Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson (groin) told reporters he intends to play in Week 13 versus the San Francisco 49ers after he missed Week 12 against the Buffalo Bills. Johnson said the reason for his absence was the result of popping some scar tissue in his groin from an injury he suffered last season.
Link to storyMinnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson (hamstring) was activated from the Reserve/Injured list on Tuesday, Nov. 28.
Footballguys view: The Vikings are on bye in Week 13, but this move has been anticipated for some time. He's been practicing for the past two weeks, and Jefferson should be out there in Week 14. |

Free-agent TE Joel Wilson was signed to the practice squad of the Green Bay Packers on Tuesday, Nov. 28.
Link to storyPittsburgh Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (ankle) could be limited in practice early in the week.
Footballguys view: The Steelers' offense looks much better now that they've moved on from OC Matt Canada, and Pickett's play will be a big reason they push for the postseason. Let's see what the young quarterback can do during the week of practice as the team prepares for a home game against the Cardinals in Week 13. |
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor (thumb) suffered a thumb injury in Week 12 that will require further evaluation and put his status in doubt.
Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs need to keep an eye on this situation and grab Zack Moss off the waiver wire if he's out there. Taylor did play about half of the game in Week 12 against the Buccaneers with this injury. However, a thumb injury could cause a multi-week injury and we're near the beginning of the fantasy playoffs. |

Detroit Lions QB Hendon Hooker (knee) may participate in practice this week, according to head coach Dan Campbell. Hooker is currently on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list.
Footballguys view: Good news for the young quarterback here, and we love him in deep dynasty formats. Hooker was injured late in his college career at Tennessee, and even though he had first-round talent he fell to the third round of the 2023 NFL draft. We're unlikely to see him this season, but by clearing him to practice the Lions will get a preview of what he could be in the pros. The upside to be a franchise quarterback is there with Hooker, and he could be the successor to Jared Goff one day. |
Minnesota Vikings QB Joshua Dobbs tossed four interceptions in Week 12 against the Chicago Bears, and head coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday, Nov. 27, that he considered replacing Dobbs with QB Nick Mullens before the team's lone touchdown drive. 'It started to get to the point where I was thinking about what would give us a spark,' O'Connell said. He added that the team will 'take a look at everything' in regards to quarterback after the team's bye.
Footballguys view: The Vikings have now lost two games in a row. They're still in the playoff chase, but they need to get things right after their Week 13 bye. Dobbs will be their starter in Week 14 as they travel to play the Raiders, but he cannot afford to have another game like the one he had on Monday night. |

Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (ribs) underwent X-rays on the injured ribs he suffered during the Week 12 game but they were negative, according to head coach Brandon Staley.
Footballguys view: Johnston was knocked out of the Chargers' Week 12 game in the third quarter and did not return. The negative X-rays are a positive sign of his future playing status, but rib injuries always come down to pain tolerance. He's not having a great rookie season, and the first-round pick has been disappointing for Chargers fans (and some Fantasy GMs) out there. |
Free-agent LB Shaquille Leonard (Colts) is scheduled to visit the Philadelphia Eagles later this week.
