  • QB Joe Burrow tore ligaments in his wrist late in the second quarter. A short TD pass to RB Joe Mixon was Burrow's final play of the season.
    • Jake Browning completed eight of 14 passes for 68 yards and a garbage-time TD to WR Ja'Marr Chase (Chase's second catch of the game, and first from Browning). The 27-year-old QB was sacked three times in the second half, making his second NFL appearance (after throwing one pass attempt in the season opener).
  • TEs Irv Smith, Tenner Hudson and Drew Sample were in a timeshare again, each playing less than 40 percent of snaps.
    • Hudson looked most promising as a pass catcher again, running the most routes (44%) and drawing the most targets (four of CIN's seven TE targets).
    • Hudson also led the team in receiving yards (49)
  • WR Trenton Irwin played 95% of snaps, less than only Chase (98%) and slightly more than Tyler Boyd (90%).
    • Chase and Irwin missed out on just one route apiece. Irwin is at 90% route share the past two weeks with Tee Higgins (hamstring) inactive.

  • TE Mark Andrews suffered a season-ending leg injury on a catch deep in Bengals territory on the opening drive.
    • Isaiah Likely finished with only two targets and no catches on 73% of snaps. Likely got 71% of snaps back in Week 1 when Andrews was inactive and caught his lone target for a four-yard gain.
      • Likely put up 4-42-0 on 19 snaps Week 9 against Seattle but otherwise has only five catches for 47 yards between his other 10 games this year.
      • No. 3 TE Charlie Kolar hasn't played much even when Andrews has been absent,  taking 18% of snaps Thursday after 22% in the season opener.
  • QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) went to the injury tent at one point in the first half and was limping around after a few different plays, but he ended up taking all the snaps and remained active as a runner throughout (even when the Ravens were up 2-3 scores in the fourth quarter).
  • RB Keaton Mitchell played a season-high 37% of snaps, not far behind Gus Edwards (42%), though Gus the Bus had a much better fantasy day thanks mostly to a pair of TDs.
    • Edwards got 14 of the 25 RB opportunities, with Mitchell taking nine and Justice Hill only two.
      • Hill mostly played in obvious passing situations; he got his lone carry with the Ravens up by 14 and deep in Cincinnati territory with under seven minutes remaining.
      • Edwards took the team's final four carries, including a short TD.
      • Mitchell lost five yards on his first two carries but did better after that, including a 21-yard scamper.
  • WR Odell Beckham had a season-high 116 yards on a season-high-tying seven targets en route to his third straight game with double-digit PPR points after failing to hit that mark in each of his first six games with the Ravens.
    • Beckham's snap shares actually dropped the past two weeks to 33% and 33%, down from the 41-57 percent range he handled each appearance between Weeks 2 and 9.
    • Beckham hurt his shoulder at the end of a 51-yard, run-and-catch late in the fourth quarter.
  • WR Rashod Bateman took on a season-high snap share for the second straight week, getting 82% on Thursday after 74% four days earlier against Cleveland.
    • Bateman has seen just six targets in the two-game stretch with more playing time, though one was a TD on Thursday his first score since Sept. 2022.
  • WR Zay Flowers had a 69-yard TD on a screen pass called back by a weak holding call against Beckham.
    • Ball don't lie. Nelson Agholor scored a 37-yard, catch-and-run TD from a deflected pass later on that same drive.
      • Agholor had the same number of routes as Beckham (14 - 48%) and got a couple more snaps.

  • The Jaguars dominated possession with all but one of their drives lasting at least six plays.
    • The Titans essentially had just seven drives, plus two kneel-downs at the end of each half.
    • Of the seven real drives, the first five yielded zero points (three 3-and-outs) and the last two both spanned five plays and 75 yards for touchdowns.
  • WR DeAndre Hopkins had a 43-yard TD at the end of the third quarter to cut the lead to 27-7. He didn't do much else but was the only Titan with more than two targets.
  • WR Chris Moore was the only Titan besides Hopkins to run more than nine routes (or 50%).
  • Rookie TE Josh Whyle took more work from Chigoziem Okonkwo, who finished with season lows for snap and route share.
  • DT Jeffery Simmons caught the second TD pass, because why not bring out the sneaky stuff when you're down by 27 in the final five minutes?

