Anderson (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Per Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site, Anderson dealt with some leg tightness Thursday, but his limitations at that time were portrayed as precautionary. With that in mind, we'd expect the wideout -- who's recorded four touchdowns over his last six outings -- to suit up this weekend, but his status will still be worth confirming prior to Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff.

Samuel (shoulder) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game at Seattle, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

It's not entirely clear if Samuel is battling the same shoulder injury that bothered him throughout November, but he looks like he'll be good to go for the battle for the NFC West crown, despite being limited to non-contact work in practice throughout the week, per Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. The rookie caught eight of 11 targets for 112 yards in his previous matchup with the Seahawks in Week 10, benefiting from extra volume after Emmanuel Sanders suffered a rib injury.

Turner (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Turner entered the concussion protocol after playing a career-high 51 percent of the Seahawks' offensive snaps in last week's 27-13 loss to the Cardinals. David Moore and Jaron Brown are the leading candidates to absorb the vacated snaps, but Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf and Jacob Hollister are far safer bets to draw targets.

Raymond (concussion) won't play in Sunday's season finale against the Texans, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Raymond didn't log any practice time throughout the week, suggesting he still resides in the league's mandated concussion protocol. With the undrafted product out of Holy Cross sidelined, Dion Lewis is expected to continue to handle kick-return duties.

Lazard (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Detroit, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Lazard was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, with no hint of serious concern about his Week 17 status. He's emerged from the pack as Green Bay's No. 2 wide receiver, playing 78 and 75 percent of offensive snaps the past two games, including a career-high nine targets in last week's 23-10 win over Minnesota. The role does come with a degree of upside, but Davante Adams and Aaron Jones are still the only reliable sources of volume in the Packers offense.

Arcega-Whiteside (foot) put in a full practice Friday.

Listed as a limited participant on the Eagles' practice reports Wednesday and Thursday, Arcega-Whiteside will be available for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Giants after closing out the week without any restrictions. With Nelson Agholor (knee) sidelined for yet another game, Greg Ward and Arcega-Whiteside will likely operate as the Eagles' top two wideouts, while Dallas Goedert steps in as the No. 1 tight end for the injured Zach Ertz (ribs/back).

Thomas (hand) has been cleared to play in Sunday's game at Carolina, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Thomas upgraded to full participation Friday after logging limited practices Wednesday and Thursday. He already broke the single-season record for receptions and now will add to his total with the Saints still battling for a first-round bye. Thomas caught 10 of 11 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown in his first matchup against the Panthers, a 34-31 Saints victory back in Week 12.

Hopkins (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans after not practicing Friday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Though coach Bill O'Brien has indicated that the Texans plan to play to win Sunday's contest, Houston would be unable to change its playoff seed if the Chiefs beat the Chargers. Considering Kansas City kicks off at 1 p.m. ET and the Texans don't play until 4:25 p.m. ET, O'Brien could choose to rest or limit key players like Hopkins, even if they aren't included among the team's inactives.

Agholor (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Agholor will unsurprising don street clothes for a fourth straight game after failing to take any reps during practice this week. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Agholor is still contending with considerable swelling in his knee, which may cloud his status for any postseason games that follow Week 17. With Agholor sidelined and Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (abdomen) on injured reserve, Greg Ward profiles as the Eagles' No. 1 wideout Sunday.

Chark (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Colts.

Chark didn't advance beyond limited participation in practice this week, but the Jaguars were apparently encouraged enough with how he looked to clear him for the finale. The second-year player will fill his usual role as Jacksonville's top target in an offense that could be missing multiple key skill-position players in Week 17. Quarterback Gardner Minshew (shoulder), running back Leonard Fournette (neck) and fellow wideout Dede Westbrook (neck/shoulder) are all listed as questionable.
