– Russell Wilson is expected to return to the field after a one-week absence due to a hamstring injury.

Wilson has thrown seven touchdowns in two games against the Jaguars in his career, but he also tossed three interceptions in his last outing against them, a 30-24 loss back in 2017.

The seven-year vet is playing a career-low 61 percent of the Cowboys’ offensive snaps this season, but still leads the team with 109 rushing attempts and 443 yards.
With Elliott sidelined, Tony Pollard will get a rare start. He had 13 carries for 105 yards back in Week 3, but has never carried the ball more than 14 times in a game.
Chicago’s defense ranks sixth in the NFL in yards per carry allowed.

– With Brandon Jones on the IR and Clayton Fejedelem currently listed as questionable, it could be up to Eric Rowe to start at safety next to Jevon Holland.
The former Patriot cornerback has played 136 snaps this season, mostly split between the slot and in the box. It could be a tough matchup for Rowe with TJ Hockenson lining up across from him.

– Right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor is expected to start after missing most of Week 7 due to a knee injury. He hasn’t allowed a sack since Week 2 and has allowed nine pressures all season.
– Could this be the week Darren Waller returns? The tight end hasn’t played since injuring his hamstring back in Week 5.
After having 10 catches for 129 yards in the first two weeks, Waller has six catches for 46 yards since and played just eight snaps in Week 5 before bowing out with his injury.

– The Saints had over 400 passing yards last week with Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry inactive and it looks like they’ll have to play without their wide receivers once again.

Last week, Tre’Quan Smith had five catches for 59 yards and Kevin White added a 64-yard catch of his own.

Quinn has struggled this season, earning just one sack and three quarterback hits. However, he did post 18.5 sacks this season and should be used strictly in passing situations as a part of the Eagles’ deep defensive line rotation.

– Offensively, the Commanders will be without Jahan Dotson for the fourth-straight game thanks to his hamstring injury. What’s even more worrisome is that he hasn;t even joined the team in a limited capacity yet.
Curtis Samuel and Terry McClaurin were Taylor Heinicke’s favorite receivers last week, tying for the team-lead in targets and catching eight and five passes, respectively.

– All Pro linebacker Shaquille Leonard is expected to make his return this week after playing just one game this season due to neck, head and back injuries.
He should replace Bobby Okereke in the starting lineup.
– Unfortunately, Leonard’s return won’t fix the Colts’ offense that currently ranks 28th in points per drive. Instead, quarterback Sam Ehlinger will be tasked to do that in his first-career start.
Ehlinger’s elevation comes after Matt Ryan suffered a shoulder injury, however Frank Reich has already Ryan’s benching has as much to do with his ineffectiveness as it does his injury.
While Ryan heals up, it will be Super Bowl 52 MVP Nick Foles holding the clipboard.

As for Juszczyk’s impact on the offense, Warren Sharp broke down those numbers here.

– The Rams passing offense gets a boost this week with the activation of Van Jefferson.
Jefferson has yet to play this season while recovering from a torn ACL. but could a new element to an offense that has struggled to push the ball down the field.
Matthew Stafford currently ranks 31st in the NFL in deep completions this season with four on 17 attempts.

– Allen Lazard is out this week after injuring his shoulder. With Randall Cobb also on the IR, that leaves Romeo Doubs and Sammy Watkins as the only healthy receivers with over 100 yards this season.
Watkins had two catches for 36 yards last week in his return from the IR and gets his chance to play against the team that drafted him for the first time.
– It’ll also be interesting to watch David Bakhtiari’s status this weekend. He’s questionable with a knee injury and was a surprise inactive last week after his knee flared up on gameday.
Rookie fourth-round pick Zach Tom got his first NFL start and didn’t allow a single pressure in 41 pass-blocking snaps.

– Even with the bye week, Spencer Brown’s ankle hasn’t healed enough to get back on the field so David Quessenberry will get the start at right tackle against the Packers.
Last year, Quessenberry allowed the most sacks in the NFL as the starting right tackle for the Tennessee Titans. It was his only season as a full-time starter.
