Drake Maye Won't Return in Week 10 Against Detroit
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Detroit Lions, according to Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald. Maye exited during the first quarter after being sacked by star pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson (knee). He was initially listed as questionable before being downgraded to out shortly before halftime. The former No. 3 pick finishes Week 10 with 48 passing yards, 11 rushing yards, and the one sack. His absence will not only have short-term effects as the Patriots look to overcome a two-score deficit against the Lions, but could also have long-term implications if Maye is forced to miss extended time. Patriots fans and fantasy managers should be on the lookout for additional injury updates after Sunday's game concludes. Tommy DeVito will lead the Patriots' offense the rest of the way on Sunday. The team has a well-timed bye in Week 11 to give Maye extra time to recover, with his status currently up in the air for Week 12 on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Raiders Planned to Start Fernando Mendoza Before Trade
The Las Vegas Raiders were already planning to start quarterback Fernando Mendoza within the next few weeks before trading away veteran Kirk Cousins, according to Ian Rapoport of ESPN.com. The Raiders made the decision to ship off Cousins for a third-round pick last Tuesday, but his days as a starter were winding down even if the swap with Minnesota didn't happen. According to Rapoport, if the Raiders had lost to the Seahawks with Cousins as their starter in Week 10, then Mendoza would have made his first career start against the Browns in Week 11. Instead, Mendoza's start comes one week earlier -- this Sunday against Seattle -- with Cousins traded away. Even when Cousins was practicing with the first-team offense in Vegas, the team made a diligent effort to get the No. 1 pick ready, including having him call plays in practice away from the rest of the group and going through the footwork as if he were the quarterback. Head coach Klint Kubiak expressed confidence in the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, and he said that the Indiana product will have the full playbook available to him in his first career start. Mendoza opens his career as a starter with a very difficult matchup against the Seahawks' defense, although the Raiders have pulled within seven-point underdogs as Seattle plans to start Drew Lock in place of Sam Darnold (quadricep).

Drake Maye Limps to Locker Room, Questionable to Return with Ankle Injury
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye (ankle) exited during the first quarter of Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Detroit Lions and is officially listed as questionable to return, according to Evan Lazar of the team's official website. He suffered the injury while being sacked by star pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson (knee). The television broadcast showed Maye limping to the locker room with medical personnel for further evaluation. At the time of his departure, he had completed three of four pass attempts for 48 yards, plus one sack and 11 rushing yards. The former No. 3 pick has been remarkable lately, racking up 20 total touchdowns and six turnovers over his last six games. He ranks as the QB4 in fantasy scoring and has helped the Patriots maintain a winning record despite injuries on both sides of the ball. Maye is the heart and soul of New England's offense, so losing him for any period of time puts the Patriots and his fantasy managers at a serious disadvantage. As Maye continues to be evaluated, backup Tommy DeVito has taken over at quarterback against Detroit.

Aidan Hutchinson Questionable to Return After Non-Contact Knee Injury
Detroit Lions star pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson (knee) suffered a non-contact injury while celebrating a sack during the first quarter of Sunday's Week 10 contest against the New England Patriots in Germany. He is officially listed as questionable to return. According to Tim Twentyman of the team's official website, Hutchinson was evaluated in the medical tent and eventually limped to the locker room. Seeing a non-contact injury of any kind is disappointing, but it's particularly unfortunate to see an impact player get injured during their celebration after a big play. Lions fans will hold their breath as the Lions continue to evaluate Hutchinson on Sunday morning. He is off to a terrific start this season with 24 tackles, one forced fumble, and six sacks, including his sack of Drake Maye in Week 10. Derrick Moore and Tyler Lacy should be in the mix to earn more defensive snaps with Hutchinson sidelined for the time being.

Devon Levi Records First Career Shutout Against Maple Leafs
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Devon Levi was a rock against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, producing his first career shutout with 19 saves in a 1-0 win. This marks Levi's fifth consecutive win and his ninth victory in 10 starts this season. No other goalie has managed more than seven wins in their first 10 career appearances with the Oilers. For years, goaltending has caused nightmares for the Oilers' faithful, but Levi's performance suggests there's no need to worry anymore. He holds a 2.48 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage.

Simon Holmstrom Nets First Career Hat Trick Saturday Night
New York Islanders winger Simon Holmstrom had a night to remember against the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday, scoring his first NHL hat trick in a 6-2 victory. Holmstrom struck twice in the second period and wrapped up the scoring in the third. Saturday's prolific outing pushed Holmstrom's point streak to four games. Sitting on nine goals, he leads the Islanders alongside Bo Horvat. Additionally, Holmstrom has contributed six assists in 19 games. The 25-year-old will aim for his first career five-game point streak when the Islanders return to the ice on Tuesday against Columbus.

