Pili (knee) is not listed on Seattle's injury report for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Pili hurt his knee in Week 14 at Atlanta, but it evidently was a minor issue, and he won't miss any time because of it. He should settle back into a rotational role on the defensive line behind 2024 first-rounder Byron Murphy and veteran Jarran Reed in Week 15.

Brown (personal) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Brown will miss a second consecutive game while attending to a personal matter. Jon Gaines will likely stay on as the Cardinals' starting left guard for as long as Brown is out of action.

Decker (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Decker has been playing through a shoulder injury for most of the season and missed a pair of games earlier in the campaign. While he has been able to suit up for most games, he didn't practice at all during the week. Given that, Decker appears to be in serious danger of missing the Lions' Week 15 contest.

Sundell (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Sundell was a full participant at practice Thursday, but he'll still need to be officially activated from Seattle's injured reserve list before he can take the field again. If he has to sit out another week with his knee issue, 2023 fifth-rounder Olu Oluwatimi would project to make another start at center in Week 15.

Awosika (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Awosika missed the Lions' key Week 14 win over the Cowboys but was able to log three limited practices ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams. His status will become clear shortly before kickoff.

Jackson (knee/groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Jackson was able to practice in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Sunday. He continues to work through a lingering knee injury from 2023 -- along with a newer groin issue -- and will aim to be available for Week 16 against the Eagles on Saturday, Dec. 20.

Van Roten (shoulder) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Van Roten was sidelined to begin the week with a shoulder issue. However, limited sessions on both Thursday and Friday will be enough for him to suit up in Week 15.

Little (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Little ended the week with back-to-back full practices, but he'll need to pass an evaluation from an independent neurologist in order to clear the league's concussion protocol. If he's cleared to play, Little will likely reclaim his starting spot at left tackle while Cole Van Lanen reverts to a reserve role on the offensive line.

Smith (ankle) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game versus the Chargers, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

It looked like Smith would be able to return to game action in Week 15 when he managed a full practice Wednesday, but he subsequently downgraded to limited participation Thursday and then missed practice entirely Friday. Per Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com, coach Andy Reid said Friday, "I don't think he's quite there." Now he'll miss his third straight game as he continues to recover from an ankle sprain, and Mike Caliendo projects to make another start at right guard in his stead.

Green (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Green has been sidelined since Week 9 with the hamstring injury but was able to log three full practices this week. That sets him up for a potential return, though he'll need to be activated from injured reserve by Saturday evening to have a chance to suit up Sunday.
