense and failed to haul in his lone target in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

Prentice had logged one carry in each of Denver's previous three games, but the fullback didn't see any involvement on the ground Sunday while the Broncos were in hurry-up mode for much of the second half as the team clawed its way back from a 19-point fourth-quarter deficit. The 28-year-old has suited up for each of the Broncos' first seven games, playing double-digit snaps on offense in just two of those contests while carrying three times for 15 yards and adding a four-yard reception on two targets.

Badie played 21 of the Broncos' 81 snaps on offense and finished with two catches for 19 yards on two targets in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

A healthy inactive Week 6 in the Broncos' 13-11 win over the Jets in London, Badie returned to action Sunday while Denver opted to have him suit up over Jaleel McLaughlin as its third running back. Badie actually ended up playing one more snap than fellow backup tailback RJ Harvey, and the former had a couple key catches late in the game as Denver overcame a 19-point fourth-quarter deficit. Badie also contributed as a return man for the first time all season, bringing back four kickoffs for 96 yards.

Spann-Ford went without a target while playing 15 of the Cowboys' 67 snaps on offense in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

Though starting tight end Jake Ferguson went off for seven catches for 29 yards and two touchdowns Sunday, neither Spann-Ford nor fellow backup Luke Schoonmaker saw any involvement in the passing game. Spann-Ford -- who has recorded two catches for five yards on three targets through seven games -- will continue to see limited playing time on offense but should have a regular role on special teams.

Schoonmaker went without a target while playing 22 of the Cowboys' 67 offensive snaps in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

Though quarterback Dak Prescott spread the ball around to eight different pass catchers in Sunday's romp, Schoonmaker didn't get in on the act. The third-year tight end had drawn at least one target in each of Dallas' first six games, accruing a 5-24-0 receiving line over that stretch.

Luepke corralled his lone target for a three-yard reception in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

After hauling in a three-yard catch for the second touchdown of his career in a Week 6 loss to the Panthers, Luepke was unable to find paydirt Sunday but was one of eight Dallas pass catchers to finish with a reception. The fullback played just 11 of 67 snaps on offense and will continue to handle a limited role in the weeks to come.

Anderson recorded five tackles, including one for a loss, 1.0 sacks, a quarterback hit, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery for a touchdown in Monday's 27-19 loss to the Seahawks in Week 7.

Anderson strip-sacked Sam Darnold in Seattle's endzone and pounced on the loose ball for Houston's first touchdown. It was one of four turnovers forced by Houston's defense. The sack ended a two-game drought for Anderson, who has 4.0 sacks through six contests.

Higgins did not catch any of his three targets in Monday's 27-19 loss to the Seahawks in Week 7.

More was expected out of the rookie, who played a season-high 48 snaps as he moved up the depth chart with Christian Kirk (hamstring) inactive, but Higgins got caught up in the shocking mess that was Houston's offense, which had 15 days to prepare for the game but still managed just 254 yards of offense and only 14 first downs that weren't the product of Seattle penalties. Higgins was blanked for the first time in six games, as the Texans' shaky offensive line made life difficult for quarterback C.J. Stroud. There may be additional responsibility placed on Higgins next week against San Francisco, as top wideout Nico Collins was removed from Monday's contest and will begin preparation for Week 8 in the concussion protocol.

Berrios caught one of three targets for minus-one yard and returned three punts for 25 yards in Monday's 27-19 loss to Seattle in Week 7.

Berrios joined the active roster for the first time this season, taking the roster spot of Christian Kirk (hamstring), but it was a tough outing for Berrios against a raucous Seattle defense. He also took over punt-return duties from rookie Jaylin Noel, but that got off to a poor start. Berrios misjudged a punt which he thought would be a touchback, resulting in the Texans' first possession beginning at their own 4-yard line. Berrios could get a chance at redemption in Week 8, as top receiver Nico Collins (concussion) exited Monday's game, which could leave the team short on wideouts against San Francisco.
