Sione Vaki RB | DET
Lions' Sione Vaki: Estimated as limited
Vaki (ankle) was limited on Monday's estimated practice report.
Seemingly injured for most of the season, Vaki has dealt with hamstring, groin and ankle issues in 2025 and has appeared in just five games. He's logged a total of one offensive snap and 82 on special teams, rushing one time for four yards while returning a pair of kickoffs for 39 yards.

Jacob Saylors RB | DET
Lions' Jacob Saylors: Limited Monday
Saylors (back) was limited on Monday's estimated practice report.
Saylors has been dealing with a back issue for most of November. He's logged a total of six offensive snaps all season but is a fixture on special teams for the Lions. Saylors has returned 26 kickoffs for 699 scoreless yards while producing six tackles (four solo).

Quay Walker LB | GB
Packers' Quay Walker: Listed as limited Monday
Walker (neck) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Walker was unable to practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for Week 12, so although Green Bay didn't actually host a practice Monday, it's encouraging to see him listed as a limited participant. The starting linebacker will have two more chances to ramp up his activity at practice prior to Thursday's divisional clash with the Lions.

Brian Branch SAF | DET
Lions' Brian Branch: Estimated as limited Monday
Branch (toe) was limited on Monday's estimated practice report.
Branch dealt with some toe issues in practice last week but ultimately played all 82 defensive snaps in Sunday's overtime win over the Giants. He should be fine for Thursday's Thanksgiving bout with the Packers.

K.J. Osborn WR | ATL
K.J. Osborn: Joins Atlanta's practice squad
The Falcons signed Osborn to the practice squad Monday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Osborn spent time with the Commanders during the offseason, but he wasn't able to earn a spot on the team's initial 53-man roster. Now, he'll provide Atlanta with emergency depth at wide receiver while star wideout Drake London (knee) works his way back from a PCL sprain.

Christopher Brooks RB | GB
Packers' Chris Brooks: Racks up nine touches
Brooks had eight carries for 21 yards and one reception for five yards in Sunday's 23-6 victory over the Vikings.
The nine touches were the most Brooks has recorded in a game since joining the Packers in 2024, but they came in a contest in which starter Josh Jacobs (knee) sat out and fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson touched the ball a whopping 30 times. Brooks could again be busier than usual if Jacobs is unable to play Thursday against the Lions, but in such a scenario he would still be the No. 2 option behind Wilson.
-
Terrion Arnold CB | DET
Lions' Terrion Arnold: Estimated as limited Monday
Arnold (concussion) was listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report.
Arnold has missed back-to-back games after he was concussed in Week 10, and he apparently remains in the league's protocol after logging a trio of DNPs last week ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants. With a quick turnaround ahead of Thursday afternoon's Week 13 date with the Packers, Arnold could be in danger of missing a third consecutive contest.
-
Kerby Joseph SAF | DET
Lions' Kerby Joseph: Estimated as DNP on Monday
Joseph (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report.
Detroit held a walkthrough Monday after beating the Giants in overtime Sunday. The Lions have a quick turnaround ahead of a Thursday afternoon meeting with the Packers on Thanksgiving. Joseph hasn't played since Week 6 against the Chiefs.

Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN
Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Suspension lifted
The NFL lifted Chase's one-game suspension Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Chase received the suspension for his role in an incident with Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey in Week 11, resulting in the wideout sitting out Sunday's loss to the Patriots. Though Chase technically has a roster exemption after the ban was lifted, he'll almost certainly be available for Thursday's road matchup with the Ravens, when the Bengals are expected to have No. 1 quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) back in the lineup.
-
Noah Fant TE | CIN
Bengals' Noah Fant: Volume declines with Gesicki back
Fant secured his only target for nine yards during Cincinnati's 26-20 loss to the Patriots in Week 12.
Fant saw his offensive snap share drop to just 27 percent versus New England, a decline in usage that coincides with the return of Mike Gesicki (four catches for 35 yards on six targets) from IR. Now back in a familiar role as the No. 2 tight end in Cincinnati, Fant can safely be dropped in the majority of fantasy formats, even if quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) manages to be back in the starting lineup Thursday night versus the Ravens.
