Eagles TE Zach Ertz does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers, according to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Ertz has not been Ertzian for roughly a calendar year, but his addition is another trusted offensive player for Carson Wentz. Ertz should be a top 15 tight end going forward.

Washington Football Team WR Terry McLaurin is questionable for Monday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to John Keim of ESPN.

Not great news to see. The "good" thing is there are two games following this one Week 13, so there may be options to stash on your bench just in case.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz logged a limited practice session on Thursday.

This is the second consecutive limited practice for Ertz, and all signs point to him being active for Week 13. It would be nice if Ertz could practice in full tomorrow so as to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's contest against Green Bay, but the more likely scenario is a questionable tag, and fantasy gamers not finding out until prior to game time whether or not Ertz will be active. Even if he is active, Ertz may see a lighter workload than usual unless he starts the game hot. Dallas Goedert has put together two excellent games in a row, and will likely see more snaps than Ertz, even if it is for one week only. Ertz is our 20th ranked tight end for Week 13.

The Eagles activated tight end Zach Ertz from injured reserve on Wednesday.

The activation opens up a three-week window where Ertz can practice and eventually return to game action. It remains to be seen whether Ertz will return for Week 13, but the fact that he was trending the right direction last week provides some optimism he will. Dallas Goedert has performed well in Ertz's absence but will take a usage hit whenever Ertz returns.

The Falcons have placed second-year wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus on injured reserve after he left Sunday’s game against the Raiders with a toe injury, the team announced Tuesday afternoon.

Zaccheaus joined Atlanta as an undrafted free agent out of Virginia in 2019. He’s caught 20 passes for 274 yards with one touchdown in 2020.

As a corresponding move, the Falcons have activated Treadwell off the COVID list and signed him to their 53-man roster, the story said. Treadwell previously was on Atlanta’s practice squad after signing with the club as a free agent during the offseason.
