Taylor (ribs), whom the Giants designated for return from injured reserve this week, won't start Monday against the Packers after coach Brian Daboll named Tommy DeVito the team's No. 1 QB for Week 14 on Tuesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Taylor has missed the minimum four games on IR in order to return to action, and he told Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic on Tuesday that four broken ribs were the reason for his stay on the list. Assuming he's activated ahead of Monday's game, Taylor thus will serve as the direct backup to DeVito in Week 14 and potentially beyond.

Zappe implied Tuesday that he'll remain the Patriots' starting quarterback Thursday at Pittsburgh, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports. "Coach (Bill Belichick) has made it pretty clear, but I'll let him announce it to everybody," Zappe said.

Zappe didn't fare much better than previous starter Mac Jones this past Sunday during a 6-0 loss to the Chargers, completing 13 of 25 passes for 141 yards and no touchdowns while rushing four times for 16 yards. On a positive note, Zappe didn't turn the ball over after tossing picks in both of his prior two appearances. His available skill-position talent is in flux considering running back Rhamondre Stevenson has a high-ankle sprain and all of RB Ezekiel Elliott (thigh) and WRs DeVante Parker (knee) Demario Douglas (concussion), JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) also are on the Patriots' Week 14 injury report. As a result, once Belichick makes it official that Zappe will get the nod this week, he doesn't necessarily have the pieces available to produce on the field.

The Jets are signing Rypien off the Seahawks' practice squad Tuesday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.

In a corresponding move, New York is waiving Tim Boyle, which will leave Trevor Siemian, Zach Wilson and Rypien as the three quarterbacks on its active roster. Rypien has a prior relationship with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett due to being a member of the Broncos last season, and the QB has four career starts under his belt between Denver and the Rams. In those contests, Rypien completed 77 of 131 passes for 794 yards, three touchdowns and six interceptions, recorded 13 carries for 21 yards and fumbled five times (two lost).

The Jets will waive Boyle on Tuesday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.

Boyle served as the Jets' starting quarterback Weeks 12 and 13 and managed to complete 41 of 63 passes for 327 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions, record three carries for four yards and fumble twice (none lost). He was pulled from this past Sunday's 13-8 loss to the Falcons in favor of Trevor Siemian, and two days later he'll now find himself without an employer. New York intends to sign Brett Rypien off the Seahawks' practice squad, so the Jets will have the choice of Siemian, Zach Wilson and Rypien for their Week 14 starter this Sunday against the Texans.

Coach Doug Pederson said Tuesday that Lawrence suffered a high-ankle sprain during Monday's 34-31 overtime loss to the Bengals, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

Lawrence was bent backwards as he was taken to the ground in the fourth quarter Monday and was in clear discomfort as he attempted to get to his feet. He then needed assistance to make his way to the locker room, after which X-rays were returned negative. Tuesday's MRI revealed the severity of the injury, and Pederson added that the Jaguars "will see where he is in a couple days" before potentially making a ruling on his status for a Week 14 road matchup with the Browns. It's notable that Pederson is delaying ruling out Lawrence for Sunday's game, but C.J. Beathard will sub in for Lawrence if the latter ultimately isn't able to go.

Coach Brian Daboll announced Tuesday that DeVito will be the Giants' starting quarterback Monday against the Packers, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

In the wake of the Giants' Week 13 bye, the team designated Tyrod Taylor (ribs) for return from injured reserve Monday, raising some question marks about who may be under center for the team Week 14. But DeVito will continue to be New York's No. 1 QB, at least Sunday, even if Taylor is activated from IR ahead of the contest. In three starts prior to the bye, DeVito completed 49 of 78 passes for 523 yards, six touchdowns and one interception, rushed 13 times for 54 yards and fumbled twice (one lost).

The Chargers signed Dotson to their practice squad Tuesday.

Dotson will stick around with Chargers after being waived from the active roster Saturday. The 24-year-old carried the ball four times for six yards in four games played this season and will now wait for an opportunity to be elevated off the practice squad.

Robinson was cut from the Packers' practice squad Tuesday.

Robinson has been let go from, then brought back by Green Bay multiple times this fall. However, this time he was let go to make room to add another running back, Kenyan Drake to the practice squad. Whether Robinson will get another chance with the Packers remains to be seen.

Davis-Price was waived by the 49ers on Tuesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Davis-Price was never able to work his way up the team's depth chart and has been a healthy scratch for the majority of the season, seeing action just once this year in Week 5 against the Cowboys. The 2020 third-round selection also saw limited action in his rookie campaign, suiting up only six times. His current tenure in San Francisco will end with seven games played and 40 carries for 120 yards.

The Packers signed Drake to their practice squad Tuesday,

In a corresponding move, Green Bay cut fellow running back James Robinson from the practice squad. Drake may take a week or two to acclimate himself to a new offense, but he'll provide depth to a backfield that currently is without Aaron Jones, who has missed the past two games due to an MCL sprain. On the season, Drake has three touches for 31 yards from scrimmage in two games for the Ravens.

