Colts LB Darius Leonard (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. He practiced every day this week, including a full workout Friday. So we'd bet on Leonard playing, especially after he played through a questionable tag last week after less practice participation. It also seems pretty clear that he's operating at less than 100%, though.
Buccaneers LB Devin White is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts. He's dealing with a quad injury that kept him out of Wednesday's practice. White returned for limited workouts Thursday and Friday. HC Bruce Arians told reporters Friday that White will be a game-time decision. He said the same about DT Vita Vea, who put in limited practices all week with the knee injury that kept him out of Week 11.
Patriots TE Hunter Henry (neck) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Titans. We've heard no reason to believe that Henry is in danger of missing this one, but check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure he's active.
Patriots RBs Damien Harris (neck) and Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) are listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Titans. Harris got in 3 limited practices this week. Stevenson was added to the injury report on Thursday and limited in the final 2 practices of the week. We're expecting both guys to play on Sunday, but check back that morning when we get New England's inactives.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. He's fully expected to play after getting out of last week's game without a setback. Barkley carried just 6 times in that loss to the Bucs but caught all 6 of his targets. His role should grow in his 2nd game back from the ankle injury.
Giants WR Sterling Shepard (quad) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. WR Kadarius Toney (quad) is listed as doubtful. TE Kyle Rudolph (ankle) is also doubtful, while WR John Ross (quad) is questionable. Kenny Golladay and Darius Slayton will operate as New York's top 2 WRs this weekend. TE Evan Engram should at least theoretically play a big role in the passing game.
Bucs WR Mike Evans (back) isn't listed on the final injury report. He sat out on Wednesday and Thursday with what HC Bruce Arians called "back tightness" but put in a full practice on Friday. Evans is safe to get into fantasy lineups for Sunday's plus matchup vs. the Colts' 26th-ranked WR defense.
Browns WR Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Ravens after getting in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. DPJ isn’t a fantasy option at less than 100%. WR Anthony Schwartz (concussion) has been ruled out.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (illness) put in a full week of practice and isn't listed on the final injury report. He's ready to roll for Sunday night's game vs. the Browns and should be back in fantasy lineups.
Ravens WR Marquise Brown (thigh) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game vs. the Browns. The timing of this game could leave Brown owners in a tricky spot. We'll look for an update on his status on Sunday morning.
Titans WR A.J. Brown (chest) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Patriots. He didn't practice all week, so his status for Week 13 and beyond is uncertain. WRs Julio Jones and Marcus Johnson are also out, leaving Tennessee with WRs Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Dez Fitzpatrick and Chester Rogers. It's a very tough spot for Ryan Tannehill against the league's 2nd-ranked QB defense.
Steelers TE Eric Ebron (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals. He’s expected to miss “extended time” with this injury. Ebron’s absence should mean a playing-time boost for TE Pat Freiermuth.
Falcons RB Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He supposedly had a chance to play vs. New England last Thursday night and put in 3 limited practices this week, so we're tentatively expecting Patterson to play. We'll get Atlanta's inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
Raiders TE Darren Waller has been diagnosed with a strained IT band in his knee, sources tell NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero. Rapoport calls it "some very good news" but doesn't give a timetable for Waller's return. We'll look for further updates.
Lions RB D'Andre Swift is considered "day to day" with the shoulder injury he suffered on Thanksgiving, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. So Swift dodged a serious injury and seemingly has a shot to be ready for Week 13. RB Jamaal Williams will still be worth adding if available on waivers wires in case Swift can't play vs. the Vikings next weekend.
Eagles RB Jordan Howard (knee) is out for Sunday’s game against the Giants. He reportedly has a shot to be back for Week 13. Howard’s absence this weekend will leave Miles Sanders and Boston Scott as Philly’s primary ball-carriers vs. the league’s 27th-ranked RB defense.
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski said Friday that he expects RB Kareem Hunt (calf) to play vs. the Ravens on Sunday night. Hunt has been out since Week 6 but returned to practice this week. In 5 games alongside RB Nick Chubb this season, Hunt has averaged 11.0 carries and 4.2 targets to Chubb's 18 carries and 1 target. Expect a similar workload split this weekend.
Raiders TE Darren Waller is scheduled for an MRI on his injured knee on Friday, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Waller wasn't in a lot of pain after the win over the Cowboys, Rapoport adds. We should learn more about Waller's status by the end of today.
The bone bruise to Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott's knee is expected to linger for the rest of the season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones mentioned after Thursday's loss to the Raiders that the team will need to alter the game plan to reduce Zeke's volume going forward. We saw that on Thanksgiving, with Elliott handling 9 carries and 8 targets to RB Tony Pollard's 10 carries and 4 targets. We'll keep a close eye on this split in coming weeks. But, for now, consider Elliott more of a high-end RB2 and Pollard a viable RB3 or flex play.
Bills CB Tre'Davious White left in the 1st half of Thursday night's game against the Saints after injuring his left knee. The team has deemed him doubtful to return. The worry is that the non-contact injury could be more serious than that. We'll see about the official diagnosis.
