Little (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Little suffered a concussion during Jacksonville's Week 13 win over the Titans. He was unable to practice in any capacity, signaling he hasn't made much progress through the league's concussion protocol.

Jackson (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Jackson is still recovering from a serious knee injury that has sidelined him for each of the last two seasons. He's no longer on IR, so he can suit up any time, though he wasn't able to practice in any capacity this week.

Fant (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Fant hasn't spent any time on the injury report prior to this week, but he apparently suffered a knee injury during practice Thursday. He was unable to practice Friday and has now been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Minnesota.

Oliver (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Oliver has been dealing with the hamstring injury since training camp and was able to return to practice Monday. He officially logged three limited practices ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, but he will not be ready for his pro debut.

Tom (back) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Tom was a limited practice participant all week while managing a back issue that has plagued him all season. As has been the case every other week, he'll be ready to suit up and start at right tackle in a pivotal NFC North matchup.

Smith (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against Houston.

Smith was unable to practice all week due to high and low ankle sprains, and he appears to be trending toward missing a second consecutive game. With Jawaan Taylor (triceps) also listed as doubtful, Jaylon Moore and Wanya Morris are poised to serve as the Chiefs' starting offensive guards for Sunday's home tilt.

Mills (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Mills has been recovering from a torn ACL for his entire rookie season, though he was designated to return Nov. 26. He logged limited practices all week, setting him up for a potential return and pro debut in Week 15.

Taylor (triceps) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Taylor sustained a triceps injury during the Chiefs' Thanksgiving loss to the Cowboys. The injury prevented him from practicing all week, and if he's ultimately ruled out for Sunday's game, then Jaylon Moore would be the next man up at right tackle.

Bradford (elbow) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Bradford was forced out of Seattle's Week 13 matchup against the Vikings with an elbow injury. It wasn't considered serious at the time, and he logged two full practices as well as a limited session ahead of Sunday's game against Atlanta. Bradford will be ready to start at right guard.

Tuttle (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Tuttle was a full practice participant during Week 14 prep, but he won't be allowed to play Sunday unless he clears the league's concussion protocol. He has served in a rotational role along the Titans' defensive line and has accumulated 11 tackles (six solo) through 10 regular-season games.
