Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) took full practice reps all week. The Jaguars have nothing to play for, seeing-wise, but HC Doug Marrone has indicated that he isn’t planning to rest any of his starters, so Bortles should be out there on Sunday. Whether he plays a full game is another matter, but Jacksonville seems determined to play to win in Week 17.

Patriots QB Tom Brady (achilles, left shoulder) was removed from the injury report Friday after taking limited practice reps Thursday. No worries here. Brady will be out there for a great matchup against the Jets.

Texans QB Taylor Heinicke (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday.

Broncos QB Paxton Lynch (ankle) took full practice reps all week. Lynch will get the start this week.

Dolphins QB Matt Moore (foot, doubtful) took limited practice reps all week and is doubtful for Week 17.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. The Panthers are still in the running to win the NFC South, so Newton should play most of the snaps on Sunday. They need a Saints’ loss to win the division, so if New Orleans jumps out to a big lead, the team could elect to rest Newton for a quarter or two.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday. He’s not expected to play on Sunday. The Steelers could get home-field advantage throughout the playoffs with a win and a Patriots’ loss, but the Jets are unlikely to put up much of a fight. Landry Jones will likely get the start.

Giants QB Geno Smith (not injury related) missed practice Friday.

Steelers RB LeVeon Bell (not injury related) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday. He’s not expected to play on Sunday.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Joe Mixon is questionable with an ankle injury. If he plays, Bernard isn’t much of a start, but if Mixon is out, he could see a big workload once again. He has averaged 21.3 touches in the last three games.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (knee, out) and Mike Gillislee (knee, out) missed practice all week and are out for Week 17. Dion Lewis is once again a great start. James White is questionable and would chip in if he’s able to play. Brandon Bolden will also be active.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder, ribs) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Crowell was removed from the injury report so he’ll play against the Steelers, who are resting their stars.

Browns RB Matthew Dayes (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17.

Chargers RB Austin Ekeler (hand) took full practice reps all week. Ekeler didn’t see any snaps last week, so his role is up in the air right now.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 17. Forte will probably play through the knee injury again this week.

Chargers RB Melvin Gordon (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17. The Chargers need a win, so Gordon will likely give it a go in a great matchup against the Raiders.

Colts RB Frank Gore (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Gore will be out there against the Texans.

Chiefs RB Akeem Hunt (shoulder, questionable) took full practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Browns RB Duke Johnson (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Packers RB Aaron Jones (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. Jamaal Williams will likely see a big workload against the Lions, but the Packer offense will be without several offensive stars this week.

Jets RB Akeem Judd (ankle, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (not injury related) missed practice Friday. This looks like a rest day for McCoy. He’ll be out there against the Dolphins.

Vikings RB Jerick McKinnon (shoulder) took full practice reps all week. McKinnon was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go to face the Bears this week.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17. We’d be surprised if the Bengals pushed him to play on a bad ankle in a meaningless game, but stranger things have happened. He’d be a serviceable start if he’s able to play. If he sits, Giovani Bernard would be a solid RB2 against the Ravens.

Titans RB DeMarco Murray (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. Derrick Henry should see a big workload with Murray sidelined. The Jaguars are better against the pass than they are the run, and have nothing to play for, though Jacksonville has indicated that it doesn’t plan to rest any starters against the Titans. Henry is a RB1 this week.

Cardinals RB Elijhaa Penny (hand, groin, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Redskins RB Samaje Perine (groin, shoulder) took full practice reps all week. Perine ended up with 20 touches last week after being listed as questionable. He should see a similar workload this week. He was removed from the injury report so he’s not in danger of missing a great matchup with the Giants.

Cowboys RB Rod Smith (back, questionable) missed practice again Friday and is questionable for Week 17.

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. Stewart will play against the Falcons.

Texans RB Jordan Todman (shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Browns RB Dan Vitale (groin, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Chiefs RB Charcandrick West (illness, questionable) missed practice again Friday and is questionable for Week 17. West should be able to play against the Broncos and may see a big workload if the team rests Kareem Hunt.

Patriots RB James White (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17. If he can play, White will chip in as a receiver as the Patriots try to get through the game without Mike Gillislee and Rex Burkhead.

