Tagovailoa completed 25 of 40 passes for 261 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while adding one rush for one yard in the Dolphins' 28-6 loss to the Ravens on Thursday.

Tagovailoa's completion percentage and passing yardage numbers weren't objectionable from a fantasy standpoint, but his real-world impact on the Dolphins offense was middling. To be fair, Tagovailoa also was victimized by a couple of fumbles -- the second by Malik Washington early in the fourth quarter on the Ravens' 11-yard line to short-circuit a 12-play, 81-yard drive -- as well as a missed field goal by Riley Patterson. Tagovailoa now has sandwiched a pair of games with zero touchdown passes around the four scoring tosses he recorded against the Falcons in Week 8, and he's up to 11 interceptions on the campaign heading into a Week 10 home matchup against the Bills on Sunday, Nov. 9.

Tagovailoa completed 20 of 26 passes for 205 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in the Dolphins' 34-10 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Tagovailoa came into the afternoon dealing with an illness that forced him onto the injury report early Sunday morning, but he and the Dolphins conquered heavy odds to deliver a completely unexpected comfortable victory. Tagovailoa tossed a season-high four touchdown passes, hitting running backs De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon from three and 20 yards out, respectively, and sandwiching those throws around nine- and 43-yard scoring strikes to Malik Washington and Jaylen Waddle. This was a much-needed respite from both individual and team struggles for Tagovailoa and his teammates, but he'll have to turn around and face another talented defense in that of the Ravens during a Week 9 home matchup Thursday night.

The Dolphins added Tagovailoa to their injury report due to an illness, but he has no designation for Sunday's game in Atlanta and is expected to start against the Falcons.

Tagovailoa was a full participant in practice throughout the week, but he may have fallen an ill at some point Friday or Saturday. In any case, whatever ailment Tagovailoa is dealing with won't prevent him from playing Sunday, though it's possible that he'll be operating at less than 100 percent health. The bout with the illness won't do Tagovailoa any favors as he looks to bounce back from a pair of poor showings in Week 6 and 7 losses to the Chargers and Browns, respectively, during which he completed 33 of 55 throws for 5.5 yards per attempt and a 1:6 TD:INT.

Downs (hip) practiced fully Thursday.

After missing Wednesday's session, Downs' return to a full practice a day later paves the way for him to be available Sunday against the Steelers. With a 29-256-2 receiving line on 37 targets through seven games thus far, Downs -- who has scored in each his last two appearances -- continues to provide fantasy utility while working within a wideout corps that also features Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce.

Downs (hip) was on the field for practice Thursday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Downs sat out Wednesday's session, but his return to the field a day later bodes well for his Week 9 availability. The Colts will release their second practice report of the week later Thursday, when it will be known whether the wideout was a limited or full participant.

Downs (hip) didn't practice Wednesday.

In his return from a concussion in the Colts' Week 8 win over the Titans, Downs was on the field for 64 percent of the team's snaps on offense en route to catching all three of his targets for 39 yards and a touchdown. He now has two more chances to practice fully before the Colts' final injury report is posted head of Sunday's game against the Steelers. Also missing practice Wednesday was fellow wideout Anthony Gould (knee), which currently leaves Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce, Ashton Dulin and Adonai Mitchell as Indy's top healthy options at the position.

McCarthy (ankle) was a full practice participant Wednesday.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday that McCarthy (ankle) will be the starter for Sunday's game against the Lions and get a full week of practice in preparation for his return to the lineup, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said that he anticipates McCarthy (ankle) having a full week of prep before returning to a starting role Sunday in Detroit, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Pacheco (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills after not practicing this week.

Coach Andy Reid said Friday that Pacheco (knee) is unlikely to play Sunday at Buffalo, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
