Cooks (illness), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Buffalo, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Cooks didn't practice Thursday or Friday due to the illness, but he looks like he'll be able to give it a go Sunday, even if he happens to be less than 100 percent healthy. Confirmation on the wideout's status will arrive when Dallas releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Wilson (neck), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Following the Cardinals' Week 14 bye, Wilson was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday and looks poised to make his return to the lineup for the first time since Week 10. Confirmation on Wilson's status will arrive no later than 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, when Arizona will release its inactive list. In his nine appearances prior to missing time with the neck injury, the rookie compiled a 28-435-2 receiving line on 39 targets.

Brown (heel), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Coming out of the Cardinals' Week 14 bye, Brown failed to practice Wednesday but returned to the field Thursday and Friday as a limited participant. Though head coach Jonathan Gannon has acknowledged that Brown's painful heel injury requires regular management, the wideout nonetheless appears poised to play through the health concern Sunday. Official word on Brown's status will arrive when Arizona unveils its inactive list 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, but even though he's expected to play, the receiver could be at risk of an in-game setback.

Sutton recorded five receptions on six targets for 71 yards in Saturday's 42-17 loss to the Lions.

Sutton has been productive primarily by reaching the end zone this season. While he failed to do so Saturday, he led the team in receptions and tallied four catches that went for double-digit gains. Sutton's performance marked the fourth time he's topped 70 yards this season but for only the second time in six games since Denver's Week 9 bye.

St. Brown recorded seven receptions on nine targets for 112 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 42-17 win over the Broncos.

St. Brown was overshadowed by the performances of Sam LaPorta and Jahmyr Gibbs, but he nevertheless turned in a needed bounceback performance. He entered the game having failed to top 100 receiving yards in four consecutive games, though he ended that stretch Saturday helped by three catches of over 20 yards. St. Brown also chipped in a touchdown on a 15-yard reception just before halftime, his seventh of the season and fourth in his last six contests.

Olave (ankle) is listed as questionable and will have his status for Sunday's game against the Giants determined after he goes through a pregame warmup, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Olave failed to practice in any capacity this week after seemingly sustaining the ankle injury in the Saints' Week 14 win over the Panthers. His lack of practice participation doesn't provide much reason for optimism for his availability Sunday, but Olave has proven capable of playing at less than 100 percent in the past. His status will become official when New Orleans releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Collins (calf), who is officially listed as questionable, isn't expected to play Sunday against the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Collins was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week but still is considered questionable. If he is forced to sit out, wideouts Noah Brown (knee), Robert Woods and John Metchie and tight end Dalton Schultz would likely represent the top pass catchers for quarterback Case Keenum. Collins' status will become official when Houston releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Brown (knee), who is officially listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Brown has played through the knee issue the past two weeks, so it's not surprising that he's expected to do the same Week 15. Meanwhile, Nico Collins (calf) is listed as questionable but not expected to play, according to Schefter, meaning Brown could be the top priority for targets from fill-in starting quarterback Case Keenum. Neither Collins' nor Brown's status will become official until the Texans release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Godwin (knee), who is officially listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against the Packers, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Godwin practiced in full Friday, so his expected availability for Sunday's game isn't a major surprise. Nevertheless, fantasy managers will want to confirm that Godwin is in the clear once the Buccaneers release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes before the game's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Chase sustained a separated shoulder during Saturday's 27-24 overtime win against the Vikings, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Chase injured his right shoulder late in the Bengals' Week 15 matchup and was unable to return, finishing with four catches (on four targets) for 64 yards. After his departure, he was seen with a wrap of some sort on the shoulder while in street clothes. It's unclear if Chase will be able to play through the issue, but his status could gain some clarity as soon as Tuesday, when the team may hold a practice ahead of next Saturday's contest at Pittsburgh.
