The final week of the 2024 NFL regular season is here, and while some teams are still fighting for a playoff spot, seeding or a divisional title, others are just playing for pride.
For the teams already locked in their seeding, Week 18 doesn't hold much weight, meaning many will be resting their starters and key players to avoid injury risk. Some teams with seeding already decided may still choose to play some starters in order to go into the playoffs with some momentum.
Among those resting their starters are the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.
As for players dealing with injuries, Jalen Hurts (Eagles), Brock Purdy (49ers) and Anthony Richardson (Colts) are among the starting quarterbacks sidelined.
The Packers took two major hits in the first half -- on on the same drive -- against the Bears: Wide receiver Christian Watson got carted off with a non-contact knee injury, followed by quarterback Jordan Love suffering a right elbow injury. Both are listed as questionable to return.
Keep it here for all the latest on who's in and who's out, as well as injuries that occur during the final day of regular-season action.
The Packers QB told reporters after Sunday's game, to which he did not return after suffering an elbow injury, that he originally experienced numbness in his throwing hand after hitting his arm on the ground. He continued to lack feeling in his hand after the game, but added that he expects to be back on the field for the Packers' wild-card playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