Dolphins RB Damien Williams (shoulder, doubtful) took limited practice reps all week and is doubtful for Week 17. Kenyan Drake is once again a very good start in a great matchup against the Bills.

Cardinals RB Kerwynn Williams (quadricep, ribs, back, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17. He has three injuries but has been able to play on Sundays. We’re expecting him to play again in Week 17.

Packers WR Davante Adams (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Packers WR Geronimo Allison (illness, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17. Allison should be in for big snaps with both Davante Adams and Jordy Nelson out this week.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (illness) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Anderson will play against the Patriots. He’s not a bad start though the Patriots will be very focused on limiting his looks given the current state of the Jets’ offense.

Cowboys WR Cole Beasley (illness, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Bills WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee) took limited practice reps again Friday. Benjamin will be out there against the Dolphins.

Steelers WR Antonio Brown (calf, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. JuJu Smith-Schuster and Martavis Bryant will pick up the slack against the Browns. Landry Jones will be under center, so this isn’t as great of a spot as it otherwise would be if Ben Roethlisberger were playing.

Cardinals WR John Brown (toe) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. He caught a touchdown last week and should play again after being removed from the injury report.

Cowboys WR Dez Bryant (knee) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. It looks like Bryant will play against the Eagles.

Cowboys WR Brice Butler (foot) took full practice reps all week.

Browns WR Sammie Coates (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Jaguars WR Keelan Cole (quadricep) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Cole is a candidate to sit out this week, but he was removed from the injury report so it looks like he’ll play against the Titans.

Saints WR Brandon Coleman (neck) took limited practice reps again Friday.

Raiders WR Amari Cooper (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Cooper will play against Casey Hayward and the Chargers.

Redskins WR Robert Davis (concussion, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17.

Titans WR Eric Decker (hamstring) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week.

Bengals WR Alex Erickson (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. Fitzgerald will be out there against the Seahawks.

Panthers WR Devin Funchess (shoulder) took full practice reps again Friday. No worries here. He’s a pretty good start against the Falcons.

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (ankle, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17. DeSean Jackson is questionable, so Godwin’s Sneaky Start status depends on Jackson’s availability.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (back) took limited practice reps all week. Goodwin was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go for a matchup with the Rams’ second-stringers.

Redskins WR Ryan Grant (ankle) took full practice reps all week.

Redskins WR Maurice Harris (back, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill (not injury related, out) missed practice Friday and is out for Week 17.

Patriots WR Chris Hogan (shoulder, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (calf, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. Will Fuller is the only playable receiver for the Texans.

Jaguars WR Allen Hurns (ankle) took limited practice reps all week.

Buccaneers WR DeSean Jackson (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17. If he’s out, Chris Godwin would be a good start again this week, but it looks like Jackson will play in a meaningless game (for the Bucs).

Falcons WR Julio Jones (ankle, thumb) took limited practice reps again Friday. Jones is good to go to face the Panthers.

Jets WR Jermaine Kearse (ankle) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week. It looks like Kearse is good to go to face the Patriots.

Giants WR Tavarres King (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (knee, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17. Kupp is expected to sit despite the return to practice on Friday.

Broncos WR Cody Latimer (thigh, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Jaguars WR Marqise Lee (ankle, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Giants WR Roger Lewis (ankle) took limited practice reps all week. Lewis has been targeted at least 10 times in each of the last three games and the Giants are without Sterling Shepard and Evan Engram this week. Lewis could see another 10+ targets against Washington.

Ravens WR Jeremy Maclin (knee, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 17.

Colts WR Donte Moncrief (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Jets WR JoJo Natson (shoulder) took full practice reps all week.

Packers WR Jordy Nelson (shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17.

Raiders WR Cordarrelle Patterson (hip) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Redskins WR Brian Quick (illness) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Broncos WR Emmanuel Sanders (ankle, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Panthers WR Russell Shepard (shoulder) took full practice reps again Friday.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard (neck, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. Roger Lewis seems like the best play in the Giants’ passing game this week.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

49ers WR Trent Taylor (shoulder) took limited practice reps all week.

Saints WR Michael Thomas (hamstring) took limited practice reps all week. He’s expected to play against the Bucs. He tends to play better on the road, which offsets any concerns about the injury.

