McNeill (abdomen) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.

McNeill was unable to practice at all this week due to the abdominal injury he sustained in the Christmas Day loss to the Vikings. Tyleik Williams and Roy Lopez are likely in line for an increased snap share on the defensive line in the starting defensive tackle's absence. McNeill will end his 2025 campaign with 14 tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defensed over 10 games.

Mostert (knee/ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Paul Gutierrez of the Raiders' official site reports.

Mostert produced a FP/DNP/LP practice log for Week 18 prep while managing knee and ankle injuries, and his status for Sunday's game may not be officially known until the Raiders announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Dylan Laube would serve as the Raiders' main returner on kickoffs and join Zamir White as the rotational backfield options behind Ashton Jeanty if Mostert is not cleared to play.

Harper (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.

Harper upgraded to a limited participant in Thursday's practice but will be unable to make the jump to full participation and clear the league's concussion protocol in time for Sunday's divisional showdown. With Jalen Mills likely set to start at free safety for the Lions in Sunday's contest, Harper ends the season with 37 tackles (26 solo) and five passes defensed, including one interception, over 12 games.

Stephens (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Stephens popped up on Thursday's injury report as a limited practice participant due to a neck issue. He was given the questionable tag for Sunday's regular-season finale despite not practicing Friday, and his status may not be officially known until the Jets announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Qwan'tez Stiggers (knee) has already been ruled out, so Tre Brown and Keidron Smith could be the Jets' two starting outside cornerbacks if Stephens also doesn't play.

Anzalone (concussion/personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.

Anzalone was able to upgrade to a limited participant Thursday before once again downgrading to a non-participant in Friday's practice, as a personal status was also added to the report. Malcolm Rodriguez and Grant Stuard will likely see an increased snap share at outside linebacker in the starter's absence. Between the linebacker experiencing private troubles, working his way back from the concussion, and the Lions being eliminated from playoff contention, it seems the team determined it best to end the 31-year-old's season a game early. Anzalone finishes the 2025 campaign with 95 tackles (52 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and nine passes defensed (including one interception) over 16 games.

Garrett (hip) doesn't carry a designation into Sunday's game against the Bengals, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Garrett ended Week 18 prep with back-to-back limited practices, which was enough for him to fade an injury tag for Sunday's regular-season finale. The veteran pass rusher sits at 22.0 sacks through 16 regular-season games and is one sack shy from surpassing Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt for the NFL's single-season record.

Revel (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Revel was unable to practice all week due to the concussion he sustained in the Christmas Day win over the Commanders. After getting a late start to his rookie campaign due to an ACL tear he suffered in college, the cornerback will end the regular season with 35 tackles (23 solo) and three passes defensed over seven games. With Trevon Diggs recently waived by the Cowboys, the team will likely start Reddy Steward at outside cornerback opposite Caelen Carson and move Markquese Bell or Alijah Clark to slot cornerback for Sunday's game.

Williams (foot/illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Williams missed the final two practices of Week 18 prep due to a foot injury and an illness. The rookie third-rounder will end up missing the last two games of the regular season and will aim to be available for the wild-card round of the playoffs. If the Packers end up resting or limiting top wide receivers during Sunday's regular-season finale, then fellow rookie Matthew Golden and Bo Melton would be in line for more opportunities on offense, though they'll be catching passes from Clayton Tune rather than Jordan Love.

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

Van Ness managed to fade an injury tag for Week 18 despite being limited in practice all week by a foot injury and illness. However, the Packers are locked in as the NFC's seventh seed, so he could operate on a snap count or be held out of Sunday's regular-season finale entirely. If Van Ness's snaps are limited, then Arron Mosby, Brenton Cox and Barryn Sorrell would be in line for more snaps on defense.

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

Cooper was limited in the first two practices of Week 18 prep due to a shoulder issue, but the second-year pro faded an injury designation for Sunday's regular-season finale after practicing in full Friday. Given that the Packers are locked in as the seventh seed in the NFC, Cooper and the rest of the starters could operate on a snap count as Green Bay prepares itself for the postseason.
