Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) said that he feels he's getting his explosiveness back. "That's definitely the best I've felt in a while. I'm starting to heal up.

However, Rashaad Penny took over the backfield in the […]

Curtis Samuel Held Out Wednesday

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) was sore after the Week 14 loss to the Dallas Cowboys and was held out of practice on Wednesday.

J.D. McKissic Missing From Practice

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic (concussion) missed another practice on Wednesday.

Taylor Heinicke's Elbow Feels Good

Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke (elbow, knee) said his elbow is a bigger issue than his knee. "Definitely the elbow. There's some bruising there, it's tender, hurts a little bit. I went out and practiced today and the elbow didn't hurt when I was throwing, so it's all around good news," Heinicke said. The […]

Graham Gano Out Sick Wednesday

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (illness) missed practice on Wednesday with a non-COVID-19-related illness. Gano has two more days to get back on the practice field.

George Kittle Misses Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) missed practice on Wednesday due to knee soreness.

Jalen Hurts Dealing With High Ankle Sprain

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) is dealing with a high ankle sprain, which can be tricky. It explains why he's splitting repetitions with Gardner Minshew this week in practice.

Joe Burrow Won't Practice Wednesday

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that quarterback Joe Burrow (finger) will not practice on Wednesday in order to rest his right pinkie finger, but there isn't any concern about his performance in games.

Houston Texans head coach David Culley said that running back Rex Burkhead (hip) will not be able to play in Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

T.J. Hockenson Not Practicing To Begin The Week

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (hand) will not practice on Wednesday. It's not a good sign for his Week 15 availability against the Arizona Cardinals after he missed the Week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos. Fantasy managers that have been rolling with Hockenson all year long will likely need a replacement for the […]

No Practice For D'Andre Swift Wednesday

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (shoulder) will not practice on Wednesday.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that both quarterbacks Jalen Hurts (ankle) and Gardner Minshew will get repetitions in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday, but Hurts is "trending upward."

Lamar Jackson Won't Practice Wednesday

Updating a previous report, Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) won't practice on Wednesday.

Tony Pollard Will Practice Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) will practice on Wednesday for the first time since tearing his left plantar fascia on Dec. 2 against the New Orleans Saints.

Josh Allen Limited Wednesday With Sprained Foot

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (foot) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday due to the sprained foot that he suffered in the Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Lamar Jackson Listed As Day-To-Day

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) will be day-to-day with the sprained ankle that he suffered in the Week 14 loss to the Cleveland Browns.

Jason Peters' Week 15 Status In Question

Chicago Bears left tackle Jason Peters (ankle) suffered an ankle injury in the Week 14 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night, and the veteran seemed to know right away that he wasn't going to return to the game. Head coach Matt Nagy isn't ruling out a switch at tackle, perhaps moving Larry […]

Justin Fields Has A Bruised Left Hand

Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Justin Fields (hand) suffered a bruise on his left non-throwing hand in the Week 14 loss to the Green Bay Packers, but head coach Matt Nagy said Fields should be fine. Despite facing plenty of pressure from the Packers defense, Fields held his own and made good decisions with the football […]

Kendall Fuller Lands On COVID-19 List

The Washington Football Team placed cornerback Kendall Fuller and defensive tackle Tim Settle on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday.
