Bateman (illness) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Head coach John Harbaugh initially expressed optimism Friday that Bateman would be able to play in Sunday's pivotal AFC North tilt, but the fifth-year wideout will end up being sidelined after missing practice all week while battling through an illness. With Bateman sidelined, Lamar Jackson will lean more on Zay Flowers, DeAndre Hopkins, Devontez Walker, Tylan Wallace and tight ends Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely in the passing game. Bateman will end the 2025 regular season with 19 catches (on 39 targets) for 224 yards and two touchdowns across 13 games. He'll aim to progress enough in his recovery to be available for the wild-card round of the AFC playoffs should the Ravens advance with a win over the Steelers on Sunday.

Walker (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.

Walker was added to Saturday's injury report due to a sudden illness, and the defensive tackle's availability for Sunday's game is now in jeopardy. If the rookie cannot recover in time for the divisional clash, Jordan Phillips (ankle), Phidarian Mathis and T.J. Sanders will likely see increased reps on the defensive line alongside Larry Ogunjobi.

The Giants placed Robinson (ribs) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

Robinson wasn't able to practice during Week 18 prep due to a rib injury before New York ruled him out for Sunday's season finale against the Cowboys. He thus finishes the 2025 campaign with 92 catches (on 140 targets) for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns, much of it without 2024 first-round pick Malik Nabers following his torn ACL from Week 4. Robinson is an unrestricted free agent this offseason and likely will be coveted coming off back-to-back 90-plus-catch seasons.

The Packers elevated Dabney from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Week 18 will be Dabney's second consecutive elevation, as the tight end logged seven offensive snaps and seven special-teams snaps in last Saturday's loss to the Ravens. The 23-year-old will likely once again operate as a supplemental blocking tight end behind Luke Musgrave and Josh Whyle due to the absences of Tucker Kraft (ACL) and John FitzPatrick (Achilles).

The Packers placed Williams (foot/illness) on injured reserve Saturday.

Williams was unable to practice for consecutive days in Week 18, and the wide receiver will officially need to miss at least four contests while he resides on IR. If the Packers can advance to the Super Bowl, Williams may be able to return for the game. The rookie third-rounder amassed 10 receptions for 78 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets while adding 11 rush attempts for 37 yards on the ground over 12 regular-season outings.

The Packers signed Keeney-James from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.

With Dontayvion Wicks (concussion) listed as doubtful and Savion Williams (foot/illness) placed on injured reserve, Keeney-James is likely set to fill the void at wide receiver for Sunday's game. If he plays, Week 18 would be the 25-year-old's first contest of the season, and he would likely be the No. 6 receiver behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden and Bo Melton.

The Saints elevated Hines from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Hines is set to participate in his first game for the Saints this season, serving as the No. 3 running back due to the absence of Alvin Kamara (MCL). Audric Estime will likely see the most offensive snaps, with Evan Hull and Hines receiving rotational snaps when it is deemed necessary.

The Saints elevated Haener from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Haener has spent most of the season on the Saints' practice squad. Due to backup quarterback Spencer Rattler (finger) being listed as questionable for Sunday's game, Haener will likely be the replacement if needed. The 26-year-old would be set to back up rookie Tyler Shough if Rattler ends up being inactive for Week 18.

The Saints signed Welch from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Welch was eligible for one more practice squad elevation, but the Saints chose to sign the tight end to the active roster instead. The 24-year-old has played in two games for the team this season, totalling nine offensive snaps and 15 special-teams snaps between the contests. Welch will likely fill a similar role in Week 18 as a supplemental blocker behind tight ends Juwan Johnson, Taysom Hill and Moliki Matavao.

Stephens (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills.

Stephens was a limited participant in Thursday's practice with a new neck injury before downgrading to a non-participant in Friday's session. The cornerback will end his season one game short, logging 73 tackles (47 solo) and nine passes defensed over 16 games. With fellow cornerback Qwan'tez Stiggers (knee) also ruled out, either Keidron Smith or Tre Brown will start at cornerback alongside Jordan Clark for Week 18.
