C.J. Uzomah Misses First Practice Of The Week

Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (hip, knee) missed the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. Uzomah did play over 90% of the offensive snaps in the Week 17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, so his injury probably isn't all that serious. However, with the Bengals potentially resting most of their starters […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Misses Another Practice

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) missed his second straight practice of the week on Wednesday. Edwards-Helaire has yet to practice or play since suffering his shoulder injury in Week 16, so he's trending toward missing a second straight game in the Week 18 regular season finale this Saturday against the Denver Broncos. […]

David Johnson Back At Practice Wednesday

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (quadriceps) was activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday and wasn't listed on the initial injury report for Week 18.

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that rookie quarterback Justin Fields (ankle) will practice in full on Wednesday and will start on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings in the Week 18 regular season finale.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Cam Akers (Achilles) was "full speed, flying around" at practice on Wednesday and is looking forward to seeing Akers make his season debut in Week 18 against the San Francisco 49ers.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams said he doesn't expect to play the entire game on Sunday against the Detroit Lions in the Week 18 regular season finale.

Cowboys Put Micah Parsons On COVID-19 List

Dallas Cowboys rookie linebacker Micah Parsons is being placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. If Parsons tested positive for the virus and is vaccinated, he could return to play before Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles if he clears the league's COVID protocols, but it's unlikely with such a short turnaround.

Antonio Brown's Camp Claims He Was Too Injured To Play

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown's (ankle) friends were worried about the pain he was experiencing and encouraged him to see a top surgeon outside of the Buccaneers organization.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) remains on the team's injury report and was listed as limited in Tuesday's practice session.

Miles Sanders Misses Practice Tuesday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hand) did not take part in practice on Tuesday.

Noah Fant On The Week 18 Injury Report

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (quadriceps) finds himself on the Week 18 injury report after putting in a limited practice on Tuesday.

Denver Broncos running backs Javonte Williams (knee) and Melvin Gordon III (hip, thumb) were both limited to begin the practice week on Tuesday.
