The Bears elevated Kalinic from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Pittsburgh.

This is Kalinic's first elevation of the campaign after he signed with Chicago's practice squad in late August. The 28-year-old has played in nine career NFL games -- seven in 2022 with Indianapolis and two in 2024 with the Rams -- and has yet to see a passing target. The Bears have three other healthy tight ends (Cole Kmet, Colston Loveland and Durham Smythe) on the roster, so Kalinic could be on the outside looking in for any offensive snaps Sunday.

The Cardinals elevated Brown from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Brown was added to Arizona's practice squad in mid-October. He made his first appearance with the team in Week 11 against San Francisco, recording 11 offensive snaps and 10 on special teams. The 31-year-old will again be available for Week 12 as TE4 behind Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Josiah Deguara should Brown be active.

The Jaguars activated Strange (hip) from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Strange was a limited participant in practice all week, and though he's still carrying a designation into Sunday, his activation from IR indicates that he'll likely make his return to the lineup following a five-game absence. With Hunter Long (hip) ruled out for Week 12, Strange should step back in as the Jaguars' top tight end on the depth chart while Quintin Morris and Johnny Mundt provide depth at the position. Prior to his injury, Strange caught 20 passes (on 24 targets) for 204 yards across five appearances.

Latu reverted to the Bills' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Latu played 24 snaps (eight on offense, 16 on special teams) during the Bills' 23-19 loss to the Texans on Thursday, but he did not show up in the box score otherwise. It was his second elevation from the practice squad this season, so the undrafted rookie is eligible to be called up to Buffalo's active roster once more this season.

Kincaid (hamstring) is improving in his recovery, head coach Sean McDermott said Friday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Kincaid hasn't practiced or played since hurting his hamstring in Buffalo's Week 10 loss to the Dolphins. After Thursday's loss to the Texans, the Bills don't play again until Nov. 30 at Pittsburgh. If Kincaid resumes practicing prior to that game, that could put him on track to return against the Steelers.

Strange (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Arizona, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Unlike last week, when he was ruled out on the Jaguars' final injury report, Strange has a chance to return to action this weekend, but the team will need to activate him from IR by Saturday afternoon before not including him on its Week 12 list of inactives. Fellow TE Hunter Long (hip/knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest, so if Strange is able to suit up, he'll join Quintin Morris and Johnny Mundt as options at the position.

Long (hip/knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Arizona, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Long will miss a third consecutive contest due to hip and knee injuries, but he has strung together five straight limited listings going back to last week, signaling that a return to action may be possible as soon as Sunday, Nov. 30 at Tennessee. Meanwhile, fellow TE Brenton Strange (hip) is listed as questionable, but he'll need to be activated from injured reserve by Saturday afternoon in order to have a chance to play Sunday. Quintin Morris and Johnny Mundt currently are the healthy options at the position on the active roster.

Likely (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Likely increased his practice participation level throughout the week, culminating in a full practice Friday. He has had a disappointing season in a contract year, recording only 12 catches for 118 yards in seven appearances.

Okonkwo (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Okonkwo was limited in all three of Seattle's practices during the week but has the green light to suit up Sunday. He has 119 receiving yards on 12 targets over the past four games, while rookie fourth-round pick Gunnar Helm has 103 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets during that span. Both Titans tight ends could see substantial involvement Sunday with the team depleted at wide receiver against a Seahawks defense that's allowing a league-high 6.7 receptions per game to tight ends.

Hooper (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Hooper practiced without limitations Thursday and Friday after a limited session Wednesday, and he has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. Hunter Henry remains New England's top pass catcher among tight ends. but Hooper could find success against a Bengals defense that has been by far the worst in the league at defending the position, allowing a league-high 80.8 receiving yards per game to tight ends, as well as 12 touchdowns to the position in 10 games.
