Coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Reed (foot) has yet to be medically cleared to return to game action, but the plan is to see where he's at by the end of the week, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Reed hasn't played since Week 2 due to foot and collarbone injuries, but his 21-day practice window was opened 10 days ago. He should be considered genuinely questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears. If Reed remains sidelined, the Packers will likely continue to lean on Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks as their main three-wide set.

Higgins remains in the league's concussion protocol Monday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Higgins was concussed eight days ago in the Bengals' Week 12 loss to the Patriots and missed last Thursday night's win over the Ravens. He has six more days to get ready for next Sunday's game against the Bills. If Higgins can't get cleared, Andrei Iosivas and Mitchell Tinsley should again see increased reps alongside Ja'Marr Chase.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday that Teller (calf) is considered week-to-week, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

The veteran from Virginia Tech likely sustained a calf injury in the Week 13 loss to the 49ers, as he played just 31 of the Browns' 63 offensive snaps. If Teller is inactive for the Week 14 matchup against the Titans as expected, Teven Jenkins is will likely start at right guard.

Coach John Harbaugh said Hill (neck) will be sidelined 3-to-4 weeks, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Hill was apparently injured in practice last week and was placed on injured reserve ahead of last Thursday night's game against the Bengals. He'll miss at least three more contests while on IR, but it sounds like he'll have a chance to return when eligible Week 17. Keaton Mitchell and Rasheen Ali will continue to handle backup duties behind Derrick Henry for the next few weeks.

Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters Monday that Wiggins (foot) is considered day-to-day, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

The second-year pro from Clemson exited the Week 13 loss to the Bengals due to a foot injury, but it now appears he avoided a serious issue. Wiggins is an integral part of Baltimore's secondary, recording 47 total tackles and nine passes defensed, including three interceptions, across 12 appearances this season. His practice participation throughout the week will likely offer the best indication of whether he can play in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Steelers.

Ingold is considered day-to-day after sustaining a shoulder injury in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Saints, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

The veteran fullback's practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of whether he can suit up for Miami's Week 14 matchup against the Jets on Sunday. Ingold has appeared in all 12 of the Dolphins' games this season, rushing twice for nine yards and catching five of seven targets for 36 yards.

Coach Raheem Morris said Monday that London (knee) is now considered day-to-day and "certainly has a chance to play" next Sunday against the Seahawks, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

London has missed the previous two games with his sprained PCL, but it sounds like he could be nearing a return to the lineup. The 4-8 Falcons don't have much to play for these days, so rushing London back at less than 100 percent in what's become a lost season doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Morris, however, may be feeling the pressure to get some late-season wins, and London would certainly help the Falcons be competitive. Playing with Kirk Cousins and at less than 100 percent would knock London down the wide receiver rankings in fantasy.

The Colts are not considering placing Gardner (calf) on injured reserve at the moment, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.

Head coach Shane Steichen told reporters Monday that Gardner's "Achilles is good," but the 25-year-old will still miss an undetermined amount of time due to a calf injury. Even so, Indianapolis is not expected to place the All-Pro corner on IR, which is an encouraging sign for his recovery timeline. Since being dealt to the Colts at the trade deadline, Gardner has appeared in three games and tallied 13 total tackles and two passes defensed. While he's sidelined, expect Mekhi Blackmon to start opposite Charvarius Ward in Indianapolis' secondary.

Zylstra (ankle) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Monday, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

The Minnesota State product has missed the Lions' last 10 games after sustaining an ankle injury in the Week 2 win over the Bears. Detroit now has 21 days to add Zylstra to its active roster before he reverts to IR. Once fully healthy, Zylstra is expected to play a depth role in the Lions' tight-end corps.

The Lions signed Armstrong to their practice squad Monday.

The rookie from Arkansas was dropped by the Dolphins in late August after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster, but he's since found work in Detroit. During his final collegiate season, Armstrong appeared in 11 games and caught 78 of 122 targets for 1,140 yards and one touchdown.
