Andrew Ogletree TE | IND
Colts' Drew Ogletree: Lands on IR
The Colts placed Ogletree (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
Ogletree will miss at least Indianapolis' next four games due to a neck injury suffered during the team's Week 16 loss to San Francisco. If the Colts manage to somehow get into the playoffs and make a deep playoff run, the depth tight end could be a candidate to retake the field late January, though the Colts' chances of making the postseason are quite slim.

Anthony Gould WR | IND
Colts' Anthony Gould: Sent to IR
The Colts placed Gould (foot) on injured reserve Saturday.
Gould will miss at least Indianapolis' next four games due to a foot injury he sustained Week 14, and which has kept him out of practice since. As such, his only chance of getting back on the field this season will rely on the Colts making a deep playoff run, and it's looking very unlikely that the team even gets in. Across 11 regular-season appearances in 2025, Gould has secured both of his targets for six yards while compiling 647 yards as a kick returner and 131 yards returning punts.

DeForest Buckner DT | IND
Colts' DeForest Buckner: Officially placed on IR
The Colts placed Buckner (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
Head coach Shane Steichen said on Friday that Buckner, who had just returned from a stint on IR in Week 16, aggravated his neck injury and will undergo a procedure in Week 18, per Amanda Foster of the team's official site. He initially injured his neck in Week 9. The veteran defensive tackle will be eligible to return from IR in late January if the Colts advance far enough into the playoffs, though it's unclear whether his recovery timetable would allow for that, plus the team has only a very slim chance of sneaking into the postseason.

Ashton Dulin WR | IND
Colts' Ashton Dulin: Returns from IR, still Q
Dulin (hamstring) has been activated from injured reserve Saturday and remains questionable for Sunday's contest against the Jaguars.
Dulin is now eligible to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against Jacksonville, though his status may not be made official until roughly 90 minutes prior to the contest's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If cleared to play in Week 17, expect Dulin to resume handling his usual depth role on offense while also contributing in the return game.

Marvin Mims WR | DEN
Broncos' Marvin Mims: Minimal production in Week 17
Mims caught three of four targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs.
Mims was unable to have much of an impact on the stat sheet despite seeing four targets against Kansas City. The 23-year-old wideout played 34 of the Broncos' 72 offensive snaps, behind Courtland Sutton (59) and Lil'Jordan Humphrey (43), but ahead of Troy Franklin (27) and Michael Bandy (7). The 2025 campaign has been an underwhelming one for Mims, who secured more than three catches in just three games this season. Through 14 games, the Oklahoma product has recorded just 35 receptions on 48 targets for 312 yards and a touchdown, adding 12 rushes for 78 yards and a score. The Broncos have not used him down the field much this season, capping his upside in Denver's aerial attack. Mims should not be trusted for fantasy purposes as the Broncos host the Chargers in Week 18.

Adam Trautman TE | DEN
Broncos' Adam Trautman: Targeted twice against Kansas City
Trautman caught both of his targets for 24 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs.
Trautman played 52 of the Broncos' 72 offensive snaps Thursday, once again playing the most snaps at tight end. Teammates Evan Engram and Marcedes Lewis played 22 and 15 snaps, respectively. Engram paced the position group in targets (4) as Denver's preferred pass-catching tight end. Meanwhile the 28-year-old Trautman continued to operate as a blocking specialist. The veteran's limited opportunities keep him far off the fantasy radar each week. Next up for the Broncos is a Week 18 matchup against the Chargers.

Evan Engram TE | DEN
Broncos' Evan Engram: Four grabs in win
Engram caught all four of his targets for 21 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs.
Engram continued his role as the Broncos' No. 1 pass-catching tight end, but he was unable to get much going against the Chiefs. The 31-year-old played 22 of Denver's 72 offensive snaps, behind blocking specialist Adam Trautman (52). Engram's limited playing time and inefficient production make him difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. The veteran will look to bounce back with a strong performance Week 18 when the Broncos host the Chargers in the regular season finale.

Aaron Banks G | GB
Packers' Aaron Banks: Downgraded to questionable
Green Bay downgraded Banks (neck) to questionable for Saturday's game versus the Ravens.
Banks didn't have any designation on the Packers' final practice report of the week Thursday, but it's possible he suffered a setback during the day Friday. If he can't suit up in Week 17, Donovan Jennings may have to step in at left guard against a Baltimore defense that's struggled to rush the passer in 2025.

Kevin Dotson G | LAR
Rams' Kevin Dotson: Misses practice Friday
Dotson (ankle) did not participate at practice Friday.
Dotson suffered an ankle sprain in Week 16 at Seattle and was carted off the field, so it's not a big surprise he's not able to practice yet. Unless he makes a remarkable return to practice Saturday, Dotson is trending toward sitting out Monday at Atlanta.
-
Alaric Jackson OT | LAR
Rams' Alaric Jackson: Unable to practice Friday
Jackson (knee) did not participate at practice Friday.
Jackson dealt with an ankle injury during preparations for Week 16 at Seattle, and now it looks like a knee injury is threatening his availability for Week 17. He'll probably have to return to practice in some capacity Saturday to have any chance of playing Monday at Atlanta.
