Kevin Zeitler OG | TEN
Titans' Kevin Zeitler: Chance to play Week 16
Zeitler (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Zeitler sustained a groin injury during the Titans' loss to the 49ers in Week 15. He ended Week 16 prep with back-to-back limited practices to earn the questionable tag, but if he ends up not playing, then Corey Levin, Drew Moss and Garrett Dellinger would be the top candidates to start at right guard.

Bengals' PJ Jules: Questionable for Week 16
Jules (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Jules has a chance to return Sunday from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury he sustained in Week 14 against the Bills. His return would give the Bengals more depth in the secondary, though he's spent most of the 2025 regular season as a contributor on special teams.

Trey Pipkins OT | LAC
Chargers' Trey Pipkins: Questionable for Sunday
Pipkins (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Pipkins was unable to suit up for last Sunday's divisional win over the Chiefs due to his ankle injury, and now his status for Sunday's game against the Cowboys is in question. The tackle was a limited participant in practice all week, meaning he is likely trending towards playing in Sunday's game. If the 29-year-old is unable to suit up, Trevor Penning will likely function as the relief option at offensive tackle in his stead.

Collin Oliver DE | GB
Packers' Collin Oliver: Not playing Saturday
Oliver (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Saturday's game against the Bears, Paul Bretl of the Wisconsin State Journal reports.
Oliver opened the regular season on the reserve/PUP list due to a hamstring injury. He was initially tagged as questionable for Saturday's game, but he has not progressed enough in his injury recovery to make his 2025 regular-season debut. Given his 21-day practice window opened Dec. 1, Oliver would have to be activated from injured reserve or else be forced to miss the rest of the 2025 campaign.

Jaylon Moore OT | KC
Chiefs' Jaylon Moore: Ruled out with knee issue
Moore (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.
Moore was unable to practice at all this week after suffering a knee injury in last Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers. The offensive tackle's absence makes an already bad Chiefs offensive line situation worse, with Jawaan Taylor (triceps), Josh Simmons (wrist) and Wanya Morris (knee) all already on injured reserve. The Chiefs are starting to run out of bodies to throw on the offensive line, as backup center Hunter Nourzad or backup guard Mike Caliendo will likely have to start at right tackle for Sunday's game.

E.J. Speed LB | HOU
Texans' E.J. Speed: Clears injury designation
Speed (knee) has no injury designation heading into Sunday's matchup against the Raiders.
Speed upgraded to full participation in practice Friday and is now ready to go Sunday against the Raiders after missing Week 15 with an ankle injury. The 30-year-old has 47 tackles (28 solo) and one pass breakup in 13 games this season.

Brenton Cox Jr. DE | GB
Packers' Brenton Cox: Activated from injured reserve
The Packers activated Cox (groin) from injured reserve Friday, but he is still listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Chicago, Paul Bretl of the Wisconsin State Journal reports.
Cox has been on injured reserve since suffering a groin injury in Week 1. His activation from IR indicates that he'll be available for Saturday's NFC North tilt, and if he's cleared to play, then he'll give the Packers a much-needed boost on the defensive line in the absence of Micah Parsons (knee - IR).

Zak Zinter G | CLE
Browns' Zak Zinter: Available to play Week 16
Zinter (back) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bills, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Zinter sustained a back injury during the Browns' Week 14 loss to the Titans. He's progressed enough in his recovery to be available Sunday, when he'll provide the Browns with depth on the offensive line.
-
Nazeeh Johnson CB | KC
Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Ruled out for Sunday
Johnson (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.
Johnson was ruled out despite logging three consecutive full practices this week. The cornerback has not yet returned from IR, where he has resided since Aug. 27. It is worth considering that Johnson is ready to return, but the Chiefs do not currently feel comfortable allocating roster space to the cornerback. As of now, the 27-year-old will remain on IR and will look towards Week 17 against the Broncos as a potential return game.

Teven Jenkins G | CLE
Browns' Teven Jenkins: Cleared to play Week 16
Jenkins (shoulder) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bills, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Jenkins sustained a shoulder injury during the Browns' Week 15 loss to the Bears. He's been cleared to play Sunday after logging a full practice Friday, though he could lose his starting spot at right guard if Wyatt Teller (calf) is given the green light to return from a two-game absence.
