According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the NFL will review the "practice and participation situation" surrounding Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring). He was initially listed as a full participant at practice on Friday, implying there was a chance he would be active in Week 8 versus the Chicago Bears. However, after the signal-caller was ruled out on Saturday, the designation was retroactively modified from "full" to "limited." The Ravens denied any malicious intent, indicating that Jackson was a full participant, although after speaking with the league office, his status was changed since he didn't take reps with the starters. Rapoport added that the NFL "reviews any matter involving a change to a player's status," suggesting there may not be anything more to this story. Still, it's something to monitor moving ahead. As of now, Jackson is expected to suit up for the Week 9 matchup with the Miami Dolphins, with Tyler Huntley taking over under center against the Bears.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has emerged as a must-start quarterback in fantasy football. He continues to be matchup-proof heading into Sunday's Week 8 clash with the Cleveland Browns. Maye has been excellent in his second pro season, racking up 1,744 passing yards, 12 touchdowns, 200 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, and two interceptions en route to ranking as the overall QB5 so far. He has posted high fantasy finishes against some of the stingier defenses in the league, including the Steelers and Titans. He should continue to feast this week despite playing against the Browns. Cleveland has contained mobile quarterbacks quite well, allowing the second-fewest rushing yards and fewest rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks in 2025. They've ultimately surrendered the fifth-fewest passing yards and third-fewest fantasy points to the position. On a positive note, they've allowed the 11th-most passing touchdowns. Maye will still have to play at a high level Sunday, but he has shown time and time again that he's capable of doing so. He remains a mid-range QB1 for fantasy purposes.
