Taylor Heinicke Jumps Dwayne Haskins Jr. On Depth Chart

Washington Football Team head coach Ron Rivera said that quarterback Taylor Heinicke will start in Week 17 against the Eagles if Alex Smith (calf) cannot play for the third straight game.

Buffalo Bills running back T.J. Yeldon tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday and was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

Antonio Gibson Should Have Sizable Role Against Panthers

Washington Football Team rookie running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is back for Week 16 against the Panthers and should have a sizable role after sitting out the team's last two games with a painful turf-toe injury.

Terry McLaurin Officially Out In Week 16

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin (ankle) is officially out for Week 16 against the Panthers.

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for Week 16 against the Washington Football Team.

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson (neck) has been officially ruled out for Week 16 against the Bengals.
