Cardinals WR Robbie Anderson is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Falcons with a back injury. His absence leaves Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch and A.J. Green as Arizona's top 3 WRs.
Update: Anderson has been ruled out.
Colts QB Nick Foles is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Giants with a rib injury. He was in a lot of pain and had to be carted back to the locker room. We'll update his status when we know more. With QB Matt Ryan inactive, QB Sam Ehlinger will replace Foles.
Update: Foles has been ruled out.
Broncos RB Marlon Mack hurt his hamstring in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs and is questionable to return. His absence leaves Denver's backfield to Latavius Murray and Chase Edmonds.
Eagles EDGE Josh Sweat suffered a scary head/neck injury in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game against the Saints. Trainers strapped him to a board and took him off the field on a cart. Sweat did slightly raise a thumb up before reaching the tunnel. We'll watch for updates on his condition. He's obviously out for the rest of Week 17.
The Ravens are being "extra cautious" in continuing to hold QB Lamar Jackson out with his knee injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The team does expect Jackson back at least for the start of the playoffs, Rapoport adds. We'll continue to monitor Jackson's progress.
Bucs TE Cameron Brate is a healthy scratch for today's game vs. the Panthers. It's not a major surprise after the 31-year-old played just 8 snaps last week. Brate's absence is a slight boost to TE Cade Otton's fantasy stock. TEs Kyle Rudolph and Ko Kieft are also active for Tampa.
Commanders S Kamren Curl (ankle) is inactive for today's game against the Browns. CB Benjamin St-Juste (ankle) is also out, leaving the secondary without 2 of its top 5 players.
Buccaneers S Antoine Winfield Jr. (ankle), S Mike Edwards (hamstring) and CB Jamel Dean (toe) are active for today's game against the Panthers. Each entered the day questionable. The secondary will miss lead corner Carlton Davis, who was doubtful to play.
Saints CB Marshon Lattimore is active for today's game against the Eagles. It will be his 1st game action since Week 5 internal injuries that included a lacerated kidney. It's tough to know how effective he'll be, but New Orleans has clearly been cautious with the veteran. And he carried no game status on the final injury report of the week, despite remaining limited in practice. The long layoff will likely lessen any hesitation the Eagles might have about challenging Lattimore in coverage, which would help his target count. Lattimore will be a risk-reward play in IDP lineups for Week 17.
Saints LB Pete Werner (hamstring) is active for today's game against the Eagles. He sports some re-injury risk after leaving his last game early, missing last week and remaining limited in practice all week. But he also carries significant tackle upside whenever on the field. We've got Werner modestly projected in our Week 17 IDP rankings. Philadelphia has been a worse scoring matchup for LBs than you'd probably expect for such a run-favoring offense.
Giants EDGE Azeez Ojulari (ankle) and S Xavier McKinney (hand) are active for today's game against the Colts. Both carry IDP upside against a struggling offense. McKinney sits higher in our Week 17 IDP rankings, at their respective positions.
Dolphins EDGE Bradley Chute (ankle, hand) and CB Xavien Howard (knee) are inactive for today's game against the Patriots.
Bills S Jordan Poyer (knee) is questionable for Monday night's game against the Bengals. He missed practice Thursday and Friday before returning for a limited Saturday workout. The late kick makes Poyer tough to wait for in IDP lineups. If you plan to wait for Poyer and can't back him up with either Bengals safety or Bills S Damar Hamlin, Jaquan Johnson would be Poyer's fill-in.
Buccaneers WR Julio Jones (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Panthers. He played behind Chris Godwin, Mike Evans and Russell Gage last week. Jones isn’t a viable Week 17 fantasy play.
Texans RB Dare Ogunbowale (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Jaguars. He should continue mixing in behind lead back Royce Freeman.
Bengals DL Sam Hubbard (calf) is questionable for Monday night's game against the Bills. He remained limited in practice all week after missing last Saturday's game. Hubbard might be worth a shot if his game weren't the last of the weekend. As it is, it will be difficult to wait for him in IDP lineups -- especially without knowing whether an active Hubbard might see a more limited role than usual. Try to avoid him.
Bears WR Chase Claypool (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Lions. He’s not a recommended fantasy play, but his return is good news for QB Justin Fields. WR Dante Pettis (ankle) is also active.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (toe) is active for today’s game vs. the Texans. He’s been playing – and playing well – through this toe injury for a few weeks. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported this morning that the Jags won’t be resting starters in this one. Lawrence is safe to get into Week 17 fantasy lineups.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts (right shoulder) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Saints. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported this morning that Hurts is expected to be available for Week 18, although whether and how much he plays in that one will depend on whether the Eagles lock up the NFC’s #1 seed with a win today. QB Gardner Minshew gets another start.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Dolphins. We’re not worried about the ankle, but RB Damien Harris’ return is at least a slight ding to Stevenson’s fantasy value. RB Kevin Harris is a healthy scratch today.
