| 12/12/2025 6:18:00 PM | Crosby (knee) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles. |
| Crosby upgraded his practice participation throughout the week, culminating in a full practice Friday that cleared him of any injury designation for Sunday's game. The premier pass rusher has not missed a game all season, and that will not stop in Week 15, when the 28-year-old will likely log his fourth straight game of a 100 percent defensive snap share. | |
| 12/12/2025 4:56:00 PM | 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. | |
| 12/12/2025 4:29:00 PM | Hall (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Jacksonville, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. |
| Hall kicked off this week with no practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, but he progressed from limited Thursday to all activity Friday, clearing him to continue to lead the Jets backfield this weekend. Since the team's Week 9 bye, he's racked up 93 touches for 427 yards from scrimmage and two total TDs over the last five contests. With undrafted rookie QB Brady Cook set to start Sunday with Tyrod Taylor (groin) and Justin Fields (knee) unavailable, Hall could take on even more of the onus of New York's offense. | |
| 12/12/2025 2:35:00 PM | Hockenson (shin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. |
| Hockenson missed Wednesday's practice but returned to limited participation Thursday. He's apparently fine to play this week, after catching two of three targets for 12 yards and a TD in the 31-0 blowout of Washington last Sunday. | |
| 12/12/2025 1:51:00 PM | Daniels (elbow) has not been cleared for contract, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports. |
| An earlier report said Daniels was cleared for contact despite already being ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Giants. It turns out that was just a typo or transcription error, with Commanders head coach Dan Quinn having actually said the opposite. Still, Quinn didn't rule Daniels out beyond Week 15 and once again suggested that the QB won't be shut down for the year unless he's truly unable to play. In any case, Marcus Mariota will start against the Giants on Sunday. | |
| 12/12/2025 1:06:00 PM | Sampson (calf/hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. |
| Sampson will miss his first game of the season while managing a pair of injuries. His next chance to take the field will come Week 16 against the Bills. As long as Sampson is sidelined, Cleveland's main depth options behind top RB Quinshon Judkins will be Raheim Sanders and Trayveon Williams. | |
| 12/12/2025 9:15:00 AM | Lamb cleared concussion protocol Friday and will be available to play Sunday against the Vikings, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. |
| After sustaining the concussion in last Thursday's loss to the Lions, Lamb made rapid progress through the five-step protocol. He took the field for the Cowboys' first Week 15 practice Wednesday as a limited participant, then took another step forward Thursday, when he upgraded to full participation. Lamb has since been removed from the protocol after being cleared by an independent neurologist, setting the stage for him to handle his typical role Sunday. Since returning to action Week 7 following a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, Lamb is averaging 5.9 catches for 91.9 receiving yards and has scored three touchdowns over a stretch of seven contests. | |
| 12/11/2025 11:46:00 PM | McLaughlin made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Thursday's Week 15 loss to Atlanta. |
| McLaughlin got called upon twice for field-goal tries in the second quarter, converting from 49 and 52 yards out. It was his third straight game making two field goals, and McLaughlin hasn't missed a kick since Week 6 against San Francisco. He's been very accurate overall this season, going 26-for-30 on FG attempts and 27-of-28 on PATs through 14 contests. | |
| 12/10/2025 3:08:00 PM | Branch (Achilles) has a recovery timetable of eight to 12 months after undergoing a successful surgery to address the torn Achilles he suffered Dec. 4 against the Cowboys, coach Dan Campbell said Wednesday, Justin Rogers of Detroit Football Network reports. |
| Branch has a high likelihood of missing at least some of the 2026 season due to this injury. Daniel Thomas likely will assume the starting strong safety role for the remainder of the 2025 season in Branch's absence. | |
| 12/10/2025 12:42:00 PM | Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Wednesday that Mariota will start Sunday's game against the Giants and that Jayden Daniels (elbow) is ruled out. |
