Brandon Allen QB | TEN
Titans' Brandon Allen: First appearance of 2025 season
Allen completed 17 of 30 passes for 72 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 41-7 loss to the Jaguars.
Allen was forced into the game at the start of Tennessee's second offensive possession to make his first appearance of the season. He went on to have a dismal performance, averaging only 2.4 yards per attempt, even with a long completion of 21 yards. Allen will hit free agency this offseason and will likely be competing for a backup job in 2026.

Brett Toth OG | PHI
Eagles' Brett Toth: Ruled out Sunday
Toth (head) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
The backup lineman was evaluated for a possible concussion after a blow to the head earlier in the second half. Toth was playing left guard on a day when the Eagles were resting most of their starters, and Matt Pryor came in to replace him.

Dalton Schultz TE | HOU
Texans' Dalton Schultz: Four grabs in Week 18 win
Schultz caught all four of his targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts.
The veteran tight end wrapped up the regular season on a high note, catching at least three passes for a sixth straight game. Schultz set new career highs with 82 receptions on 106 targets over 17 games, turning that volume into 777 yards and three TDs. He'll remain a reliable chain-mover for C.J. Stroud heading into the playoffs, beginning with a wild-card round clash with the winner of Sunday night's AFC North battle between the Ravens and Steelers.

Tony Pollard RB | TEN
Titans' Tony Pollard: Held to 65 yards in Week 18
Pollard rushed the ball 14 times for 48 yards in Sunday's 41-7 loss to the Jaguars. He added three receptions on three targets for 17 yards.
Pollard was unable to keep his recent level of play going, falling below 95 yards from scrimmage for the first time since Week 13. He still dominated work out of the Titans' backfield, however, and found enough running room to set a new career high of 1,082 rushing yards for the season. Pollard is set to enter the final year of his current contract with the Titans and is likely to remain the team's lead back in 2026.

Xavier Hutchinson WR | HOU
Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Leading receiver Sunday
Hutchinson caught five of nine targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts.
With Nico Collins getting held out of the game ahead of the playoffs, Hutchinson stepped up to lead the Texans in catches and receiving yards, tying his season high in receptions while setting new high-water marks for 2025 in yardage and targets. The third-year wideout finished the regular season with a career-best 35-428-3 line on 57 targets over 17 games, but he'll likely be a secondary option for C.J. Stroud in the wild-card round against the winner of Sunday night's AFC North clash between the Ravens and Steelers.

Theo Wease Jr. WR | MIA
Dolphins' Theo Wease: Might have concussion
Wease was evaluated for a possible concussion during Sunday's game against the Patriots, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
The wide receiver caught three passes for 44 yards on five targets before exiting. Wease entered the day with three catches for 95 yards and a touchdown on the year.

Quinn Ewers QB | MIA
Dolphins' Quinn Ewers: Hurt in season finale
Ewers (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Ewers got injured in the fourth quarter with the Dolphins trailing by a significant margin. Prior to getting hurt, he completed 16 of 23 passes for 137 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing once for nine yards. The rookie seventh-round pick started the final three games of Miami's season, posting a 3:3 TD:INT prior to picking up the injury.
-
Woody Marks RB | HOU
Texans' Woody Marks: Limited workload in Week 18
Marks carried the ball 10 times for 48 yards and caught two of three targets for zero yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts.
The Texans wound up sitting many of their starters, including Marks, in the second half as their chances of winning the AFC South slipped away in Jacksonville. As a result, British Brooks led the team with 63 rushing yards. Marks didn't take on a significant role in the Houston offense until Week 4, but the 2025 fourth-round pick still wrapped up his first NFL season with 911 scrimmage yards and five total TDs (two rushing, three receiving) over 16 games. He'll lead the Texans backfield into a wild-card clash with the winner of Sunday's night's AFC North battle between the Ravens and Steelers.

Maxwell Hairston CB | BUF
Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Unlikely to return Sunday
Hairston (ankle) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest against the Jets.
Hairston sustained an ankle injury in the second half, and he's now unlikely to return to action in Week 18. In his absence, Christian Benford and Tre'Davious White will continue to operate as the team's primary options at cornerback versus New York.
-
Roman Wilson WR | PIT
Steelers' Roman Wilson: Inactive Sunday night
Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday Night Football against the Ravens.
The wide receiver is now a healthy scratch for the fourth time in five weeks, though he did play nine offensive snaps against the Browns in Week 17. Even with DK Metcalf out due to a suspension, Calvin Austin, Adam Thielen, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Scotty Miller and Ben Skowronek are ahead of Wilson on the depth chart.
