  • Colts' Anthony Richardson: Not practicing Thursday

    Richardson (back/foot) didn't participate in practice Thursday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    Richardson was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, so his absence from Thursday's session is notable as Sunday's game against the Giants approaches. If the QB is unavailable this weekend, Joe Flacco presumably would start in Richardson's place, backed up Sam Ehlinger.

  • Browns' Dorian Thompson-Robinson: Trending toward another start

    Browns offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey noted Thursday that the team is preparing as if Thompson-Robinson (calf) will start Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Thompson-Robinson was estimated as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice report, but at this stage he's trending toward a second straight start this weekend. Dorsey also noted the team still is in the process of determining whether Jameis Winston (shoulder) will be the No. 2 or No. 3 QB versus Miami, assuming Thompson-Robinson starts, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

  • Russell Wilson QB | NYG

    Steelers' Russell Wilson: Held in check in Week 17

    Wilson completed 23 of 37 passes for 205 yards and an interception in a 29-10 loss to Kansas City on Wednesday. He added 55 rushing yards and a touchdown on six carries.

    The veteran quarterback's one pick was costly, as it came in the end zone late in the first quarter as the Steelers tried to drive for their first points of the day. Wilson produced a one-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, but the Kansas City pass rush otherwise made his life miserable and sacked him five times. Wilson has failed to reach 220 passing yards in four straight games and has committed three turnovers against three touchdowns passes in the last three contests. Even with the Ravens having won Wednesday, the Steelers will still have a chance to claim the AFC North title if they can beat the Bengals -- and get some help -- in Week 18.

  • C.J. Stroud QB | HOU

    Texans' C.J. Stroud: Oversees inept offense in Week 17

    Stroud completed 17 of 31 pass attempts for 185 yards, no touchdowns and one interception while adding seven rushing yards on his only attempt in Wednesday's 31-2 loss to the Ravens.

    Stroud never seemed to settle in at any point during the Week 17 contest, missing a handful of short passes to open receivers that doomed several offensive drives. The sophomore quarterback was forced to miss one play at the end of the first half after losing feeling in his throwing arm following a sack, and while he returned to action for the next play, he wasn't able to get much going the rest of the game. The Texans have already locked up first place in a weak AFC South division, but Stroud and most of the team's key offensive starters are likely to play at least a couple drives in Week 18 against the Titans as the team looks to establish some momentum heading into the playoffs.

  • Lamar Jackson QB | BAL

    Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Sets all-time QB rushing record

    Jackson completed 10 of 15 passes for 168 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed four times for 87 yards and another score in Wednesday's 31-2 win over the Texans.

    Jackson's contributions through the air were modest thanks to Derrick Henry and the defense doing the heavy lifting. However, Jackson made the most of his sparse opportunities as a passer, connecting with Isaiah Likely (nine yards) and Mark Andrews (one yard) for his pair of touchdown passes and also recording a 48-yard rushing score. In the process, Jackson became the NFL's all-time leader in career rushing yards for a quarterback (6,110). Jackson and the offense appear to be peaking at the right time, considering Henry's production on the ground the last two games and Jackson's elite 27:2 TD:INT since Week 7.

  • Joe Burrow QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Burrow: Remains listed as limited

    Burrow (wrist/knee) was listed as a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

    Cincinnati has listed Burrow as limited on five straight injury reports, but he'll most likely approach Saturday's game against the Broncos without an injury designation. Wideout Tee Higgins (ankle/knee) was also listed as limited Tuesday and Wednesday, but could be cleared for Week 17 action along with Burrow when the Bengals release their final injury report of the week Thursday.

  • Browns' Dorian Thompson-Robinson: Estimated as limited Wednesday

    Thompson-Robinson (calf) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Fellow quarterback Jameis Winston (shoulder) -- who was the Browns' emergency No. 3 quarterback for this past weekend's loss to the Bengals -- was also a limited participant. The status of both signal-callers is thus worth monitoring as Sunday's game against the Dolphins approaches, though Thompson-Robinson is expected to start if he's able to move past the calf issue.

  • Tua Tagovailoa QB | MIA

    Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa: Estimated as limited Wednesday

    Tagovailoa (hip) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Tagovailoa was limited this past Wednesday and Thursday due to the same injury, but he was a full participant Friday and entered the Dolphins' Week 16 win over the 49ers without an injury designation. With no reported setbacks for the quarterback coming out of that game, Tagovailoa will likely upgrade to full participation in practice by the end of the week to clear up any concern about his status for Sunday's game against the Browns.

  • Josh Allen QB | BUF

    Bills' Josh Allen: Opens week as full participant

    Allen (elbow/shoulder) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.

    Allen's listing Wednesday's report would seem to pave the way for him to be available Sunday against the Jets. That said, the outcome of Wednesday's Ravens-Texans game could affect how the Bills handle their key starters this coming weekend, given that a Baltimore loss would lock Buffalo into the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs.

  • Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT

    Jets' Aaron Rodgers: Estimated as full practice participant

    Rodgers (knee) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Per Brian Costello of the New York Post, Rodgers said Tuesday that he was dealing with an MCL injury, but he planned to play Sunday against the Bills nonetheless. The quarterback's listing on Wednesday's practice report supports that notion, and barring any setbacks in practices Thursday and Friday, Rodgers should head into the weekend without an injury designation.
