  • Bryan Bresee DT | NO

    Saints' Bryan Bresee: Remains out of practice

    Bresee (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

    Bresee didn't practice at all last week and sat out Sunday's win over Tennessee. With a DNP to begin Week 18 prep, his potential to return to action for New Orleans' season finale this coming Sunday in Atlanta is shaky, at best. Should Bresee need to sit out again, Jonathan Bullard and Nathan Shepherd (ankle) would be candidates for more defensive snaps.

  • Caelen Carson CB | DAL

    Cowboys' Caelen Carson: On track to play Week 18

    Carson (shoulder/hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Shoulder and hamstring injuries prevented Carson from playing in each of the Cowboys' last two games, but his full practice Wednesday puts him on track to return for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Giants. With Trevon Diggs being claimed off waivers by the Packers on Wednesday, Carson and Trikweze Bridges figure to be the Cowboys' two starting outside corners for Week 18.

  • Demario Davis OLB | NO

    Saints' Demario Davis: Dealing with calf issue

    Davis logged a limited practice session Wednesday due to a calf injury.

    Davis presumably picked up the injury in this past Sunday's win over Tennessee. His ability to post a limited session Wednesday suggests the issue isn't especially severe, though the veteran linebacker's status for Week 18 is still uncertain. New Orleans has long been eliminated from playoff contention, so the team doesn't have much reason to roll out Davis if he's not fully ready to play.

  • Cowboys' Shavon Revel: DNP to open Week 18 prep

    Revel (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Revel entered the league's concussion protocol following the Cowboys' win over the Commanders on Christmas Day. Even if he does return to practice over the next two days, the rookie third-rounder would have to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to play against the Giants in Sunday's regular-season finale. Revel has accumulated 32 tackles (20 solo) and three pass defenses over his last five games.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Rams' Davante Adams: Unlikely to play Sunday

    Coach Sean McVay said Wednesday that he doesn't expect Adams (hamstring) to play Sunday against the Cardinals, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    Adams hasn't practiced since aggravating an existing hamstring injury Week 15 against the Lions, missing two games so far. He appears destined to make it three straight absences this weekend based on McVay's comments. If that comes to pass, Puka Nacua, Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith (chest, LP on Wednesday), Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington will comprise the Rams' receiving corps.

  • Cowboys' DeMarvion Overshown: Limited in Wednesday's practice

    Overshown (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Overshown entered the league's concussion protocol during the Cowboys' Week 16 loss to the Chargers, which prevented him from playing against the Commanders on Christmas Day. His ability to practice in a limited capacity indicates that he is progressing in his recovery, but Overshown would need to be cleared from the league's protocol by an independent neurologist in order to be available for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Giants.

  • Hassan Haskins RB | LAC

    Chargers' Hassan Haskins: Able to log limited practice Wednesday

    Haskins (concussion) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    Haskins suffered a concussion Saturday versus the Texans, but his limited practice to begin Week 18 prep suggests he could return this Sunday against Denver. For that to happen, though, he'd have to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. If Haskins is able to play, he could have an elevated role on offense since head coach Jim Harbaugh has already indicated he'll rest at least some starters ahead of Los Angeles' upcoming playoff run.

  • Josh Sweat OLB | ARI

    Cardinals' Josh Sweat: DNP to open Week 18 prep

    Sweat (ankle/knee) did not practice Wednesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Sweat did not practice during Week 17 prep due to ankle and knee injuries but was still cleared to play against the Bengals, when he logged one tackle while playing 24 defensive snaps. He's opened Week 18 prep with a DNP but may need to practice in order to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rams. If Sweat ends up sitting out, Dante Stills and Jordan Burch would be poised to see more snaps at defensive end.

  • Derius Davis WR | LAC

    Chargers' Derius Davis: Posts limited practice Wednesday

    Davis (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    Davis has missed Los Angeles' past three games due to an ankle injury. It's a step in the right direction that he was able to log a limited practice Wednesday after not practicing at all last week. Davis thus seems to have a chance to return to action Sunday versus Denver for a game that head coach Jim Harbaugh has said he'll rest at least some of his starters. If Davis can play, he could see a slightly elevated role on offense and would also probably reclaim his role as the Chargers' top return man.

  • Jack Bech WR | LV

    Raiders' Jack Bech: Logs full practice Wednesday

    Bech (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Bech was a late addition to the Raiders' injury report during Week 17 prep, which resulted in him being sidelined for this past Sunday's loss against the Giants. He was able to practice without restriction Wednesday, which puts the rookie second-rounder on track to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Chiefs. Bech has accumulated 20 catches (on 27 targets) for 224 yards through the first 15 regular-season games of his NFL career.
