  • Dareke Young WR | LV

    Seahawks' Dareke Young: Will not play Sunday

    Young (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.

    Young will miss his seventh straight game due to a quadriceps injury that landed him on injured reserve in early November. He was a full participant in practice both Wednesday and Thursday, but it appears the fourth-year pro will need at least another week before being activated off IR. Young will have another opportunity to return for Seattle's Week 16 matchup against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 18.

  • Woody Marks RB | HOU

    Texans' Woody Marks: Cleared to face Arizona

    Marks (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cardinals after practicing fully Friday.

    Marks sat out the Texans' first practice of the week Wednesday, but he upgraded to limited participation Thursday before taking every rep Friday. He'll be ready to play this weekend and could even end up taking on a larger share of the work out of the backfield if Nick Chubb (ribs) -- who is listed as questionable -- is out Sunday or available only in a limited capacity. After Chubb played just eight snaps before exiting the Texans' Week 14 win over the Chiefs, Marks went on to record a season-high 26 carries for 68 yards while adding two receptions (on three targets) for eight yards and a touchdown.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Avoids injury designation

    Reed (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Denver.

    Reed returned from an absence of nearly three months to take six touches for 53 yards in last week's 28-21 win over Chicago. His snap share (48 percent) and route share (65 percent) were in line with pre-injury norms, which is a good sign health-wise even if he's still not getting enough playing time to be reliable for fantasy.

  • Bobby Wagner MLB | WAS

    Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Good to go Sunday

    Wagner (knee) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Wagner did not participate in practice Wednesday or Thursday before returning as a full participant in Friday's session. The veteran is set to suit up as the defensive leader for Sunday's game. The starting middle linebacker has not missed a game this season and has played 100 percent of defensive snaps in all but one contest, a trend that will likely continue in Week 15.

  • De'Von Achane RB | MIA

    Dolphins' De'Von Achane: Another limited practice

    Achane (ribs) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Achane wore a red non-contact jersey at practice Friday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports, but he appeared to be running at full speed without signs of discomfort. Per Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post, the standout running back is testing forms of protective equipment he could use to guard his ribs during Monday's road matchup against the Steelers, while Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports that the Dolphins do expect Achane to be available Week 15. That said, after the impressive showing Jaylen Wright logged Week 14, Miami could opt to assign Achane less touches than his workhorse role usually entails, even if he's active. He'll have one final chance to handle contact reps at Saturday's practice.

  • Josh Jacobs RB | GB

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Questionable after limited practice

    Jacobs (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    It's the same knee injury that held Jacobs out for Week 12, with reports suggesting he was bothered by increased swelling in the aftermath of a Week 14 win over Chicago. He didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday but returned to limited participation Friday, setting up a potential game-day decision ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. Fellow Packers running back Emanuel Wilson becomes an attractive lineup option if Jacobs ends up inactive, having taken 28 carries for 107 yards and two TDs when Jacobs missed the Week 12 win over Minnesota.

  • Eric Saubert TE | SEA

    Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Questionable for Sunday

    Saubert (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Saubert was placed on injured reserve after suffering a calf injury in the Seahawks' Week 7 win over the Texans. The tight end has been working his way back and was able to log enough practice sessions in some capacity to be considered questionable for Sunday's matchup. If Saubert can suit up, he will likely slot in as the No. 2 tight end behind 2024 fourth-round pick AJ Barner.

  • Tory Horton WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Tory Horton: Likely to miss time beyond minimum

    Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that Horton (shin) recently underwent tests that should shine some light on his timeline to return, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Horton is eligible to return from injured reserve for Week 16, but Macdonald's comments sounded an awful lot like the coach-speak version of saying the rookie won't be ready soon. "It's still a process right now," said Macdonald. "We got some tests going on, not as we speak, but in the last day or two, and that'll be indicative of how fast we can accelerate everything."

  • Julian Love SAF | SEA

    Seahawks' Julian Love: Cleared for Sunday

    Love (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Colts, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Love played just 31 percent of defensive snaps in last Sunday's win over the Vikings, likely being eased back into the defense after a prolonged stint on injured reserve. The free safety should see an increased amount of defensive reps this week, likely taking more away from Ty Okada as the starter gets back in the mix.

  • Shelby Harris DE | NYG

    Browns' Shelby Harris: Ready to go Sunday

    Harris (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Harris is set to play against the Bears after upgrading to full participation in practice Friday. The 34-year-old will continue to start in place of Maliek Collins (quadriceps), who suffered a season-ending injury in Week 13 against the 49ers. The ninth-year veteran has 25 tackles (11 solo), including 0.5 sacks, and two pass breakups through 13 games this season.
