  • Titans' Chig Okonkwo: Suiting up for Week 13

    Okonkwo (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    Okonkwo has been on the injury report with a foot issue for the past month, but he's rarely entered the weekend with an injury designation. While he was listed as questionable to suit up, Okonkwo is in line to play against Jacksonville. While Gunnar Helm has started to earn more targets, Okonkwo has still been on the field for at least 60 percent of offensive snaps in five consecutive contests.

  • Darren Waller TE | MIA

    Dolphins' Darren Waller: Active versus New Orleans

    Waller (pectoral) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Saints.

    Waller, who last saw game action in Week 7, had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday and then logged three straight limited practices before being listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. The tight end was subsequently activated from IR on Saturday, setting the stage for his return to action versus New Orleans. Prior to being sidelined, Waller caught 10 passes (on 12 targets) for 117 yards and four touchdowns in four games, and now that he's back in the mix, he'll join WRs Jaylen Waddle and Malik Washington along with RB De'Von Achane as one of the Dolphins' top options in the passing game, a context that makes him worthy of roster/lineup consideration for those in need of TE help in Week 13 and beyond.

  • Tyler Warren TE | IND

    Colts' Tyler Warren: Active versus Texans

    Warren (illness) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Warren wasn't on the Colts' injury report as of Friday, but the tight end was added to it Saturday and deemed questionable for Sunday's contest due to an illness that Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports was a stomach virus. With his active status versus Houston confirmed, Warren should continue to maintain his prominent role in the Colts' passing offense in Week 13. Through 11 games, the 2025 first-rounder has put up a fantasy-friendly 55/662/3 receiving line on 74 targets.

  • Tyler Warren TE | IND

    Colts' Tyler Warren: On track to be available Sunday

    Warren (illness) is in line to play Sunday against the Texans, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Pelissero previously noted that Warren was trending toward being available, with the tight end's Week 13 status set to be officially confirmed when the Colts' inactives are posted ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET contest.

  • Tyler Warren TE | IND

    Colts' Tyler Warren: Trending toward playing Sunday

    Warren (illness) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, but the Colts have "cautious optimism" that the tight end will play, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Warren didn't miss any practice time during Week 13 prep before he was surprisingly added to the injury report Saturday due to the illness, which Pelissero relays is a stomach issue. The standout rookie was re-evaluated earlier Sunday, and while the Colts haven't provided an update on his status, he appears to have made enough progress overnight to put himself on a path to play. Official word on Warren's availability will be made when the Colts release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Titans' Chig Okonkwo: In line to play Sunday

    Okonkwo (foot), who is officially questionable for Sunday's game against Jacksonville, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Okonkwo has been dealing with a foot issue since late October, but it hasn't yet caused him to miss any games. He appears likely to suit up again in Week 13, despite sitting out Thursday's practice and being limited in two others. Okonkwo and fellow tight end Gunnar Helm have logged near-identical offensive snap counts each of the past two weeks, so it wouldn't be surprising for that trend to continue Sunday.

  • Noah Fant TE | CIN

    Bengals' Noah Fant: Minimal impact again

    Fant had one catch for three yards on two targets in Thursday night's win over the Ravens.

    Fant at least played more snaps, 33 compared to 18 the week before, but wasn't a big part of the passing game. With Mike Gesicki healthy again, Fant's already modest level of production is incredibly unstable.

  • Mike Gesicki TE | CIN

    Bengals' Mike Gesicki: Diminished playing time

    Gesicki had two catches for 19 yards on four targets in Thursday night's win over the Ravens. He played only 23 offensive snaps (29 percent), down from 28 the week before against New England.

    While the game flow was considerably different than against the Pats in Week 12, there was still plenty of passing volume to go around, with Joe Burrow throwing 46 passes. Gesicki has yet to score in the eight games in which he's played this year.

  • Tanner Hudson TE | CIN

    Bengals' Tanner Hudson: Catches highlight-reel touchdown

    Hudson had just one catch for 14 yards in Thursday night's win over the Ravens, but it was a spectacular one-handed grab in the corner of the end zone to help the Bengals stretch their lead to two scores.

    Joe Burrow led Hudson perfectly to the corner, after Hudson had beaten the Ravens' Kyle Hamilton. However, Hudson played just six offensive snaps in the game as the Bengals' third tight end, with Mike Gesicki back in the rotation.

  • Pharaoh Brown TE | ARI

    Cardinals' Pharaoh Brown: Elevated for Week 13

    The Cardinals elevated Brown from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

    Brown will join the Cardinals' active roster for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. He has reached his limit of practice squad elevations for the season, meaning he would have to be signed to the active roster in order to continue to play for Arizona. Brown contributed on both offense and special teams in Weeks 11 and 12 and has logged one tackle for the season.
