Packers hope WR Matthew Golden (shoulder, foot) plays Week 8

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has not played since Oct. 4, missing the past three games with a high ankle sprain.

Ravens coach Jesse Minter on Monday expressed optimism about Jackson’s availability for Sunday, and Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Jackson is expected to return this week.

As the story pointed out, Jackson was trending toward playing last week, too. Jackson was limited in all three practices last week and listed as questionable before not playing against the Bengals. The story said the Ravens denied a report Jackson woke up Sunday with swelling in his left ankle.

TreVeyon Henderson still hasn’t taken the job. Rhamondre Stevenson’s the trusted back in New England.

The story pointed out that Stevenson has looked good as a pass blocker, too, something that cannot be said for Henderson. Henderson continues to be uneven in that area, which can keep you off the field as an RB. The story mentioned that Henderson's feel for run-lane development is also still a major work in progress. Over the last three weeks, Henderson has 14 carries and 18 touches compared to Stevenson who has 33 carries and 41 touches.

After defeating the division-rival Rams in Week 6, the Cardinals extended their home losing streak on Sunday with a 30-16 loss to the Broncos.

It was another unremarkable performance on offense, which has put the spotlight on Arizona’s quarterback, Jacoby Brissett.

But Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur reiterated in his Monday press conference that the team is sticking with the veteran as QB1.

LaFleur said the team is moving the ball and the issues are collective, not just on Brissett. Beck is dealing with a back injury, the story said, so that could be the reason the team hasn't made a change. Brissett hasn't been a bad fantasy QB this season and leads the league in pass attempts with 282, which is due to the Cardinals trailing in games. Again, that's not a bad thing for your fantasy QB. But it seems like a matter of time before a change is made. The Cardinals have no reason to stick with Brissett as he's not the long term answer. The Cardinals have a nice matchup against a vulnerable Cowboys defense, and as the story pointed out, their bye isn't until Week 14.
