  • Jalen Guyton WR | LV

    Chargers' Jalen Guyton: Won't play Sunday

    Guyton (coach's decision) is officially inactive for Sunday's matchup with Kansas City.

    Guyton had played three of the last four games, playing 19 offensive snaps and failing to haul in either of his two targets in that span. With Guyton healthy scratched Sunday, Jason Moore and Andre Patton will draw the depth receiver snaps.

  • Browns' Odell Beckham Jr.: Will play in finale

    Beckham (groin/illness) is active Week 17 against the Bengals.

    Beckham began the week with back-to-back limited practices before sitting out Friday's session, but it was reported earlier Sunday morning that he would be in line to play. His absence from the official Week 17 inactive list confirms that, setting Beckham up to play through both an illness and a groin injury in the regular-season finale. Beckham caught just his third touchdown pass of the season last week against Baltimore, and he now goes up against a Cincinnati defense responsible for the 11th-lowest fantasy points per game average to opposing receivers in PPR formats in 2019.

  • Texans' DeAndre Hopkins: Likely to rest Week 17

    Hopkins (illness), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, is expected to be active for the contest but won't be in line to play much, a source told Dianna Russini of ESPN.

    The Texans can move up from the AFC's No. 4 seed to the No. 3 spot with a win and a Kansas City loss, but coach Bill O'Brien apparently isn't inclined to expose Hopkins or quarterback Deshaun Watson (back) to injury with the postseason on the horizon. Houston may already be locked into the No. 4 seed by the time the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff arrives, as the Chiefs host the Chargers as part of the 1 p.m. ET slate. With Will Fuller (groin) out, Hopkins in line to see limited work, and Watson expected to serve as a backup, AJ McCarron will direct an offense lacking in its usual firepower.

  • Browns' Odell Beckham Jr.: Likely in line to play

    Beckham (groin/illness), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Beckham's groin injury, which is believed to be a sports hernia, has been plaguing him for much of the season, but the issue hasn't impacted his availability for gameday. Instead, overcoming the illness seems to be Beckham's main concern as the 1 p.m. ET kickoff approaches, as the wideout was forced to miss Friday's practice due to food poisoning. Rapoport relays that Beckham's condition has improved over the past couple of days, leaving the Browns optimistic he'll be ready to go for the season finale. Beckham's status will be formally clarified when the Browns release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to kickoff.

  • Marquise Brown WR | PHI

    Ravens' Marquise Brown: Not expected to play Sunday

    Brown (illness), who is listed as questionable on the official injury report for Sunday's game against the Steelers, isn't expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Brown could probably play through the illness if necessary, but the Ravens won't take any chances with him in Week 17 with the team having already secured the AFC's No. 1 seed. Along with Brown, Mark Ingram (calf) and Mark Andrews (ankle) are on track to sit out after appearing on the injury report this week, while coach John Harbaugh previously mentioned that Lamar Jackson, Marshal Yanda, Earl Thomas and Brandon Williams would sit out for rest purposes.

  • Saints' Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Back with active roster

    Humphrey was promoted to the Saints' active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Humphrey suited up in four games for the Saints this season, playing 41 offensive snaps and being targeted just once. He'll line up as the team's No. 5 wide receiver for the season finale against the Panthers, and he could stick around for the playoff run.

  • Nsimba Webster WR | CHI

    Rams' Nsimba Webster: Back at practice Friday

    Webster (concussion) was a full participant at Friday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Webster looks prepared to suit up Sunday and will likely assume return duties for the Rams. Do not expect his impact to be felt in any other aspect of the game.

  • Brandon Powell WR | MIN

    Falcons' Brandon Powell: Ruled out Week 17

    Powell (wrist) was officially ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers.

    Powell popped up on the injury report Thursday and was downgraded to no practice time Friday. Powell finishes the season having failed to see the field for the Falcons in any contest during the year.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Titans' Corey Davis: Cleared to play Sunday

    Davis (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, Davis cleared the NFL's five-step protocol and was able to practice fully Thursday and Friday, setting the stage for him to play this weekend in what amounts to a win-and-get-in playoff scenario for the Titans. Though Davis has been overshadowed by fellow wideout A.J. Brown this season, he's still maintained a degree of PPR utility, compiling a 39-557-2 stat line through 14 contests.

  • Adam Humphries WR | HOU

    Titans' Adam Humphries: Won't play Sunday

    Humphries (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    With Humphries -- who last played in Week 13 -- still out, look for Tajae Sharpe see added work in three-receiver sets Sunday alongside A.J. Brown and Corey Davis.
