  • Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Cleared for Sunday

    Henderson has cleared concussion protocol and no longer has an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Henderson was initially listed as questionable for the contest after logging a full practice Friday. However, now that he's advanced through the NFL's concussion protocol, Henderson will be available to combine with fellow RB Rhamondre Stevenson in a game in which the Patriots' WR corps will be missing both Kayshon Boutte (concussion) and Mack Hollins (abdomen), who landed on IR on Saturday. In that context, Henderson figures to see enough touches to make a mark for fantasy managers in Week 17 after having been limited to 14 snaps in last weekend's win over the Ravens before exiting to be evaluated for a concussion.

  • Cody Schrader RB | DEN

    Cody Schrader: Back with Denver practice squad

    The Broncos signed Schrader to the practice squad Saturday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

    The Broncos claimed Schrader on Dec. 15 before waiving him Thursday. The running back has yet to play in a game for the team, but he will wait for a potential elevation opportunity. With RJ Harvey, Jaleel McLaughlin, and Tyler Badie all healthy and active, Schrader is not a likely candidate for elevation to the active roster next week.

  • Cam Akers RB | SEA

    Seahawks' Cam Akers: Elevated once again

    The Seahawks have elevated Akers from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

    Akers has played one prior game with the Seahawks, in Week 16 against the Rams. The running back did not have any offensive snaps in the contest and was relegated to a 12 percent special-teams snap share in the overtime victory. The 26-year-old will likely fill a similar role in this week's contest, filling a reserve role behind starting rushers Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet.

  • Kimani Vidal RB | LAC

    Chargers' Kimani Vidal: Inactive Saturday

    Vidal (neck) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Texans, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    Vidal was listed as a non-participant in practice both Tuesday and Wednesday before being estimated as limited on Thursday's report and questionable for Saturday's contest. With Vidal having been made inactive, added touches will be available for fellow RB Omarion Hampton, which boosts the 2025 first-rounder's Week 17 fantasy prospects, while Hassan Haskins and Jaret Patterson are available to mix in. Vidal's next chance to see game action will arrive in Week 18, when the Chargers travel to Denver for a game that may have major playoff seeding implications.

  • Bhayshul Tuten RB | JAC

    Jaguars' Bhayshul Tuten: Downgraded to out

    Tuten (finger) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Tuten was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, but he'll need to spend at least one more game on the sideline while continuing to recover from his right finger injury. With Tuten having logged a trio of limited practice sessions in preparation, however, there's reason to be optimistic about his chances of retaking the field in time to suit up for Jacksonville's regular-season finale against the Titans in Week 18.

  • Raiders' Raheem Mostert: Questionable for Week 17

    Mostert (ankle/knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Mostert was listed as a DNP for the first two practices of Week 17 prep due to ankle and knee injuries, but the veteran running back was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday to earn the questionable tag for Sunday's home game. If Mostert is unable to play, then Tre Tucker and Dylan Laube would be the main returners on kickoffs. Laube and Zamir White would also be in line for more rotational snaps out of the backfield behind Ashton Jeanty.

  • Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Questionable after full practice

    Henderson (concussion), who the Patriots list as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, was a full practice participant Friday, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

    Henderson, who left last Sunday's win over the Ravens in the second quarter after banging the back of his head on the ground while being tackled, practiced on a limited basis Wednesday while sporting a red (non-contact) jersey and remained listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate. On Friday, the running back shed his non-contact jersey, which suggests that he advanced further through the NFL's concussion protocol. In order to gain clearance to play this weekend, however, Henderson will need to be cleared by an independent neurological consultant, so unless the Patriots officially upgrade or downgrade him, fantasy managers may need to wait for confirmation of his Week 17 status until the team's inactives are posted ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Henderson ends up being ruled out, fellow RB Rhamondre Stevenson would be in line to pace New England's ground game against New York.

  • Tyler Goodson RB | IND

    Colts' Tyler Goodson: Questionable for Sunday

    Goodson (ankle) is questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    Goodson likely sustained his ankle injury against the 49ers during last Monday's loss, but the running back was able to upgrade to full participation in Friday's practice. The upgrade from non-participation to full is a great sign that the 25-year-old has recovered enough to suit up for Sunday's game. If Goodson is unable to play, DJ Giddens will likely share a few offensive snaps with Ameer Abdullah behind lead back Jonathan Taylor.

  • Alvin Kamara RB | NO

    Saints' Alvin Kamara: Out again in Week 17

    Kamara (knee/ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Tennessee, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Kamara thus will miss a fifth consecutive contest due to the sprained MCL that he suffered in Week 12 against the Falcons. His last chance to play again this season is a Week 18 visit to the Falcons, but the Saints have been out of the playoff picture for some time, so it'd be somewhat of a surprise if Kamara suits up for that contest.

  • Bhayshul Tuten RB | JAC

    Jaguars' Bhayshul Tuten: Officially questionable for Week 17

    Tuten (finger) has been deemed questionable to play against Indianapolis on Sunday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Tuten missed last Sunday's win over Denver due to a finger injury, but he was able to log a trio of limited practice sessions this week. That gives him a chance of suiting up Sunday, though his status may not be determined until Jacksonville releases its list of inactives approximately 90 minutes prior to the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Tuten can't play, LeQuint Allen and DeeJay Dallas would be the Jaguars' backfield options behind top tailback Travis Etienne.