  • RB Travis Etienne played 75% of snaps before the fourth quarter.
    • Tank Bigsby got all nine of his carries in the fourth quarter (garbage time).
  • WR Calvin Ridley exploded for 121 total yards and two TDs, breaking out of his slump in Zay Jones' first game back from a prolonged absence.
    • Ridley has three games with triple-digit yardage, six with 40 or fewer yards and just one week in between 40 and 100 (83 in Week 9).
    • Overall he's now averaging 4.2 catches for 57.4 yards on 7.0 targets
      • 60% catch rate, 8.2 YPT, 13.7 YPR, 12.6 aDOT
  • Jones got 62% of snaps and 76% of routes. Don't be surprised if he misses more time this year, be it due to the knee injury or in relation to a recent DV violence.
  • WR Christian Kirk led the team with 29 routes (88%), his playing time unaffected by Jones' return to the lineup.
  • QB Trevor Lawrence had a 5-17-2 rushing line, scoring from nine and five yards out.

  • Tommy DeVito had one of the strangest QB stat lines I've ever seen, with a 137.7 passer rating but nine sacks.
    • The Giants really leaned on the rookie QB, surprisingly, with Saquon Barkley taking only seven carries before the fourth quarter (then getting seven more and his second receiving TD of the day in the fourth).
  • WR Wan'Dale Robinson tied TE Daniel Bellinger for the team lead in routes (28 - 80%).
    • The two combined for six catches and 73 yards on seven targets.
  • WR Darius Slayton was the star of the receiving corps with 4-82-1 receiving, but then he left early with an arm injury and missed the entire second half.
  • After halftime, the snap shares went: Shepard (86%), Hodgins (59%), Robinson (59%), Hyatt (41%), Campbell (18%).
    • Shepard and Hodgins played more with Slayton out, while Hyatt actually played less after the injury.

  • RB Brian Robinson played a season-high 78% of snaps with Antonio Gibson (toe) inactive for the first time all year, taking 17 of the 25 RB carries plus nine of the 10 targets.
    • Chris Rodriguez took over some of Robinson's normal role while Robinson took ALL of Gibson's typical role.
    • Rodriguez was doing well off the bench until he lost a fumble on the final play of the third quarter. He did get three of 25 snaps in the fourth quarter, but no more touches after the fumble.
  • WR Jahan Dotson made his way back to the end zone for a third time in four weeks but didn't do much else. His target share is down to 15.2% for the season, which is actually lower than TE Logan Thomas' share if we remove the game Thomas missed.
    • Dotson and Terry McLaurin both saw fewer targets than Robinson and Thomas.

  • RBs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery again managed to both get it done for fantasy managers, and again with the rookie playing more snaps, though Monty retook the carry lead after Gibbs surprisingly had a 17-12 advantage the previous week.
    • Both got 14 opportunities and finished with 95-98 total yards and a TD.
  • WR Jameson Williams saw a snap/route share increase for the second straight game, and in this one he rewarded the coaches with a fourth-quarter TD from 32 yards out.
    • Donovan Peoples-Jones took two snaps in his Lions debut, meanwhile.
    • The 69% snap share for Williams is easily a career high, after 52% the week prior. The problem is that he's still not drawing targets, apart from occasional deep throws. Still, it's something to work with, and a sign the Lions may be willing to tolerate growing pains.

  • RB Jaylen Warren dipped back to his normal snap share in the 40s after playing a career-high 52% last week.
    • Warren again outproduced Najee Harris, who got a few more snaps, carries and even routes. Warren had a 74-yard rushing TD, plus 71 yards from his other 11 touches.
  • TE Pat Freiermuth was limited to 54% of snaps and 35% of routes in his first game back from injured reserve (hamstring).
  • WR Diontae Johnson led the team in targets outright for a third time in five games since returning from IR. He also tied for the lead once, Week 10, when five different Steelers had exactly four targets.

  • RB Kareem Hunt played 15 of 16 snaps in the fourth quarter, after only 31% over the first three quarters.
    • Hunt got five of his 15 opportunities in Q4. The increased playing time partially seems to have just been a product of most of the snaps being either long-down-and-distance or hurry-up drill. There was no report of Ford being injured or benched. 
    • RB Jerome Ford played 61% of snaps before the final quarter, 51% overall.
  • WR Cedric Tillman played a vast majority of snaps for the third straight week, but his total lock of production suggests Marquise Goodwin (concussion) should get some of that work once he's healthy.
  • The Browns had five three-and-outs on 12 drives. The Steelers had four on 11 drives (not counting their two one-play drives at the end of both halves).

  • WR Alex Erickson was targeted just once on 33 routes, stepping in for Jalen Guyton (who suffered a groin injury during practice Friday).
  • WR Quentin Johnston tied for second on the team in routes and handled 89% route share, but he also committed one of the worst drops of the season, messing up what would've been a 40-plus-yard gain on the final drive.
  • TE Donald Parham handled season highs for snap share (73%) and route share (68%) en route to 5-57-0 on six targets.
    • TE Stone Smartt had a surprise big play, however, scoring a TD from 51 yards out on one of his 11 routes.

