Adebo (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The Stanford product missed the Giants' last five games due to a sprained MCL, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he'll return Monday night. Adebo is one of New York's top boundary corners, recording 48 total tackles and four passes defended across just seven appearances this season. Now fully healthy, he's expected to start opposite Cor'Dale Flott in the Giants' secondary in Week 13.

Flannigan-Fowles (neck) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Despite his questionable designation, Flannigan-Fowles is likely trending toward not playing Monday after beginning the Giants' week of practice with consecutive DNPs. The 29-year-old has appeared in seven games this season, recording 24 total tackles and one pass defensed. If he's inactive for the Week 13 contest, Neville Hewitt and Zaire Barnes could have expanded roles in the Giants' linebacker corps.

Robinson (ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Robinson and Darius Slayton (hamstring) were both absent from Saturday's injury report, and both will be catching passes from Jaxson Dart on Monday after the rookie quarterback cleared the league's concussion protocol. Robinson is in the midst of a career year, logging a 66-794-3 line on 102 targets through 12 regular-season games, with much of that extra production coming after Malik Nabers tore his ACL in Week 4 against the Chargers.

Lawrence (elbow) has no injury designation ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Despite logging consecutive DNPs to begin the Giants' week of practice, Lawrence will suit up for the Week 13 contest. The All-Pro defensive lineman has played in all 12 of New York's games this season, recording 24 total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, and three passes defensed. Now fully healthy, he's expected to wreak havoc on the Patriots' offensive line Monday night.

The Browns are open to using Sanders as their starting quarterback for the rest of the 2025 season, depending on how he fares during his ensuing starts, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Sanders made his first NFL start in the Browns' Week 12 win over the Raiders, completing11 of 20 passes for 209 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He drew the start for that game after Dillon Gabriel was placed in concussion protocol following Cleveland's Week 11 loss to Baltimore. Despite Gabriel clearing the protocol ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers, Sanders will retain the starting job, and the former could be in line to hang on to the job for the balance of the season.

Waller (pectoral) is expected to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Waller was cleared to return to practice Wednesday and was a limited participant throughout Week 13 prep. Despite the lack of a full practice, the veteran tight end appears to have progressed enough in his recovery from a pectoral injury to be activated from IR. Waller's return gives quarterback Tua Tagovailoa another big target in the passing game, particularly in the red zone, as Waller hauled in four touchdown passes from Weeks 4 to 6. Waller may have his snap count limited Sunday, but his return means Greg Dulcich and Julian Hill will see less work on offense.

Restrepo was elevated from the Titans' practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

The undrafted rookie from Miami will join the Titans' active roster for the second consecutive week ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against the Jaguars. In the Week 12 loss to the Seahawks, Restrepo received the third-most targets on the team (six), though he caught just two passes for 26 yards. He's likely to play a pivotal role in Tennessee's wide-receiver corps again in Week 13.

The Texans signed Speed to their practice squad Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Speed was added to the active roster Saturday.

The third-year corner from Michigan State was dropped by the Browns in early October, but it now appears he's found a new home in Houston. Speed's last in-game action came with the Bears in 2024, when he appeared in two contests and failed to record a stat across 17 total snaps (14 on special teams, three on defense).

Brownlee (hip) has been downgraded and is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Falcons.

The second-year pro from Louisville was added to the Jets' injury report Friday due to a hip issue, and it now appears he's trending toward not playing in Sunday's contest. If Brownlee is sidelined as expected in Week 13, Ja'Sir Taylor and Qwan'tez Stiggers will likely have expanded roles in New York's secondary.

Lazard (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

The injury is a new one for Lazard, as he wasn't listed on the Jets' injury report during Week 13 prep. His status may not be officially known until the Jets announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Lazard is not cleared to play, then Isaiah Williams, Arian Smith and Tyler Johnson would be the top candidates to see more offensive snaps.
