  • Jalen Ramsey CB | PIT

    Steelers' Jalen Ramsey: Cleared to play Sunday

    The Steelers announced Saturday that Ramsey (illness) has been cleared to suit up for Sunday's road matchup against Cleveland.

    Ramsey was initially listed as questionable due to an illness, but the veteran is ready to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup without issue. He's handled 100 percent of defensive snaps in each of Pittsburgh's last five games.

  • Sauce Gardner CB | IND

    Colts' Sauce Gardner: Cleared for Week 17

    The Colts announced Saturday that Gardner (calf) has had his injury designation removed for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Gardner will retake the field versus Jacksonville on Sunday after having missed Indianapolis' prior three games due to a calf issue. His return will provide a notable boost for the Colts' secondary as the team looks to contain opposing QB Trevor Lawrence, who has thrown 12 touchdowns without a single INT across his last four appearances.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Ready to face Jags

    Dulin (hamstring) has had his injury designation removed for Saturday's game against Jacksonville.

    Dulin was initially listed as questionable to play Sunday, but after being activated from IR on Saturday he's now had that designation removed entirely. He'll be available to operate as a depth option in Indianapolis' wide receiver corps versus the Jaguars, as well as to contribute on kick returns with Anthony Gould (foot) having been placed on IR.

  • Sal Cannella TE | CLE

    Browns' Sal Cannella: Elevated from practice squad

    The Browns have elevated Cannella from the practice squad Saturday in advance of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Cannella is being elevated as a depth option at tight end with top playmaker Harold Fannin (groin) listed as questionable and David Njoku (groin) ruled out. The expectation is that Fannin will be good to go versus Pittsburgh, but Cannella will get a chance to handle third-string duties if the rookie starter ends up inactive.

  • Bailey Zappe QB | CLE

    Browns' Bailey Zappe: Elevated for Week 17

    Zappe has been elevated from the practice squad Saturday in advance of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Zappe will stand to either handle third-string QB duties versus Pittsburgh, or act as the No. 2 option behind Shedeur Sanders in the event that Dillon Gabriel (shoulder), who is listed as questionable, can't play. The last time Zappe saw the field was to make a single start for Cleveland in 2024, in which he completed 16 of 31 pass attempts for 170 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

  • Fred Warner MLB | SF

    49ers' Fred Warner: Could return during playoffs

    Warner (ankle) is ahead of schedule in his recovery and could be a candidate to return to action if the 49ers make a deep playoff run, Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network report.

    Warner was assigned a preliminary recovery timetable of four-to-six months upon undergoing surgery Oct. 14 to repair his dislocated and fractured right ankle, but he's reportedly ahead of schedule to the extent that an appearance in the NFC Championship Game and/or Super Bowl LX wouldn't be off the table, should the 49ers advance that far in the postseason. Per Rapoport and Garafolo, however, such an appearance on Warner's part remains unlikely, and he'd be expected to play on a snap count even in any case. Still, it's encouraging that Warner's recovery progress has proceeded so well, and even if he doesn't make another appearance this season, expectations are that Warner will be in 100 percent form to begin the 2025 campaign.

  • Colts' Drew Ogletree: Lands on IR

    The Colts placed Ogletree (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Ogletree will miss at least Indianapolis' next four games due to a neck injury suffered during the team's Week 16 loss to San Francisco. If the Colts manage to make a deep playoff run, the depth tight end could be a candidate to retake the field late January.

  • Anthony Gould WR | IND

    Colts' Anthony Gould: Sent to IR

    The Colts placed Gould (foot) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Gould will miss at least Indianapolis' next four games due to a foot injury he sustained Week 14, and which has kept him out of practice since. As such, his only chance of getting back on the field this season will rely on the Colts making a deep playoff run, and it's looking very unlikely that the team even gets in. Across 11 regular-season appearances in 2025, Gould has secured both of his targets for six yards while compiling 647 yards as a kick returner and 131 yards returning punts.

  • Colts' DeForest Buckner: Officially placed on IR

    The Colts placed Buckner (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Head coach Shane Steichen said on Friday that Buckner, who had just returned from a stint on IR in Week 16, aggravated his neck injury and will undergo a procedure in Week 18, per Amanda Foster of the team's official site. He initially injured his neck in Week 9. The veteran defensive tackle will be eligible to return from IR in late January if the Colts advance far enough into the playoffs, though it's unclear whether his recovery timetable would allow for that, plus the team has only a very slim chance of sneaking into the postseason.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Returns from IR, still Q

    Dulin (hamstring) has been activated from injured reserve Saturday and remains questionable for Sunday's contest against the Jaguars.

    Dulin is now eligible to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against Jacksonville, though his status may not be made official until roughly 90 minutes prior to the contest's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If cleared to play in Week 17, expect Dulin to resume handling his usual depth role on offense while also contributing in the return game.