  • RB Aaron Jones suffered a knee injury and missed the second half.
    • RB AJ Dillon played all 32 snaps after halftime; the Packers didn't have much choice with No. 3 RB Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) also exiting early.
  • WR Christian Watson scored a TD, but was just fourth among the team's WRs in targets with Dontayvion Wicks having a big game out of nowhere (3-91-0 on five targets, 15 routes).
    • Wicks was still a distant No. 4 in terms of routes run, and it was a good day for Jayden Reed and Romeo Doubs as well.
  • Reed still doesn't play in two-wide sets but is always on the field in 11 personnel (50 of 50 this past Sunday), whereas Watson and Doubs sometimes sub out in 11 for Wicks (or even Malik Heath).
    • Reed had two carries for 19 yards before Sunday, then had three for 46 and a TD in one game (while also tying for the team lead in targets).
    • In five games since a Week 6 bye, Reed has caught 19 of 24 targets for 253 yards and two TDs, plus 4-67-1 rushing.
    • He's averaging 3.2 catches for 46.3 yards on 5.1 targets per game overall, with four TDs in 10 contests (plus the fifth rushing TD).
  • TE Luke Musgrave lost a few more snaps than usual but not routes (67%), and he tied for the team lead with six targets (matching Doubs and Reed).

    • Dortch is tiny, and he was demoted to the bottom of the depth chart despite his contributions last season. But he does seem to draw targets when he plays a lot.
  • WR Marquise Brown hasn't benefited from Kyler Murray's return yet.

  • RB Devin Singletary made it back-to-back weeks with triple-digit rushing yards, something Dameon Pierce (ankle) hasn't even come close to doing this season.
    • Pierce did manage one limited practice last week but I'm not counting on him getting a ton of work once he's cleared to play.
    • Despite a dud in his first start, Singletary has averaged 21.7 carries for 96.0 yards and 1.7 catches for 5.7 yards in three games without Pierce, playing at least 75% of snaps in each contest.
    • Mike Boone still only plays in obvious passing situations, more or less.
  • WRs Tank Dell, Nico Collins and Robert Woods each ran 34 routes (81%) and saw eight or more targets.
    • Dell had by far the biggest day, and he's now topped 25 PPR points three times this season.
    • Dell has three straight games with at least 10 targets, 69 total yards and a TD.
    • Collins took on his full workload after missing the previous game due to a calf injury, while Noah Brown (knee) was inactive for this one. TBD if Brown simply replaces Woods upon returning or chips away at multiple players' snap/route shares.

    • Charbonnet took 21 touches for only 69 yards, with DeeJay Dallas taking two touches for 14 yards (on 13% of snaps post-Q1).
  • WR Tyler Lockett played less than usual after not practicing at all throughout the week due to a lingering hamstring problem. He was at 69% route share, with No. 4 WR Jake Bobo getting 24% and No. 5 Dee Eskridge taking 14%.
    • Lockett still hasn't missed a game in a month since being listed with the injury, but another limited workload is possible come Thanksgiving against the Niners (especially if he misses practice again).
  • TE Noah Fant surged to 63% snap share and 57% route share, after months of splitting work pretty evenly with Will Dissly and Colby Parkinson.

  • WR Cooper Kupp injured his ankle in the second quarter and didn't play in the second half.
    • Kupp's injury doesn't sound too serious. He wanted to return and stayed on the sideline with a helmet, and Ian Rapoport suggests it's a lower-ankle sprain.
    • WR Austin Trammell replaced Kupp. Trammell is a 25-year-old who went undrafted in 2021 and mostly has played special teams for the Rams this year.
  • QB Matthew Stafford didn't have any setbacks with his wrist injury, benefitting from a Week 10 bye.

  • McCaffrey, Kittle, Aiyuk and Samuel each topped 85% snap share, and only Deebo didn't have a huge fantasy game.
  • RB Elijah Mitchell got all four of his carries on San Francisco's third drive of the game (early-to-mid-second-quarter).
    • Apart from that drive and two kneel-downs at the very end, RB Christian McCaffrey missed just one snap.

  • QB Tim Boyle replaced Zach Wilson in the second half but didn't fare any better, completing seven of 14 passes for 33 yards (with an interception and a sack).
    • Wilson completed seven of 15 for 81 yards, with one TD, one INT and five sacks (plus four carries for 15 yards).
  • RB Breece Hall posted a strong fantasy score, thanks to his receiving production. That's become a theme, as more than half his rushing yards came in two games (Weeks 1, 5).
    • Hall has fallen shy of 4.3 YPC in five straight games, averaging 12.6 carries for 31.4 yards (2.5 YPC) and 4.6 catches for 47.4 yards (one rush TD, two rec TD) over the five-game stretch.
  • TE Jeremy Ruckert improved to 42% snap and 40% route share, though at the expense of C.J. Uzomah more so than Tyler Conklin (68% snaps, 54% routes was similar to his recent numbers / season averages).