Elliott (thigh) was removed from the Patriots' second Week 14 injury report Tuesday.

Elliott was included on Monday's estimated injury report as limited due to a thigh injury, which now appears to have been a precautionary measure. The Patriots did get on the practice field Tuesday, but Rhamondre Stevenson predictably wasn't among those present after Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that the running back was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain. Because Stevenson almost certainly will be ruled out ahead of Thursday's game at Pittsburgh, Elliott should get a chance to lead New England's backfield Week 14. Through 12 games this season, Elliott has averaged 3.8 yards on his 112 carries, hauled in 24 of 31 targets for 154 yards and scored two rushing touchdowns.

Bigsby played two offensive snaps during Monday's 34-31 loss to the Bengals.

It's just the second time this season the rookie third-round pick didn't receive a carry, as D'Ernest Johnson has settled in as Jacksonville's No. 2 tailback the past few weeks. Travis Etienne remains locked in as the starter, leaving Bigsby in a depth role heading into the final month-plus of the campaign.

Dortch gathered in one of three targets for 19 yards, returned three kickoffs for 24 yards and had a 24-yard punt return during Sunday's 24-10 victory at Pittsburgh.

Since Kyler Murray returned from his torn ACL in Week 10, Dortch's workload has increased, starting Week 11. Over the last three games, he's earned at least a 70 percent snap share and recorded 10 catches (on 20 targets) for 122 yards and one touchdown. With the Cardinals' top two wide receivers Marquise Brown (heel) and Michael Wilson (shoulder) banged up, Dortch has a chance in the short term to continue to experience additional work in the offense.

Boutte (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report.

Boutte was listed as a DNP on Monday's practice estimate, so this is a step in the right direction for the rookie receiver. However, it's not clear if the Patriots ran a typical practice or walkthrough Tuesday, but he'll have another opportunity to ramp up his active level Wednesday. He should still be considered questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Steelers.

The Texans officially placed Dell (fibula) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Dell suffered a broken left fibula during this past Sunday's 22-17 win against the Broncos and underwent a procedure to repair it Monday. Per Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com, coach Demeco Ryans confirmed after Dell had surgery that the wide receiver will miss the remainder of the campaign, so Tuesday's transaction was merely procedural. Dell thus will end his rookie campaign with 47 catches (on 75 targets) for 709 yards and seven touchdowns in 11 games.

Jones failed to catch his lone target during Monday's 34-31 loss to Cincinnati.

The 25-year-old seemed primed for an expanded role Monday after Christian Kirk (core muscle) suffered an injury on the first drive, but rookie sixth-round pick Parker Washington instead stepped up, catching six passes for 61 yards and a touchdown. Jones worked as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout at times earlier this season but has just seven catches for 44 yards in 12 games, so he's not likely to be fantasy relevant even though Kirk is facing a multi-week absence.

Smith-Schuster (ankle) was listed as limited on Tuesday's practice report.

While Demario Douglas remained sidelined due to the concussion that he sustained Week 12, all of Smith-Schuster, DeVante Parker (knee) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) received the same limited listing Tuesday. The trio thus will have one more chance this week to put themselves in a position to be available for Thursday's contest at Pittsburgh, which could be confirmed as soon as the Patriots post their final Week 14 injury report Wednesday.

Parker (knee) was listed as limited on Tuesday's injury report.

Meanwhile, both JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) received the same listing, while Demario Douglas continued to sit out due to the concussion that he suffered Week 12. The trio not named Douglas thus seem to have a chance to play Thursday in Pittsburgh, and Wednesday's practice report will reveal who among them is cleared for action or instead has a designation for that contest.

Pederson reverted to Jacksonville's practice squad Tuesday.

Pederson saw some playing time on special teams in Monday's overtime loss to the Bengals as Brenton Strange was out with a foot injury. The 26-your-old will now wait for another opportunity to be elevated for a game.

Taylor (undisclosed) was waived from injured reserve by the Jaguars on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Taylor has been on IR, other than while serving a two-game suspension for an undisclosed reason, since July. The 24-year-old will now be free to play elsewhere if he can prove himself healthy.

Farrell caught his lone target for nine yards during Monday's 34-31 loss to the Bengals.

The 26-year-old set career highs with three catches and 55 yards last week in Houston, but he was far less involved in the passing game versus Cincinnati. Farrell remains the top backup to starting tight end Evan Engram but doesn't have much fantasy utility with just 22 receptions for 216 yards through 44 career games.

Waller (hamstring) relayed to Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record that he ran routes Tuesday for the first time since he was placed on injured reserve after Week 8.

Because he's missed the minimum four games on IR, Waller is eligible to be designated for return at any point, but the Giants have yet to make that transaction. Coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday that Waller is "making progress" in his recovery but wouldn't commit to the tight end being available for Monday's game versus the Packers, per Dan Salomone of the team's official site. If Waller remains out Week 14, Daniel Bellinger and Lawrence Cager will handle TE reps for New York.

