Here are some of the top news items and what they mean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PLAYERS RULED OUT<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Players out Sunday include Mike Evans, Matthew Stafford, Daniel Jones, Evan Engram, AJ Green, Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor, Jordan Howard, Paul Richardson, Rashaad Penny, Greg Olsen, Adam Humphries, Taylor Gabriel, DJ Chark, Hunter Renfrow, Gerald Everett, Vance McDonald, JuJu.<\/p>&mdash; Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamSchefter\/status\/1206074640667496448?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mike Evans and Rashaad Penny both suffered season-ending injuries in Week 14. However, Evans is still not on IR, so maybe there\u2019s a small chance we see him again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eli Manning will get at least one more start for the Giants, but he\u2019ll be without his top tight end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Jordan Howard missing another game, the Eagles could give Boston Scott a long look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It appears the dream of seeing A.J. Green this season is all but dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>WILL FULLER (HOU) SET TO RETURN<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Texans optimistic that Will Fuller, who is listed as questionable for Sunday due to a hamstring injury, will be able to play against the Titans, per sources. If there are no pre-game setbacks, Fuller likely to go.<\/p>&mdash; Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamSchefter\/status\/1206074764726611968?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fuller is a difference-maker when he\u2019s on the field. If he\u2019s healthy, the Texans have a much better shot of locking down first place in the AFC South. The problem is Fuller could limp off at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DERRICK HENRY (TEN) GOOD TO GO<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Titans\u2019 RB Derrick Henry, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a hamstring injury, will play vs. the Texans in the big AFC South showdown, per source.<\/p>&mdash; Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamSchefter\/status\/1206074830870761473?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Henry didn\u2019t practice this week, which for most players would mean an inactive designation. But Tennessee\u2019s game this week is about as close to a playoff game as it could be without actually being one, so Henry will give it a shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>JAMES CONNER (PIT) TO MAKE LONG-AWAITED RETURN<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Steelers\u2019 RB James Conner, listed as questionable for Sunday night with a shoulder injury, is expected to play against Buffalo, per sources.<\/p>&mdash; Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamSchefter\/status\/1206074902173945856?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Conner\u2019s injury came all the way back in Week 8. He tried to make a return in Week 11 but ended up on the shelf for another three weeks. Hopefully this time he\u2019s fully healthy. Pittsburgh will need him in a game that could end up being an elimination game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>NOAH FANT (DEN) WILL PLAY <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Broncos?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Broncos<\/a> rookie TE Noah Fant, who had 113 yards and a TD before injuring his foot vs the Texans last week, was listed as questionable (foot \/ hip) but he\u2019s good to go vs the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/chiefs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#chiefs<\/a> per source.<\/p>&mdash; James Palmer (@JamesPalmerTV) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JamesPalmerTV\/status\/1206080541566652416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fant will help Drew Lock on his quest to start his career with three wins.

The team did promote RB Wes Hills from the practice squad just in case.<\/p>&mdash; Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapSheet\/status\/1206138576422879232?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Promoting a running back from the practice squad is obviously not a good sign for Scarbrough. The Lions have shuffled running backs all season, so it wouldn\u2019t be a shock if they did it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>JULIAN EDELMAN (NE) NOT IN THE CLEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Patriots?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Patriots<\/a> WR Julian Edelman, who had a knee injury added to his ailing shoulder on the report this week, is optimistic about playing today, but the team wants to see him workout in the AM to be sure, I\u2019m told.<\/p>&mdash; Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapSheet\/status\/1206139582942793728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Much has been made of Tom Brady\u2019s lack of weapons. Without Edelman, things would be much more difficult. Of course, the Patriots play the 1-12 Bengals today, so maybe they don\u2019t need Edelman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>JOSH JACOBS (OAK) EXPECTED TO RETURN<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Raiders?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Raiders<\/a> RB Josh Jacobs (shoulder) was clear earlier in the week on Twitter that he plans to play today despite a broken shoulder plate, and that is the case. He\u2019s good to go. Meanwhile, LT Trent Brown (pectoral) is a game-time decision.<\/p>&mdash; Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapSheet\/status\/1206140086187937792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Jacobs missed Week 14 and that is apparently the only game his injured shoulder will cost him. It\u2019s a big day for the Raiders, who will be playing their final game in Oakland. It could be an equally big day for Jacobs, who faces a Jacksonville defense that has seen five running backs go over 100 rushing yards in their last five games.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>FRANK CLARK (KC) SHOULD PLAY<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/chiefs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#chiefs<\/a> pass rusher Frank Clark who is questionable (illness and shoulder) had to see a specialist for his stomach issue this week and missed Wednesday and Thursday.
