Rodriguez (groin) is listed as inactive Sunday at the Giants.

After being held out of Wednesday's practice due to a groin injury, Rodriguez capped Week 15 prep with back-to-back limited sessions, leaving him questionable for Sunday's game. With his lack of availability now confirmed, Rodriguez's workload from the last five contests (55 touches) likely will be split between Jacory Croskey-Merritt (45 during that span) and Jeremy McNichols (22), while Chase Edmonds also is on hand. Rodriguez's next chance to suit up is next Saturday against the Eagles.

Odunze (foot) is listed as active Sunday against the Browns.

Odunze didn't practice at all during Week 14 prep and was ruled out ahead of last Sunday's loss at Green Bay. Not long after that, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported that Odunze had been playing through a stress fracture in his foot and was considered week-to-week. After being listed as limited Wednesday through Friday and entering the weekend as questionable, Odunze's outlook brightened Saturday when a report from Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com relayed that the Bears were optimistic of the second-year wide receiver's odds to return this weekend. Now that that has come to pass, Odunze will rejoin a Bears pass-catching group that includes WRs DJ Moore, Luther Burden and Olamide Zaccheaus, TEs Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet and even RBs D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai, all of whom are healthy at the moment. In any case, since opening the season with a 20-296-5 line on 35 targets before Chicago's Week 5 bye, Odunze has managed just a 24-365-1 line on 55 targets over his last eight appearances, making him a hit-or-miss option for fantasy purposes.

The Seahawks activated Mills (knee) off the non-football injury list Saturday, and he is questionable for Sunday's Week 15 matchup against Indianapolis, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Mills had spent his entire rookie campaign to this point on the reserve/NFI list while recovering from a torn ACL he suffered during his final college season. Now that he's been activated, the Notre Dame product is eligible to make his NFL debut, though it remains to be seen if he'll be active for Sunday's game against the Colts. If he does play, Mills probably won't have a major role for a Seattle defensive line that is otherwise mostly healthy.

Ezeudu (calf) was not activated from injured reserve Saturday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Ezeudu was cleared to return to practice Wednesday, and while he was a full practice participant during Week 15 prep, he's not quite ready to make his 2025 regular-season debut. His next opportunity to do so is Week 16 against the Vikings on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Collier (knee) was not activated from injured reserve Saturday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Collier is progressing in his recovery from a knee injury that caused him to land on injured reserve in mid-September. He's not quite ready to be activated from IR, and his next opportunity to play is Week 16 against the Falcons on Sunday, Dec. 21.

The Steelers announced Sunday that Washington cleared concussion protocol and no longer carries a designation for Monday's game against the Dolphins.

After logging three straight limited practice this week, Washington had initially been listed as questionable for the contest. Now that he's been cleared to play Monday, the tight end will be able to maintain his growing role in Pittsburgh's passing game. Over his last three games, Washington has reeled in five of his seven targets for 79 yards, though it's worth noting that Washington was forced out of the Week 14 win over the Ravens after logging just 15 snaps on offense.

The Bears added Bagent to the injury report and list him as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns due to an illness.

Bagent has served as the Bears' No. 2 quarterback throughout the season, but if the ailment prevents him from suiting up Sunday, Case Keenum would step in as the top backup to starter Caleb Williams.

Clowney, who is officially questionable to play against Minnesota on Sunday due to a hamstring injury, is likely to suit up, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Clowney missed last Sunday's game against Detroit due to the hamstring issue, but he was able to follow a pair of limited practices to begin this week with a full session Friday. The veteran defensive end therefore appears set to return to action against the Vikings on Sunday. In the last three games for which he was healthy, Clowney logged a defensive snap share between 43 and 47 percent.

Ferguson (calf), who is officially questionable for Sunday's Week 15 matchup against Minnesota, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Though Ferguson logged an LP/DNP/LP practice progression this week, there hasn't been substantial chatter about him needing to miss Sunday's contest. That remains the case as of Saturday evening, though official confirmation of Ferguson's status may not come until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Should there be a surprise and Ferguson needs to sit out the matchup, Luke Schoonmaker would likely work as the Cowboys' top tight end.

Wilson (illness), who is questionable for Sunday's Week 15 matchup against Denver, will see how he feels in the morning before a determination is made about his availability, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Per Schefter, Wilson showed up at Green Bay's training facility with a virus Saturday and was sent home with medication. While the team hopes the running back has recovered enough to play Sunday, it sounds like that decision won't be made until he checks in with the Packers early Sunday. Starting RB Josh Jacobs (knee) is expected to suit up against Denver, according to Schefter, but if Wilson sits out, more carries could be available for Chris Brooks and practice-squad elevation Pierre Strong.
