Granson (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Giants.

Granson will miss a second consecutive game due to this injury, leaving Week 18 against the Texans as his last opportunity to make another appearance this season. Jelani Woods has led the Colts in receiving yards in both of the previous games that Granson sat out, so Woods figures to be the primary beneficiary of another Granson absence.

Tremble (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's road matchup against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Tremble practiced in full Friday after beginning the week with back-to-back limited sessions, which could bode well for his chances of being cleared for action Sunday. If the second-year pro is able to suit up versus Tampa Bay, he will once again stand to split reps with Ian Thomas.

Sullivan (ankle) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Sullivan was limited in Thursday's practice due to an ankle issue, but it looks like he's good to go for Sunday's divisional road game. The 26-year-old regularly handles a depth role on offense for the Panthers that has seen him record just two catches in 12 appearances this year.

Myarick was re-signed to the Giants' practice squad Friday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

After being waived Wednesday, Myarick will stay in New York, joining the Giants' practice unit Friday. The 27-year-old has appeared in all 15 of the Giants' games to this point this season, making him a likely candidate to get elevated to the active roster at some point down the stretch. Myarick has produced seven catches for 65 yards and a touchdown while splitting time between the offense and special teams this year.

Schultz secured seven of 10 targets for 56 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys' 27-13 win over the Titans on Thursday night.

The talented tight end took advantage of a defense that was already highly vulnerable to his position at full strength, and even more so with multiple starters sitting out Thursday. Schultz scored from six and 10 yards out in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, to record his second multi-touchdown tally of the campaign. Schultz, who crossed the 50-catch threshold for the third straight season with Thursday's production, will look to put together a strong finish to the regular season in the Week 18 road matchup versus the Commanders a week from Sunday.

Fant (knee) was limited in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The Seahawks appear to have rested a number of key skill-position players this week, with all of Fant, Tyler Lockett (hand) and Kenneth Walker (ankle) going from DNPs on Wednesday to some activity one day later. Fant himself sat out two sessions last week with his knee issue before getting in one limited practice to cap it, so he seems to be a step ahead this time around. Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not the tight end enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's matchup with the Jets.

Hurst (calf) was a full practice participant Thursday, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

The full session to open Week 17 prep sets the stage for Hurst to make his return to the lineup after missing the Bengals' last three games with the calf injury. Assuming he experiences no setbacks as the week rolls along, Hurst should reclaim his role as the Bengals' top tight end, sending Mitchell Wilcox back to the No. 2 spot on the depth chart in the process. In his 12 appearances on the season, Hurst has put together a 48-400-2 receiving line on 63 targets.

Otton (quadriceps) practiced fully Thursday, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Otton opened Week 17 prep with a limited session Wednesday due to a quad injury, but it didn't stop him from getting back to all activity one day later. He'll thus continue to serve as Tampa Bay's top receiving tight end Sunday versus the Panthers, which so far has resulted in a 39-369-2 line on 58 targets for the rookie fourth-round pick in 14 games this season.

Sullivan (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, per the team's official site.

After practicing without limitations Wednesday, Sullivan saw his reps capped during Thursday's session due to an ankle issue, ultimately putting his Week 17 availability in jeopardy. He'll have one more shot to ramp back up to full speed Friday, but Tommy Tremble (hip) would presumably be in line for an expanded backup role behind Ian Thomas on Sunday against the Buccaneers should the 26-year-old miss any time.

Parkinson should handle an increased workload moving forward following news that Will Dissly (knee) was placed on injured reserve, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Dissly could become available later in the playoffs if the Seahawks make it, but he won't return during the regular season. Last week, Parkinson handled a season-high 30 offensive snaps and produced three catches (four targets) for 45 yards. The 2020 fourth-round pick could handle an even larger workload in Week 17 versus the Jets as the No. 2 tight end behind Noah Fant (knee).