Bills WR Deonte Thompson (back, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17.

Ravens WR Mike Wallace (knee, questionable) took full practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 17. Wallace should play through the knee injury this week.

Cardinals WR Chad Williams (illness) took full practice reps all week.

Cowboys WR Terrance Williams (not injury related) missed practice Friday.

Buccaneers TE Cameron Brate (hip, knee, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17. It looks like Brate will play against the Saints. He’s typically been very productive as the starter with Jameis Winston at quarterback.

49ers TE Garrett Celek (knee, rib) took limited practice reps all week.

Chiefs TE Orson Charles (knee) took full practice reps all week.

Bills TE Charles Clay (knee) took limited practice reps all week. Clay is a solid start against his old team in what is a must-win for the Bills.

Raiders TE Jared Cook (wrist) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Cook should be out there against the Chargers.

Chargers TE Jeff Cumberland (illness) took full practice reps again Friday.

Lions TE Eric Ebron (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Ebron is one of the hottest tight ends in the league and he faces a Packer defense that is No. 23 in TE aFPA. It’s a good spot for him.

Giants TE Evan Engram (rib, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. Rhett Ellison likely picks up most of Engram’s snaps and targets.

Chargers TE Antonio Gates (illness) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Gates was a great Sneaky Start last week and we like him again in a solid matchup against the Raiders.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (knee) missed practice again Thursday. He’ll be out there against the Cardinals.

Dolphins TE MarQueis Gray (hip, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17.

Saints TE Garrett Griffin (foot) took limited practice reps all week.

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (illness) was removed from the injury report Friday. No worries here.

Bengals TE Ryan Hewitt (knee) took full practice reps again Friday.

Saints TE Josh Hill (shoulder) took limited practice reps all week.

Saints TE Michael Hoomanawanui (concussion, out) missed practice again Friday and is out for Week 17.

49ers TE George Kittle (ankle) took full practice reps all week. Kittle’s snaps are on the rise again so he’s a Sneaky Start against the Rams.

Jaguars TE Marcedes Lewis (ankle) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice Thursday.

Cardinals TE Troy Niklas (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 17.

Panthers TE Greg Olsen (foot) took full practice reps all week. Olsen is a full go against the Falcons, though there is some concern about how his foot will respond to playing on the turf in Atlanta.

Packers TE Richard Rodgers (shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17. Lance Kendricks should play big minutes against the Lions.

Vikings TE Kyle Rudolph (ankle) took limited practice reps all week. Rudolph will be fine to face the Bears.

Jets TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins (ribs, foot, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 17.

Bears TE Adam Shaheen (chest, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17.

Falcons TE Levine Toilolo (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Colts TE Jason Vander Laan (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 17.

Seahawks TE Luke Willson (ankle, questionable) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps and is questionable for Week 17.

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) took full practice reps all week. Bortles is our No. 12 quarterback this week in a great matchup against the 49ers. He has racked up 903 yards and 7 touchdowns in his last three starts.

Browns QB DeShone Kizer (ribs) took full practice reps again Friday. Kizer will be fine for a tough matchup against the Bears.

Broncos QB Paxton Lynch (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16.

Dolphins QB Matt Moore (foot, doubtful) took limited practice reps all week and is doubtful for Week 16.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. After throwing for 242 yards and 4 touchdowns last week against the Packers, Newton has another good matchup this week against the Bucs.

Bills QB Nathan Peterman (concussion) took full practice reps all week.

Texans QB Tom Savage (concussion) missed practice again Friday.

Titans QB Brandon Weeden (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday.

Texans QB T.J. Yates (knee) took full practice reps again Friday.

Patriots RB Brandon Bolden (groin, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16.

49ers RB Matt Breida (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16. Look for Mike Gillislee to get another chance to tote the ball. Gillislee has been on the shelf since Week 9, but his snaps really started to dry up after he fumbled in Week 6. Dion Lewis will serve as the lead back, but Gillislee could see 8-10 carries in a great matchup against the Bills, who are last in the league in RB aFPA.

