Swift rushed 18 times for 125 yards and a touchdown while bringing in one of two targets for 13 yards in the Bears' 24-15 win over the Eagles on Friday.

It was a banner day for the Bears' ground attack, as both Swift and Kyle Monangai comfortably exceeded 100 yards. Each back also punched in a score, with Swift's coming from three yards out late in the first quarter and serving as his first trip to the end zone on the ground since Week 8. Swift's rushing yardage total was also a new season high, making it a highly rewarding day against one of his previous squads. Swift saw four fewer carries than his rookie backfield mate Friday, however, but the division of labor could fluctuate week to week down the stretch depending on a number of factors, including who proves to have the hot hand in any given contest.

Adkins (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Adkins will miss his fourth consecutive game with a knee issue. The tight end has yet to practice in any capacity since suffering the injury in Week 8. The timetable for the tight end's return remains unclear, though the decision not to move him to IR means a return may not be as far out of sight as it seems.

Singleton (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Singleton sat out Denver's Week 11 win over the Chiefs after undergoing surgery Nov. 7 to have a cancerous tumor removed from one of his testicles. The Broncos' Week 12 bye helped the linebacker's recovery process, and he practiced in full all three days leading up to Sunday's matchup. The 31-year-old missed just four snaps through 10 weeks of play, and his return coupled with star cornerback Patrick Surtain's (pectoral) will strengthen an already dominant Broncos defense as Denver pursues its first AFC West title since 2015.

Horton reverted to the Lions' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Horton made his regular-season NFL debut Thursday against the Packers and played eight offensive snaps and another six on special teams. He didn't log any statistics in the box score.

Brightwell reverted to the Bengals' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Brightwell played six snaps on special teams in Thursday night's win over the Ravens and returned three kickoffs for 59 yards. He's now appeared in two games for Cincinnati this season.

Surtain (pectoral) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Surtain capped off the week with full practices Thursday and Friday and is ready to go for Sunday night's primetime matchup with the Commanders. The outside cornerback missed just one defensive snap in eight weeks of play before his early exit versus the Cowboys in Week 8. The return of the star will bolster an already strong Broncos defense as they attempt to secure a high seed in the AFC.

The Falcons signed Drummond to the active roster from their practice squad Friday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Drummond had already appeared in three games with Atlanta while on the practice squad and is now set to join the active roster. The 25-year-old has caught three passes for 18 yards and should serve as a depth receiver and special teamer going forward.

The Packers signed Havrisik to the practice squad Friday.

Green Bay cut Havrisik on Wednesday, but he's returning to the organization as placekicker depth behind Brandon McManus.

Mayer (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Chargers.

Mayer didn't practice this week, with his next chance to see game action set to arrive Sunday, Dec. 7 against the Broncos. In Mayer's absence this weekend, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon will work behind Las Vegas' top tight end Brock Bowers.

Lockett (ankle/quadriceps) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at the Chargers.

Lockett opened Week 13 prep as a full practice participant due to an ankle injury. A quad issue was added to the injury report Thursday, and while he finished the week with back-to-back limited sessions, he's in the clear ahead of the weekend. In four contests with the Raiders so far, Lockett has been a regular in the passing attack, gathering in 12 of 15 targets for 139 yards and no touchdowns.
