Gaskin was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday and will not be able to play Sunday against the Chiefs, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

The designation means Gaskin either tested positive for COVID-19 or was in close proximity to someone who tested positive. With Matt Breida already on the reserve/COVID-19 list and Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) ruled out Friday, DeAndre Washington will essentially be forced into action as the starter with Patrick Laird and Lynn Bowden likely chipping in on passing downs.

Bohanon has re-signed with the Ravens' practice squad, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Bohanon was waived from the team's practice squad earlier in the week, but his time without a home will be short lived. He will now look to make an impression and wait for an opportunity to join the team's active roster.

Kelley (foot) has been cleared to play in Sunday's game versus the Falcons.

Kelley started the week as a non-participant, upgraded to limited status Thursday, and practiced at full speed to close out the week. The rookie has been cleared to play in Week 14. His role is yet to be determined, as Kelley, Austin Ekeler and Kalen Ballage haven't all stayed healthy for an entire game this season. Kelley, Ballage and Justin Jackson (IR - knee) are all candidates to handle the No. 2 backfield role for the remainder of the year.

Mattison (appendectomy) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.

Mike Boone and Ameer Abdullah will be on hand for the tiny share of backfield work that doesn't go to Dalvin Cook, while Mattison will miss a second straight game after his Dec. 5 appendectomy.

Coach Pete Carroll said Penny (knee) "looked great" in practice this week, but the earliest the running back will return is Week 15 at Washington, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

The Seahawks opened Penny's 21-day window to be activated from the PUP list Wednesday, and he's thoroughly impressed everyone in the organization so far. On Thursday, Russell Wilson noted Penny has "been electric" and is "physical, quick, catches the ball well, he picks up his protections," per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. Carroll followed up Wilson's comments with some of his own Friday, telling Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle that Penny has "exceeded our expectations with his movement and his quickness." The Seahawks can wait to bring Penny back until he's ready with Chris Carson, Carlos Hyde and DeeJay Dallas on hand. Having said that, Penny could factor into the mix immediately once he's back on the active roster.

Homer (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Jets, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Homer continues to battle the knee injury and is poised to miss his fourth consecutive contest. Chris Carson should continue to lead Seattle's backfield Week 14, with Carlos Hyde and DeeJay Dallas available as secondary options.

Jacobs (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts after logging limited practices both Thursday and Friday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com

Jacobs sat out Wednesday's session, but the fact that he practiced Thursday and Friday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- would seem to bode well for his Week 14 availability. Final confirmation of the running back's status will arrive once the Raiders inactives are released in advance of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Murray (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Philadelphia.

Murray was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant before returning to a full session Friday. He's generally been more involved in the offense with Taysom Hill at quarterback, but Murray got just five carries and two targets in the Week 13 win over Atlanta.

Drake (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, with coach Kliff Kingsbury suggesting he expects the running back to play, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Drake was added to the injury report Thursday, logging back-to-back limited practices to close out the week. He should be fine to handle his usual backfield role, taking the majority of carries while Chase Edmonds gets most of the playing time on passing snaps. Edmonds would be in line for a three-down workload if Drake makes an unexpected appearance on the inactive list before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Swift (illness) was a full practice participant Friday but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Interim coach Darrell Bevell said Swift has been making progress, culminating in his first full practice since Wednesday of Week 11. The rookie broke out for 149 yards from scrimmage on a season-high 73-percent snap share the last time he suited up, but it's possible he slides back into a committee after missing three straight games. Swift at least appears on track to play, be it as a three-down workhorse or as part of a timeshare. The Packers and Lions are scheduled for a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, with Detroit needing to pull off the upset to have any realistic shot at competing for a wild-card spot.
