Notes: Patrick Mahomes is sick, this has not impacted projections. Darren Waller is active. Zack Moss is active, Michael Thomas is active, Luke Musgrave is active, Curtis Samuel is active. Updated for line movement. Brock Purdy will play. Jerome Ford seems likely to play. Michael Thomas is questionable with an illness. Curtis Samuel is a game-time decision. Jerome Ford is a game-time decision. Zack Moss is a game-time decision. Will Levis is starting for the Titans but Malik Willis is expected to get some snaps in a split situation. In a twist, Brock Purdy is now upgraded to questionable and practiced in full on Friday, his status coming out of the concussion protocol remains unclear but we have returned him to projections. Jerome Ford is also now trending toward playing. Deshaun Watson, Daniel Jones, Ryan Tannehill, Robert Woods, and Zach Ertz are all OUT or expected to miss Week 8.
