Joe Looney
Looney was inactive in the San Francisco 49ers' 42-10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the NFL's second London game of the season.

The sixth-year offensive lineman was part of an effort that allowed quarterback Peyton Manning to throw for 354 yards and four touchdowns, while only allowing two sacks. Vallos and the Broncos (7-1) will have the week off before returning to action against the San Diego Chargers on Sunday, Nov. 10.
Kyle Wilber
Wilber made his second consecutive start at right defensive end in the Dallas Cowboys' 31-30 loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 8.
