Flacco (right shoulder) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Flacco was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, but a full session Friday paves the way for him to be available versus New England. However, whether he starts Sunday remains to be seen, with the Week 12 status of Joe Burrow (toe) -- who is still on IR and listed as questionable after a limited practice Friday -- yet to be determined, per Ben Baby of ESPN.com. With that in mind, coach Zac Taylor said, "We'll take the time we've got, assess all the practice we've had this week," while adding that "(Burrow's) done everything he can to try to put himself and get ready to go. Now I have to make a decision on what we do." Either way, added context regarding Cincinnati's QB situation will arrive no later than Saturday afternoon, which is the deadline for the team to activate Burrow off IR this week.

Burrow (toe) was limited at Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Burrow underwent surgery on Sept. 21 to address the Grade 3 turf toe injury that he suffered Week 2. Initially, he was believed to be facing a three-month recovery, but he's now put together two weeks of practice since the Bengals designated him for return from injured reserve Nov. 10. Prior to Friday's capped session, Burrow logged full practices Wednesday and Thursday, while Joe Flacco, the other QB in the conversation for the Week 12 start, followed an LP/LP/FP practice regimen this week and doesn't have a designation. Speaking on the eventual decision, coach Zac Taylor told Ben Baby of ESPN.com on Friday that the Bengals will "take the time we've got, assess all the practice we've had this week. He's done everything he can to try to put himself and get ready to go." Cincinnati will need to activate Burrow from IR by Saturday afternoon in order for him to have a chance to be active ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Allen had his left shoulder examined by athletic trainers during Thursday's 23-19 loss to the Texans but stayed in the game and told reporters "we're good" regarding the injury after the game, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Allen, who was also seen shaking out his right hand after one of the eight sacks he took in Thursday's loss, should be fine moving forward. He'll have a few extra days to recover before what could be another physically grueling game against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 30. If Allen is dealing with any physical limitations coming out of Thursday's loss, those would be revealed when the Bills resume practicing Wednesday.

Zappe will operate as the Browns' No. 2 quarterback in Sunday's matchup against the Raiders, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

With Dillon Gabriel (concussion) being ruled out for the Week 12 matchup, the Western Kentucky product will back up Shedeur Sanders in his first career NFL start. Zappe started one game for the Browns in 2024, completing 16 of 31 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

Coach Mike Tomlin noted Friday that Rodgers (left wrist) was limited at practice Friday and will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Earlier this week, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com relayed that Rodgers' Week 12 status is, in the words of the QB, "a safety thing" rather than a pain-management issue. In the wake of back-to-back practices, Rodgers could end up being a game-day call, but fortunately for those considering him in fantasy lineups this week, the Steelers kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. If he's unavailable versus Chicago, however, Mason Rudolph would be in line to draw the start in his place.

Gabriel (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

That said, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic, coach Kevin Stefanski indicated Friday that the QB -- who has yet to fully clear concussion protocol -- "continues to get better...doing great." Gabriel's next chance to see game action will arrive Sunday, Nov. 30 against the 49ers, with Shedeur Sanders slated to start Sunday, backed up by Bailey Zappe.

Coach Shane Steichen noted that Jones (fibula) practiced fully Friday and is good to go for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Jones was added to the Colts' Week 12 injury report after being limited Thursday with what initially was described as a calf injury. Per Stephen Holder of ESPN.com, upon further evaluation it was deemed that the QB was managing a fibula issue, but either way Jones is slated to get the the start Sunday. In 10 games prior to the Colts' Week 11 bye, Jones threw for 2,659 yards and 15 TDs, to go along with seven picks. Additionally, he added 143 rushing yards and five TDs on the ground during that span.

Gabriel (concussion) is practicing Friday, but he has yet to fully clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Shedeur Sanders has already been declared the starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Raiders, but Gabriel still has a chance to be available in a backup role. Gabriel would have to clear concussion protocol to be active Sunday, which would involve practicing without limitations Friday and subsequently gaining clearance from an independent neurologist. If Gabriel's ultimately ruled out, Bailey Zappe would likely work as Sanders' backup Sunday.

Burrow (toe) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Coach Zac Taylor noted that at this stage the Bengals have yet to determine their Week 12 starter at QB. In any case, in order for Burrow to have a chance to face New England on Sunday, he would have to be activated from IR by Saturday afternoon. If Burrow isn't ready to return to the lineup, however, Joe Flacco (right shoulder) would be in line to get the nod versus the Patriots, assuming he's available after being limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday.

Winston will start Sunday's game against the Lions, as Jaxson Dart remains in concussion protocol, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The Giants were optimistic earlier in the week that Dart would gain clearance to return following a one-game absence, but interim head coach Mike Kafka ruled Dart out Friday. Winston will make his second consecutive start after completing 19 of 29 passes for 201 yards with no touchdowns and one interception, while adding three rushes for 10 yards and a touchdown in a 27-20 Week 11 loss to the Packers.
