Proche (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.

The rookie sixth-rounder will sit out for the first time this season with Chris Moore (hand) back in the lineup. Through 14 games, Proche has mainly contributed in the return game. Either Marquise Brown or Willie Snead will fill in on punt returns in Proche's place.

Brown (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Brown missed practice Thursday due to the knee issue, but he returned to full activity Friday to take a questionable designation into the weekend. With Brown experiencing no setbacks heading into Sunday, he should be able to take on a normal snap load as the Ravens' No. 1 receiver. Brown has reached the end zone in three of his last four outings while racking up 17 receptions for 272 yards over that stretch.

Robinson (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Robinson was considered questionable for Sunday's contest, though his availability never truly appeared in doubt. The 27-year-old has 27 receptions for 355 yards and three touchdowns in four games since Chicago's Week 11 bye and will look to continue his strong run of play at Jacksonville.

Hill (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

This was the expected outcome, though ESPN's Adam Schefter previously noted that Kansas City plans to "monitor Hill" during Sunday's game and "be smart with him as well." Assuming no in-game setbacks, however, Hill should remain a key playmaker in his team's Week 16 offense, which will take aim at an Atlanta defense that has allowed an average of 287.7 passing yards per game to date. Only Seattle (293.0) has allowed more.

Powell (foot) is active for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

With Julio Jones (hamstring) out of the lineup, Powell should handle a decent workload Sunday. In the last two games without Jones, Powell played at least 43 percent of the snaps on offense. However, he didn't capitalize on the extra opportunities in that stretch, catching just three passes for 14 yards.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network calls Allen (hamstring) a "legit game-time decision" for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Adam Schefter of ESPN previously suggested that the "plan going into Sunday is to let (Allen) recover" from his hamstring injury, but it appears as though the wideout will test things out during pre-game warmups before a final call is made on his status for the Chargers' 4:05 ET kickoff. Allen approached his team's Dec. 17 game against the Raiders in a similar fashion before suiting up and seeing a limited snap share (36 percent), en route to catching just one pass in his team's Week 15 win.

Brown (knee), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, "is likely a go" for the contest, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Official confirmation of the wideout's status will arrive before the first wave of Sunday kickoffs, with the Ravens taking on the Giants at 1 p.m. ET. In the Ravens' 40-14 win over the Jaguars in Week 15, Brown led the team's receiving corps with six catches on seven targets for 98 yards.

Renfrow secured all five of his targets for 34 yards, adding five punt returns for 61 yards during Saturday's 26-25 loss to Miami.

Renfrow posted 32, 19 and 13-yard punt returns during the Week 16 defeat, with his longest helping Las Vegas to its first touchdown of the contest at the 8:25 mark of the first quarter. The 25-year-old's five targets, meanwhile, tied him for third on the team behind Nelson Agholor and Darren Waller, who each enjoyed significantly more explosive offensive nights with receiving outputs of 155 yards and 112 yards, respectively. Agholor notched the Raiders' lone receiving TD of Week 16, while Renfrow carries an eight-game scoring drought into a season finale against the Broncos.

McLaurin (ankle), who is listed as doubtful, isn't expected to play Sunday versus Carolina, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The 24-year-old was labeled doubtful when Washington released its injury report Friday, and it appears his outlook hasn't improved halfway through the weekend. Running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is likely to suit up despite being considered questionable, and quarterback Alex Smith (calf) is also listed as questionable for the Football Team. Cam Sims, Logan Thomas and J.D. McKissic are poised for increased roles in the passing game with McLaurin not expected to play Sunday.

Robinson (hamstring), who is listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday at Jacksonville, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

It's not a major surprise to see that the 27-year-old intends to suit up Sunday, as the Bears can secure a wild-card spot by winning their final two games of the regular season. Robinson's availability will come into focus when Chicago releases its list of inactives about 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.
