Buffalo Bills quarterback Matt Barkley (elbow) was waived from Injured Reserve with an injury settlement. The veteran QB injured his right elbow during the preseason, and the Bills decided to release him with an injury settlement, as opposed to keeping him on IR for the rest of the year. Depending on the severity of his elbow injury, Barkley should be able to find a home elsewhere as a backup or third-stringer.

Washington Commanders quarterback Sam Howell completed 29-of-41 passes for 290 yards and a touchdown along with six carries for 40 yards in Sunday's overtime loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. After a disastrous Week 3, the former Tar Heel improved immensely in Week 4. He was solid throughout the game, but his best came when the lights were brightest. To tie the game at 31, Howell led a 64-yard drive that was capped off by a buzzer-beating touchdown to wide receiver Jahan Dotson. A loss isn't the result the Commanders wanted, but they have to feel good about what they saw from their second-year signal caller. Howell will aim to keep his success going in Week 5 against the woeful Chicago Bears.
