The Bears placed Dalton (hand) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

Dalton and cornerback Duke Shelley were deactivated for COVID-19-related reasons, becoming the 12th and 13th players on the roster to land on the list. Unless Dalton is quickly able to clear the necessary protocols in short order, he'll be sidelined for Monday's game against the Vikings. If that's the case, Nick Foles would serve as the understudy to starting quarterback Justin Fields.

Watson (not injury-related) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

While Watson is slated to land on the inactive list as he has all season long, Davis Mills is on track to handle Houston's starting quarterback duties this weekend, with Tyrod Taylor set to serve as his backup.

Jackson (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers after not practicing this week, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

That said, the Ravens are still holding out hope that the quarterback could be available for Sunday's game, which kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET. Per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, head coach John Harbaugh suggested a decision on Jackson's status will likely be made after the signal-caller is evaluate in a pregame warmup. Look for added context with regard to Jackson's Week 15 playing prospects by late Saturday or early Sunday, when the likes of Adam Schefter of ESPN and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network provide their weekly injury updates. If Jackson isn't able to play this weekend, Tyler Huntley would start in his place, with Josh Johnson on hand to back him up.

Rodgers (toe) has no injury designation for Sunday's game in Baltimore, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Rodgers sat out all three practices this week, just as he did Week 12 leading up to a win over the Rams. He then managed one limited practice last week before a victory over the Bears, but Rodgers scaled back this week after aggravating his toe in that game. So far, the toe fracture hasn't hurt his performance, with the veteran QB putting up three straight games of 300-plus yards and multiple touchdown passes.

Stafford and the Rams will no longer play the Seahawks on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Rams organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, Los Angeles will be able to restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. After Tuesday's game, the Rams will face a quick turnaround for Week 16 with a Sunday game in Minnesota on Dec. 26.

Wilson and the Seahawks will no longer play the Rams on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Rams organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, Los Angeles will be able to restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. After Tuesday's game, the Seahawks will face a quick turnaround for Week 16 with a Sunday matchup versus the Bears on Dec. 26.

Carr and the Raiders will no longer play the Browns on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Assuming the Week 15 game is played Monday as planned, Carr and Las Vegas will face a quick turnaround for the team's Week 16 contest versus the Broncos, which is still expected to be played Sunday, Dec. 26 as scheduled.

Mayfield (illness) and the Browns will no longer play the Raiders on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Even with the delay, Mayfield, who was placed on the list Wednesday as the result of a positive test, isn't a safe bet to clear the necessary protocols ahead of Monday's game. Neither is top backup Case Keenum after testing positive for the virus Thursday, so the Browns could turn to practice-squad call-up Nick Mullens to make a spot start in the event both Mayfield and Keenum aren't available.

Minshew and the Eagles will no longer play Washington on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Football Team will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. The delay should also provide more healing time for Eagles signal-caller Jalen Hurts, who sat out the Eagles' Week 13 win over the Jets with a left ankle sprain before Philadelphia went on bye Week 14. Hurts returned to practice this week and upgraded to full participation Friday after limited activity Wednesday and Thursday, but the Eagles still gave him a questionable designation heading into the weekend. Head coach Nick Sirianni previously said that Hurts would be the team's starter when healthy, but if the Eagles have any reservations about the second-year signal-caller's status by the time Tuesday arrives, Minshew will be prepared to make his second straight start. Minshew continued to share first-team reps in practice with Hurts this week, coming off an impressive Week 13 outing in which he completed 20 of 25 attempts for 242 yards and two touchdowns.

Head coach Nick Sirianni previously said that Hurts would be the team's starter when healthy, but if the Eagles have any reservations about the second-year signal-caller's status by the time Tuesday arrives, Gardner Minshew will be prepared to make his second straight start.
