Marvin Harrison Jr. WR | ARI
Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Questionable for Sunday
Harrison (appendix) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Harrison returned to practice Wednesday, two weeks after undergoing an appendectomy. He was a limited participant all week, including Friday, when he told reporters after practice that "some things feel uncomfortable" while others "feel kind of normal," per Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com. Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon told Brack that Harrison "moved around well" during practice, but Gannon didn't comment on expectations for the wideout's availability this Sunday for the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Darren Waller TE | CAR
Dolphins' Darren Waller: Questionable, still on IR
Waller (pectoral) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Miami designated Waller for return from injured reserve Wednesday, after which he cobbled together three straight limited practices. Per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, coach Mike McDaniel said Friday regarding Waller's chances to suit up this weekend that "if there's not a setback, I'm feeling optimistic." The Dolphins will need to activate Waller from IR by Saturday afternoon for him to have a chance to be active for Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Rasul Douglas CB | WAS
Dolphins' Rasul Douglas: Questionable vs. Saints
Douglas (foot) is questionable for Miami's matchup versus the Saints on Sunday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN reports.
Douglas has missed the past two games with a foot injury but should have a chance to make his return Sunday. If the 30-year-old is unable to play however, Minkah Fitzpatrick will likely shift over to slot corner, while Ifeatu Melifonwu should see increased playing time at safety.

Benito Jones DT | LV
Dolphins' Benito Jones: Could play Sunday
Jones (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
The Ole Miss product practiced in a limited capacity throughout the week and played through his ankle injury in the Week 11 win over the Commanders, suggesting that he'll likely suit up Sunday. However, if Jones is unable to go for the Week 13 matchup, expect 2025 first-round pick Kenneth Grant to have an expanded role on Miami's defensive line.

Devin Neal RB | NO
Saints' Devin Neal: Cleared to play, should start
Neal (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Miami, setting him up as the likely starter in place of Alvin Kamara (knee).
Kamara didn't practice at all this week and could miss time beyond Sunday, although Saints head coach Kellen Moore said the 30-year-old won't be placed on injured reserve, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports. Neal played 86 percent of snaps after Kamara's early departure last week, but that was with no other running backs active for a loss to the Falcons. This week, the Saints likely will have three RBs available, with Neal joined by Audric Estime, Evan Hull and/or Ian Wheeler (all currently on the practice squad). Neal figures to get most of the snaps and touches, but it won't necessarily be an every-down role again, and Taysom Hill also will get some of the carries.

Falcons' Matthew Bergeron: Ready to rock
Bergeron (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Bergeron began Atlanta's week of practice with consecutive limited sessions, but it now appears he's moved past his ankle injury in time to play Sunday. With the Syracuse product back to full health, he's expected to start at left guard.

Falcons' Malik Verdon: Won't return in Week 13
Verdon (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Verdon has not played this season due to a shoulder injury, but he's practiced in full over the last two weeks, suggesting a return is coming soon. While the Iowa State product remains sidelined in Week 13, expect Jordan Fuller to operate as the Falcons' lone reserve free safety.

Colts' Jaylon Carlies: Won't return Sunday
Carlies (ankle) won't play in Indianapolis' matchup versus the Texans on Sunday.
Carlies hasn't played all season and will remain on injured reserve for at least one more week. The 24-year-old will now look to make his debut during the team's Week 14 matchup versus Jacksonville.

Josh Woods LB | ATL
Falcons' Josh Woods: Won't play Sunday
Woods (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
The Maryland product is now in line to miss his third consecutive game after sustaining a hamstring injury in the Week 10 loss to the Colts. While Woods remains out Sunday, JD Bertrand and Ronnie Harrison are expected to serve as Atlanta's top reserve inside linebackers.

Chris Lindstrom G | ATL
Falcons' Chris Lindstrom: Questionable for Sunday
Lindstrom (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
The 28-year-old upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to a limited practice Thursday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's contest. Head coach Raheem Morris also told reporters Friday that he "feels good" about the chances of Lindstrom playing in Week 13 despite his questionable designation, per Raimondi. If active Sunday, Lindstrom is expected to start at right guard.