Falcons RB Tevin Coleman (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday. Coleman has cleared the concussion protocol and was removed from the injury report, so he’ll play. His presence puts a dent in Devonta Freeman’s upside.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Crowell was removed from the injury report so he should be fine to play against the Bears.

Redskins RB LeShun Daniels (hand, out) missed practice Friday and is out for Week 16.

Chargers RB Austin Ekeler (hand, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16. It looks like Ekeler may be able to play in Week 16.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (quadricep) took full practice reps all week. Fournette was removed from the injury report so he’s a full go for a nice matchup with the 49ers.

Bengals RB Brian Hill (ankle) took full practice reps again Friday.

Jaguars RB Chris Ivory (back, elbow) took limited practice reps all week.

Browns RB Duke Johnson (shoulder) took full practice reps again Friday. Johnson will be fine to face the Bears.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (knee) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday. We’ll monitor his status over the weekend, but right now it looks like he’ll be able to play through the injury.

Jets RB Elijah McGuire (illness, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon (concussion) took full practice reps all week. Mixon was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go. The Bengals don’t have much to play for, so his workload is a bit up in the air.

Redskins RB Samaje Perine (groin, questionable) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is questionable for Week 16. Perine looks very iffy to play after injuring his groin in practice this week. LeShun Daniels was placed on injured reserve, so Kapri Bibbs could see a lot of touches in a bad matchup against the Broncos.

Lions RB Theo Riddick (wrist) took full practice reps all week. Riddick will be fine to play in a good matchup against the Bengals. Unfortunately for Riddick, the Bengals will get LB Vontaze Burfict back on Sunday.

Patriots RB James White (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. White should be able to play through the injury and may see an uptick in passing game usage with Rex Burkhead out.

Dolphins RB Damien Williams (shoulder, doubtful) took limited practice reps all week and is doubtful for Week 16. Kenyan Drake’s workload looks safe. He has averaged 26.0 touches for 149 total yards and 0.67 touchdowns in the last three games.

Cardinals RB Kerwynn Williams (quadricep, ribs, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16. Arizona plays late on Sunday so owners hoping to use Williams will need to be on their toes. If he isn’t able to play, look for Elijhaa Penny to carry the rushing load with D.J. Foster handling passing down duties against the Giants. If Williams does play, he’s a decent flex option in a great matchup against the Giants.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (hamstring, hip) took full practice reps again Friday. Anderson should play, but he’s likely to see a lot of Casey Hayward in Week 16.

Bears WR Josh Bellamy (foot) was removed from the injury report Friday after taking full practice reps Thursday.

Bills WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 16. Benjamin should play, but he’s not a good fantasy play against the Patriots.

Steelers WR Antonio Brown (calf) missed practice again Friday. Ben Roethlisberger has targeted Brown on almost 31% of his pass attempts, which represents 11.6 targets per game. Both JuJu Smith-Schuster and Martavis Bryant have averaged around 5–6 targets per game, but both should see 7–10 against the Texans in Week 16.

Cardinals WR John Brown (toe, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Cowboys WR Brice Butler (foot, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Raiders WR Amari Cooper (ankle) missed practice Thursday but returned to practice on Friday. Cooper is now on track to play on Monday night. He’s not a good fantasy start at this point.

Redskins WR Jamison Crowder (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. Crowder should play but given a very tough matchup against Chris Harris (Denver’s slot corner), he’s not a good start this week.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. This is a typical practice schedule for Fitz. He’s a low-end WR1 in a great matchup against the Giants.

Panthers WR Devin Funchess (shoulder, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16. Funchess should play in a nice matchup against the Bucs, but he flopped in a great matchup against the Packers last week.

Saints WR Ted Ginn (rib) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Ginn was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go to face the Falcons.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (back) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. He’s been hot, but has a very tough matchup against the Jaguars this week.

Redskins WR Ryan Grant (ankle) took full practice reps all week.

Redskins WR Maurice Harris (back, questionable) missed practice again Friday and is questionable for Week 16.

Browns WR Matt Hazel (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Patriots WR Chris Hogan (shoulder, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. Hogan practiced last week and didn’t play so he’s not out of the woods. The Patriots play early on Sunday. If he returns, it negatively impacts the upside of Brandin Cooks.