The Rams cut Forristall from their practice squad Tuesday.

Forristall had spent the majority of the year with Los Angeles' practice squad, but the team has now decided to part ways with the 25-year-old tight end. The Alabama product spent the first two seasons of his career with the Browns, and his most recent in-game action came back in 2022.

Sims was targeted once and caught a one-yard touchdown pass in Sunday's 27-19 victory over the Chiefs.

Sims recorded his first reception since Week 7, and also the first touchdown of his professional career. He is seeing more snaps with fellow rookie tight end Luke Musgrave (abdomen) unavailable, but he is still second in line behind another rookie tight end, Tucker Kraft.

Carlson made two field goals and three extra points in Sunday's 27-19 victory over the Chiefs.

Carlson had missed a kick of some variety in four straight appearances entering Sunday's contest, but he was true on all his attempts in Week 13, including field goals from 40 and 48 yards that gave the Packers successive five- and eight-point leads late in the fourth quarter. The Packers stuck by Carslon through his rough patch, and they figure to do the same rest of the way.

McPherson converted two of his three field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Monday night's 34-31 overtime win over the Jaguars.

McPherson started off Monday night's contest by missing a 57-yard field-goal attempt, but he was a perfect 6-6 on kicks after that miscue. The third-year kicker out of Florida drilled a 54-yarder to put the Bengals up by three with 2:28 to go in the fourth-quarter, and he made a 48-yard game-winning field goal in overtime. McPherson's most recent outing should make fantasy managers optimistic about his rest-of-season value, as Jake Browning was able to lead Cincinnati's offense to 34 points in Week 13's affair, which ties the team's season-high in points scored in a single game.

McManus made one of two field-goal attempts and all four PATs during Monday's 34-31 loss to Cincinnati.

McManus missed a 48-yard field goal in the fourth quarter that would have given Jacksonville the lead, though he came through from 40 yards in the final minute to push the game to overtime. The 32-year-old made all 15 of his field goals from Week 4 to Week 11, but he's gone 4-for-6 over the past two games and is now 24-for-28 on the season.

Dicker made both of his two field-goal tries in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Patriots.

Poor weather conditions and dreadful offensive inefficiency meant Dicker was the sole catalyst for points on the board, and he delivered by making both of his 38-yard field-goal attempts in the second quarter. The 23-year-old has also not missed a field goal since Week 3. With a proven ability to be consistent week after week, and two or more field-goal attempts in four of the last six weeks, Dicker is a solid start in any league.

Koo made both of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Sunday's 13-8 win over the Jets.

Koo sank multiple field goals for the seventh time this season and continued his perfect streak. He hasn't missed a kick since Week 3,and has 17 made FGs and 14 PATs during that stretch. Koo has made 96 percent of his field-goal attempts this season, which is a career-high mark for a guy who's already considered one of the most consistent kickers in the NFL.

Lutz made his only field-goal attempt while converting both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Texans.

Lutz continued his perfect streak on field-goal attempts Sunday, making all 12 of his tries since Week 10. With that said, the veteran kicker was unable to produce much against the Texans as the Broncos' offense struggled to get much going throughout the contest. Lutz will look to have more of an impact on the scoreboard when the Broncos visit the Chargers in Week 14.

Brown recorded seven tackles (five solo) in the 49ers' 42-19 win over the Eagles in Week 13.

Brown's tackle count was his highest total of the season. It was his second week starting at strong safety with Talanoa Hufanga (knee) out for the year. He was reliable in the secondary, as the 23-year-old did not miss a snap. Brown will look to carry that momentum into Week 14 versus the Seahawks.

Kinlaw tallied four tackles (two solo) and two sacks in the 49ers' 42-19 win over the Eagles in Week 13.

Kinlaw's two sacks were his first of the season. His tackle total was also a season-high. The defensive tackle did his damage on just 21 defensive snaps (30 percent). He will continue to provide depth on the interior defensive line going forward.

Evans' (knee) 21-day practice window expired Tuesday, which means he will spend the rest of the season on injured reserve, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

With Evans' season officially over, he will now set his sights on returning to full health for the 2024 season. He has not played since injuring his knee in Week 5 versus the Rams. He ultimately recorded 15 tackles (nine solo), two passes deflected and one forced fumble in four games.

The Chargers activated Woods (illness) off the reserve/non-football illness list Tuesday.

Woods has been out due to an illness since Week 4 but is now officially eligible to make his return. The 2022 third-round pick can contribute on defense and special teams, and he compiled five tackles (three solo) in his three games played earlier this season.

The Commanders waived White (knee) from the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

White had been on Washington's PUP list since May due to a knee injury but will now head to waivers. The 25-year-old will continue to focus on getting healthy and look to catch on with another team.

Wade (illness) wasn't listed on New England's injury report Tuesday.

Wade was a full go in Tuesday's practice after being given a nonparticipant designation in Monday's practice estimate. The 25-year-old has now seemingly recovered from the illness that caused him to exit Sunday's loss to the Chargers early.
