George Kittle TE | SF
49ers' George Kittle: Ready to rock
Kittle (knee) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
He opened the week as a non-participant before returning to a limited practice Thursday and a full session Friday. With 332 yards and three touchdowns over the past two weeks, Kittle is doing his best to help the Niners make a wild-card push.

Cole Kmet TE | CHI
Bears' Cole Kmet: Back on field
Kmet (illness) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Kmet was one of eight Bears who didn't take part in Thursday's walk-through session on account of an illness. All but one of those players returned to the field Friday as full participants, temporarily alleviating some concern about a team-wide COVID-19 breakout. With that in mind, Kmet looks in line to fill his normal role as the Bears' starting tight end Monday against the Vikings.

Brevin Jordan TE | HOU
Texans' Brevin Jordan: Misses practice, listed as questionable
Jordan (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
After logging limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, the tight end -- who caught four of seven targets for 26 yards and a TD in a Week 14 loss to Seattle -- didn't practice Friday, so those inclined to roll the dice on Jordan in deeper fantasy formats will want to verify his status in advance of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. If he's out or limited this weekend, added looks would be available for the likes of Pharaoh Brown, Jordan Akins, and Antony Auclair.

Jimmy Graham TE | NO
Bears' Jimmy Graham: Remains limited in practice
Graham (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice.
Graham maintained his same level of activity from Thursday's walk-through session and may need to return to practice Saturday as a full participant to avoid carrying a designation into Monday's game against the Vikings. Since the Bears' Week 10 bye, Graham has been the clear No. 2 tight end behind Cole Kmet, playing no more than 30 percent of the offensive snaps in any of the team's last four contests.

Dominique Dafney TE | CAR
Packers' Dominique Dafney: Out Week 15
Dafney (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Dafney picked up the ankle injury during last week's win over the Bears and will be out for at least one game. Tyler Davis should serve as Green Bay's No. 3 tight end in Dafney's absence.

John Bates TE | WAS
Football Team's John Bates: Washington-Eagles moved to Tuesday
Bates and Washington will no longer play the Eagles on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.
Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Football Team will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster.

Ricky Seals-Jones TE | IND
Football Team's Ricky Seals-Jones: Washington-Eagles moved to Tuesday
Seals-Jones and Washington will no longer play the Eagles on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.
Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Football Team will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster.

Pharaoh Brown TE | IND
Texans' Pharaoh Brown: Set to play in Week 15
Brown (illness) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
The non-COVID illness that kept Brown from practicing Thursday was evidently minor, as he returned to full participation Friday, paving the way for Brown to suit up come Sunday. He plays the majority of snaps at tight end for the Texans, but Brown's in there for his blocking skills and is rarely thrown to.