Bills WR Andre Holmes (neck, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (toe) took limited practice reps again Friday. Hopkins should be able to play through the toe injury again this week.

Jaguars WR Allen Hurns (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. It looks like Hurns may be able to return. With Marqise Lee out, Hurns could contribute right away.

Buccaneers WR DeSean Jackson (ankle, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16. With Jackson out, Chris Godwin will start in his place. When Mike Evans was out in Week 10, Godwin caught 5-of-10 targets for 68 yards against the Jets. He’s a Sneaky Start in a pretty good matchup against the Panthers.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (ankle, thumb) took limited practice reps again Friday. Jones is “good to go” to play against the Saints.

Giants WR Tavarres King (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16.

Broncos WR Cody Latimer (thigh, questionable) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is questionable for Week 16.

Jaguars WR Marqise Lee (ankle, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16. With Lee out, Dede Westbrook and Keelan Cole are the top two receivers in Jacksonville.

Texans WR Braxton Miller (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16. Parker was able to return on Friday so he should be fine to face the Chiefs. If he were to sit, Kenny Stills would see a bump in targets.

Raiders WR Cordarrelle Patterson (hip) took limited practice reps Thursday.

Jaguars WR Larry Pinkard (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16.

49ers WR Aldrick Robinson (concussion, wrist) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Giants WR Travis Rudolph (hamstring) took full practice reps all week.

Broncos WR Emmanuel Sanders (ankle, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16. Beat writer Mike Klis said that Sanders is on the “doubtful side of questionable” for Week 16. If he’s out, Cody Latimer should see a bump in targets.

Falcons WR Mohamed Sanu (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Sanu should be able to play through the knee injury.

Panthers WR Russell Shepard (shoulder, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 16.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Cardinals WR Chad Williams (illness, questionable) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is questionable for Week 16.

Chiefs WR Albert Wilson (hamstring, shoulder) took full practice reps all week.

Buccaneers TE Cameron Brate (hip, knee, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. Brate finished the game on Monday night so he should be able to play in Week 16, though owners should confirm his availability on Sunday. With O.J. Howard on injured reserve, Brate is a Sneaky Start. In 26 games with Jameis Winston over the last two seasons, Brate has averaged 3.7 catches for 45 yards and 0.54 touchdowns per game.

49ers TE Garrett Celek (knee, rib, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16.

Chiefs TE Orson Charles (knee) took full practice reps Friday.

Bills TE Charles Clay (knee) took limited practice reps all week. Clay caught 5 passes for 68 yards last week. The Patriots are a tough matchup for opposing tight ends.

Raiders TE Jared Cook (wrist) took limited practice reps Thursday. Cook should be fine to play on Monday night.

Giants TE Rhett Ellison (groin, finger) took full practice reps all week.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (knee) missed practice Thursday after full reps Wednesday. Graham looks like a full go against Dallas.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (illness) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Saints TE Garrett Griffin (foot, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16.

Bengals TE Ryan Hewitt (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Saints TE Michael Hoomanawanui (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16.

Steelers TE Vance McDonald (shoulder) took full practice reps again Friday.

Bills TE Nick O'Leary (back, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 16.

Panthers TE Greg Olsen (foot) took full practice reps all week. Olsen will be fine for a nice matchup with the Bucs. He’s back to being a top five play at his position.

Bears TE Adam Shaheen (chest, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. Shaheen will be a decent dart throw if he’s able to play against the Browns.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee) took full practice reps again Friday.

Seahawks TE Nick Vannett (shoulder, questionable) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday and is questionable for Week 16.

Raiders TE Clive Walford (concussion, neck) missed practice Thursday.

Rams K Greg Zuerlein (back) was removed from the injury report Friday. The Rams have signed Sam Ficken to replace Zuerlein, who was placed on injured reserve.

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) took full practice reps again Thursday. Bortles is our No. 12 quarterback this week in a great matchup against the 49ers. He has racked up 903 yards and 7 touchdowns in his last three starts.

Browns QB DeShone Kizer (ribs) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking full practice reps. This looks like a midweek downgrade so we’ll see what Kizer is able to do on Friday. The full reps are encouraging.

