Howell (coach's decision) is inactive but operating as the Eagles' emergency third quarterback Sunday versus the Bills.

Howell will once again serve as the team's No. 3 option at QB in Week 17. The 25-year-old will only be able to enter the game if both Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee are sidelined.

Wilson is the Giants' emergency third QB for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

Jaxson Dart will thus be backed up by Jameis Winston on Sunday, with Wilson once again set to serve as the team's No. 3 QB in Week 17. Barring an injury to Dart or Winston, that's a role Wilson figures to reprise in next weekend's season finale.

O'Connell (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Raiders' emergency third quarterback against the Giants on Sunday.

O'Connell will not be allowed to play Sunday unless both Geno Smith and Kenny Pickett were to be taken out of the game due to injury, illness or ejection. O'Connell has yet to see regular-season action in 2025.

Milroe (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Seahawks' emergency third quarterback against the Panthers on Sunday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Milroe will be the QB3 while Drew Lock serves as Sam Darnold's backup. As such, Milore is not allowed to play Sunday unless both Darnold and Lock were to leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection. Milroe hasn't played since Week 5 against the Buccaneers.

Bazelak (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, but will serve as the Buccaneers' emergency third quarterback for the game, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

Bazelak will continue in his typical role as the No. 3 quarterback behind Baker Mayfield and Teddy Bridgewater. The reserve QB will only be able to enter the game if both quarterbacks on the active roster must exit due to injury, illness, or ejection.

Gabriel (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Gabriel finds himself inactive for the first time this season, and his shoulder injury appears to be severe enough to prevent him from backing up fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders in Sunday's contest. Bailey Zappe will serve as Sanders' understudy this week.

Davis (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest against New England.

Davis exited the contest after suffering a blow to the head, and his day has now officially come to an end due to a concussion. With Davis now in concussion protocol, it's possible his season has come to an end with just one game remaining.

Hall was forced out of Sunday's game against the Patriots with a knee injury.

Before his exit from the contest, Hall carried 14 times for 111 yards and a TD and caught two of his three targets for 18 yards. Meanhile, Isaiah Davis was ruled out of the remainder of the contest due to a concussion, leaving Khalil Herbert and Kene Nwangwu to handle the Jets' RB carries as Sunday's game winds down.

Davis is being evaluated for a concussion in Sunday's contest against the Patriots.

Davis suffered a head injury in the second half, and his status for the rest of the game is now in question. In his absence, Khalil Herbert will stand to operate as the team's No. 2 option at running back behind starter Breece Hall.

Dillon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Dillon has not appeared in a regular-season game since Week 6 against the Giants, and his last opportunity to do so is Week 18 against the Commanders. Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley will continue to serve as the Eagles' rotational running backs behind Saquon Barkley.

White is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

With Raheem Mostert (ankle) inactive for Sunday's game, White will be the running back No. 3 behind Ashton Jeanty and Dylan Laube. The 26-year-old may have a chance for some special teams snaps or rotational rushes in Sunday's contest.

Mostert (ankle/knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Mostert earned the questionable tag for Week 17 after logging a limited practice Friday, but he will not end up not playing Sunday after going through pregame warmups. Dylan Laube and Zamir White will serve as the backup running backs behind Ashton Jeanty against the Giants.

Harrison left Sunday's game in Cincinnati due to a heel injury.

Harrison sat out Weeks 14 and 15 due to a heel issue but has been able to suit up for both of the Cardinals' last two contests. Upon his departure in the fourth quarter this Sunday, he was unable to haul in his only target. For as long as Harrison is sidelined, Michael Wilson will continue to pace the team's receiving corps, with WRs Xavier Weaver, Jalen Brooks and Steven Sims the other available options at the position.

Davis is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

With Keon Coleman inactive, Buffalo's Week 17 WR corps will be comprised of Davis, Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, Tyrell Shavers and Brandin Cooks. In four games thus far this season, Davis has caught seven of his 10 targets for 88 yards.

Coleman is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

With Coleman inactive, Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, Gabe Davis, Tyrell Shavers and Brandin Cooks are slated to handle Buffalo's Week 17 wide-receiver duties.

