    Jaguars' Foyesade Oluokun: Leading tackler in loss

    Oluokun recorded eight tackles (six solo) and a pass deflection during the Jaguars' loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

    Oluokun had a solid outing despite the loss as he led the team in tackles once again. He has now totaled 87 tackles (54 solo), with 1.0 sacks, across 11 games this season and will look to add to those totals during the team's Week 17 matchup versus the Titans.

  • 49ers' Spencer Burford: Dealing with calf issue

    Burford (calf) is awaiting an MRI on a calf injury, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Burford picked up a calf injury in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins and he's now awaiting an MRI to determine the extent of the injury. Burford stepped in at left tackle against Miami when Jaylon Moore (quadriceps) was forced to exit the game. Moore, Trent Williams (ankle), and Aaron Banks (knee) all suffered season-ending injuries in the contest.

  • Michael Carter RB | ARI

    Cardinals' Michael Carter: Moves back to practice squad

    Carter reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Carter made his season debut Sunday in Carolina and ended the contest as Arizona's lead runner after James Conner suffered a knee injury. Overall, Carter played 25 of 70 offensive snaps in the overtime loss, recording five carries for 18 yards and a team-high five catches (on five targets) for 30 yards. DeeJay Dallas also got in the act with a one-yard TD reception on 16 plays. There hasn't been a definitive update on Conner's health, but with Emari Demercado (back) on injured reserve and Trey Benson (ankle) out Week 16, Carter could be a regular out of the Cardinals backfield this coming Sunday at the Rams.

    Patriots' Marte Mapu: Picks off Allen in Week 16

    Mapu tallied seven tackles (three solo), two pass defenses (including one interception) and one forced fumble during the Patriots' 24-21 loss to the Bills.

    Mapu registered his first interception of the regular season Sunday when he picked off a deep ball from Josh Allen intended for Keon Coleman midway through the second quarter. Mapu nearly logged his second interception on the Bills' next offensive drive when he broke up a pass from Allen intended for Dalton Kincaid. Mapu was a healthy inactive for the Patriots' last two games, but he played 42 defensive snaps due to the absences of Jabril Peppers (hamstring) and Marcus Jones (hip). Mapu will look to carry his momentum into the Patriots' Week 17 clash against the Chargers on Saturday, Dec. 28.

  • Fred Warner MLB | SF

    49ers' Fred Warner: Leading tackler in loss

    Warner totaled 11 tackles (six solo) during the 49ers' loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Warner had a productive outing despite the loss as he was the team's leading tackler once again and has now racked up double-digit stops in four games this season. The 28-year-old has recorded 117 tackles (68 solo) so far this season, just 20 shy of his career-high total set back in 2021, which he'll have the chance to surpass during the team's final two games of the season

  • Kyle Dugger S | NE

    Patriots' Kyle Dugger: Eight tackles against Buffalo

    Dugger tallied eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Bills.

    Dugger entered Sunday's game with a questionable tag due to a lingering ankle injury, but that didn't slow him down as he played every single defensive snap and led the Patriots' defense in tackling. Dugger has played every defensive snap in four of New England's last five games, and over that span he has accumulated 35 tackles (21 solo) and two pass defenses.

  • Aaron Banks G | SF

    49ers' Aaron Banks: Suffers season-ending injury

    Banks (knee) suffered a season-ending MCL injury in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.

    Banks sustained the knee injury in the second half of the contest, bringing his season to a premature end. Fellow offensive linemen Jaylon Moore (quadriceps) and Trent Williams (ankle) were both lost for the season as well over the weekend. Nick Zakelj replaced Banks at left guard against Miami and will likely operate in that role in Week 17 against the Lions on Monday Night Football.

  • Jaylon Moore OT | SF

    49ers' Jaylon Moore: Done for season

    Moore (quadriceps) is done for remainder of the 2024 regular season, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.

    Moore suffered a quadriceps injury in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, which will now sideline him for the team's final two games of the 2024 campaign. Spencer Burford (calf) replaced Moore at left tackle versus Miami, but his status is currently uncertain for Week 17 versus the Lions on Monday Night Football.

  • Bears' Gervon Dexter: Limited on Monday's estimation

    Dexter (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report.

    Dexter was injured in Week 14 against San Francisco and has missed Chicago's last two contests. He's trending in the right direction after logging a limited practice last Friday following a pair of DNPs. Dexter has been a bright spot for the Bears' defense this season, logging 44 tackles (23 solo), including 5.0 sacks, 16 QB hits and a pair of fumble recoveries. Chris Williams, Byron Cowart and Zacch Pickens paced the Bears in defensive snaps at defensive tackle against the Lions this past Sunday.

  • 49ers' Trent Williams: Out for season

    49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Williams (ankle) is out for the season, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Williams has been sidelined since Week 12 with an ankle injury, and he'll now not return for the final two games of the season for San Francisco. The star left tackle's recovery has been slower than expected according to earlier reports from Shanahan, and the team's elimination from the playoffs likely meant they weren't gonna rush him back. Jaylon Moore is set to finish out the season in place of Williams as he has in the past four weeks.
