The Steelers are signing Johnson to their practice squad, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson most recently had been on Tampa Bay's practice squad before being cut Dec. 15. He's familiar with the Steelers organization, having been with the team last year and playing in three games, catching his only target for nine yards. Johnson's signing comes in the wake of DK Metcalf being suspended by the NFL for two games following an altercation with a fan this past Sunday. Johnson will provide organizational depth at wideout but isn't likely to garner a major role on game days.

Sampson (hand) is in line to practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Browns will release their first Week 17 practice report later Wednesday, when it will be known whether Sampson was a limited or full participant. Sampson was unable to practice in any fashion last week before sitting out this past Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills, but if the rookie running back is able to move past the hand injury this week, he could be primed to handle a lead role out of the Cleveland backfield. Quinshon Judkins (ankle/fibula) underwent season-ending surgery and was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, leaving Sampson, Trayveon Williams and Raheim Sanders as the available backs on Cleveland's 53-man roster.

Njoku (knee) isn't in line to practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Njoku hasn't played in either of the Browns' last two games while managing the knee injury, and his continued absence from practice to kick off Week 17 prep doesn't bode well for his chances of playing Sunday against the Steelers. The Browns will see if Njoku is able to do anything on the field Thursday and Friday before deciding on his status for the weekend. If Njoku ends up missing another game, rookie Harold Fannin would continue to be locked into a high-volume role at tight end, and more snaps would be available for blocking specialists Blake Whiteheart and Brenden Bates.

Alie-Cox caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Monday's 48-27 loss to the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Alie-Cox continued his depth role at tight end Monday, playing just 13 of the Colts' 60 offensive snaps behind rookie Tyler Warren (53). The veteran's two grabs were his first catches since Week 12, bring him to seven receptions for 75 yards on the season. Barring an injury to Warren, Alie-Cox remains far off the fantasy radar as the Colts prepare to host the Jaguars in Week 17.

Abdullah caught his lone target for four yards in Monday's 48-27 loss to the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Abdullah failed to record a single rushing attempt in the contest while playing just four of the Colts' 60 offensive snaps. With Jonathan Taylor handling the vast majority of snaps at running back, Abdullah and teammate Tyler Goodson are left to handle the few remaining opportunities in the Colts' backfield. The veteran cannot be trusted for fantasy purposes in a Week 17 matchup against the Jaguars.

Goodson rushed three times for nine yards in Monday's 48-27 loss to the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Goodson's three carries Monday were his first rushing attempts since Week 10. In 10 appearances, the 25-year-old running back has recorded just eight rushes for 21 yards, adding two catches on three targets for eight yards. Barring an injury to Jonathan Taylor down the stretch, Goodson will remain far off the fantasy radar in a Week 17 matchup against the Jaguars.

Sills failed to reel in his lone target in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Sills played 32 of the Falcons' 77 offensive snaps Sunday, behind both Darnell Mooney (54) and Drake London (53). Atlanta's No. 3 wideout followed up his career-best effort in Week 15 with a catchless performance in Week 16, his ninth game without a grab in 15 appearances. Sills remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Rams.

Mooney caught both of his targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Mooney played 54 of the Falcons' 77 offensive snaps Sunday, the most of any Atlanta wide receiver in the contest. Despite leading the the receiving corps in snaps, the veteran wideout continued his streak of underwhelming performances. In 13 appearances, Mooney has recorded just 27 catches for 388 yards and a touchdown. The 28-year-old will remain difficult to trust for significant fantasy production heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Rams.

Oliver caught two of three targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Oliver's three targets Sunday matched a season high set in Week 5. The veteran tight end played 32 of the Vikings' 61 offensive snaps, while starter T.J. Hockenson was on the field for 46 snaps. In 13 appearances this season, Oliver has recorded just 12 catches for 123 yards and four touchdowns. Though his touchdown mark is a career high for the San Jose State product, he hasn't been involved enough to be trusted as a fantasy asset behind Hockenson. Oliver remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Lions.

Nailor failed to secure either of his two targets in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Nailor was a complete nonfactor Sunday despite playing 62 percent of the Vikings' offensive snaps as the team's No. 3 wide receiver. Minnesota's offense has struggled with J.J. McCarthy (hand) at quarterback, but with McCarthy suffering an injury in Week 16, Max Brosmer is set to start in Week 17. Nailor should continue to be the victim of both limited opportunities and underwhelming quarterback play, capping his potential going forward. The 26-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Lions.