Bech (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Bech popped up on Friday's injury report due to a back injury and has not been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. Bech's absence means Tyler Lockett, Alex Bachman and Dont'e Thornton are in line for larger roles on offense alongside Tre Tucker. With the Raiders eliminated from playoff contention, Bech's last opportunity to play this season is Week 18 against the Chiefs.

Shaheed has been diagnosed with a concussion and won't return to Sunday's game at Carolina, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Shaheed was slammed to the turf out of bounds at the end of his eight-yard catch near the end of the first quarter and was slow to get up. He was evaluated for a possible head injury, which now has been confirmed. With Shaheed out for the rest of Week 17 and Cody White also exiting due to a groin injury, Cooper Kupp, Dareke Young and Jake Bobo currently are the healthy WRs available to Seattle's offense that aren't named Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Dorsett (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Dorsett was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, but the veteran wide receiver's services are not needed for Sunday's contest. With Jack Bech (back) inactive, the Raiders will go with five active wide receivers in Tre Tucker, Tyler Lockett, Alex Bachman, Dont'e Thornton and Shedrick Jackson.

Knox (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Knox was deemed a non-participant at practice Wednesday and Thursday, before being listed limited Friday and questionable for Sunday. With Dalton Kincaid (knee) inactive, Knox is in a position to lead Buffalo's Week 17 TE corps, with Jackson Hawes and Keleki Latu available to mix in. Knox thus represents a possible pivot option for those who would normally rely on Kincaid in their fantasy lineups.

Kincaid (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Kincaid was listed as a non-participant at practice Wednesday and Thursday, before being deemed limited Friday and questionable to face Philadelphia. Now that he's been made inactive, Dawson Knox will have an opportunity to lead the Bills' Week 17 TE corps, with Jackson Hawes and Keleki Latu also in the mix. Kincaid will thus target a return to action in Week 18 versus the Jets.

Fannin (groin) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Fannin appears to have aggravated the groin injury that caused him to initially be listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional matchup. He ends the day having secured both of his targets for 30 yards and one touchdown. With David Njoku (knee) already ruled out, Blake Whiteheart, Brenden Bates and Sal Cannella will operate as Cleveland's available tight ends for the remainder of Sunday's game.

Washington (forearm) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

Washington thus finishes the contest with two catches for 15 yards. In his absence, Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith and Connor Heyward will handle Pittsburgh's tight-end duties Sunday.

Washington exited Sunday's game against the Browns with a forearm injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Before that, Washington caught both of his targets for 15 yards. While he's sidelined, Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith and Connor Heyward are available to handle the Steelers' Week 17 TE reps.

Fannin exited Sunday's game against the Steelers with a groin injury.

Fannin approached the game listed as questionable due to a groin injury, so it looks like the tight end aggravated the issue Sunday. Prior to his departure from the contest, Fannin caught both of his targets for 30 yards and a TD. In his absence, Blake Whiteheart, Brenden Bates and Sal Cannella are available to handle TE reps versus Pittsburgh.

Karty (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Karty was signed to off the Rams' practice squad to the Cardinals' active roster Tuesday, with Arizona bringing in the second-year pro to compete with Chad Ryland for kicking duties. Ryland will serve as the Cardinals' kicker Sunday, so Karty's last opportunity to play this season is Week 18 against the Rams.

Ryland is listed as active Sunday at Cincinnati while fellow K Joshua Karty was deemed a healthy scratch, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Arizona signed Karty off the Rams' practice squad Tuesday, providing competition for Ryland down the stretch of the 2025 season. Ryland will remain the team's placekicker Week 17, but after connecting on just eight of 14 field-goal attempts over the last six games, he may need to perform close to perfect Sunday to be active Week 18 at the Rams.

Smyth (illness) is active for Sunday's game in Tennessee.

