The Cardinals placed Dortch (chest) on injured reserve Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Dortch thus will miss at least the next four games due to the chest injury that didn't allow him to practice at all during Week 14 prep, meaning his next possible chance to play this season is Week 18 at the Rams. With Marvin Harrison (heel) out for Sunday's game against the Rams and all of Dortch, Zay Jones (Achilles) and Simi Fehoko (wrist) on IR, Arizona's available wide receivers will be Michael Wilson, Andre Baccellia and practice-squad elevations Trent Sherfield and Jalen Brooks, while Xavier Weaver (hamstring) is questionable to suit up.

Ogbonnia (elbow) is questionable for Monday's game versus the Eagles.

The Chargers designated Ogbonnia to return to practice Nov. 29 after he missed the last five games with an elbow injury. Though he has not been officially activated off injured reserve, the 25-year-old was able to string together multiple full practices, giving him the potential to play in Week 14 against the Eagles.

The Commanders activated Brown (groin/knee) from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game in Minnesota.

Brown thus is poised for his first action since Week 2, as he seeks to put an end to a 10-game absence due to groin and knee injuries. The Commanders are turning back to second-year QB Jayden Daniels after he completed his recovery from a dislocated left elbow, so the passing game is as close to 100 percent as it has been since the very early stages of the campaign. Brown will be operating behind the top WR duo of Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel on Sunday, assuming he's made active about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

The Chargers have ruled out Fisk (ankle) for Monday's game against the Eagles.

Fisk was unable to practice this week with an ankle injury. It's unclear when he was injured, as he saw 26 snaps on offense in Week 13, on par with the rest of the season. Oronde Gadsden should not see much of a role change; however, Will Dissly and Tyler Conklin could see a higher snap count and larger role in the blocking game in Fisk's absence.

The Packers activated Reed (foot/shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.

A shade more than two weeks removed from Green Bay designating Reed for return from injured reserve, he now officially has a chance for his first game action since Week 2, after which he underwent procedures to address a broken collarbone and a Jones fracture in his foot. Assuming he's active once the team posts its inactive list about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll rejoin a receiving corps that includes Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks and Bo Melton, while Matthew Golden (wrist) also is listed as questionable like Reed.

The Saints elevated Austin from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus Tampa Bay.

Austin will be elevated for the third straight week and should continue to serve as a depth receiver and special teamer. This is the final time this season that New Orleans can elevate the 25-year-old, and the team will need to sign him to the active roster in order for Austin to appear in another game.

The Steelers elevated Valdes-Scantling from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Ravens, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Valdes-Scantling could make his debut with Pittsburgh during Sunday's matchup after joining the practice squad early last month. The 31-year-old caught four passes for 40 yards across five appearances with the 49ers earlier in the season and will likely serve as a depth receiver versus Baltimore.

Dotson (toe) doesn't have a designation for Monday's game at the Chargers.

Dotson was limited in the first two practices of Week 14 prep due to a toe injury, but his return to all activity Saturday has him in the clear for Monday. In 12 games this season, he's had a few splash plays but mustered just a cumulative 11-206-1 line on 21 targets while working behind the top WR duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

The Chiefs signed Edwards to the active roster from their practice squad Saturday.

Edwards will officially join the active roster after logging four tackles (two solo) in his season debut during the team's Week 13 loss to Dallas. With Christian Roland-Wallace landing on injured reserve with a back injury earlier in the day, Edwards could take over as the team's starting slot cornerback going forward.

Haskins (hamstring) is questionable for Monday night's game versus the Eagles, but he remains on injured reserve.

Haskins was a full participant in his second practice back since being placed on injured reserve in Week 8. It's still unclear if the 26-year-old will be activated for the Chargers' Week 14 game, but if he is, the team could be getting two additions to the backfield against the Eagles, as 2025 first-round pick Omarion Hampton's return is trending in a positive direction, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Should Hampton be activated off injured reserve, he will likely take a majority of the RB reps. It's yet to be known what Haskin's role would be, as Kimani Vidal is also healthy.
