Hunt recorded three tackles and an interception in Friday's loss to the Bears.

Hunt also notched two QB hits Friday. His pickoff came midway through the third period and set up Philadelphia in Chicago territory, but the ensuing drive ended when Jalen Hurts lost a fumble. Hunt has two interceptions on the season -- his other one was a pick-six in Week 7 against Minnesota.

DeJean tallied five tackles (two solo) and a defensed pass Friday in a loss to Chicago.

DeJean has notched at least five tackles in 10 of the Eagles' 12 games this season. He's up to 72 tackles, a forced fumble and 10 defensed passes (including one interception) on the campaign.

Conner (knee) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Conner has been on injured reserve since late August after suffering a knee injury during the preseason. He remains questionable for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, but he could be in line for his NFL debut while serving in a reserve role.

Harris (ankle) was activated from injured reserve and does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Harris has been sidelined since Week 3 with a fractured fibula. He has been practicing for over two weeks after being designated to return, and it appears he's in line to be active Sunday night. Harris should serve in a starting role at safety.

The Steelers elevated Samuel from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Samuel had a lengthy recovery from back surgery before signing with the Steelers on Nov. 11. This marks his first elevation from the practice squad, and he could see his first game action since Week 4 of the 2024 season if he is active Sunday against the Bills.

Elliss (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Elliss has battled separate injuries of late, and he'll now miss his second straight game with the hamstring issue. Que Robinson should see an increased role in Elliss's absence.

Nubin (neck) does not have an injury designation for Monday's matchup against New England.

Nubin missed each of New York's past two contests while dealing with a neck issue. He was able to log an LP/FP/FP practice progression this week to set up his return to game action on Monday Night Football. Dane Belton, who has been starting in Nubin's stead, will likely return to a reserve role against the Patriots.

Nixon recorded seven tackles (seven solo) in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions.

Nixon suffered a stinger in Green Bay's Week 12 win over the Vikings, but he still managed to suit up on a short week. He played 100 percent of defensive snaps while also logging his second-highest tackle total of the season.

Atwell (hamstring) wasn't activated off IR ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Carolina, Mike Masala of Rams Wire reports.

Atwell was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and logged three full practices this week. Head coach Sean McVay expressed upon Atwell's return to practice that he expected the wideout to be activated for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, but that didn't end up happening by Saturday's deadline. Atwell will now look to make his return to game action next Sunday against Arizona.

Cooper recorded eight tackles (two solo) in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions.

Cooper was on the injury report with a foot injury leading up to the contest, though he still played nearly all of the defensive snaps. His eight tackles were his highest mark since Week 9, while he's managed to take a step forward in his second year as a pro.
