By virtue of the Raiders' seventh straight loss and the Titans' win over the Browns, Las Vegas now has the best odds to earn the No. 1 pick. Quarterback Geno Smith left the game early with a right shoulder injury and did not return, forcing first-year head coach Pete Carroll to turn to backup Kenny Pickett.

A week after getting shutout in Seattle, Minnesota kept a clean sheet of their own in a one-sided victory at home against Washington - with JJ McCarthy throwing three touchdown passes. Jayden Daniels returned after injury but then left the game again after a hevay landing on the same elbow that kept him out for three games.
