The final week of the 2025 NFL regular season is finally here. There are two games on Saturday and a full slate of 14 games the following afternoon and evening. 

Because it’s the final week of the season, there is more to detail than usual when it comes to injury reporting. Teams that have either clinched the playoffs or locked in their draft positioning will often rest key players for the last game of the year, and this year appears to be no different.

With that and more in mind, in the space below, we’ll dive into the final injury reports across the league and detail who is in, out, and whose status is up in the air.

Panthers at Buccaneers (Saturday)

Panthers

Robert RochellCBConcussionOut
Claudin CherelusLBCalf/AnkleOut
Krys BarnesILBBackQuestionable
Tershawn WhartonDTHamstringQuestionable
Robert HuntGBicepsQuestionable

Buccaneers

Jamel DeanCBShoulderOut
Anthony NelsonLBKneeOut
Calijah KanceyDTPectoralQuestionable

The Panthers have some issues to contend with defensively, especially if Wharton is out in addition to Cherelus. Hunt’s potential absence would hurt the running game as well. 

Dean’s absence could affect Tampa’s efforts to cover Tetairoa McMillan. Kancey could be on the verge of a return from his pectoral injury after upgrading to a full practice on Thursday.

Seahawks at 49ers (Saturday)

Charles CrossTHamstringOut

Josh JonesG/TAnkle/KneeQuestionable

49ers

Ricky PearsallWRKnee/AnkleQuestionable
Keion WhiteDEKneeQuestionable

Cross’ absence will affect the protection in front of Sam Darnold, while Bryant potentially missing the game would affect the coverage on the back end of the defense.

George Kittle seems on the verge of a return for San Francisco. Pearsall played last week despite his injuries. White is one of San Francisco’s top pass rushers in the wake of all the injuries the Niners have been dealing with and his potential absence could be a blow on that front.

Saints at Falcons (-3.5)

B.J. Hill DE Ankle Questionable

The Browns will be down a pair of star rookies on Sunday, and both of their top tight ends as well. 

Cincinnati is missing a bunch of depth pieces here and could be without Hill as well, who only got in a limited practice on Friday after not practicing earlier in the week. 

Colts at Texans

Colts

Sauce Gardner CB Calf Out
Will MalloryTELungOut
Anthony RichardsonQBEyeOut
Daniel Scott S Knee Out

Texans

Indianapolis will be starting Riley Leonard in place of Philip Rivers, who isn’t injured but whose services are no longer needed with the Colts eliminated from the playoffs. Gardner’s absence will be felt against Nico Collins on the outside. 

Titans at Jaguars

Jaguars

Patrick Mekari OT Back Out
Jalen McLeod LB Ankle Out

Tennessee will be down a few of Cam Ward’s key targets here, as well as two of its top pass rushers and potentially one of its key pieces on the back end of the defense. 

The Jaguars are mostly healthy but Mekari’s offense could be felt along the offensive interior. 

Packers at Vikings

Packers

Donovan Jennings G/T Throat Out
Nick NiemannLBPectoralOut
John WilliamsGBackOut
Savion WilliamsWRFoot/IllnessOut

Malik Willis QB Shoulder/Hamstring Questionable

Vikings

T.J. Hockenson TE Shoulder Out
Aaron JonesRBHipOut
Myles PriceWRAnkleOut
Gavin BartholomewTEBackOut
Dwight McGlothern CB Hip Questionable

Neither Jordan Love nor Josh Jacobs has an injury status for Green Bay, but Love is not expected to play. We don’t yet know whether Willis will start in his place but if he does, he’ll be without a top offensive lineman and one of his key receivers. 

J.J. McCarthy is off the injury report for the Vikings but don’t have his starting tight end or running back here. 