| Mariota started in place of an injured Daniels from Week 8 to Week 13, a five-game stretch in which he averaged 186.6 passing yards and 30.8 rushing yards per contest, totaling six touchdowns and four interceptions. Daniels' return to action versus the Vikings in Week 14 was brief, as he was forced out in the third quarter due to an elbow injury. Entering in relief, Mariota completed two of four passes for 30 yards and an INT versus Minnesota while also rushing twice for seven yards and losing one fumble. While Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Daniels' current elbow injury is not a long-term concern and that he's suffered no structural setbacks, it's entirely possible Washington could opt to prioritize the franchise signal-caller's health and start Mariota under center for the remainder of the 2025 campaign. | |
| 12/9/2025 10:23:00 PM | Queen registered seven tackles (five solo) during the Steelers' 27-22 win over the Ravens on Sunday. |
| Queen was cleared to play after working through a glute injury during Week 14 prep. The injury didn't appear to bother him Sunday, as he played 74 of 80 defensive snaps (92.5 percent) and finished tied with Alex Highsmith for the second-most tackles on the Steelers behind Cole Holcomb (nine). Queen is up to 96 combined tackles through 13 regular-season games and should crack the 100-plus tackle mark for the fifth time in his NFL career (and for the fourth consecutive season). His next opportunity to reach that milestone is this Sunday against the Dolphins. | |
| 12/9/2025 9:46:00 PM | Singleton posted eight tackles (one solo) during the Broncos' 24-17 win over the Raiders on Sunday. |
| Singleton played 49 of 50 defensive snaps (98 percent) and finished Sunday's game as the Broncos' leading tackler. He has logged at least eight tackles in eight of 12 regular-season games and is up to 103 combined tackles on the year, which marks the fifth time he has reached the tackling century mark in his NFL career. | |
| 12/9/2025 9:13:00 PM | James recorded three tackles (three solo) during Monday's 22-19 win versus the Eagles. |
| As has been the case for much of the year, James' contributions were felt more in coverage than on the stat sheet in Week 14, and quarterback Jalen Hurts finished the contest with four interceptions. He figures to spend plenty more time in coverage in a Week 15 matchup at Kansas City. | |
| 12/9/2025 8:12:00 PM | Garrett recorded four tackles (all solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a defensed pass in Sunday's Week 15 loss to Tennessee. |
| Garrett's sack came on a nine-yard takedown of Cam Ward late in the second quarter. That put Garrett in the history books as the 13th NFL player since sacks became an official stat to reach the 20-sack mark in a regular season. With four games remaining in the campaign, the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year has an excellent chance of reaching and surpassing the all-time NFL single-season record of 22.5 sacks, which was established by Michael Strahan in 2001 and matched by T.J. Watt in 2021. Garrett has been unstoppable of late, racking up at least one sack in seven straight games and totaling a jaw-dropping 16.0 sacks during that span. | |
| 12/8/2025 7:49:00 PM | Croskey-Merritt rushed the ball seven times for 32 yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Vikings. |
| Croskey-Merritt was once again uninspiring in Week 14, playing 10 snaps on offense, which was 12 fewer than fellow running back Chris Rodriguez (22). Croskey-Merritt has now gone eight straight games without reaching the end zone, and he hasn't crossed 40 yards on the ground since Week 6. With Washington's season going sideways and Rodriguez getting the majority of the workload in the backfield, Croskey-Merritt is an unappealing fantasy option at the moment. | |
| 12/8/2025 2:13:00 AM | Moore recorded one reception on three targets for minus-4 yards in Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Packers. |
| Targets were expected to condense around Moore and Luther Burden with Rome Odunze (foot) sidelined, but Moore was completely uninvolved. His three targets matched his season low, while his only catch came late in the second quarter. Moore now has under 20 receiving yards in four of Chicago's last five games. | |
| 12/7/2025 9:16:00 PM | Little connected on both field-goal tries and all four extra-point attempts in Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts. |
| Little's field goals came from 35 and 48 yards, respectively. The kicker has not missed since Week 7, a streak that coincides with his team's 5-1 stretch over the last six games. During that run, Little has made multiple field goals in four games and at least two extra points in every game. | |
