Gonzalez exited Week 4’s contest against the Cowboys with a shoulder injury and didn’t return to the game. We don’t yet know the exact nature of his injury or the severity of it, but according to Schefter, Gonzalez is seeking a second opinion on his injury. Gonzalez earned Defensive Player of the Month honors last weekend, and stood tall against stout group of receivers through his first three games. The loss of the promising young rookie is one of two blows the Patriots were dealt on Sunday, with Matthew Judon (biceps) also out indefinitely.

Walker Jr. was backpedaling into coverage, came up hobbling, and asked for a substitute. He walked off the field with tears in his eyes and immediately got hugs from his teammates, which is likely not a good sign for his return this week. Tyrel Dodson will replace him in the starting lineup, but it could be a big loss for Miami over the middle of the field.

Robinson didn’t miss a drive after exiting with a leg injury on the Commanders’ first play of the game. The third-year back suffered what appeared to be a nasty leg/ankle injury after a defender rolled up on him. After a short trip to the bench and then the locker room, Robinson was back out on the ensuing drive and immediately took a carry for a seven-yard gain.

On his first carry of the game, Robinson had his leg/ankle rolled up on by the defender, where it appeared trapped for a brief moment. After being down for several minutes, Robinson was able to get up and leave under his own power before leaving for the locker room. It seems unlikely he would return in this one.

Seibert has missed the last two games due to a hip injury but will be back kicking for the Commanders in Sunday’s game against the Cowboys. Seibert has been one of the most valuable players on Washington’s roster this season, converting 25-of-27 field goals while going a perfect 22-for-22 on his extra points. He should have plenty of opportunities in Sunday’s game against the Cowboys porous defense.

There are no major surprises here as Fuller could not make it back from a concussion he suffered in Week 10. 2023 second-round pick Cam Smith should see more snaps in his absence. The big names for Miami are the ones that are not here as both Alec Ingold and Terron Armstead will be active, which should be a big boost for De’von Achane and the running game.

Gonzalez had been listed as questionable earlier in the week, but the Patriots always felt like he was trending toward playing. After doing a pre-game workout, he was deemed good to go which is a big help with the Patriots set to take on Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle today.

Raimann still has not practiced since injuring his knee in practice a couple Wednesdays ago. His Week 13 status is probably up in the air at this point. The rest of this list is the usual inactives for Indianapolis, with three repeats and third quarterback Ehlinger joining Land — who had played in 10 of 11 games so far for the Colts this year despite just one tackle.

No real surprises here. K.J. Osborn continues to be inactive despite putting together some solid stretches for the Vikings in previous seasons.

Arnold will miss his first game of the season with a groin injury. He got in a full practice on Friday and will probably trend towards playing on Thanksgiving. Emmanuel Moseley (pectoral) is playing off a questionable tag. Everyone else on the list is inactive as a healthy scratch.

Lewis will make his first appearance since injuring his elbow in Week 4 against the Steelers. His addition should be a boon for a Colts front seven that has struggled to pressure the passer in recent weeks. The Colts declared QB Sam Ehlinger, WR Anthony Gould, S Darren Hall, DE Isaiah Land, TE Will Mallory, and LT Bernhard Raimann inactive against the Lions.
