Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur said Monday that RB Jeremiyah Love suffered a new right ankle injury in the Week 8 win over the Cowboys. Love suffered a high right ankle sprain in the preseason, hurt his left ankle in Week 2, and then suffered this new right ankle injury vs. Dallas. LaFleur didn't give any more details on the latest injury, but we'd be surprised if Love played against the Seahawks this weekend. It's starting to feel like a lost rookie season. Arizona also lost RB Bam Knight to a concussion yesterday, leaving him no better than 50/50 for Week 9. His absence would likely leave Tyler Allgeier in an every-down role.

Rams TE Terrance Ferguson (ankle) "has a chance" to practice this week, HC Sean McVay said Monday. He's been sidelined since Week 3. It's unclear if he'll be ready for Sunday's game vs. the Commanders, but Ferguson is nearing a return. The rookie was blanked in the opener but posted a 6-54-1 line in Week 2. He has a chance to emerge as the No. 2 target in the Rams' passing game for however long WR Davante Adams is out and is worth stashing now in fantasy leagues of 12+ teams.

Cardinals WR Kendrick Bourne broke his tibia in Sunday's win over the Cowboys, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Bourne doesn't need surgery but will be sidelined for 3 months, ending his 2026 campaign. Bourne registered a 61% route rate and 15% target share in three full games without WR Marvin Harrison. He joins Jalen Brooks on IR, leaving Arizona woefully thin at WR. Reggie Virgil, Simi Fehoko, and Devin Duvernay are on the active roster behind Michael Wilson, with Zay Jones and Harrison Wallace on the practice squad. You can ignore those guys on the waiver wire this week. Wilson and TE Trey McBride will continue dominating Cardinals targets.

Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur announced Monday that the team will stick with Gardner Minshew as the starter going forwar, according to multiple reports. He added that the team will elevate rookie Carson Beck to the backup role, which would mean demoting Jacoby Brissett all the way to the emergency third-QB spot.

Lions TE Sam LaPorta managed just 3 catches for 33 yards on a 20% target share in Sunday’s win over Minnesota. That followed an even quieter Week 7, when he caught only 1 of 2 targets for 18 yards.

The Seahawks activated RB Jadarian Price (chest) from IR, putting him on track to play vs. the Bears tonight. The rookie has been out since Week 3. Price averaged 4.3 yards per carry over his first three games but struggled with injuries and ball security. With RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) expected to make his 2026 debut tonight, it's completely unclear what Seattle's backfield will look like in terms of touch split.

The Vikings managed just 46 rushing yards from their backfield in Week 8, with Aaron Jones contributing 22 and Jordan Mason adding 20. Mason led the way with a 50% carry share, compared with 31% for Jones. Minnesota also mixed in No. 3 RB DeeJay Dallas, who handled one carry and played 34% of the snaps.

Ravens WR Zay Flowers was held without a catch in Sunday’s loss to Buffalo. Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley both departed with first half injuries, leaving Flowers to run routes for third-string rookie Joe Fagnano.

Packers WR Christian Watson broke a rib in Thursday night's win over the Panthers, passing game coordinator Jason Vrable said Monday. Watson, of course, heroically returned from the hospital to finish out that game, racking up 8 catches for 113 yards. Two of those grabs came after the injury. Vrable said Watson is sore but “doing great.” We'll keep tabs on him this week, but we're expecting Watson to play vs. the Patriots on Sunday.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is "likely" out for the season with the right thumb injury he suffered in the Week 8 loss to the Bills, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jackson is slated for surgery on that thumb, and we should get confirmation on a timeline for return then. We'll keep you updated on the situation, but Jackson is droppable from redraft rosters on this week's waiver run.

Bills WR D.J. Moore returned from a shoulder injury to post 4 catches, 82 yards, and 1 score vs. Baltimore. His 21% target share led the team. Buffalo didn't ease him into action, either, with his 89% route rate leading the team.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid recorded a game-high 86 yards and 1 TD in Sunday’s win over Baltimore. Kincaid’s 4 catches and 6 targets both tied for second on the team.

Dolphins RB Ollie Gordon managed only 69 yards on 19 attempts in Sunday’s Week 8 matchup vs. the Patriots. He failed to haul in his only target.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson posted season-highs in carries (19) and yards (82) in Sunday’s win over the Dolphins. He added 3 catches for 8 yards, seeing the boosted workload with TreVeyon Henderson inactive.

Patriots QB Drake Maye made the most of limited passing volume in Sunday’s win over Miami, completing 16 of 20 attempts for 199 yards and 2 TDs. He also found the end zone as a runner for the third time in his past four outings.

The Rams hit Sunday's win over the Chargers with TE Colby Parkinson inactive (rib injury). That allowed Tyler Higbee to take the clear lead at the position in routes, but it didn't turn into meaningful opportunity.

Rams QB Matthew Stafford threw for just 157 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT in Sunday's win over the Chargers. it was his second straight game of less than 200 yards and third in a row under 225. That span started with the Week 6 contest in which WR Davante Adams left early with a hamstring injury.

Rams RB Blake Corum rushed for a team-high 73 yards in Sunday's win over the Chargers, including a 23-yard, third-quarter TD. Corum trailed Kyren Williams 16-11 in carries but matched his 1 target, going without a catch.

Antonio Williams led the Commanders in targets for the first time this season, catching five of 7 targets for 54 yards on his way to 10.4 PPR points and a WR3 ranking in Week 8 pending Monday Night Football. It’s the rookie WRs second-highest scoring performance over his first seven games.

Rachaad White finished Week 8 as the RB14 pending Monday Night Football after turning a season-high 11 carries into 55 yards and a TD while adding five more yards on 2 receptions. He’s led the Commanders backfield in rush attempts each of the past two weeks with fellow RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt being placed on IR following a groin injury.
