  • Bears' Luther Burden: Limited listing Thursday

    Burden (ankle) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate.

    Burden now has put together back-to-back limited listings on Bears injury reports since he sat out Week 16 against the Packers due to an ankle issue, potentially putting himself in a position to return to action Sunday at San Francisco. Meanwhile, fellow WR Rome Odunze (foot) again was listed as a DNP on Thursday. In the end, Friday's practice report will unveil if either Burden or Odunze have a chance to see Week 17 action.

  • Mack Hollins WR | NE

    Patriots' Mack Hollins: Estimated as DNP

    Hollins (abdomen) was estimated as a non-participant at practice Thursday.

    Hollins didn't practice Wednesday due to an abdomen issue, and had the team held an on-field session Thursday, he would've remained sidelined again. In order to have a chance at being cleared for Sunday's road matchup against the Jets, Hollins may need to resume practicing in at least a limited capacity Friday.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Listed as limited Thursday

    London (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's estimated practice report, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    London made his return from a four-game absence due to a sprained PCL in his left knee this past Sunday at Arizona, a contest in which he logged a 69 percent snap share and gathered in three of eight targets for 27 yards. His listed practice restrictions Thursday likely are related to maintenance, and he'll have two more chances to get back to full this week before the Falcons potentially give him a designation for Monday's contest against the Rams.

  • Rome Odunze WR | CHI

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Another DNP on Thursday

    Odunze (foot) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's estimated injury report.

    Odunze last took part in practice Dec. 12 due to a stress fracture in his foot that has bothered him for a good portion of the season. Because the Bears didn't hold a session Thursday, he'll have only one more opportunity for on-field work this week before the team potentially makes a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game at San Francisco. Fellow WR Luther Burden (ankle) was listed as limited for a second day in a row, so Chicago may be getting some reinforcements in the passing game if the rookie second-round pick is able to put an end to a one-game absence.

  • A.J. Brown WR | PHI

    Eagles' A.J. Brown: Listed as DNP on Thursday

    Brown (teeth) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate.

    Brown underwent a dental procedure this week and now has been listed as a 'DNP' on both the Eagles' first two Week 17 injury reports. He thus will have just one more chance to mix into drills Friday before the team potentially tags him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at Buffalo. Brown has been productive over the last five contests, with a cumulative 35-478-4 line on 49 targets during that span.

  • Tom Kennedy WR | DET

    Lions' Tom Kennedy: Ready for Thursday's game

    Kennedy (abdomen) is active for Thursday's game against the Vikings.

    Kennedy was initially listed as questionable for Week 17, but he's been cleared to suit up Christmas Day. He'll handle his usual role as Detroit's top kick returner while also contributing as a depth option at wide receiver.

  • Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Active in Week 17

    St. Brown (knee) is active for Thursday's game at Minnesota.

    Coach Dan Campbell told Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press on Tuesday that St. Brown was dealing with "a little irritation" in his knee that held him out of Monday's walkthrough before the wide receiver capped the week with back-to-back limited walkthroughs. The Lions then listed St. Brown as questionable for Week 17 action, but Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Thursday morning that the wideout was expected to play, which now has been confirmed. Since he missed most of a Thanksgiving matchup with the Packers due to an ankle injury, St. Brown has suited up in each of the last three contests, accruing a 23-310-2 line on 36 targets during that span.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Gets rest day Thursday

    Godwin (fibula/rest) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's estimated injury report, per Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site.

    After Godwin was limited at Wednesday's practice due to his lingering fibula injury, he received a rest day one day later. Friday's practice report will reveal if he's able to enter the weekend without a designation for Sunday's game at Miami. Godwin has compiled a modest 19-192-1 line on 28 targets over the last five contests after sitting out Weeks 6-11.

  • Jalen Tolbert WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Active on Christmas Day

    Tolbert is not among Dallas' inactives for Thursday's Week 17 game against the Commanders, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Tolbert was a healthy scratch each of the previous three weeks, but he'll be available Christmas Day. His opportunity comes as a result of Ryan Flournoy missing the contest due to a knee injury. Tolbert may still have a hard time getting on the field often, as CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, KaVontae Turpin and perhaps Jonathan Mingo are all above him in the WR pecking order.

  • Jonathan Mingo WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Could have bigger role Thursday

    Mingo is not among Dallas' inactives for Thursday's Week 17 game against the Commanders, per Todd Archer of ESPN.com, and he could see an increased role with Ryan Flournoy (knee) out of action.

    Mingo has had a quiet season so far, tallying one catch on three targets for 25 yards over four games. He'll still be behind CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens and KaVontae Turpin in the WR pecking order Thursday, but Mingo could get a few more looks due to Flournoy's absence. Mingo has been a bit more involved of late anyway, notching 14 offensive snaps Week 15 and eight offensive snaps last Sunday against the Chargers.
