Roman Wilson WR | PIT
Steelers' Roman Wilson: Healthy scratch again Week 16
Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's clash against Detroit.
This is the third straight week that Wilson is a healthy inactive. Prior to this run, he had been seeing steady offensive snaps. However, the Steelers' signing of Adam Thielen appears to have pushed Wilson out of the wideout pecking order.

Christian Mahogany G | DET
Lions' Christian Mahogany: Good to go Week 16
Mahogany (lower leg) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Mahogany was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the second-year offensive lineman has been cleared to return from a six-game absence due to a fractured left fibula that he suffered in Week 9 against the Vikings. Mahogany will reclaim his starting job at left guard for Sunday's game while Kayode Awosika (coach's decision) is sidelined as a healthy scratch.

Graham Glasgow C | DET
Lions' Graham Glasgow: Won't play Week 16
Glasgow (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.
Glasgow was unable to practice Thursday and Friday while working through a lingering knee injury, and he will not be available for Sunday's contest after going through pregame warmups. Kingsley Eguakun will start at center for the Lions in Glasgow's absence.

Will Howard QB | PIT
Steelers' Will Howard: Emergency QB again for Week 16
Howard (coach's decision) is inactive and will serve as Pittsburgh's emergency third quarterback Sunday against Detroit.
This is Howard's usual role, as both Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph are ahead of him on the QB depth chart. The only way Howard can enter the contest Sunday is if both Rodgers and Rudolph have to exit due to injury, illness or ejection.

Jordan Meredith G | LV
Raiders' Jordan Meredith: Will play Week 16
Meredith (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Meredith was working through an ankle injury during Week 16 prep. He's been given the green light to play Sunday, when he'll likely start at right guard while Caleb Rogers provides depth at the position.

Derek Stingley Jr. CB | HOU
Texans' Derek Stingley: Green light to play vs. Vegas
Stingley (oblique) is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Stingley earned the questionable tag for Sunday's game after working through an oblique injury during Week 16 prep, but he has progressed enough in his recovery over the weekend to play. The fourth-year cornerback has tallied 19 tackles (13 solo) and eight pass defenses (two interceptions) in the eight games since the Texans' Week 6 bye.

Foster Moreau TE | HOU
Saints' Foster Moreau: Departs Sunday with ankle injury
Moreau is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus the Jets due to an ankle issue, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Moreau was injured when he was tackled after making a catch in the third quarter. The veteran tight end has been working as New Orleans' No. 2 option at the position behind Juwan Johnson. If Moreau can't return Sunday, Taysom Hill and/or Jack Stoll could see more offensive snaps.

DJ Turner CB | CIN
Bengals' DJ Turner: Questionable to return
Turner (illness) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus the Dolphins.
Turner is dealing with an illness, leaving his status for the rest of the game up in the air. Josh Newton and DJ Ivey should see increased playing time if Turner ends up being unable to return.

Nick Chubb RB | HOU
Texans' Nick Chubb: Active versus Raiders
Chubb (ribs) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Despite practicing fully both Thursday and Friday, Chubb -- who was inactive in Week 15 -- was deemed questionable for the contest, as was fellow RB Woody Marks (ankle), who was limited Friday. With Marks having been made inactive versus Las Vegas, look for Chubb to have an opportunity to lead Houston's backfield in the absence of any setbacks, while 5-foot-10, 186-pounder Jawhar Jordan -- who was productive while handling added snaps in Week 15 when Chubb was inactive and Marks exited early -- is also in line for an expanded workload, and Dare Ogunbowale is another candidate to mix in.
