Harrison (heel) is listed as active Sunday at Cincinnati, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

For a second week in a row, Harrison wasn't able to progress beyond a limited participant in practice as he tends to the heel injury that sidelined him Weeks 14 and 15. He entered the weekend listed as questionable, and while Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday evening that Harrison was expected to play, the second-year wide receiver again is slated to have his workload managed. Harrison logged a 51 percent snap share last Sunday against the Falcons en route to one catch (on three targets) for 14 yards, which was well behind fellow WR Michael Wilson's 86 percent share and 2-52-1 line on three targets.

The Eagles did not activate Williams (shoulder) from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills.

Williams has been on IR since Sept. 13 with a shoulder injury, and he was designated to return to practice Dec. 11. The offensive tackle will have to be activated by the start of the new year, or he will not be able to return for the rest of the season, including the Eagles' upcoming postseason run.

Dissly caught both of his targets for 19 yards during the Chargers' 20-16 loss to the Texans on Saturday.

Dissly wasn't too far behind fellow tight end Oronde Gadsden (3-32-1 on six targets) despite the former playing just seven of 63 offensive snaps (11.1 percent) during Saturday's loss, which clinched the AFC West division for the Broncos. Dissly's role against Denver in Week 18 could be expanded if the Chargers opt to sit their starters.

McMillan (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The star rookie was a late addition to the injury report Sunday morning with an illness, but despite the questionable tag, he was always expected to suit up. McMillan has taken over as the Panthers' No. 1 wideout this season, collecting multiple receptions in all but one appearance thus far, and he has five touchdowns over his past five games, including a career-high 8-130-2 line in Atlanta during Week 11.

Harris hauled in his lone target for eight yards and logged a seven-yard carry during the Chargers' 20-16 loss to the Texans on Saturday.

Harris entered Saturday's game having accrued five targets in each of the prior two contests, but he was targeted only once by Justin Herbert in the loss. Harris has accumulated 12 catches (on 17 targets) for 159 yards over his last five games, firmly operating as a depth wideout behind Ladd McConkey, Keenan Allen and Quentin Johnston. The Chargers' Week 17 loss clinched the AFC West division for the Broncos, so if the Bolts end up resting starters in Week 18 against Denver, that could give Harris an opportunity to take on an expanded role in the offense.

Jackson (back) is considered likely to return to action for the Ravens' Week 18 game against the Steelers next Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

After bruising his back in the first half of the Ravens' Week 16 loss to the Patriots, Jackson was unable to practice in any fashion during Week 17 before being listed doubtful ahead of Saturday's game in Green Bay. He was ultimately inactive ahead of the Ravens' eventual 41-24 win over the Packers, resulting in Tyler Huntley drawing the start at quarterback. With the win keeping the 8-8 Ravens' playoff hopes alive, Jackson will turn his focus toward getting healthy for a Week 18 matchup that will decide the AFC North champion, if the Steelers aren't able to clinch the division title Sunday with a win over the Browns. Assuming Jackson is able to resume practicing as at least a limited participant during the upcoming week, he should get the green light to play in the regular-season finale.

Patterson turned his lone carry into one yard and logged 58 yards on two kickoff returns during the Chargers' 20-16 loss to the Texans on Saturday.

Even with Kimani Vidal (neck) inactive for Saturday's game, Patterson firmly operated as the Chargers' RB3 behind Omarion Hampton and Hassan Haskins (head). However, Patterson did get an opportunity as a kickoff returner due to the absences of Vidal and Derius Davis (ankle), and that could be Patterson's main path to playing time in the Chargers' Week 18 tilt against the Broncos.

McManus connected on his lone field-goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries during the Packers' 41-24 loss to the Ravens on Saturday.

McManus' lone field goal Saturday was a 24-yard chip shot early in the third quarter to cut the Packers' deficit to 10 points. He has not missed a kick since Week 10 against the Eagles, having gone 12-for-12 on field-goal attempts (including 3-for-3 on attempts from 40-plus yards) and 16-for-16 on point-after tries over his last six games.

Loop made both of his field-goal attempts and all five of his point-after tries during the Ravens' 41-24 win over the Packers on Saturday.

Loop's leg wasn't challenged Saturday, as he chipped in field goals from 22 and 34 yards in the second quarter. It was the ninth time that the rookie sixth-rounder connected on at least two field goals in a game this season. Since the Ravens' Week 7 bye, Loop has gone 20-for-22 on field-goal attempts (with both misses coming from 50-plus yards) and 26-for-27 on extra-point tries.

The Panthers expect McMillan (illness), who is listed as questionable, to play Sunday against the Seahawks, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

The Panthers added the wideout to their Week 17 injury report Sunday, but David Newton of ESPN.com relays that McMillan's addition was precautionary. Either way, confirmation of McMillan's status is set to arrive before the first wave of games Sunday, with Carolina kicking off at 1 p.m. ET.
