11:59 a.m.: The Philadelphia Eagles made an addition to their injury report this morning, and it could be good news for the New England Patriots’ running game.
#PHIvsNE Status Report update: NT Bennie Logan (knee) is questionable for today's game.

Bennie Logan is the Eagles’ starting nose tackle, and ESPN reported he woke up with a swollen knee. As ProFootballTalk noted, Logan hasn’t missed a game in his three-year NFL career.
11:54 a.m.: Notable update for fantasy football owners. As expected, wide receiver Michael Floyd is active for the Arizona Cardinals, but running back Andre Ellington is not.

11:52 a.m.: Case Keenum suffered a much-publicized concussion two weeks ago, but evidently he has recovered, as he’s the St. Louis Rams’ backup quarterback against the Arizona Cardinals.
The #Rams will have Case Keenum backing up Nick Foles today. That means he cleared @NFL's concussion protocol.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 6, 2015
If Nick Foles struggles — and that’s likely, considering his recent play and the Cardinals’ stout defense — Keenum could see action.
Inactives are out for the 1 p.m. ET games, and you find them all on NFL.com.
11:46 a.m.: Two tight end updates, as Tyler Eifert is confirmed out for the Cincinnati Bengals and Austin Seferian-Jenkins is confirmed in for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
#Bengals inactives 12/6:
CB L. Hall
S G. Iloka
OL Winston
TE Eifert
DT Hardison
DE Clarke
DT Thompson— Cincinnati Bengals (@Bengals) December 6, 2015
TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins makes his much-anticipated return to the lineup. Best set of offensive weapons for Jameis Winston all year.
— Scott Smith (@ScottSBucs) December 6, 2015
11:42 a.m.: Brandon Brooks indeed won’t play for the Texans, meaning the Buffalo Bills’ pass rush will challenge his backup.
Texans G Brandon Brooks, taken to the hospital, is inactive.
— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) December 6, 2015
Texans starting lineup change: RG Oday Aboushi will start in Brooks' place.
— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) December 6, 2015
11:20 a.m.: Bad news for the Houston Texans, who might have lost of their starting offensive linemen just hours before kickoff in Buffalo.
After the Texans arrived at Ralph Wilson Stadium RG Brandon Brooks walked out of dressing room and into back of ambulance. No reason given.
— John McClain (@McClain_on_NFL) December 6, 2015
Brooks has been one of Texans best players. If he can't play they can move RT Derek Newton inside and play Chris Clark at RT.
— John McClain (@McClain_on_NFL) December 6, 2015
.@AlbertBreer reports that #Texans guard Brandon Brooks fell ill and was taken to the hospital. Said he has a history of ulcers.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 6, 2015
9:53 a.m.: Andrew Luck hasn’t played in the Indianapolis Colts’ previous three games, and he’ll be out Sunday, but team owner Jim Irsay expects to see his quarterback on the field soon.
#Colts owner Jim Irsay told me he believes QB Andrew Luck will be back for Week 15 vs. the #Texans. Week 16 vs. #Dolphins at the latest
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 6, 2015
9:36 a.m. ET: It’s make-or-break week for many NFL teams (and fantasy football owners), so all eyes are on the injury reports this morning. One AFC front-runner, the New England Patriots, has some good news, while another, the Cincinnati Bengals, faces bad news, according to reports.
#Patriots WR Danny Amendola (questionable, knee sprain) is expected to play today vs. #Eagles, source said. He missed last week.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 6, 2015
Bengals TE Tyler Eifert is not expected to play today vs. Browns due to neck stinger, per sources.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 6, 2015
The Arizona Cardinals, who own the NFC’s second-best record at 9-2, are banged up on offense, with running back Andre Ellington and wide receiver Michael Floyd nursing injuries. One reportedly will play Sunday against the St. Louis Rams and one will not.
Cardinals WR Michael Floyd, listed as questionable with hamstring injury, will play today vs STL, per source.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 6, 2015
Not only is Cardinals RB Andre Ellington out today, but with short week ahead, Ellington unlikely to go Thursday vs. Vikings, per sources.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 6, 2015
Fantasy football owners in need of a tight end might want to consider Austin Seferian-Jenkins of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Buccaneers TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins is expected to return to action today after missing past nine games with shoulder injury, per sources.
