With three weeks left in the regular season, the 2027 NFL Draft QB rankings tighten after Week 10. Oklahoma State's Drew Mestemaker cements his lead with 313 yards and five TDs in a 66-28 win, while South Carolina's LaNorris Sellers battles an ankle injury but still scores a 41‑yard TD in a 17-9 victory. Ole Miss's Trinidad Chambliss drops to No. 3 after a 42-7 loss to Georgia, which exposed his struggle against interior pressure and limited athleticism. Miami's Darian Mensah shows second‑half efficiency, and Missouri's Austin Simmons remains a top prospect despite a loss to Arch Manning. The article evaluates how recent performances could shift each quarterback’s draft stock before the decision deadline.
The Steelers publish a revised Week 10 depth chart ahead of Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, noting only one roster change since the last release: wide receiver Brandon Smith moves from the practice squad to the active roster. No other positional shifts are reported, indicating continuity in the lineup after the team’s bye week.
Agent Drew Rosenhaus says he expects wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk to play this season despite the 49ers likely releasing him after the trade deadline. Aiyuk, who owes San Francisco $13 million, has passed multiple physicals, is fully healthy and ready to work out for any team. Rosenhaus hints at interest from former coaches or teammates—potentially Washington, Las Vegas or Arizona—if the 49ers cut him. He remains confident Aiyuk will find a new roster spot and contribute soon.
Dallas Cowboys fans may have been hoping for a more consequential move ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET NFL trade deadline, but they reportedly did make a running back addition.
The Chiefs will reportedly send 2027 fourth-round and fifth-round picks to the Colts in exchange for Downs and a 2027 seventh-round pick.
The Los Angeles Rams put wide receiver Jordan Whittington on injured reserve, ending his 2026 season after eight games and only two catches for 12 yards. The 26‑year‑old, a 2024 sixth‑round pick, had a four‑year, $4.16 million rookie contract through 2027. On the same day the Rams signed WR Xavier Smith to add depth to the receiving corps.
The Baltimore Ravens clinch a last‑second trade before the NFL deadline, acquiring starting center Ryan Neuzil from the Atlanta Falcons. The move makes the Ravens the only AFC North team to add depth at center before Tuesday’s cutoff. In return, Baltimore sends backup guard Andrew Vorhees and a future draft pick to Atlanta, bolstering its offensive line ahead of the season’s final stretch.
With the trade deadline just hours away, the Vikings are aggressively scouting for a quarterback, zeroing in on Kirk Cousins after a weak Monday night from Carson Wentz. Niners Nation notes that while San Francisco has no current trade moves, rumors swirl around wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, and other league chatter includes the Falcons signing Jake Moody, Broncos' Evan Engram likely staying put, and the Eagles dealing edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie for a 2027 sixth‑round pick. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Albert Breer highlight Jaguars and Jets interest in defensive linemen, but the standout storyline is Adam Schefter’s tweet confirming the Vikings see Cousins as a prime trade target.
The Indianapolis Colts floated a fourth‑round pick (plus a late‑rounder) for veteran DT Grover Stewart, but waited for a better deal until the trade deadline. When the other team retracted its offer, Stewart stayed in Indy. The Colts still extracted a fourth, fifth and sixth‑round pick by moving WRs Josh Downs and Keenan Allen, plus a seventh. Stewart, a 2017 fourth‑round pick, is in the final year of a three‑year, $39 million extension, having logged 28 tackles, 2 TFLs and half a sack in nine games this season.
Newly reacquired QB Kirk Cousins is expected to start for the Minnesota Vikings in their upcoming Week 10 game against the Green Bay Packers.

Entering Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season at 5-4, the Cleveland Browns keep a unchanged 53-man roster after the trade deadline. New additions include QB Dillon Gabriel, RB Jaleel McLaughlin, DL Sam Kamara and Sam Williams, and DBs Noah Igbinoghene and Toriano Pride Jr. Notable injured reserve spots are RB Raheim Sanders and OL Teven Jenkins, while TE Carsen Ryan and DB Michael Coats Jr. sit on the practice squad. The Browns now face a home stretch as underdogs with a bye week ahead, still tied for the final AFC playoff spot.
Jones said Dallas has kept Prescott in a position where a trade made no sense for two-thirds of his contract and two-thirds of his time with the team.
Thompson has been on injured reserve since Sept. 30, P.J. Locke has been ruled out against the 49ers, and Jones praised Malik Hooker’s play at Indianapolis.
Jones said the defense has shown parts over the last two games it was not showing early in the season, with the 7-1 49ers visiting Sunday.
Aubrey’s 50-yard miss came with the game tied 20-20 late in the fourth quarter, and his field goal rate sits at a career-low 77%.
Downs, the 11th overall pick in April, recorded a sack and sealed Dallas’ 27-23 win at Indianapolis with an interception against his brother’s team.
Williams had 7 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, and a forced fumble at Indianapolis and entered the week leading the NFL with 14 tackles for loss.
Jones also said a gruff, hard-driving coach can still work with today’s players, and said the Cowboys are acceptably healthy with Dak Prescott in good shape.
Dallas was flagged 14 times for 153 yards in the 27-23 win, including an unsportsmanlike call on inactive linebacker DeMarvion Overshown that Jones said has been addressed.
Jones said trading for a player and losing him in free agency can return a compensatory pick equal to the price, as the Eagles retool at the deadline.