Broncos QB Paxton Lynch (ankle) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Dolphins QB Matt Moore (foot) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. After throwing for 242 yards and 4 touchdowns last week against the Packers, Newton has another good matchup this week against the Bucs.

Bills QB Nathan Peterman (concussion) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Texans QB Tom Savage (concussion) missed practice Thursday.

Titans QB Brandon Weeden (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday.

Texans QB T.J. Yates (knee) took full practice reps Thursday.

Patriots RB Brandon Bolden (groin) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

49ers RB Matt Breida (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (knee) missed practice again Thursday. If Burkhead sits, look for Mike Gillislee to get another chance to tote the ball. Gillislee has been on the shelf since Week 9, but his snaps really started to dry up after he fumbled in Week 6. Dion Lewis will serve as the lead back, but Gillislee could see 8-10 carries in a great matchup against the Bills, who are last in the league in RB aFPA.

Falcons RB Tevin Coleman (concussion) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Coleman has cleared the concussion protocol per HC Dan Quinn, so it looks like he’ll play. If Coleman misses again, Devonta Freeman would be a great start against the Saints.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Crowell should be fine to play against the Bears.

Chargers RB Austin Ekeler (hand) took limited practice reps again Thursday. It looks like Ekeler may be able to play in Week 16 after all.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee) missed practice again Thursday.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (quadricep) took full practice reps again Thursday. Fournette will play, per HC Doug Marrone.

Colts RB Frank Gore (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. This is typical for Gore.

Bengals RB Brian Hill (ankle) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Jaguars RB Chris Ivory (back, elbow) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Browns RB Duke Johnson (shoulder) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Johnson should be fine to face the Bears.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. McCoy should be able to play through the knee injury.

Jets RB Elijah McGuire (illness) missed practice again Thursday.

Vikings RB Jerick McKinnon (shoulder) took full practice reps again Thursday. McKinnon has averaged 68 total yards and 0.17 touchdowns (with 3.7 receptions per game) in his last six games.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon (concussion) took full practice reps again Thursday. The full practices indicate that Mixon may return this week. If he does, Giovani Bernard will likely return to his backup duties. Stay tuned.

Redskins RB Samaje Perine (groin) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps. Perine now looks questionable to face the Broncos. Kapri Bibbs and LeShun Daniels are the next running backs up, but it’s a bad matchup against the Broncos.

Lions RB Theo Riddick (wrist) took full practice reps again Thursday. Riddick should be fine to play in a great matchup against the Bengals.

Patriots RB James White (ankle) took limited practice reps again Thursday. White’s receiving role may increase with Rex Burkhead likely out for Week 16.

Dolphins RB Damien Williams (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. If Williams returns this week, it will put a dent in Kenyan Drake’s upside. Drake has averaged 26.0 touches for 149 total yards and 0.67 touchdowns in the last three games. Drake should remain the RB1, but he’ll lose some touches to Williams.

Cardinals RB Kerwynn Williams (quadricep, ribs) missed practice again Thursday. If Williams isn’t able to play, look for Elijjaa Penny to carry the rushing load with D.J. Foster handling passing down duties against the Giants.

Packers WR Davante Adams (concussion, out) missed practice again Thursday. He’s out for Week 16. This makes sense since the Packers have been eliminated from the playoff hunt. Geronimo Allison will play more snaps in his absence.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (hamstring, hip) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Anderson should play, but he’s likely to see a lot of Casey Hayward in Week 16.

Bears WR Josh Bellamy (foot) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Bills WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Benjamin should play, but he’s not a good fantasy play against the Patriots.

Steelers WR Antonio Brown (calf) missed practice Thursday. Ben Roethlisberger has targeted Brown on almost 31% of his pass attempts, which represents 11.6 targets per game. Both JuJu Smith-Schuster and Martavis Bryant have averaged around 5–6 targets per game, but both should see 7–10 against the Texans in Week 16.

Cardinals WR John Brown (toe) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Cowboys WR Brice Butler (foot) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Redskins WR Jamison Crowder (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Crowder should be able to play through the injury, though he has a very tough matchup against Chris Harris and the Broncos.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. This is a typical practice schedule for Fitz. He’s a low-end WR1 in a great matchup against the Giants.

