  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Makes five field goals

    Reichard hit all five field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Eagles.

    The kicker made a 59-yarder in the first quarter before hitting from 34, 28, 35 and 29 yards, respectively. Reichard has only missed one kick this year, going 13-of-14 on field goals and 12-of-12 on extra points. He should get more opportunities in Minnesota's Week 8 Thursday night clash with the Chargers.

  • Packers' Lucas Havrisik: Historic day in victory

    Havrisik went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his PATs in Sunday's 27-23 win over Arizona.

    Havrisik was filling in for Brandon McManus (quadriceps) again in Week 7, ultimately etching his name into the history books. The kicker made a 31-yard field goal early in the second quarter before later making a franchise-record 61-yarder as time expired in the first half. Havrisik has now gone 4-for-4 on field-goal tries and made all six of his extra-point attempts through two games with Green Bay.

  • Justin Herbert QB | LAC

    Chargers' Justin Herbert: Tops 400 yards in Week 7 loss

    Herbert completed 37 of 55 passes for 420 yards and three touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts. He added 31 rushing yards on six carries.

    The 420 yards were a career high for Herbert, exceeding the 405 yards he racked up in 2023 during a Week 3 meeting with the Vikings. Most of that production came in the second half Sunday, including all three of the QB's touchdowns -- strikes to Quentin Johnston and Keenan Allen in the third quarter and Oronde Gadsden in the fourth, all in the red zone -- as the Chargers tried in vain to rally from a 23-3 halftime deficit. Herbert will take a 13:6 TD:INT through seven starts into a Week 8 meeting with the 2025 edition of a Minnesota defense that just got torched by Jalen Hurts.

  • Dallas Goedert TE | PHI

    Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Limited to three catches Sunday

    Goedert brought in all three targets for 18 yards in the Eagles' 28-22 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

    Goedert was a distant third in receiving yards and saw only half the targets of the runner-up in that category, A.J. Brown. The veteran tight end has taken a more prominent role in the offense on certain weeks so far this season -- especially Week 6 against the Giants (9-110-1) -- but Goedert still is a clear third cog behind DeVonta Smith and Brown and has 37 receiving yards or fewer in four of the last five games. Goedert gets another crack at the G-Men in a Week 8 home matchup next Sunday afternoon.

  • Dak Prescott QB | DAL

    Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Tosses three TDs in blowout win

    Prescott completed 21 of 30 pass attempts for 264 yards and three touchdowns while taking five carries for seven yards in Sunday's 44-22 rout of the Commanders.

    Prescott welcomed his favorite target CeeDee Lamb (ankle) back with open arms and a beautifully placed ball for a 74-yard touchdown on Dallas' final possession of the first quarter. The 31-year-old Prescott finished the contest registering at least three touchdown passes for the fourth consecutive week. A red-hot Prescott upped his season totals to 1,881 passing yards and 16 touchdowns on a career-best 72 percent completion rate through seven starts. With all of his weapons back at full strength, Prescott should be treated as a top-10 fantasy QB heading into next Sunday's tilt against Denver.

  • Maxx Crosby DE | LV

    Raiders' Maxx Crosby: Removal from Week 7 precautionary

    Crosby's (knee) removal from Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs is viewed as a precautionary measure, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Crosby left in the second quarter of Sunday's game, and with the Raiders facing a large deficit, the decision was made to keep the star pass rusher on the sideline. The Raiders are on a bye for Week 8, so even if Crosby's injury is considered more serious than initially expected, he'll have extra time to heal and should be ready to go for a Nov. 2 matchup with the Jaguars.

  • Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Makes history in Week 7

    Aubrey went 3-for-3 on field-goal tries and made all five of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

    Aubrey continued his terrific start to the season, making field goals from 47, 61 and 29 yards in the victory. The 61-yarder was particularly significant, as the kicker now has five career kicks of 60-plus yards, the most in NFL history. Aubrey has been nearly perfect this year, making all 15 of his field-goal attempts, including five makes from 50-plus yards, while going 23-for-24 on PATs over seven games.

  • Brian Burns LB | NYG

    Giants' Brian Burns: Seen in walking boot

    Burns was seen wearing a walking boot on his right foot in the locker room after Sunday's 33-32 loss to the Broncos, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.

    The pass rusher finished the game with four tackles, including 2.0 sacks and an additional tackle for a loss. Burns has played on most of the defensive snaps for New York this season, and he now has 9.0 sacks in seven games. The Giants are deep on the edge, with Abdul Carter and Kayvon Thibodeaux in addition to Burns, but the loss of the veteran would nonetheless impact the defense.

  • T.J. Hockenson TE | MIN

    Vikings' T.J. Hockenson: Sees TD catch erased in loss

    Hockenson brought in six of nine targets for 43 yards in the Vikings' 28-22 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

    The veteran tight end finished second on the Vikings in receptions and third in both receiving yards and targets. Hockenson's final line would have looked a lot better had a diving attempt at a touchdown catch that he made with just over three minutes remaining would have survived instant replay review. He did match his season high in catches and set a new high-water mark in targets, so he's trending up heading into an intriguing Week 8 road matchup against the Chargers on Thursday night.

  • Saints' Spencer Rattler: Sees turnover regression in loss

    Rattler completed 20 of 32 passes for 233 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions while adding two rushes for 12 yards in the Saints' 26-14 loss to the Bears on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

    Rattler came into the day having thrown just one interception and not yet losing a fumble, but the Bears defense put an end to that mostly clean slate. Chicago snagged interceptions at its own 32, 12 and 22-yard lines, consistently snuffing out scoring threats. Rattler did continue to put up solid numbers outside the turnovers and connected with favorite target Chris Olave for touchdown passes of 21 and 14 yards. Rattler will be back in his friendlier home environment for a Week 8 divisional showdown against the Buccaneers.
