The 49ers have listed QB Josh Johnson, WR Steve Johnson, OL Marcus Martin, OL Anthony Davis, S Raymond Ventrone, CB Tramaine Brock and CB Chris Culliver as inactive Week 15 against the Seahawks. 

Brock, Culliver, Martin and Ventrone all came into the contest listed as questionable, but none of them will play. Stevie Johnson had been ruled out prior to Sunday. Both Josh Johnson and Anthony Davis are healthy scratches. 

Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy is being considered questionable to return Week 15 against the Giants after aggravating a neck injury on the team's opening drive. He came into the game as questionable due to the neck injury.

McCoy was 4 of 7 for 39 yards on the opening drive. He also had two rushes for 23 yards. Robert Griffin III came on to replace McCoy on the team's second drive as the Giants went on to win 24-13 behind three TD passes from Eli Manning.

RG3 scrambled for an apparent 8-yard touchdown as the half expired for a 17-7 lead. The video review showed that Griffin lost control of the ball diving into the end zone and the play was ruled a touchback. 

Griffin completed 18 of 27 passes for 236 yards and a TD, and rushed for 46 yards on five carries.

Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin, wide receiver Denarius Moore, linebacker Sio Moore, guard Tony Bergstrom, tackle Menelik Watson, tight end Brian Leonhardt and defensive tackle Stacy McGee were ruled inactive Week 15 against the Chiefs.

The Texans declared wideout Andre Johnson (concussion), tight end Garrett Graham (ankle), linebacker Whitney Mercilus (back), defensive back Josh Aubrey, quarterback Thad Lewis, cornerback Andre Hal and guard Xavier Su'a-Filo inactive for the game at Indianapolis.

Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins, running back Roy Helu, safety Brandon Meriweather, linebacker Keenan Robinson, guard Josh LeRibeus, wide receiver Leonard Hankerson and defensive end Jason Hatcher were ruled inactive Week 15 against the Giants.

Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy was cleared to play Sunday against the Giants after being listed as questionable on the injury report due to a neck injury. McCoy was able to practice in full Friday.

McCoy will be facing a Giants defense yielding 236.8 passing yards per game. The Giants have also allowed 20 passing touchdowns in 13 games.

After visiting a neck specialist, Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy was medically cleared to play Sunday against the Giants, a team source told ESPN on Friday. McCoy took all first-team reps during Friday's practice and was formally listed as questionable for the game prior to his visit. It remains to be seen if he'll be officially upgraded to probable leading up to the game.

McCoy was picked off twice and held to 199 passing yards against the Rams before leaving on the final drive of Week 14 with the injury. He has four touchdowns and three interceptions through four games played.

The Redskins enter Week 14 pretty banged up, with 10 players listed on its final injury report for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Linebacker Will Compton (shoulder) and defensive lineman Barry Cofield Jr. (illness) were the only two players on the report deemed probable. Defensive end Jason Hatcher (knee), defensive end Kedric Golston (back, foot), wide receiver DeSean Jackson (shin), quarterback Colt McCoy (neck) and defensive lineman Chris Baker (chest, toe) were all ruled as questionable.

Meanwhile, running back Roy Helu Jr. (toe), safety Brandon Meriweather (toe) and linebacker Keenan Robinson (knee) were all ruled out for the game.

Redskins coach Jay Gruden said quarterback Colt McCoy received all first-team reps in Friday's practice and has been deemed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants. Gruden indicated the only reason he was labeled questionable on the injury report is because McCoy has yet to visit a neck specialist, which he is scheduled to do so later on Friday, per the team's official website.

"We've just got to make sure he's OK, that he can withstand the punishment," Gruden said.

Jay Gruden has given the thumbs-up for Colt McCoy to start at quarterback for the Redskins on Sunday against the Giants if he is cleared physically.

McCoy sustained a neck strain in the Week 14 game that limited him in practice Wednesday. He struggled Sunday in a shutout loss to St. Louis after performing well as a starter the previous game.