Cowboys at Giants

Cowboys

TJ BassG Knee Out

Wan’Dale RobinsonWRRibOut
Rakeem Nunez-RochesDLAnkle/ToeOut
Jalin Hyatt WR Illness Questionable

Dallas will be without each of its top two running backs here, though Mafah could return from IR and split work with Jaydon Blue. The Cowboys will also be down starters at cornerback and linebacker thanks to concussions. 

The Giants are down a pair of starters in the secondary, as well as two of Jaxon Dart’s top options in the passing game. 

Jets at Bills

Terrel Bernard LB Calf Out
DaQuan JonesDTCalfOut
Jordan PoyerFSHamstringOut
Joey BosaDEHamstringQuestionable
Dalton KincaidTEKneeQuestionable
Jordan Phillips DT Ankle Questionable

The Jets could be without their top two running backs here if Hall has to miss the game. They’ll also be down a pass rusher and a pair of tight ends and could be without their center. 

The Bills took Josh Allen off the injury report, but we don’t yet know if he’ll actually play. They will be down three key defenders and could be without two more players up front. Kincaid missed last week and has been playing through injuries all year. 

Lions at Bears

Bears

Joe Tryon-Shoyinka DE Concussion Out
Jaquan BriskerSAFIllnessQuestionable
Nick McCloudCBIllnessQuestionable
Rome OdunzeWRFootQuestionable
Ozzy Trapilo OT Knee/Quad Questionable

The Lions are eliminated from the playoffs, and their entire offensive line is banged up entering this game. They also may not have Amon-Ra St. Brown, who has been battling injuries in recent weeks. 

The Bears are mostly healthy, though Odunze still seems unlikely to go considering he has just one limited practice under his belt. Trapilo’s potential absence could be important at tackle. 

Chargers at Broncos

Analysis to come.

Jerry Tillery DL Personal Questionable

Raiders

Kansas City will again be down one of its best offensive lineman and could be without another if Moore can’t go. Worthy didn’t practice all week. Karlaftis and Pacheco were limited throughout the week. 

Cardinals at Rams

Cardinals

Evan Brown OL Personal Out
Josh Sweat OLB Ankle/Knee Questionable

Rams

The Cardinals are pretty healthy but Sweat’s potential absence would obviously affect their pass rush.

Patriots

Harold Landry III LB Knee Out
Robert SpillaneLBAnkleOut
Khyiris TongaDTFootOut
Jared WilsonGConcussionOut
Jack WestoverTEAnkleQuestionable
Charles Woods CB Foot Questionable

Fitzpatrick’s absence will be felt on the back end of the defense. Mike McDaniel said that players who don’t practice are unlikely to play, so that applies to Achane. The Dolphins could also be without a pair of starting offensive lineman, their best linebacker, a pass rusher, their kicker and then their No. 1 wide receiver. 

The Patriots are missing a few key defenders here but Milton Williams and Will Campbell are off the injury report after upgrading to full practices late in the week. Demario Douglas and Kayshon Boutte will be in action as well. 

Commanders at Eagles
TeamPlayerPositionInjuryStatus

Commanders

Eagles

Jalen Carter DT HipOut
Nakobe DeanLBHamstringOut
Marcus EppsSAFConcussionOut
Dallas GoedertTEKneeOut
Lane JohnsonOTFootOut
Jaelan Phillips LB Ankle Out

Philadelphia can still be the No. 2 or 3 seed in the NFC but is still holding several key players out of this game against Washington. The front seven on defense is particularly impacted but obviously the offensive line is much weaker without Johnson and Goedert’s absence could be felt in the passing game as well. 

Ravens at Steelers
TeamPlayerPositionInjuryStatus

Ravens

Rashod Bateman WR Illness Questionable
Taven BryanDTKneeQuestionable
Marlon Humphrey CB Illness DNP

Steelers

N/A

Neither Bateman nor Humphrey practiced on Friday, which isn’t the best sign, and Bateman didn’t practice at all during the week. 

T.J. Watt is off the injury report and will play for Pittsburgh, he said.Â
