Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (rest) did not practice on Thursday, Jan. 1, and no longer appears on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Evans will be out there on Saturday against the Panthers. Each of the last two weeks, Evans has had 31 yards and a touchdown. We're projecting him as a WR2 option in Week 18. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (shoulder, knee) practiced in full on Thursday, Jan. 1.
| Footballguys view: Mayfield has been battling through multiple injuries, but he's going to be out there on Saturday against the Panthers. The Buccaneers have a chance at the playoffs but need some help and a win in Week 18. |

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (back) practiced in full on Thursday, Jan. 1.
| Footballguys view: A back injury can be tricky to deal with, especially for an incredibly athletic player like Jackson. The Ravens and Steelers are battling for the AFC North title and a playoff berth on Sunday. We've got Jackson as a QB2 with upside on Sunday night. |

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (foot) did not practice on Thursday, Jan. 1.
| Footballguys view: Bills HC Sean McDermott told reporters that Allen is trending in the right direction ahead of Week 18's matchup with the Jets. That was before Wednesday's practice, but now he's a DNP on Thursday. Allen could be ready to play against the Jets, but in a game they should control easily the Bills might choose to shut him down early (if he does play). Stay tuned. |

Carolina Panthers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) no longer appears on the injury report and will play in Week 18 against the Carolina Panthers.
| Footballguys view: Dowdle is ready to go for Saturday's game against the Buccaneers. With a win, the Panthers are in the playoffs. Dowdle is the lead back, but there's going to be split time (as per usual) with Chuba Hubbard. That makes Dowdle more of an RB2/flex play for Fantasy GMs in championship week. |

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (concussion) has cleared the concussion protocol, but QB Clayton Tune will start in Week 18 against the Minnesota Vikings.
| Footballguys view: It's a meaningless game for the Packers on Sunday. They're locked into the no.7 seed on the NFC side of the playoff bracket. Love will be ready for their Wild Card Round game next week. Tune is just a QB3 for Fantasy GMs out there still competing for a championship...which means he won't be in many starting lineups. |

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers said there would be one or two situations he would consider returning for in 2026, and NFL insider Ian Rapoport wonders if the Steelers would be one of them. The experience has been positive, and the team would need a bridge quarterback for a younger player next season.
| Footballguys view: Rodgers says he hasn't yet thought about his future. If the Steelers beat the Ravens in Week 18, they're headed to the playoffs as AFC North champion. He signed a one-year deal with the Steelers, and he may consider staying with the team in 2026 ...if he doesn't retire. The Steelers would be in the market for a quarterback (Malik Willis?) if Rodgers doesn't come back for next year. |

Las Vegas Raiders QB Cam Miller was signed off the practice squad to the active roster of the Miami Dolphins Thursday, Jan. 1.
Link to storyNew Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (lung) will miss the Week 18 finale after a blood clot was detected in his lung. He's expected to make a full recovery.
| Footballguys view: This is a health scare to be sure, but the Saints say they caught this early. Even though he had to build chemistry with two quarterbacks (Spencer Rattler, Tyler Shough) this season, Olave finishes 2025 with career-high totals in targets (156), catches (100), receiving yards (1163), and receiving touchdowns (9). Playing on his fifth-year option in 2026, Olave is in line to get a contract that makes him one of the highest-paid receivers in the league. He's a WR1 for Fantasy GMs in drafts next year. |
