Tonga (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday night's game against the Ravens.

The nose tackle suffered the foot injury at some point during the first half after making three tackles. In Tonga's absence, Eric Gregory could see more snaps.

Coker caught three of five targets for 47 yards in the Panthers' 23-20 win over the Bucs on Sunday.

Coker has drawn between four and six targets in six straight games as the distant second or third option in the Carolina offense behind rookie Tetairoa McMillan. Coker has yet to hit 75 yards in any single game this season and has settled in as a low-ceiling fantasy option ahead of next Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Stroud completed 23 of 35 pass attempts for 187 yards and a touchdown while gaining no yards on four rush attempts in Sunday's 23-21 victory over Las Vegas.

Stroud failed to follow up last week's three-score outing with a more modest fantasy performance in Week 16. The 23-year-old returned to his game-manager style of play in which he protected the football and did just enough on offense to secure victory for Houston. The Ohio State product's modest totals resulted in him failing to extend his streak of throwing for 200 or more yards to four games. Stroud's low ceiling in fantasy makes him a middling option for Week 17 in a road matchup against the Chargers.

Gainwell rushed the ball nine times for 50 yards in Sunday's 29-24 win over the Lions. He added five receptions on seven targets for 78 yards and a touchdown.

Gainwell maintained his key role as a pass catcher in the Pittsburgh offense, finishing second on the team with seven targets. The Lions did a good job containing him for most of the game, though Gainwell managed an improbable 45-yard touchdown grab just before the end of the first half when he made the initial catch from the ground before popping up without being touched to reach the end zone. While overshadowed by Jaylen Warren on the ground, Gainwell also chipped in a long rush of 18 yards to help him reach 100 yards from scrimmage for the third time in his last five games. He's also reached the end zone twice in that span.

Thielen caught all four of his targets for 49 yards in the Steelers' 29-24 win over the Lions on Sunday.

Thielen's targets, catches and yards were all new season-highs for the 35-year-old wideout. After producing just two catches for 11 yards on two targets in his first two games with the Steelers, Thielen finished second on the team in receiving against Detroit. He's emerging as a clear top-three wide receiver in Pittsburgh, but it's unlikely to translate to useful fantasy numbers outside of deeper formats ahead of next Sunday's game against the Browns.

Woods (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday night's matchup with the Ravens.

The cornerback did not record a stat before exiting. Woods has played more on special teams than defense this year.

Pitts corralled seven of nine targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Cardinals.

The Falcons welcomed back No. 1 wideout Drake London (knee) from a four-game absence, but Pitts maintained his elevated role in Atlanta's passing game with Kirk Cousins under center. The 24-year-old Pitts was averaging 8.8 targets in the four games London missed, and the former's nine targets finished behind only RB Bijan Robinson's 11 on Sunday. The 2021 first-round tight end is starting to play like one by averaging 98.8 yards with four total touchdowns over his last four starts. A red-hot Pitts will attempt to keep things rolling against the Rams next Monday.

Jackson (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Jackson was kneed in the back by a Patriots defender at the end of a run late in the second quarter. Prior to getting hurt, Jackson completed seven of 10 passing attempts for 101 yards and rushed twice for seven yards. Tyler Huntley has come into the game while Jackson is unavailable.

Sanders caught both of his targets for nine yards and one touchdown in Carolina's 23-20 win over Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Sanders' six-yard touchdown in the third quarter gave the Panthers a 20-17 lead. The tight end has produced fewer than 20 receiving yards in eight of his 12 appearances this season and offers little fantasy value headed into next Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Henderson (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Henderson was deemed questionable to return shortly after being taken to the locker room. The team has not given any indication that the running back suffered a concussion. Henderson rushed five times and caught his only target for nine yards prior to getting hurt. While Henderson is sidelined, Rhamondre Stevenson will lead New England's backfield.
