  • Jeff Wilson RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jeff Wilson: Elevated from practice squad

    The Dolphins elevated Wilson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official sitereports.

    The eight-year veteran was active in the Dolphins' first two games of the season, seeing just one offensive snap before returning to the practice squad. With De'Von Achane (shoulder) doubtful for Week 18, Wilson will likely act as a depth piece behind Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Staying on IR, done for 2025

    Sanders (hip) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Sunday's game against the Patriots, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Sanders will end up spending the entire 2025 season on injured reserve due to a hip injury he sustained in the preseason. Riley Patterson will serve as the Dolphins' starting kicker in Sunday's regular-season finale, as he's done for the entire 2025 campaign.

  • Browns' Edefuan Ulofoshio: Signed to active roster

    The Browns signed Ulofoshio from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

    Ulofoshio will act as a depth piece at linebacker after the Browns placed standout rookie Carson Schwesinger on injured reserve ahead of the team's final game of the season. Ulofoshio has yet to play this season, but he accounted for six total tackles and one pass breakup through four games in 2024.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Under the weather, playing Saturday

    Godwin was added to the Buccaneers' injury report due to an illness but does not have an injury status heading into Saturday's NFC South clash against the Panthers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    The illness won't prevent Godwin from playing in Saturday's regular-season finale, which will determine who wins the NFC South division title and enters the playoffs as the conference's fourth seed. If Godwin's playing time is limited due to the illness, then Jalen McMillan and Emeka Egbuka would be in line to see more snaps on offense alongside Mike Evans. Godwin is coming off his best performance of the season in a Week 17 loss to the Dolphins, catching seven passes (on eight targets) for 108 yards and a touchdown.

  • Josh Butler CB | DAL

    Cowboys' Josh Butler: Activated off PUP list

    Butler (knee) was activated off the reserve/PUP list Saturday and remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Butler posted his first full participation Friday since returning to practice Dec. 17, but he remains questionable for Week 18 versus the Giants. The 29-year-old has yet to play this season but accounted for 21 total tackles and five pass breakups through five games in 2024. If he's available, Butler could have increased reps in the season finale alongside Caelen Carson and Shavon Revel.

  • Phil Mafah RB | DAL

    Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Activated off IR

    Mafah (shoulder) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Mafah upgraded to full participation in practice Friday after being limited to start the week. Though he is still questionable, the 23-year-old could be an important depth option versus the Giants, as the Cowboys are without their top two running backs, Javonte Williams (shoulder/neck) and Malik Davis (calf/eye), leaving Jaydon Blue as the sole healthy option in Week 18. If Mafah does play, the 2025 seventh-round pick would be making his career debut.

  • Sal Cannella TE | CLE

    Browns' Sal Cannella: Elevated from practice squad

    The Browns elevated Cannella from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

    Cannella could see the field for the second game in a row after being elevated from the practice squad in back-to-back weeks. With both Harold Fannin (groin) and David Njoku (knee) out in Week 18, Cannella has another opportunity to build off his Week 17 game, where he led all tight ends with four targets, accounting for two receptions and 11 yards.

  • Malik Davis RB | DAL

    Cowboys' Malik Davis: Lands on IR

    The Cowboys placed Davis (eye/calf) on injured reserve Saturday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Davis was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants due to eye and calf injuries that he sustained against the Commanders on Christmas Day. Both Davis and Javonte Williams (shoulder) were placed on injured reserve, which corresponded with the Cowboys activating Josh Butler (knee) from the reserve/PUP list and Phil Mafah (shoulder) from injured reserve. Davis will finish the 2025 season with 52 carries for 250 yards and two touchdowns along with two catches (on five targets) for 16 yards.

  • Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Placed on injured reserve

    The Cowboys placed Williams (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Williams was already ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Giants due to a lingering shoulder injury, but his placement on injured reserve opens up a spot on Dallas' 53-man roster for the activation of Phil Mafah (shoulder) from IR. With Williams and Malik Davis (eye/calf) both out, Mafah and rookie Jaydon Blue are set to lead the Cowboys' backfield for Week 18. Williams enjoyed a career year in Dallas and will end the 2025 season with 252 carries for 1,201 yards and 11 touchdowns while adding 35 catches (on 51 targets) for 137 yards and two scores across 16 games. Williams signed a one-year, $4 million contract with the Cowboys in March and will enter the 2026 offseason as a free agent.

  • Browns' Carson Schwesinger: Heads to IR with ankle injury

    The Browns placed Schwesinger (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Schwesinger was ruled out for the Browns' season finale Friday, but the move to injured reserve likely created space for Edefuan Ulofoshio to move up to the active roster. Schwesinger, a 2025 second-round pick, ends his stellar rookie campaign with 156 tackles (67 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and three pass breakups, including two interceptions. Jerome Baker will likely have an expanded role in Week 18 with Schwesinger out.