| 12/7/2025 9:13:00 PM | Etienne rushed the ball 20 times for 74 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts. He added one reception on one target for eight yards. |
| While he was helped by a brief Bhayshul Tuten absence, Etienne dominated the work out of Jacksonville's backfield and topped 20 carries for only the second time this season. He was very efficient with his work in the first half, scoring twice from three and 28 yards away while also turning in an additional long run of 11 yards. Etienne lost much of that efficiency in the second half as Jacksonville was running out the clock, but he still managed to top 70 rushing yards for the fourth time in his last six games. | |
| 12/7/2025 4:46:00 PM | Burrow completed 25 of 36 passes for 284 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions in the Bengals' 39-34 loss to the Bills on Sunday. |
| Burrow was victimized by a pair of line-of-scrimmage interceptions on back-to-back plays in the fourth quarter, which ultimately turned the tide of the game. The Bills' Christian Benford made a stellar leaping grab of an attempted screen pass on the first pick, while A.J. Epenesa got ahold of a deflected throw in the second instance. Otherwise, Burrow's second game back after a long layoff saw the 2020 first-round pick thrive despite snowy conditions, connecting on a season-high four touchdown passes to Tee Higgins (21, 25 yards), Chase Brown (10 yards ) and Mike Gesicki (12 yards). Burrow will next face off with the same Ravens squad he upended in his Thanksgiving Night return when Baltimore pays a visit for a Week 15 matchup next Sunday. | |
| 12/7/2025 11:40:00 AM | Browning (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills but will serve as the Bengals' emergency third quarterback. |
| Browning will serve as the Bengals' emergency QB3 behind Joe Burrow and Joe Flacco for a second consecutive game. As such, Browning is prohibited from seeing the field Sunday unless both Burrow and Flacco leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection. | |
| 12/1/2025 11:04:00 PM | David compiled six total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Cardinals. |
| David was fourth on the team in takedowns in Week 13, securing at least six stops for the second straight game and seventh time in his last eight contests overall. The 35-year-old is now just 16 tackles short of posting his 12th campaign with 100-plus takedowns. | |
| 11/26/2025 3:13:00 PM | With Joe Burrow (toe) having been activated off IR, Flacco is in line to to work as the Bengals' No. 2 QB in Thursday's game against the Ravens. |
| After arriving via a trade with the Browns in October, the veteran QB drew six starts for the Bengals, who went 1-5 in that span. With Burrow back in the starting lineup, Flacco is worth rostering only by those in deeper fantasy leagues or by Burrow managers who have the flexibility/bench space to keep his backup on hand. | |
| 11/21/2025 12:04:00 PM | LaPorta (back) has undergone surgery, and head coach Dan Campbell described LaPorta's chances of returning this season as "very, very slim" Friday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports. |
| LaPorta was placed on injured reserve Nov. 15. His earliest possible return date is Dec. 14, but Campbell's update suggests LaPorta will be out well beyond that point, most likely missing the remainder of the season. Campbell didn't completely shut the door on LaPorta returning, so the star tight end might make it back if the Lions put together a deep playoff run. Brock Wright and Ross Dwelley are the two remaining healthy options at the position on the active roster. | |
| 11/14/2025 3:58:00 PM | Karlaftis (thumb) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos. |
| The Purdue product upgraded from limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday to a full go Friday, indicating that he's moved past his thumb injury in time to play in the Week 11 divisional matchup. Now fully healthy, expect Karlaftis to operate as one of Kansas City's top defensive linemen Sunday. | |
| 9/23/2025 4:25:00 PM | The Cardinals placed Conner (foot) on injured reserve Tuesday. |
| It's merely a procedural move, as Conner has already been ruled out for the season after he was injured in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. Conner's season is cut short after rushing 32 times for 95 yards and one touchdown. He added eight catches for 38 yards and an additional score as a receiver. With Conner done for the year, the Cardinals are set to roll with Trey Benson as their No. 1 RB, with Emari Demercado as depth in the backfield. | |
