Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that Horton (shin) recently underwent tests that should shine some light on his timeline to return, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Horton is eligible to return from injured reserve for Week 16, but Macdonald's comments sounded an awful lot like the coach-speak version of saying the rookie won't be ready soon. "It's still a process right now," said Macdonald. "We got some tests going on, not as we speak, but in the last day or two, and that'll be indicative of how fast we can accelerate everything."

Olszewski (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Olszewski was able to upgrade to a limited participant in practice Thursday and then a full participant Friday, signalling his ability to progress through the league's concussion protocol in a timely fashion. The ability to be cleared for full-contact practice implies the returner was able to move past his concussion and will likely play in Sunday's game. If he is unable to go, though, Eric Gray and Devin Singletary will be set to return kicks, and Wan'Dale Robinson will be set to return punts. Olszewski's absence would also possibly allow Jalin Hyatt an opportunity for more offensive snaps at wide receiver.

Weaver (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Weaver has not yet practiced in any capacity since he popped up on last Thursday's injury report with a hamstring issue. With Marvin Harrison (heel) also ruled out versus Houston, expect at least two of Jalen Brooks, Bryson Green, Tejhaun Palmer, Trent Sherfield or Steven Sims to be elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's contest.

Raymond (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Rams, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Raymond suffered an ankle injury Week 12 against the Giants and missed the Lions' last two contests as a result. After logging three consecutive limited practices this week, he's put himself in a position to return to action Sunday, but his status won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If he's able to suit up, he could be eased back in, as Isaac TeSlaa has taken on an expanded workload alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams during Raymond's absence.

Collins (neck/concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Collins was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, but a Thursday setback is what likely eliminated him from playing consideration for Sunday's game. The wide receiver will have to set his sights on a Week 16 return when the Giants take on the Vikings.

Washington (hip) was a full participant in Friday's practice and officially is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Washington opened Week 15 prep with back-to-back limited practice sessions, but after having no restrictions Friday, he now seems to be trending in the right direction. If Washington manages to gain clearance in time for Sunday's home matchup with New York, he'll compete for targets with all of Brian Thomas, Jakobi Meyers and tight end Brenton Strange.

Samuel (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Giants.

The Commanders added Samuel to their injury report at the end of the week, labeling him as a non-participant Friday. He'll have a couple of days to recover before a favorable matchup with the Giants at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. With TE Zach Ertz (knee) out for the season, QB Marcus Mariota already is running low on reliable pass catchers beyond Terry McLaurin.

Bateman (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Friday that Bateman is still "fighting through" a lingering ankle sprain, and that the team will make a decision about his availability on Saturday. If Bateman isn't able to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup, all of DeAndre Hopkins, Tylan Wallace, Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester will be candidates to benefit from increased snaps behind top wide receiver Zay Flowers.

Davis (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

The TCU product didn't practice all week after sustaining an ankle injury in the Chargers' Week 14 win over the Eagles, so it's no surprise he won't play Sunday. Davis has operated as the team's top return man in 2025, tallying 464 kick-return yards and 66 punt-return yards through 10 appearances. While he's out Week 15, expect KeAndre Lambert-Smith and Ladd McConkey to serve as Los Angeles' kick and punt returners, respectively.

Brown (personal) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Brown, who is tending to a personal matter, didn't practice Wednesday, was limited Thursday and then was listed as a non-participant Friday before being deemed out for Week 15. The wideout's next opportunity to return to the lineup will occur Sunday, Dec. 21 against the Titans. In Brown's absence this weekend, Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy figure to lead the Chiefs' Week 15 WR corps, with JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton candidates to see added snaps versus Los Angeles.
