Everett (groin) was added to Saturday's injury report and is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Chiefs.

Everett failed to make it through the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the 49ers after sustaining a groin injury. The veteran tight practiced all week and was eventually cleared of the injury report, so Saturday's designation should be concerning for fantasy managers. The Chargers also activated undrafted rookie tight end Stone Smartt (undisclosed) off the NFI list, another move that could spell Everett's absence. If Everett is unable to play, Tre' McKitty or Richard Rodgers would likely see the majority of the pass-catching reps.

Kalinic was elevated to the active roster Saturday.

Kalinic was called up to the active roster for the second straight week, as rookie tight end Jelani Woods (shoulder) will be out once again. Kalinic will serve as the third-string tight end behind Kylen Granson and Mo Alie-Cox, and he should expect most of his playing time to come on special teams.

Everett (groin) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest against the Chiefs.

Everett departed the Chargers' Week 10 loss at San Francisco in the second quarter due to a groin injury, which resulted in limited practices both Wednesday and Thursday. That said, he was able to handle every rep to round out Week 11 prep, clearing him to suit up as L.A.'s top tight end this weekend. Even with Keenan Allen (hamstring) out for most of the season and Mike Williams (ankle) sidelined the last two games, Everett hasn't made much noise on his way to a cumulative 34-364-2 line on 55 targets in nine appearances. There's a chance both Allen and Williams return Sunday, which could leave even fewer looks up for grabs for Everett from quarterback Justin Herbert.

Yeboah (calf) is considered doubtful for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Yeboah was a late add to the Jets' injury report after failing to practice for the first time this week due to a calf injury, though the exact nature and severity of the issue are still unclear. The 24-year-old was added to the active roster Nov. 5 and, after playing five offensive snaps against the Bills in Week 9, was expected to serve as the Jets' third-string tight end Week 11, per Cimini. With Yeboah now likely to sit out, expect rookie Jeremy Ruckert to slot in behind Tyler Conklin and C.J. Uzomah against New England.

Kmet (thigh) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Atlanta, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.

Kmet was absent Wednesday and limited Thursday before ultimately logging a full practice Friday. He caught five touchdown passes the past three weeks after a 27-game streak without one, and while the TD parade can't last forever, he does face another subpar defense this Sunday, playing in a dome against the Falcons.

Andrews (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Coach John Harbaugh relayed to Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com earlier Friday that Andrews "took quite a few reps" in the final practice of Week 11, for which the tight end went down as a full participant. Still, the Ravens will take a cautious approach with Andrews' status, with Harbaugh adding, "I think we'll wait until Sunday to say for sure." With a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, Andrews' availability (or lack thereof) will become known before the early slate of games, making it easier to pivot to Baltimore backup Isaiah Likely or another TE.

Coach John Harbaugh noted that Andrews (shoulder/knee) took a lot of reps during Friday's practice, but a determination on the tight end's Week 11 status won't arrive until Sunday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

With that, we'd expect Andrews to be officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers. Fortunately for those hoping to use the tight end in fantasy lineups this week, the Ravens kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday.

Woods (shoulder) won't play in Sunday's game against the Eagles, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Woods usually is part of a three-man rotation at tight end with Kylen Granson and Mo Alie-Cox, so the rookie's absence could free up a few additional opportunities for his teammates. Woods will look to heal up in time to face the Steelers on Monday Night Football in Week 12.

Thomas (ribs) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Houston, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Thomas missed Weeks 5-7 with a calf injury and has caught only two of seven targets for 12 yards in three games since returning. He played 72 and 73 percent of offensive snaps in Washington's past two games, but Taylor Heinicke mostly has focused his attention on WR Terry McLaurin and the team's running backs.

Njoku (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram relayed via coach Kevin Stefanski that Njoku -- who last suited up Week 7 -- is progressing and will continue to be monitored over the next couple of days. Per Trotter, Njoku is optimistic about his chances of returning to action this weekend, and fortunately for those considering the tight end in Week 11 fantasy lineups, the Browns kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday.
