Andy Dalton QB | ATL
Panthers' Andy Dalton: Closes win in Week 7
Dalton completed four of seven pass attempts for 60 yards and rushed twice for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
The veteran quarterback entered the Panthers' Week 7 win early in the fourth quarter after Bryce Young (ankle) went down with an injury. Dalton performed well in relief, completing four of seven pass attempts for 60 yards, highlighted by a 33-yard strike to Xavier Legette that helped seal Sunday's victory. Young's practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of his potential availability for the Week 8 matchup against the Bills. If he's forced to miss time, Dalton will likely take over as the Panthers' top signal caller.

Olamide Zaccheaus WR | ATL
Bears' Olamide Zaccheaus: Small role in offense
Zaccheaus caught two passes on three targets for nine yards in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday. He also rushed once for zero yards.
Zaccheaus was held to fewer than 24 yards for the first time in four games. With the Bears winning by double digits, the team didn't need to lean on the passing attack. The receiver remains a limited-ceiling PPR depth option.

Jake Ferguson TE | DAL
Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Scoring binge continues
Ferguson corralled all seven of his targets for 29 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.
Ferguson continued his red zone prowess Sunday, extending his scoring streak to four games while recording his sixth touchdown over that span. The 26-year-old is on pace for a career year with 51 receptions, 334 yards and a career-high six touchdowns in just seven games played this season. Fantasy managers should probably continue playing with house money and start Ferguson without question against the Broncos next Sunday.

Luther Burden III WR | CHI
Bears' Luther Burden: One catch in win
Burden caught one pass for 22 yards in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Burden had 51 yards last week and 101 yards in Week 3, so he's becoming more of a factor in the Bears offense. Still, his inconsistency makes him a player to selectively use in fantasy lineups until his weekly targets increase.

Colston Loveland TE | CHI
Bears' Colston Loveland: Three catches in victory
Loveland caught three of four targets for 24 yards in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Loveland has eight receptions over five contests overall, but with fellow TE Cole Kmet having exited Sunday's contest with a back injury, the rookie first-rounder could see an uptick in snaps against the Ravens this weekend if Kmet is forced to miss time. In such a scenario, Loveland could merit Week 8 lineup consideration with six teams on bye.

Kyle Monangai RB | CHI
Bears' Kyle Monangai: Finds end zone
Monangai rushed 13 times for 81 yards and one touchdown and caught two passes for 13 yards in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Monangai recorded his first game with more than seven rushes and 28 yards. Some of his increased work came because the Bears won by double digits. It's unlikely this level of workload continues unless D'Andre Swift misses time.
