Collier (knee) was not activated off injured reserve Saturday.

Collier's practice window was opened Dec. 3, so if the Cardinals do not activate the defensive tackle before Dec. 24, he will need to remain on injured reserve for the remainder of the 2025 season. The 30-year-old has played just 34 defensive snaps through two games this season, accumulating one solo tackle in the playing time.

The Broncos activated Powers (bicep) from injured reserve Saturday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

Powers has been activated ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, but he is still listed as questionable for the game. The decision to require the offensive guard to take up a roster spot means he is likely able to suit up for the game. If, for some reason the 29-year-old is unable to go, Alex Palczewski will likely continue to start at left guard.

Butler (knee) will not be activated off injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Patrick Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Butler has yet to play in a game this regular season, and that will not change in Sunday's game. The cornerback will likely play a depth role in the Cowboys' secondary once he is healthy, but he will have to look toward Week 17 for a potential 2025 debut.

Taylor (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Taylor was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and was able to log consecutive full practices to close out the week. Despite the performances, the defensive end will not be activated to play against the Raiders. With the Texans currently in the AFC playoff picture as the No. 7 seed, the team may be taking injuries slowly as it heads towards the postseason.

Kinnard (neck) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Kinnard finished the Packers' Week 15 loss to the Broncos at right tackle after Zach Tom (back/knee) succumbed to injury. The offensive lineman is all set to suit up for Saturday night's game, while Tom is not, making it very likely that the former will start at right tackle for the key divisional matchup.

Tom (back/knee) is listed as inactive for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Tom was unable to practice at all this week, and the offensive tackle's attempt to return for a key divisional matchup seems to have been in vain. The starting right tackle will likely be Darian Kinnard (neck), who is listed as active for Saturday night's game.

Edmunds (groin) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Packers.

Edmunds was relegated to injured reserve in Week 12, and Saturday night's divisional clash will mark the linebacker's first start since he suffered the groin injury. The 27-year-old has logged 89 tackles (46 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and nine passes defensed for four interceptions through 10 games this season. The defensive captain's return will make an already formidable Bears defense even stronger as they battle to split the 2025 series with the Packers.

Williams (knee) is listed as inactive for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Williams was unable to log a practice this week, falling short of the participation likely required for the safety to suit up. In his stead, Zayne Anderson will likely start at strong safety. Anderson took over after Williams' early exit in Week 15, logging three tackles (one solo) through 20 defensive snaps.

Cox (groin) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Cox is set to see his first game action since being moved to injured reserve Sept. 11. The defensive end will return just in time to reinforce a Packers defensive line that is reeling at the loss of Micah Parsons (ACL). Cox could receive some rotational snaps at defensive end behind Rashan Gary, Kingsley Enagbare, Arron Mosby and Lukas Van Ness.

Enagbare (illness) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Enagbare was unable to practice Thursday due to a sudden illness. Still, the defensive end has evidently been able to overcome it in time to participate in Saturday night's pivotal divisional matchup. The starting edge rusher has played 55 percent of defensive snaps or more in consecutive contests, and he may be leaned on even more Saturday night due to the absence of Micah Parsons (ACL).
