Ehlinger reverted to Denver's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Ehlinger was inactive as the Broncos' emergency QB3 for Sunday's loss to the Jaguars. Ehlinger hasn't played a single snap this season.

Badgley reverted to the Bills' practice squad Monday.

Badgley was brought up from the practice squad to serve as the Bills' kicker in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Browns after Matt Prater (quadriceps) was forced to miss his first game of the season. He made his lone field-goal attempt from 41 yards and went 2-for-3 on extra-point tries. If Prater is unable to progress enough in his recovery to play Week 17 against the Eagles, Badgley would likely be summoned from the practice squad once again.

Alexander reverted to Chicago's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

With Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden (ankle) inactive against the Packers, Alexander played one offensive snap but didn't produce anything in the box score. The 28-year-old hasn't drawn a regular-season target since 2022 with the Lions.

Blair reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Blair played nine of 77 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Cardinals but wasn't targeted in the passing game, as he operated as Atlanta's WR4 behind Darnell Mooney, Drake London and David Sills. Blair doesn't have a catch across two appearances this season.

Sims reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Sims was elevated to the Cardinals' active roster and made his 2025 regular-season debut during Sunday's loss to the Falcons. He played seven of 57 offensive snaps without recording a target, but he also played six snaps on special teams and returned two kickoffs for 55 yards. Sims is eligible to be elevated to the active roster twice more this season, and he could be brought up from the practice squad for Arizona's Week 17 tilt against Cincinnati on Sunday.

The Raiders placed Meredith (ankle) on injured reserve Monday.

Meredith has been battling the ankle injury most of the month of December and played just three snaps on special teams in Sunday's loss to the Texans. He'll now miss the final two weeks of the season after starting the first 11 games of the campaign at center.

Keys (ankle) was listed as a full participant on Monday's estimated practice report.

Keys was inactive for Sunday's win over the Giants but appears to be ready to return to the lineup following the one-game absence. The linebacker has logged 191 of his 199 snaps on special teams this season.

Bortolini is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Monday's game against the 49ers.

Bortolini sustained the injury during the Colts' first drive of the first quarter, and he is being evaluated by medical staff in the locker room to determine whether he can return to Monday's game. Danny Pinter has taken over at center in Bortolini's absence.

The Packers activated Oliver (hamstring) from the reserve/PUP list Monday.

The rookie fifth-round pick has fully recovered from a hamstring surgery, which he underwent in March prior to being drafted. He then had a setback in his recovery that forced him to begin the season on the PUP list, but Oliver has checked out fine since he resumed practicing earlier this month. Oliver could be on track to make his NFL debut Saturday against the Ravens, but he'll likely have a small role on defense if he suits up.

O'Neill (heel) was listed as DNP on Monday's estimated practice report.

O'Neill has dealt with the heel issue for the past week-plus but was cleared to play Sunday against the Giants and played all 61 offensive snaps in the win. Assuming he didn't suffer a setback, O'Neill will likely play Thursday against the Lions.