Panthers WR Devin Funchess (shoulder) missed practice again Thursday. Funchess should play in a nice matchup against the Bucs, but he flopped in a great matchup against the Packers last week.

Saints WR Ted Ginn (rib) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Ginn may be able to return this week after missing Week 15 due to bruised ribs.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (back, not injury related) did not practice Wednesday. He returned to practice on Friday. He’s been hot, but has a very tough matchup against the Jaguars this week.

Redskins WR Ryan Grant (ankle) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Redskins WR Maurice Harris (back) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday.

Browns WR Matt Hazel (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Patriots WR Chris Hogan (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Hogan practiced last week and didn’t play so he’s not out of the woods. The Patriots play early on Sunday.

Bills WR Andre Holmes (neck) missed practice again Thursday.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (toe) took limited practice reps Thursday. Hopkins should be fine to play through the toe injury again.

Jaguars WR Allen Hurns (ankle) took limited practice reps again Thursday. It looks like Hurns may be able to return. With Marqise Lee very iffy, Hurns could contribute right away.

Buccaneers WR DeSean Jackson (ankle) missed practice again Thursday. Jackson looks pretty iffy for Week 16. If he’s out, Chris Godwin and Adam Humphries would see a bump.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (ankle, thumb) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Jones is expected to play against the Saints.

Giants WR Tavarres King (concussion) missed practice again Thursday.

Broncos WR Cody Latimer (thigh) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Latimer could see extra usage if Emmanuel Sanders can’t play.

Jaguars WR Marqise Lee (ankle) missed practice again Thursday. Lee is not expected to play through a high-ankle sprain.

Ravens WR Jeremy Maclin (knee, doubtful) missed practice again Thursday. It looks like Maclin will sit against the Colts. Chris Moore, Breshad Perriman and Michael Campanaro will pick up most of his snaps.

Texans WR Braxton Miller (concussion) took full practice reps Thursday.

Colts WR Donte Moncrief (ankle, out) missed practice again Thursday.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (ankle) missed practice again Thursday. Parker missed time earlier in the year with an ankle injury, so he may have re-injured it. If he sits, Kenny Stills should see a bump in targets.

Jaguars WR Larry Pinkard (concussion) missed practice again Thursday.

49ers WR Aldrick Robinson (concussion, wrist) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Giants WR Travis Rudolph (hamstring) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Broncos WR Emmanuel Sanders (ankle) missed practice again Thursday. Sanders may not be able to play against the Redskins.

Chiefs WR Albert Wilson (hamstring, shoulder) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Vikings WR Jarius Wright (foot) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Buccaneers TE Cameron Brate (hip, knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Brate finished the game on Monday night so he should be able to play in Week 16. With O.J. Howard on injured reserve, Brate is a Sneaky Start. In 26 games with Jameis Winston over the last two seasons, Brate has averaged 3.7 catches for 45 yards and 0.54 touchdowns per game.

49ers TE Garrett Celek (knee, rib) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Celek has gone over 60 yards with a touchdown in each of his last two games. The Jaguars are pretty stingy against the tight end position, however.

Bills TE Charles Clay (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Clay caught 5 passes for 68 yards last week. The Patriots are a tough matchup for opposing tight ends.

Colts TE Darrell Daniels (hamstring) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Giants TE Rhett Ellison (groin, finger) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (knee) practiced fully Wednesday. Graham looks like a full go against Dallas.

Saints TE Josh Hill (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Bears TE Adam Shaheen (chest) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Crowell should be fine to play against the Bears.

Dolphins RB Damien Williams (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. If Williams returns this week, it will put a dent in Kenyan Drake’s upside. Drake has averaged 26.0 touches for 149 total yards and 0.67 touchdowns in the last three games. Drake should remain the RB1, but he’ll lose some touches to Williams, if he’s healthy enough to play.

Cardinals RB Kerwynn Williams (quadricep, ribs) did not practice Wednesday. If Williams isn’t able to play, look for Elijhaa Penny to carry the load with D.J. Foster handling passing down duties against the Giants.

Packers WR Davante Adams (concussion) did not practice Wednesday. Adams is unlikely to play since this is his second concussion of the year and the Packers have been eliminated from the playoff hunt. Geronimo Allison will play more snaps in his absence.
