Dulcich (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Dulcich last saw the field Week 3 against the Jets, and he'll be a healthy scratch for the eighth consecutive game Sunday. Adam Trautman, Nate Adkins and Lucas Krull once again will constitute the Broncos' tight-end depth chart versus Las Vegas, while Dulcich's next opportunity to return to the field will come in a Week 13 Monday night home matchup against the Browns on Dec. 2.

Sanders (head/neck) was carted off the field during Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Sanders went head over heels at the end of a 10-yard catch and run when he took a low hit on the left sideline, with his helmet taking the brunt of the fall. He was placed on a backboard before needing a cart to go to the locker room. An official diagnosis isn't yet known, but Sanders had three catches (on three targets) for 49 yards when he departed just before halftime.

Stoll (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

The Dolphins claimed Stoll off waivers from the Eagles on Nov. 13, but the tight end did not play an offensive snap in the team's 34-19 win over the Raiders last week. Stoll played on 194 offensive snaps in seven games for Philadelphia, catching two passes for 10 yards. The healthy tight end appears to remain behind Jonnu Smith, Julian Hill and Durham Smythe on Miami's depth chart.

Fant (groin) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, and a source tells Ian Rapoport of NFL Network that it will be a close call as to whether the tight end will be able to play.

Fant closed out Week 12 prep with a full practice, and while that's often a positive indicator that a player will suit up on game day, the tight end has missed the Seahawks' previous two games, which were sandwiched around a Week 10 bye. It's unclear if just one full practice will be enough for Fant to get the green light to play Sunday, and the Seahawks could be preparing for another absence after they elevated another tight end (Tyler Mabry) from the practice squad Saturday. Ultimately, a final word on Fant's status will come 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, when Seattle posts its inactive list. AJ Barner would likely serve as the Seahawks' primary option at tight end Sunday if Fant is unable to go.

The Seahawks elevated Mabry from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Mabry was waived from the Seahawks' active roster Monday, but he opted to stick around and signed with Seattle's practice squad Wednesday. Brady Russell (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, and Mabry could serve as the Seahawks' No. 3 tight end behind AJ Barner and Pharaoh Brown if Noah Fant (groin) is unable to play.

The Patriots elevated Westover from the practice squad Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Westover will slot in as the Patriots' No. 4 tight end going into Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Westover has yet to play a regular-season snap in his NFL career.

The Eagles elevated Uzomah from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Uzomah will serve as the Eagles' No. 3 tight end behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra for Sunday's game against the Rams. Uzomah was elevated for Week 11 against the Commanders and played three snaps on offense without recording a stat.

Muse (hand) was activated from injured reserve Saturday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bears.

Muse has missed the Vikings' last eight regular-season games after fracturing his hand in Week 2 against the 49es. He'll return Sunday, and with Josh Oliver (ankle) sidelined, Muse will serve as the Vikings' No. 3 tight end behind T.J. Hockenson and Johnny Mundt.

The Cowboys elevated Fant from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Fant will be elevated from the practice squad for a second straight week. In Week 11 against the Texans, Fant logged 22 snaps (five on offense, 17 on special teams) and failed to record a stat. He will serve as the Cowboys' No. 3 tight end behind Luke Schoonmaker and Brevyn Spann-Ford for Sunday's game against the Commanders due to Jake Ferguson (concussion) being ruled out.

Hurst (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's Week 12 contest against Baltimore.

Hurst first landed on the Chargers' injury report as a limited participant Friday, and he was unable to practice at all Saturday. Consequently, he'll miss Monday night's matchup against the Ravens. Will Dissly will continue to serve as Los Angeles' top pass-catching tight end, and Tucker Fisk could see more opportunities in Hurst's stead.
