  • Zach Tom G | GB

    Packers' Zach Tom: Questionable for Week 18

    Tom (back/knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Tom was limited in practice all week due to knee and back injuries and has a chance to return Sunday from a two-game absence. Given that the Packers are locked in as the seventh seed in the NFC, the team could opt to sit Tom and give the fourth-year pro another week of rest before the wild-card round of the playoffs. If that were to be the case, then Jordan Morgan would likely draw the start at right tackle.

  • Nick Niemann LB | GB

    Packers' Nick Niemann: Staying on IR

    Niemann (pectoral) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Niemann was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and was a limited practice participant during Week 18 prep. However, the fifth-year pro has not progressed enough in his recovery to return from a pectoral injury that caused him to land on IR in early November. Niemann could be activated from IR ahead of the wild-card round of the NFC playoffs.

  • Charles Cross OT | SEA

    Seahawks' Charles Cross: Nearing return to action

    Coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that the Seahawks are optimistic Cross (hamstring) can return to action in the next one-to-two weeks, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

    Cross has been ruled out for Saturday night's game against the 49ers but could be eyeing a return to the field in the wild-card round if Seattle doesn't clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFC with a win over San Francisco. Josh Jones (ankle) is expected to make the start at left tackle Saturday.

  • Winston Reid LB | CLE

    Browns' Winston Reid: Out for Week 18

    Reid (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Reid was limited in practice all week but won't be activated from injured reserve in time for Sunday's regular-season finale. He'll end up missing the entire 2025 campaign after appearing in 16 contests last season.

  • Packers' Donovan Jennings: Won't play Week 18

    Jennings (throat) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Jennings popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a throat injury and was unable to practice over the final two days of Week 18 prep. He will not be available for Sunday's regular-season finale and will aim to return for the wild-card round of the NFC playoffs.

  • Aaron Banks G | GB

    Packers' Aaron Banks: Will play vs. Minnesota

    Banks (illness/ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Banks was limited in practice all week due to an ankle injury and illness. He's been given the green light to play and will start at left guard in Sunday's regular-season finale.

  • Brian O'Neill OT | MIN

    Vikings' Brian O'Neill: Good to go against Green Bay

    O'Neill (heel) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Packers.

  • T.J. Bass OT | DAL

    Cowboys' T.J. Bass: Out for Week 18

    Bass (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

  • Saints' Dillon Radunz: Questionable for Week 18

    Radunz (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Jeff Nowak of WWLAMFM reports.

    Radunz was a full participant in Friday's practice, giving him a chance to suit up for Sunday's regular-season finale. Radunz has started the last seven games at left guard for New Orleans.

  • Matt Lee C | CIN

    Bengals' Matt Lee: Ruled out for Week 18

    Lee (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns.
