NFL QB Power Rankings: All 32 Starting Quarterbacks for Week 2 Football (2025)

NFL quarterback play was shaky in Week 1. Some of our league's best passers, such as Baker Mayfield, Joe Burrow, and C.J. Stroud, could not even crack 200 passing yards.

Josh Lowe Out of Lineup on Friday

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Josh Lowe is not in the lineup on Friday against Chicago Cubs left-hander Matthew Boyd.
