Jacoby Brissett Named Ravens' Starter for Week 10
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been named the starter for the Week 10 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Brissett was acquired on Friday from the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for a fourth-round pick and a seventh-rounder. The Ravens are in desperate need of help at the quarterback spot with Lamar Jackson (thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) both sidelined for the foreseeable future. Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano threw for 151 yards and three interceptions during his two appearances. The hope is that Brissett will give this team more consistent play at the quarterback spot. This season, Brissett has thrown for 1,719 passing yards with 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions in eight games. He'll be in the QB2 streaming conversation for the Monday Night matchup versus the Chargers.

Patrick Mahomes' MRI Reveals No Significant Elbow Injury
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (elbow) has avoided any significant injuries after his MRI and testing came back clean, per Ian Rapoport. Mahomes suffered a right elbow injury during Sunday's game against the New York Jets. He finished the game, but this could be a situation to monitor throughout the next week. Mahomes looked fine in the second half and finished with 242 passing yards and two touchdowns in the win. Justin Fields would be the next man up if Mahomes is forced to miss any time. Fantasy managers will need to monitor Mahomes during practice ahead of the Week 10 matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons.

Daniel Jones Won't be Traded at the Deadline
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones won't be moved at the upcoming trade deadline, per Tom Pelissero. The team informed Jones this weekend that they won't be trading him by Tuesday's deadline. They've fielded offers for him, but they've ultimately decided to keep the veteran quarterback. Jones isn't exactly having a great year under center, so it's not shocking to see a ton of buzz for him right now. The Colts could potentially attempt to move him again in the offseason. He's owed $38 million for the 2027 season, which is mid-tier quarterback money in today's league. He should remain the starter in Indy for now, but it wouldn't be shocking to see him benched towards the end of the season for a younger option.

Justin Herbert Could be Dealing With Fractured Finger
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) exited a 44-22 loss in the fourth quarter with a left middle finger injury and did not return. According to Alex Insdorf of the Guilty As Charged Podcast, L.A. head coach Jim Harbaugh said after the contest that Herbert wanted to reenter the game, but Harbaugh made the decision to keep him on the sideline. The exact extent of the injury isn't known yet, but Harbaugh noted that it could potentially be a fracture. However, Insdorf also reported that Herbert said in his postgame remarks, "I'll do whatever I can to make sure I'm 100%," and that Herbert does not expect it to be an issue moving forward. Herbert completed 13 out of 23 passes for 193 yards, one touchdown and one interception against the Texans. DJ Uiagalelei entered the game at quarterback for the Chargers while Herbert was out, and he will likely be in line to start if Herbert is forced to miss time. With the loss to the Texans, the Chargers fell to 0-8 in the 2026 season.

Drew Lock Uncertain for Week 10 After Suffering Oblique Injury
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock (oblique) could be in danger of missing time after sustaining an injury during Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Lock was knocked out of the game for a period of time due to an oblique issue. He did return to the contest, finishing with 175 yards and a touchdown in the win. Afterwards, head coach Mike Macdonald said that Lock's status for the Week 10 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders is up in the air. Sam Darnold (quad) is still banged up at the moment, so Jalen Milroe could be asked to make his first start of the season next weekend.

Malik Willis Slips Back to Superflex Territory
Miami Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis had topped 200 passing yards and thrown two touchdown passes in each of his first two games after the bye. He went 13-for-25 for 128 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 19-9 Week 9 loss to the Detroit Lions. Willis took three sacks, and his longest completion was a 20-yarder to Caleb Douglas. Miami's biggest gain through the air came on a 46-yard pass by punter Bradley Pinion on a fake punt. Willis added seven yards on two carries, leaving him with just three carries for nine yards over the past two weeks. He had run 16 times for 111 yards and two touchdowns in his previous two games against Cincinnati and the Jets. He's a low-end QB2 in Superflex for Week 10 at Indianapolis and a sit in most one-quarterback leagues. Dak Prescott just threw for 335 yards and two touchdowns against the Colts, but Willis' season high is 220 passing yards, and he's accounted for multiple touchdowns in only three of eight games.

Giants Say "Nothing is Off the Table" Ahead of Trade Deadline
"Nothing is off the table" for the New York Giants ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, according to comments from head coach John Harbaugh to SNY's Connor Hughes. Harbaugh was asked about a report claiming the Giants had pulled back an offer for running back Jonathan Taylor, and the first-year Giants head coach declined to refute the report. He also said nothing is imminent on the trade front, and nothing is off the table. Harbaugh didn't provide much insight into the Giants' plans, but it was nonetheless interesting that he didn't shut down the possibility of New York making a splash. Taylor presumably remains available on the trade market, and while it doesn't sound like the Ravens will be trading Derrick Henry, we wouldn't be totally shocked if Harbaugh tries to reunite with his former running back from Baltimore. Running back isn't the only need for New York, which would also benefit from an offensive line or defensive tackle upgrade.