  • RB Ty Johnson took six touches for 58 yards and a TD on 20% of snaps, including 20% before the fourth quarter, while Latavius Murray dipped to four touches and 28% snap share before the fourth quarter.
    • Murray then took six carries in the final quarter, at which point the Bills had a huge lead.
    • Johnson played just one snap on third down. Murray got seven of the 13 third-down snaps.
  • RB James Cook took 20 touches for 102 yards and a TD but played only 45% of snaps and ran routes on 33% of Josh Allen's dropbacks.
    • Cook has back-to-back games slightly below 50% snap share, after topping that mark in seven of his first nine appearances this year. His season number is 55% share.
  • WR Khalil Shakir tied for third on the team in routes and targets but exploded for 3-115-1 behind an impressive 81-yard, catch-and-run touchdown.
  • TE Dalton Kincaid scored double-digit PPR points for a fifth straight game, though he barely got there this time after four weeks in a row at 15-plus.
    • TE Dawson Knox (wrist) is eligible to return this week. Once Knox returns, it'll presumably be bad news for Kincaid and/or Shakir. Both have played well in recent weeks... arguably better than WR Gabe Davis.
  • Buffalo's secondary took a beating in the win, losing two of the top three CBs to concussion protocol and third safety Taylor Rapp to a neck injury.

  • Jalen Nailor played only a handful of snaps with K.J. Osborn back from concussion protocol.
    • WR Justin Jefferson (hamstring) missed a sixth straight game.
    • No. 2 TE Josh Oliver had his first big receiving day for the Vikings, but his snap/route shares were about the same as usual.
  • RB Alexander Mattison got 65% of snaps and 20 of the 34 RB opportunities, but Ty Chandler was more efficient with his chances in taking 14 touches for 110 yards.
    • Ok, it was 13 touches for 79 yards if we don't count the 31-yard gain on a fake punt.

  • WR Courtland Sutton scored again, this time a game-winner.
  • RB Javonte Williams lost a lot of snaps compared to previous weeks with the Broncos throwing more, but Williams still got 11 of the 13 RB carries.
    • Williams got only 19% route share, however, and two of the 14 RB targets.
    • Samaje Perine had five touches for 47 yards on the game-winning drive, with all five touches coming in a span of seven plays.
    • Williams had an unsuccessful two-point try after the Sutton TD.
      • Not too worried about this from a Javonte standpoint. The reduced shares are partially a product of Denver not having a ton of snaps that weren't in hurry-up mode, and partially a product of Denver trying to pass more to attack the Vikings' defensive weaknesses.
  • WR Marvin Mims was the clear No. 3 WR in terms of snaps for a second straight week, though he saw just three targets on 25 routes.

  • The Eagles used 10 personnel (four-wide) on 11 snaps (20%). They hadn't done that even once previously, and it's a grouping that's been used on just 135 plays league-wide (0.7%) this year.
    • The other adjustments in Dallas Goedert's first missed game (wrist) included some snaps with two tailbacks (note that RB snap shares above add up to 105%) and a TE timeshare with Jack Stoll leading the way.
      • Stoll was targeted twice and handled only 44% route share.
  • A.J. Brown's chances of setting the receiving yards record took a huge hit, while DeVonta Smith had one of his better games this season.
    • All three TDs came on the ground, with Swift scoring from four yards out in the first half and QB Jalen Hurts scoring a 10-yarder and 1-yarder in the second half.
  • Julio Jones surged to 57% snap share and 74% route share after a bye week.

  • WR Justin Watson led the WRs in snap and route share, and also led the team in targets (11) and receiving yards (53).
    • Watson had a bad third-down drop and was unable to make a highly difficult (but possible) catch on a 4th-and-25 at the end of the game.
    • Marquez Valdes-Scantling stole the drop show, however, when he dropped what should've been a 52-yard TD with just under two minutes remaining.
    • Even TE Travis Kelce had a bad drop and a lost fumble. It was the second time this season (Week 1 vs. Detroit) that Patrick Mahomes, the defense and the O-line all played reasonably well but were let down by a brutal performance from the pass catchers in an eventual loss.
  • Rashee Rice had a decent stat line (4-42-0 on five targets) but dipped a bit to 59% snap and 50% route shares (down from 70% and 59%, respectively, in the final game before KC's Week 10 bye).
