Kenny McIntosh RB | SEA
Seahawks' Kenny McIntosh: Potential for more opportunities
McIntosh could handle additional reps in Sunday's game versus the Cardinals because Kenneth Walker (ankle/calf) has been ruled out.
Zach Charbonnet is expected to be the primary back, much like he was in Weeks 2 and 3 when Walker was inactive. During those games, McIntosh played 11 offensive snaps and carried the ball three times for 11 yards. Thus, McIntosh still shouldn't be started in most formats, but he's worth keeping an eye on in deeper leagues in case Walker's injury lingers.

Talanoa Hufanga SAF | SF
49ers' Talanoa Hufanga: Activated off IR
The 49ers activated Hufanga (wrist) from injured reserve Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Hufanga was sidelined for the 49ers' last seven games due to a right wrist injury. He was a limited practice participant all week, and while he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Hufanga's activation from IR indicates he should be available to play.

49ers' Nick Bosa: Ruled out for Week 14
Bosa (oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Bosa was unable to practice this week due to a left oblique injury, and he is set to miss his third straight game. Given the 49ers' have a short turnaround before their next game against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 12, it's possible Bosa could be sidelined for a fourth game. Robert Beal and Yetur Gross-Matos will continue to see more defensive snaps due to Bosa's injury.

C.J. Mosley ILB | NYJ
Jets' C.J. Mosley: Placed on injured reserve
The Jets placed Mosley (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
Mosley had missed the Jets' last five regular-season games due to a herniated disk in his neck. With the Jets unlikely to make the postseason, Mosley will likely end the 2024 campaign on IR. He appeared in just four regular-season games and logged 17 tackles (13 solo) over that span. Jamien Sherwood will start at middle linebacker for the rest of the 2024 regular season due to Mosley's injury.

D.J. Davidson DT | NYG
Giants' D.J. Davidson: Placed on IR due to shoulder injury
The Giants placed Davidson (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Davidson injured his shoulder during the Giants' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cowboys. While he was able to practice in a limited capacity all week, he was deemed doubtful for Sunday's game against the Saints. Davidson's shoulder injury appears serious enough to warrant a stint on IR, and he'll have to be sidelined for at least the next four regular-season games. That makes Week 18 against the Eagles on Sunday, Jan. 5 the earliest he could return, but it's possible that Davidson's 2024 campaign could end while on IR as the Giants have already been eliminated from postseason contention.

Tim Boyle QB | NYG
Tim Boyle: Let go by Big Blue
The Giants waived Boyle on Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Boyle was signed to the Giants' 53-man roster Nov. 23 to serve as the No. 3 quarterback behind Tommy DeVito and Drew Lock. Assuming he clears waivers, Boyle will look to catch on with a team in need of a practice squad quarterback, though he could opt to remain with the Giants.

Bradley Chubb OLB | MIA
Dolphins' Bradley Chubb: Won't play Sunday vs. Gang Green
Chubb (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Chubb was designated to return from the reserve/PUP list Monday, and he was able to participate in practice all week in a limited capacity. He wasn't able to progress enough to play Sunday, but his next chance to make his 2024 regular-season debut will be Week 15 against Houston on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Joe Tryon-Shoyinka LB | TB
Buccaneers' Joe Tryon-Shoyinka: Won't play vs. Las Vegas
Tryon-Shoyinka (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Despite logging a full practice Friday, Tryon-Shoyinka will be sidelined for a second straight game due to a high-ankle sprain he suffered in Week 12 against the Giants. Anthony Nelson and Chris Braswell are the top candidates to start at outside linebacker Sunday opposite Yaya Diaby due to Tryon-Shoyinka's injury.

JJ Russell ILB | TB
Buccaneers' J.J. Russell: Ruled out for Week 14
Russell (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Las Vegas, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Russell and outside corner Josh Hayes both popped up on Friday's injury report due to hamstring injuries, and both players will be sidelined Sunday. With K.J. Britt (ankle) also ruled out for Sunday's contest, Antonio Grier is set to start at inside linebacker alongside Lavonte David.

Josh Hayes DB | TB
Buccaneers' Josh Hayes: Won't play vs. Raiders
Hayes (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Hayes popped up on Friday's injury report as a limited practice participant due to a hamstring injury, and the issue is severe enough for him to be sidelined for Sunday's contest. He's mostly served on special teams this season, but Hayes' absence means Dallis Flowers will be the primary backup at outside corner Sunday behind starters Jamel Dean and Zyon McCollum.
