Overview
- Cleveland named rookie Dillon Gabriel its starting quarterback for the London game against Minnesota, with analysts tempering expectations for Browns pass-catchers in his debut.
- Season-ending injuries to Malik Nabers and Tyreek Hill, plus Lamar Jackson’s multi-week hamstring absence, are forcing immediate lineup pivots and waiver adds.
- Arizona placed Trey Benson on injured reserve, opening a path for Michael Carter or Emari Demercado to lead the Cardinals backfield against the Titans, with CBS leaning toward Carter.
- Tampa Bay’s Bucky Irving was seen in a walking boot and could miss Week 5, positioning Rachaad White and Sean Tucker for more work, while Panthers coach Dave Canales labeled Chuba Hubbard day-to-day with Rico Dowdle a recommended fill-in if Hubbard sits.
- Updated rankings highlight rookies Omarion Hampton and Quinshon Judkins as ascending RB1 options, and CBS recommends starting Chargers WR Quentin Johnston as Los Angeles’ No. 1 receiver against Washington.
