Butler is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Butler was listed as questionable ahead of this past Monday's game against the Falcons and ended up starting and logging a 69 percent snap share in that contest. Ahead of Week 16 action, Butler wasn't on the Raiders' injury report, so he's slated to handle defensive tackle duties once again. In 14 games, Butler has recorded 57 tackles and 3.5 sacks.

Rotowire
Butler (concussion) practiced in full Saturday but is questionable for Monday's Week 15 tilt against Atlanta, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Butler has shown progress throughout the week, going from non-participation in practice Thursday to a limited session Friday to full participation Saturday. The veteran defensive tackle is nonetheless questionable for Monday Night Football, and it's unclear if he's cleared the NFL's concussion protocol. Butler has already posted career-high regular-season totals with 635 defensive snaps and 51 tackles (including 2.5 sacks) while adding a defensed pass over 13 games.

If he can return to practice Friday or Saturday, he may have a chance to suit up Monday against the Falcons.

Butler posted a sack during Sunday's 17-10 win over the Eagles.
Butler, 25, only has 16 tackles on the year, but he's racked up 5.5 sacks in 10 games. Because he does most of his damage in opposing backfields, Butler's value in IDP formats cannot be understated, but his role in New England does have a limited scope, which does impact his fantasy ceiling.

Rotowire
Butler recorded three solo tackles, two sacks and one defended pass during Sunday's 43-0 win over the Dolphins.
Butler tied for the team lead in sacks with Chase Winovich on Sunday. He played 37 defensive snaps (60 percent), a sharp uptick from his Week 1 workload of 17 snaps on defense (25 percent). If Butler is able to continue impressing in his rotational role, he could conceivably earn increased opportunities going forward.
