Arroyo (knee) will undergo more imaging in the near future to determine the severity of his injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Arroyo suffered a knee injury in the first half of the team's victory, ultimately failing to return to action. The rookie could be set to miss action moving forward, and if that's the case, Nick Kallerup would be a top candidate to operate as the top reserve option at tight end behind AJ Barner.

Coach Dan Quinn noted after Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Vikings that Ertz is feared to have torn his ACL, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Ertz is destined to undergo further testing to determine the extent of his knee injury, but it looks like the tight end is probably facing an extended absence. If that's the case, the Commanders would turn to John Bates, Ben Sinnott and Colson Yankoff to handle their TE duties down the stretch.

Njoku injured his knee during Sunday's contest against the Titans, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Per the report, Njoku sustained the injury on a one-yard touchdown catch with 14:24 remaining in the second quarter. Njoku then went directly to the locker room, and while he subsequently returned to the sideline, the tight end didn't immediately return to the game, per Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram. Look for added context once the Browns provide injury updates after Sunday's game, but it's worth noting that Njoku was managing a knee issue during practice this past week.

Ertz won't return to Sunday's game in Minnesota due to a knee injury.

Ertz took a hit to his knee on a Marcus Mariota incompletion directed his way in the third quarter. After visiting the sideline tent, Ertz was carted to the locker room and ruled out not long afterward. This appears to be a potentially serious injury, but for the time being he'll finish Week 14 with one catch (on two targets) for 11 yards.

Ertz was carted off the field with a lower leg injury in Sunday's game at Minnesota, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Ertz was hit hard in his knee area during a tackle and had to be helped off the field. He later left on a cart to the locker room.

Washington (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Ravens. Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

Washington, who caught his only target in the contest for 12 yards, will thus target a potential return to action Dec. 15 against the Dolphins. Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Connor Heyward are left to handle Pittsburgh's TE duties for the remainder of Week 14 action.

Njoku (knee) returned to the field during Sunday's game against the Titans, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

After getting his knee checked out, Njoku has returned from the locker room, thus bolstering a Cleveland TE corps that also includes Harold Fannin and Blake Whiteheart.

Washington is being evaluated for a possible concussion during Sunday's game against the Ravens, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

Before exiting the contest, Washington caught his only target for 12 yards. While he's unavailable, Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Connor Heyward are left to handle Pittsburgh's TE duties on Sunday.

Arroyo (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Arroyo is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Nick Kallerup is poised to see more snaps on offense as the Seahawks' TE2 behind AJ Barner for as long as Arroyo is out of the game.

Njoku exited Sunday's game against the Titans with a knee injury.

Prior to his departure from the contest, Njoku caught his only target for a one-yard TD. While he's sidelined, Harold Fannin and Blake Whiteheart are available to handle Cleveland's TE duties.
