Whom should you start? Whom should you sit? To help you set your fantasy football lineups and avoid starting an offensive player who won't be in the lineup, we'll post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their official inactives lists. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.
Official Sunday inactives should begin coming in approximately 90 minutes before the scheduled kickoff times: around 11:30 a.m. ET for the early games and 2:30 p.m. ET for the late-afternoon games.
Refresh often for the latest information.
4 p.m. ET games
Emari Demercado, RB, ARI: Back -- OUT/IR
Impact: James Conner and Trey Benson will likely handle all the RB touches.
Dalton Kincaid, TE, BUF: Knee -- Active
Impact: He returns for the first time since Week 10, but don't expect miracles.
Quintin Morris, TE, BUF: Shoulder -- Active
Impact: Dawson Knox will still be in the mix for TE targets.
Josh Downs, WR, IND: Shoulder -- Active
Impact: He should be right back in the No. 1 WR mix for the Colts.
Ashton Dulin, WR, IND: Ankle -- OUT
Impact: Adonai Mitchell might jump into No. 3 WR duties this week.
Will Dissly, TE, LAC: Shoulder -- OUT
Impact: Stone Smartt becomes an intriguing last-minute pivot.
Ladd McConkey, WR, LAC: Knee -- Active
Impact: He may well play some today, but he may not finish. Tread carefully.
George Pickens, WR, PIT: Hamstring -- OUT
Impact: Don't expect a lot of passing from the Steelers as a result of Pickens' absence.
Bucky Irving, RB, TB: Back -- Active
Impact: He will play, but Rachaad White could still get more touches. Sean Tucker may also split some of the workload.
Sterling Shepard, WR, TB: Foot -- Active
Impact: You may have to temper expectations for another huge week from Jalen McMillan.
Sunday night game
Luke Musgrave, TE, GB: Ankle -- OUT/IR
Impact: Just noting here that he's back at practice, but with an eye on the postseason roster.
Kenneth Walker III, RB, SEA: Calf -- Doubtful
Impact: Zach Charbonnet is doing just fine while Walker heals up. No need to rush him back.
1 p.m. ET games
Diontae Johnson, WR, BAL: Team decision -- Suspension
Impact: Rashod Bateman (knee) is ready to play. Johnson's refusal to go in for Bateman when he got hurt in Week 13 is the reason he's suspended.
Raheem Blackshear, RB, CAR: Chest -- Inactive
Impact: Expect Chuba Hubbard to be getting all the handoffs.
David Njoku, TE, CLE: Hamstring -- Inactive
Impact: Jordan Akins is the TE starter for the Browns with Njoku sitting out.
Cedric Tillman, WR, CLE: Concussion -- OUT
Impact: Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore will get the bulk of WR targets at least until Tillman can be cleared to play.
Dustin Hopkins, K, CLE: Team decision -- Inactive
Impact: Amid Hopkins' struggles, Riley Patterson was promoted from the practice squad.
Evan Engram, TE, JAX: Shoulder -- OUT/IR
Impact: Surgery has ended his season. Brenton Strange is a huge downgrade.
Harrison Butker, K, KC: Knee -- Active
Impact: Butker was activated from IR. Matthew Wright was waived.
Dee Eskridge, WR, MIA: Knee -- OUT
Impact: Meanwhile, Jaylen Waddle (hamstring) was removed from the injury report and will play.
Grant DuBose, WR, MIA: Shoulder -- Active
Impact: He might get some of the looks left behind by Odell Beckham Jr. getting waived.
Derek Carr, QB, NO: Concussion -- OUT
Impact: Jake Haener gets the start. It's a clear downgrade for the Saints' passing game.
Bub Means, WR, NO: Ankle -- OUT/IR
Impact: He practiced a bit this week but is not yet set to return. Kevin Austin Jr.and Cedrick Wilson Jr. should both continue to see targets.
Drew Lock, QB, NYG: Heel -- OUT
Impact: Tommy DeVito will start. Lock, who had been in a walking boot, will be the emergency No 3 QB.
Breece Hall, RB, NYJ: Knee -- Active
Impact: He will play and handle lead-back duties, at least at the outset of things.
Kene Nwangwu, RB, NYJ: Hand -- OUT/IR
Impact: A broken hand ends the season for the Jets' primary return man. Downgrade the team's D/ST.
Tyler Conklin, TE, NYJ: Personal -- OUT
Impact: Conklin didn't travel with the team as he and his wife await the birth of their child. Jeremy Ruckert will start for the Jets, but you should probably look elsewhere.
Tony Pollard, RB, TEN: Ankle -- Active
Impact: Pollard is expected to see his usual workload Sunday.
Zane Gonzalez, K, WAS: Foot -- Inactive
Impact: Greg Joseph will step in since Gonzalez can't go.
Noah Brown, WR, WAS: Kidney -- OUT/IR
Impact: Expect Dyami Brown to see increased involvement.
Jamison Crowder, WR, WAS: Calf -- Active
Impact: He was activated from IR, but he may not be quite ready to significantly contribute.
