New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 29 of 36 passes for 287 yards and two touchdowns along with a rushing touchdown. Brees was accurate throughout the contest, spreading the ball around to eight different receivers. The veteran even scored a rushing touchdown for the second straight game, pulling the old jump-over-the-line trick for a one-yard score. The lone mistake was a fumble, but that

New England Patriots wide receiver N’Keal Harry (head) was taken to the locker room in the first quarter of the team’s Week 7 game against the San Francisco 49ers. Harry took a hard hit from 49ers safety Tarvarius Moore on an incomplete pass and was helped off the field. He had one catch for six yards on two targets before the injury. His return should

Houston Texans wide receiver Randall Cobb led the team in both receptions and receiving yards in Sunday’s loss to the Green Bay Packers. He finished with eight catches for 95 yards. Cobb’s production in Houston has been inconsistent and he’s usually been the No. 3 guy in the pecking order, but he’s going to have some games where he steps into a larger role. This

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson handled 20 carries for 128 yards and a touchdown in a win over the Cowboys on Sunday. Gibson set new career-highs in carries and rush yards while scoring his fourth rushing touchdown of the season.

Detroit Lions running back Adrian Peterson carried the ball 11 times for 29 yards in the Lions thrilling 23-22 last-second win over the Falcons in Week 7. Peterson struggled to get anything going in the ground game, averaging only 2.6 yards per carry. The veteran out-touched rookie D’Andre Swift 11-to-9 in the backfield but it was Swift who saw chances in the red zone. Peterson

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow finished with 406 yards and three touchdowns off of 35-for-47 passing during the narrow Week 7 loss to the Browns. He also added six carries for 34 yards and an additional score. The former LSU Tiger had issues with ball security in this one but continued to make his case to take home 2020 Rookie of the Year honors by

Detroit Lions running back D’Andre Swift posted only 48 all-purpose yards but scored a touchdown in the Lions 23-22 comeback win over the Falcons in Week 7. Swift carried the ball only nine times for 27 yards but punched in a three-yard touchdown in the first half. The rookie also added 21 receiving yards on four receptions one week after a monster fantasy performance. Veteran

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott couldn’t do much in a game that was a huge struggle for the Cowboys offense. Andy Dalton struggled before being forced to leave the game leading to rookie Ben DiNucci struggling even more. Elliott ran the ball 12 times, gaining 45 scoreless yards. He only made one catch on two targets for six yards. Nothing went right for the

Houston Texans running back David Johnson had another middling day on the ground, rushing 14 times for 42 yards, but saw some solid usage in the receiving game, with four catches for 42 yards and a touchdown. Johnson remains the primary running back on this Texans team and seems to have a lock on that role moving, so while he’s not as exciting a player

Washington Football Team quarterback Kyle Allen had an efficient game in a blowout win over the Cowboys on Sunday. Allen went 15-for-25 passing with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding 11 rushing yards. While it was a good game for Allen, he’s not a quarterback to chase in fantasy. The Dallas defense has been bad this season allowing the most points-per-game in the NFL

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. caught five passes for 80 yards in the Lions 23-22 win over the Falcons in Week 7. It has been a brutal season for the veteran but enjoyed his most active performance of the season. Jones made the most of his six targets and added a nice 23-yard reception in the game. This should not have fantasy teams

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson got off to a slow start in Sunday’s loss to the Packers, but thanks to a late touchdown pass, he was able to manage a solid fantasy day. Watson was 29-for-39 throwing the football, finishing with 309 yards and two touchdowns. He added seven carries for 38 yards as well. This Houston defense is clearly an issue for the Texans,

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson caught five passes for 59 yards and a game-winning touchdown in the Lions 23-22 victory over the Falcons in Week 7. Hockenson’s fourth touchdown of the season came with seconds remaining, hauling in an 11-yard pass from quarterback Matthew Stafford. The second-year tight end has emerged as a safety valve for Stafford in the passing game. Hockenson’s ceiling is

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas only contributed one reception for 11 yards on one target in the Week 7 loss to the Saints. Thomas has only seen three targets in the past three games and that has resulted in 20 total yards. His almost non-existent role on this offense means he’s not even worth considering for fantasy.

Dallas Cowboys rookie quarterback Ben DiNucci took over in Week 7 after starter Andy Dalton was forced to leave after taking a shot to the head. DiNucci only attempted three passes, completing two for 39 yards. He fumbled twice, but both were recovered by the Cowboys. DiNucci, as expected, looked overmatched in this one, but may need to make the start next week if Dalton

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay caught six passes for 114 yards in the Lions 23-22 last-second win over the Falcons in Week 7. This is the second straight 100+yard receiving game for the star receiver and now has 219 receiving yards over his last two games. This Lions offense could be chided for being bland to watch at times but Golladay is a surefire

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel ended Week 7 with one carry for five yards and a touchdown along with six receptions for 48 yards on six targets. Samuel contributed in both the rushing and passing game this week and continues to provide modest value on this offense. He has not posted more than 28 rushing yards and 51 receiving yards this season, meaning he

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) is scheduled to have an MRI on his left knee on Monday morning, according to Browns coach Kevin Stefanski.

Beckham’s fantasy owners should make sure to check back for updates Monday morning

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson finished Week 7 with six receptions for 74 yards on eight targets.

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 25-of-36 passes for 340 yards with a game-winning touchdown pass to edge the Falcons in the final seconds 23-22 in Week 7.
