Mayfield completed 18 of 26 passes for 145 yards with a touchdown and an interception while rushing four times for 49 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-20 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

The Buccaneers went with an extremely run-heavy approach in the first half, and although Mayfield was a lot busier in the second half thanks to game script, he still finished with his third sub-200-yard tally in the last four games. Mayfield also tossed a pick for the third consecutive contest, with Sunday's interception -- an apparent miscommunication with Mike Evans -- coming at the Panthers' 30 with 49 seconds remaining and Tampa Bay driving for a game-tying field-goal attempt, at minimum. Despite the stumble, Mayfield can still lead the Bucs to another NFC South title with a win over the Dolphins in Week 17 and a victory against Carolina at home in the regular-season finale a week later.

Mayfield completed 19 of 34 passes for 277 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while adding one rush for one yard in the Buccaneers' 29-28 loss to the Falcons on Thursday night. He also threw a two-point conversion pass.

Mayfield clawed his way to an impressive yardage total despite finding himself under constant pressure, taking five sacks and seven official hits overall. The veteran signal-caller did clearly benefit from the returns of Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan from injured reserve, as the duo accounted for 170 total receiving yards, with 132 of those coming from Evans. Mayfield's one interception was also particularly critical to the outcome, as it came with 8:28 remaining at the Falcons' 33-yard line and ultimately led to an Atlanta touchdown that narrowed what had been a 28-20 deficit. On the brighter side, Mayfield's yardage total was his best since Week 5, and he'll aim to keep the Buccaneers' playoff hopes afloat with a more efficient performance in a Week 16 road matchup against the Panthers on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Spears carried the ball 13 times for 52 yards and a touchdown and caught all five of his targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 26-9 win over Kansas City.

Tony Pollard led the way in the Titans backfield with 21 carries and a third straight 100-yard game, but Spears made an impact as well as as he handled a season high in carries and touches while reaching 100 scrimmage yards for the first time in 2025 and scoring his first TD since Week 8. With the Titans' offense finally looking at least competent, Spears and Pollard could remain in something close to a timeshare over the final two weeks of the season, including for a Week 17 tilt against the Saints.

Spears rushed the ball three times for 34 yards in Sunday's 37-24 loss to the 49ers. He added two receptions (on two targets) for two yards.

Spears was on the field for only 20 offensive snaps, his lowest mark since his season debut in Week 5. His longest gain went for 20 yards and came during garbage time in the blowout loss. Spears has been a peripheral option in the Tennessee backfield, and the Titans have shown no signs of shifting work away from Tony Pollard.

Pittman brought in four of five targets for 32 yards in the Colts' 48-27 loss to the 49ers on Monday night.

Pittman tied with Alec Pierce for second in receptions on the night for Indianapolis, but he continued an extended stretch of middling production. Pittman has now recorded Monday's yardage tally or fewer in five of his last six contests, a stretch where he's played with three different quarterbacks. Pittman's quest to snap out of his funk gets another tough challenge in Week 17, as the Jaguars drop in on the Colts on Sunday.

Pittman had three receptions on five targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Seahawks.

Philip Rivers' first start with the Colts in 2025 did not generate any fantasy stars from the receiving corps. Pittman did lead all Indianapolis wide receivers in targets and yardage, but that is not saying much in a game during which the offense was held to 120 passing yards. Pittman's value understandably dropped off following the news of QB Daniel Jones (Achilles) missing the rest of the season, and Rivers coming out of retirement may not be able to salvage it. The 27-year-old Pittman carries more value in deep and PPR formats for next Monday's tilt against the 49ers.

Burrow completed 25 of 32 passes for 309 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins. He added six rushing yards on two carries.

One week after the Bengals got shut out for the first time with Burrow under center, the 29-year-old quarterback bounced back with his best performance of 2025. Burrow hit Tee Higgins for a nine-yard score in the first quarter before really getting going after halftime, finding Chase Brown for two short TDs in the third quarter before connecting with Mike Gesicki for a 17-yard touchdown in the fourth. Burrow has two four-TD games in the last three weeks and a 10:4 TD:INT in four games since returning from a toe injury, and he'll take aim at another struggling defense in a Week 17 clash with the Cardinals.

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Burrow will start the team's remaining three regular-season games despite having been eliminated from playoff contention, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Taylor dismissed the notion that Cincinnati might consider sitting Burrow to preserve his health, in spite of the fact that the team's 24-0 loss to Baltimore in Week 15 closed the door on any chances of a playoff berth. "We want to win," Taylor said. Burrow missed nine games due to a turf toe injury before returning to action on Thanksgiving Day, when he earned a win against the Ravens, but the Bengals then lost to the Bills before he struggled mightily during the team's most recent matchup against Baltimore. He'll work to both close out the year strong and avoid any injuries during Cincinnati's next three matchups, beginning Sunday on the road against Miami.

Burrow was held to 225 passing yards in Sunday's shutout loss to the Ravens. He connected on 25 passes on 39 attempts, was picked off twice and sacked three times.

Time after time, the Bengals moved the ball in the middle of the field, only to stall out when reaching Ravens territory. The final insult was a pick-six thrown by Burrow after they had driven the ball inside the Ravens' 10-yard line. With the loss, the Bengals have been eliminated from the playoffs and have some hard questions to answer for the long run. In the short term, they may even question whether it makes sense to risk Burrow re-injuring his toe in three meaningless season-ending games against Miami, Arizona and Cleveland.

Bates made his lone field-goal attempt and all three PATs in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers.

Bates' lone field goal was good from 36 yards. The second-year kicker has struggled a bit this season, making just 79 percent of his field-goal attempts after converting 90 percent as a rookie. However, he's remained strong in the PAT department, with NFL-highs in extra-point attempts (54) and conversions (52) through 15 contests. Bates will again be kicking in a dome this upcoming Thursday against the Vikings in Minnesota.

Bates went 2-of-3 on field-goal tries and 4-of-4 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.

The kicker missed a 43-yard attempt wide left in the first quarter that would have opened the scoring. Bates has now missed more field goals, five, in 2025, than he did in the entire 2024 regular season (three), and he's done so in four fewer games and on five fewer attempts (29 to 24).

Rodriguez (groin) is listed as inactive Sunday at the Giants.

Addison caught two of three targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Giants.

Addison brought in both of his targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

Addison (Achilles) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
