  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Full practice Wednesday

    Tracy (hip) practiced fully Wednesday, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

    Tracy took a big hit in the Giants' last game Dec. 1 and couldn't put much weight on his left leg as he left the field. Afterward, he called the injury a hip contusion/stinger, but with the benefit of the team's Week 14 bye, he was able to put the health concern behind him. Tracy thus is poised to split the backfield with Devin Singletary yet again Sunday against the Commanders.

  • Buccaneers' Christian Izien: Cleared to face Falcons

    Izien (neck) doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Falcons, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Izien upgraded to full practice participation Wednesday and avoided an injury designation for Thursday's game. Starting free safety Tykee Smith (neck/shoulder) is doubtful, which could lead to more opportunities for Izien or Kaevon Merriweather alongside starting strong safety Antoine Winfield.

  • Brandon Dorlus DE | ATL

    Falcons' Brandon Dorlus: Listed as questionable

    Dorlus (groin) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Dorlus logged a trio of limited practices from Monday to Wednesday, so it looks as though he'll have a fair chance to take the field versus Tampa Bay on Thursday. He wasn't able to suit up Week 14 against the Seahawks due to his groin injury. If Dorlus is unable to play Thursday, however, Elijah Garcia will stand to handle an expanded depth role on defense.

  • Jalon Walker DE | ATL

    Falcons' Jalon Walker: Listed as questionable for TNF

    Walker (quadriceps) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Walker picked up a quad injury during Atlanta's loss to Seattle in Week 14 and has been limited in practice since, meaning his status for Thursday's game could legitimately come down to the wire. If the rookie first-round pick isn't able to suit up versus Tampa Bay, Arnold Ebiketie and James Pearce will both be candidates to benefit from increased defensive snaps.

  • Lathan Ransom SAF | CAR

    Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Recovered from thumb injury

    Ransom (thumb) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Ransom suffered a thumb injury in Carolina's surprising win over the Rams on Nov. 30, but he seems to have recovered during the Panthers' Week 14 bye. With Tre'von Moehrig available after having returned from a one-game suspension, Ransom will likely be relegated to a backup role Sunday against the Saints.

  • David Onyemata DT | ATL

    Falcons' David Onyemata: Questionable to face Buccaneers

    Onyemata (foot) is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Tampa Bay, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Onyemata logged another limited practice Wednesday. He was able to play through his foot issue versus Seattle in Week 14, though that resulted in Onyemata handling a season-low 46 percent of defensive snaps, across which he tallied just two assisted tackles.

  • Panthers' Christian Rozeboom: Full participant to begin Week 15

    Rozeboom (hip/hamstring) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Rozeboom was apparently dealing with a hamstring injury in addition to the hip injury that caused him to miss Carolina's previous two games, but he recovered during the team's Week 14 bye. Barring a setback, the starting inside linebacker will be available Sunday against the Saints.

  • Jaycee Horn CB | CAR

    Panthers' Jaycee Horn: Limited participant Wednesday

    Horn (concussion) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Horn will need to upgrade to full participation by Friday and gain clearance from an independent neurologist to exit the NFL's five step concussion protocol. Only then would he be eligible to play Sunday against the Saints. Horn last suited up in Week 12 against the 49ers.

  • A.J. Terrell CB | ATL

    Falcons' A.J. Terrell: Good to go for TNF

    Terrell (neck) does not carry an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Terrell was listed as a limited participant during Tuesday's walkthrough practice, but he upgraded to full activity levels Wednesday. The standout cornerback will be available for Thursday's divisional matchup on the road against Tampa Bay. Across 11 regular season-appearances so far, Terrell has tallied 52 tackles (36 solo), eight passes defensed and one forced fumble.

  • Patriots' Terrell Jennings: Not practicing Wednesday

    Jennings (concussion) wasn't spotted at Wednesday's practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Jennings thus has two more opportunities to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills. If he ends up sidelined this weekend, D'Ernest Johnson and Craig Reynolds would be candidates to be elevated from the Patriots' practice squad to work behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson in Week 15.
