  • Deonte Banks CB | NYG

    Giants' Deonte Banks: Cleared to play Sunday, could start

    Banks (shoulder) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's Week 17 contest against the Raiders.

    Banks managed a shoulder injury this week and was labeled as limited all three days of practice. However, he's avoided an injury designation and will be able to take the field Sunday. Banks could draw a start at cornerback if Cor'Dale Flott (knee, questionable) is unable to play.

  • Tim Patrick WR | JAC

    Jaguars' Tim Patrick: Ready for Week 17

    Patrick (foot) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Colts, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Patrick was listed as limited in practice both Wednesday and Thursday, but it doesn't appear his foot injury was anything serious. The veteran can be considered on track to handle his usual depth role as the No. 4 wideout in Jacksonville, with all of Brian Thomas, Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington available heading into Sunday's divisional matchup.

  • Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Status in question for Sunday

    Harrison (heel) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest at Cincinnati, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Harrison was listed as limited on all three of Arizona's Week 17 practice reports due to a heel injury, which, according to the wide receiver, feels "solid" and should allow him to play Sunday. His status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but even if he does suit up, it stands to reason he may not be available for much more than the 51 percent snap share he handled this past Sunday against the Falcons.

  • Titans' Jalyn Armour-Davis: Ready for Sunday

    Armour-Davis (Achilles) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Armour-Davis missed three consecutive weeks before the Titans' Week 16 win over the Chiefs, when he was able to play all defensive snaps for the Titans' defense. The cornerback has once again been cleared to play and will maintain a starting spot against New Orleans.

  • Nick Herbig LB | PIT

    Steelers' Nick Herbig: Ready to go Sunday

    Herbig (hamstring) has no injury designation heading into Sunday's contest against the Browns, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Herbig upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice and will play Sunday versus the Browns after missing Week 16 with a hamstring injury. The 24-year-old will be crucial for the front-seven in Week 17 as star T.J. Watt (lung) is out for yet another game. Herbig has 29 tackles (20 solo), including 6.5 sacks, and two pass breakups, including one interception.

  • Maxx Crosby DE | LV

    Raiders' Maxx Crosby: Won't play Sunday

    Crosby (knee) was informed that he'll be ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Crosby suffered a knee injury in Week 4 against the Bears that he has been playing through all season. Since acquiring the injury, the defensive end has logged six games with a 100 percent defensive snap rate and has dodged an injury designation nearly every week. It may not be a coincidence that the 28-year-old's health is being preserved during a matchup that could determine the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft, as the 2-13 Raiders are set to take on the 2-13 Giants.

  • Kyle Pitts TE | ATL

    Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Pops up as limited participant

    Pitts (knee) was limited in practice Friday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Pitts was not listed on Thursday's estimated injury report, but with the Falcons logging on-field work one day later, his limitations may just be maintenance for the knee issue that bothered him before both of the last two games. In any case, the starting tight end's activity level during Saturday's session will be monitored closely. Pitts has broken out in a massive way across his last four regular-season appearances, in which span he's averaged 98.8 receiving yards per game and recorded four touchdowns.

  • Giants' Rakeem Nunez-Roches: Could return Sunday

    Nunez-Roches (ankle/toe) has been deemed questionable for Sunday's Week 17 clash against Las Vegas.

    Nunez-Roches has missed New York's past two games while managing ankle and toe injuries. He logged an LP/DNP/LP practice progression this week and has been given a chance of returning to action Sunday. Nunez-Roches has made five starts across the nine games he's been been healthy enough to play in this season.

  • Malik Willis QB | MIA

    Packers' Malik Willis: In line to start in place of Love

    Willis (right shoulder/illness) is expected to start Saturday against the Ravens after the Packers ruled out Jordan Love (left shoulder/concussion) for that contest.

    Willis himself is listed as questionable for Week 17 action due to a right shoulder injury and an illness, but his status will receive clarity about 90 minutes before Saturday's 8:00 p.m. ET kickoff. In two spot starts for Love last season, Willis went 2-0 while completing 25 of 33 passes for 324 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions and turning 12 carries into 114 yards and another TD. Clayton Tune likely will be elevated from the practice squad to back up Willis this weekend.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Another limited practice

    London (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    London was also listed as limited on Thursday's estimated practice report, meaning Saturday will be his last opportunity to prove himself capable of handling full practice reps ahead of Monday Night Football against Los Angeles. The star wideout returned from a four-game absence versus Arizona in Week 16 but secured just three of eight targets for 27 yards. Tight end Kyle Pitts (knee) was added to Friday's injury report as a limited participant.