Mark Scheifele Becomes Jets' All-Time Leading Scorer
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele became a record-breaker in Saturday's 5-4 shootout over Chicago, moving past Dale Hawerchuk to become the franchise's all-time leading scorer. He did it in style, producing a goal and four assists as the Jets came back from four down to win. Playing in his 982nd career game, Scheifele reached 933 points (379 goals, 554 assists). His goal on Saturday, which sparked Winnipeg's comeback, tied him with Hawerchuk on Winnipeg's all-time goals list. Scheifele can make that record his own on Tuesday against Ottawa. He will enter the game in excellent form, boasting a six-game point streak, which includes five multi-point performances. In total, Scheifele has posted 26 points (seven goals, 19 assists) in 21 appearances this season.

Gardner Minshew II to Undergo Season-Ending Elbow Surgery
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Gardner Minshew II (elbow) suffered a torn UCL in Week 9 and will undergo season-ending surgery, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. The 30-year-old played through the UCL tear last week, but will ultimately be shut down for the rest of the year. He played in parts of just two games this season after taking over for Jacoby Brissett in Week 8. Through his two games (one start), Minshew completed 38 of 53 pass attempts for 354 passing yards, three touchdowns, and zero turnovers. With Minshew out for the year and Brissett traded, the Cardinals will now turn to rookie third-string quarterback Carson Beck. Beck will make his NFL debut Sunday in Week 10, and he'll do so with a very limited supporting cast; running back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is sidelined, while wide receivers Michael Wilson (neck) and Kendrick Bourne (ankle) are done for the season. Minshew will join Wilson and Bourne on injured reserve, marking an end to his Cardinals tenure as he prepares to hit free agency in March 2027.

Tyler Bertuzzi Hurt Versus Jets After Scoring
Chicago Blackhawks winger Tyler Bertuzzi (undisclosed) wasn't available to finish the game on Saturday against the Winnipeg Jets, The Athletic's Scott Powers reports. Bertuzzi opened the scoring as Chicago raced to a four-goal lead, but he didn't play in the final 6:14 of the third period and overtime. Bertuzzi ended a 12-game goal drought on Saturday while registering his first point of the month. The Blackhawks have been disappointing yet again in 2026-27, and Bertuzzi's numbers reflect that. He has just seven points (three goals, four assists) in 20 games. Jordan Greenway is likely to re-enter the lineup on Tuesday against Toronto if Bertuzzi isn't cleared to play.

Philip Broberg Makes Precautionary Exit Versus Panthers
St. Louis Blues defenseman Philip Broberg (lower body) left Saturday's 4-1 loss to Florida midway through the third period. He's dealing with a lower-body injury, though Blues head coach Jim Montgomery told reporters after the game that Broberg left for precautionary reasons. The Blues were trailing by four goals in the third period and had slim hopes of turning things around, so sitting Broberg was a reasonable move. Broberg is a key cog for the Blues, leading the team in ice time with 24:33 per game. He ranks fourth in points, having tallied four goals and nine assists in 20 games.

Vikings Have Discussed Keeping Kirk Cousins Beyond This Season
The Minnesota Vikings and quarterback Kirk Cousins discussed the possibility of him remaining with the team in 2027 prior to Tuesday's trade being finalized, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The Vikings gave the Raiders a third-round pick in exchange for the opportunity to bring Cousins back to Minnesota as their starter. He's a free agent after this year, but unlike the last time he hit the open market, it sounds like the Vikings will try to bring him back. "Team brass placed a call to agent Mike McCartney, who has represented Cousins for his entire career," Rapoport wrote. "The message delivered in the short conversation was this: The Vikings would like for Cousins' return to Minnesota to be more than a one-year rental." Cousins should offer an immediate boost to the Vikings, who watched Kyler Murray (hamstring) suffer a multi-week injury and limped to the finish line of Monday Night Football in Week 9 with Carson Wentz as their starter. Cousins represents a healthy and productive alternative after racking up 2,340 passing yards, 22 total touchdowns, and eight turnovers across nine games with the Raiders this year. From a fantasy perspective, Cousins should maintain his fringe top-12 quarterback status while throwing to Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison (thumb).

Daniel Gafford Exits Saturday with Stinger
Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford was ruled out for the remainder of Saturday's 127-117 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers after suffering a stinger in the second half. The 28-year-old finished with 10 points, three rebounds, and one assist in 17 minutes before heading to the locker room. Gafford is averaging 9.1 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 70.5 percent from the field this season. His status is worth monitoring with Dallas facing Boston on Sunday. If he can't go, Morez Johnson Jr. and Santi Aldama could both take on more frontcourt minutes while Dereck Lively II (foot) remains sidelined.

Tyjae Spears Expected to Play vs. Jaguars in Week 10
Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (knee) is expected to be active for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. He is officially listed as questionable, but he has been widely expected to play ever since the Titans released fellow running back Michael Carter on Saturday. If confirmed as active on Sunday, Spears will be making his grand return following a two-game absence. The 25-year-old has operated out of an undisputed backup role this season, mixing in frequently on passing downs. Through six games, he has a modest total of 66 rushing yards, 15 catches, 75 yards, zero touchdowns, and a lost fumble. Although he is a pass-catching specialist, Spears remains off the fantasy radar in most leagues as long as veteran starter Tony Pollard is healthy and productive.
