    Bears' Ty Summers: Carted off field with foot injury

    Summers (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Per Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, Summers injured his foot during the opening kickoff. The injury was severe enough for Summers to be carted off the field, and while he's considered questionable to return, it's more likely that he will be sidelined the rest of the way. He has served solely on special teams this season, so his absence wouldn't impact the Bears' rotation on defense.

  • Rico Payton CB | NYG

    Giants' Rico Payton: Getting evaluated for concussion

    Payton was evaluated for a possible concussion during Sunday's 34-17 win versus the Cowboys, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

    Payton tallied a career-high seven tackles in Week 18, but it looks like he may have been hurt in the process. With the Giants eliminated from postseason contention, he'll have until the new league year to rest and recover from any injury.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Career-high 159 scrimmage yards

    Tracy rushed 18 times for 103 yards and lost a fumble while catching eight of nine targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-17 win over the Cowboys. He finishes the 2025 season with 740 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, as well as 36 catches for 288 yards and two touchdowns on 48 targets.

    Tracy capped his sophomore season with a career-high 159 scrimmage yards as the Giants notched their fourth win of the campaign. Rookie fourth-round pick Cam Skattebo established himself as the lead back prior to dislocating his ankle in Week 8, but Tracy figures to maintain a substantial role in the Giants' 2026 backfield regardless of how Skattebo's recovery goes. Tracy has exceeded 1,000 scrimmage yards in each of his first two NFL seasons.

  • Cole Van Lanen OG | JAC

    Jaguars' Cole Van Lanen: Hurts knee Sunday

    Van Lanen left Sunday's 41-7 win versus the Titans with a knee injury, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Van Lanen left the game in the middle of the fourth quarter when Jacksonville already held a 27-point lead, so any ding or bruise might have been sufficient reason for the Jaguars to reel in their starting left tackle. His status will be worth keeping an eye on as Jacksonville gets ready to host its first postseason game since 2022.

  • Kayode Awosika OG | DET

    Lions' Kayode Awosika: Won't suit up vs. Chicago

    Awosika (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Awosika will not play in Sunday's regular-season finale, so Michael Niese and Miles Frazier will serve as the top reserves on the offensive line. Awosika signed a one-year contract with the Lions in March and will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

  • Taylor Decker OT | DET

    Lions' Taylor Decker: Cleared to play Week 18

    Decker (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Decker has been cleared to return from a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury. He'll reclaim his starting spot at left tackle while Dan Skipper starts on the right side due to the absence of Penei Sewell (ankle).

  • Texans' Kaevon Merriweather: Suffers knee injury in victory

    Merriweather suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts.

    Merriweather sustained the injury in the second half, and he was ultimately unable to return to action. With Houston set to play in the wild-card round next weekend, the safety will look to return to practice as soon as possible.

  • Jaylon Moore OT | KC

    Chiefs' Jaylon Moore: Suiting up at Las Vegas

    Moore (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    After missing the Chiefs' last two games because of a knee injury he suffered in Week 15 versus the Chargers, Moore is on track to return to the field in Week 18. He projects to start at right tackle Sunday.

  • Lions' Christian Mahogany: Cleared to play vs. Chicago

    Mahogany (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Mahogany was able to shake off an illness to suit up in Sunday's regular-season finale. He will play in the final two games of the regular season after missing the prior six games while on IR due to a leg injury.

  • Ozzy Trapilo OT | CHI

    Bears' Ozzy Trapilo: Sidelined for Week 18

    Trapilo (knee/quad) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Trapilo was limited in practice all week due to knee and quad injuries. It's possible the rookie second-rounder could have played Sunday, but he will be sidelined for Week 18 and get extra rest ahead of the wild-card round of the NFC playoffs. Theo Benedet will draw the start at left tackle in Trapilo's absence.