Smyth capped Week 17 prep with a limited practice Friday due to an illness that left him questionable in advance of the weekend. Because the Saints don't roster a kicker on the practice squad nor did they sign a kicker to the active roster Saturday, he was in line to resume his standing as the team's placekicker Sunday, which has been confirmed. In four appearances for New Orleans so far, Smyth has netted nine of 11 field-goal attempts and all seven point-after tries.

McManus connected on his lone field-goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries during the Packers' 41-24 loss to the Ravens on Saturday.

McManus' lone field goal Saturday was a 24-yard chip shot early in the third quarter to cut the Packers' deficit to 10 points. He has not missed a kick since Week 10 against the Eagles, having gone 12-for-12 on field-goal attempts (including 3-for-3 on attempts from 40-plus yards) and 16-for-16 on point-after tries over his last six games.

Loop made both of his field-goal attempts and all five of his point-after tries during the Ravens' 41-24 win over the Packers on Saturday.

Loop's leg wasn't challenged Saturday, as he chipped in field goals from 22 and 34 yards in the second quarter. It was the ninth time that the rookie sixth-rounder connected on at least two field goals in a game this season. Since the Ravens' Week 7 bye, Loop has gone 20-for-22 on field-goal attempts (with both misses coming from 50-plus yards) and 26-for-27 on extra-point tries.

Dicker converted just one of his two field-goal attempts and missed one of his two extra-point tries in Saturday's loss to the Texans.

Dicker missed a 32-yard field-goal try to end the half, the shortest field-goal miss of his career and the only miss under 40 yards. Additionally, he missed the extra point on an Omarion Hampton touchdown run late in the fourth quarter that would have cut the Texans' lead to three points. The kicker will have to look toward next week's divisional matchup with the Broncos to bounce back from Saturday's disaster.

Luvu recorded seven tackles (three solo) and one pass defense during the Commanders' 30-23 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.

Luvu joined Will Harris and Bobby Wagner as the three Commanders defenders to play all 92 snaps during their Christmas Day loss. The eighth-year pro is up to 85 combined tackles through 16 regular-season games, and he would need a big day against the Eagles in Week 18 in order to reach the tackling century mark for the third time in his NFL career.

Harris logged 10 tackles (five solo) during the Commanders' 30-23 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.

Harris recorded career highs in tackles and defensive snaps (92) to finish tied with Bobby Wagner for the most stops on the Commanders on Christmas Day. Harris has accumulated 24 tackles (13 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass defenses in the five games since Washington's Week 12 bye. With the Commanders eliminated from postseason contention, Week 18 against the Eagles is Harris' last opportunity to pad his stats.

Reddick was evaluated for a concussion in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Reddick exited the contest late in the fourth quarter, and he was ultimately checked for a concussion. More information on his status will likely come in the near future.

Wagner logged 10 tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one pass defense during the Commanders' 30-23 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.

Wagner played all 92 defensive snaps Christmas Day, which was the second-most in his career (94 defensive snaps in Week 7 of the 2016 season). He combined with Jer'Zhan Newton for a five-yard sack on Dak Prescott midway through the third quarter, bringing Wagner up 2.5 sacks over his last four games. Wagner has accumulated 157 combined tackles through 16 regular-season games, which is currently the fifth most in his 14-year NFL career. Week 18 against the Eagles is Wagner's last opportunity to add to his tackling total.

Newton recorded nine tackles (three solo), including 3.0 sacks, during the Commanders' 30-23 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.

Newton took down Dak Prescott behind the line of scrimmage four times Thursday, two of which were solo sacks. Newton's three sacks were the most in his two-year NFL career and the first time that he has recorded double-digit sacks in a game. The 2024 second-rounder is up to 38 tackles (21 solo), including 5.0 sacks, one pass defense and one forced fumble through 16 regular-season games.

Muhammad posted 2.0 sacks during the Lions' 23-10 loss to the Vikings on Thursday.

Muhammad sacked Max Brosmer twice for losses of 10 and five yards in the second and third quarters, respectively. Muhammad's efforts Christmas Day brought him to 11.0 sacks through 16 regular-season games, which marks the first time in his NFL career that he has recorded double-digit sacks in a season. His last opportunity to add to that total is Week 18 against the Bears.
