Mason (ankle) was a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice.

EDGE Analysis

With the Vikings estimating Mason as a non-participant on both of their first two Week 17 injury reports, the 26-year-old hasn't been ruled out from playing Thursday against the Lions, but he's being viewed as a "longshot" to suit up, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Assuming Mason is formally ruled out for the Week 17 game following the release of Wednesday's injury report, Aaron Jones would be in line to lead the Minnesota backfield Thursday, provided he can move past the ankle injury that rendered him a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Tuesday that Fields (knee) is set to be placed on injured reserve.

EDGE Analysis

The transaction is likely to be made official Wednesday, when New York will likely add another player to its 53-man roster in a corresponding move. Fields hadn't been available for any of the Jets' last three games, and though the quarterback resumed practicing in a limited fashion last week, the Jets opted to shut him down after his condition hadn't improved as quickly as the team had hoped. The 26-year-old is under contract through next season, but the Jets are unlikely to view him as anything more than a backup option heading into 2026 following an unproductive run as the team's starter over the first 11 weeks of 2025. Over his nine appearances, Fields completed 62.7 percent of his passes for 6.2 yards per attempt and a 7:1 TD:INT to go with 383 yards (5.4 per carry) and four scores on the ground, but he lost three fumbles and took 27 sacks on his 231 dropbacks.

Ersery underwent surgery to repair his broken hand Tuesday and is without a timetable for return, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ersery has been Houston's starting left tackle since Week 2, so this is a significant loss for a Texans team that is on a hot streak headed into the postseason. Tytus Howard and Trent Brown (knee) are options to take over at left tackle for the Texans while Ersery is idle.

Denver placed Turner-Yell (knee) on the practice squad injured list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Turner-Yell was injured in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars and will be required to miss at least the final two games of the regular season and the first two games of the playoffs. The 26-year-old has appeared in 31 regular-season games for Denver since the start of the 2022 season.

Kittle was diagnosed with a low-to-mid-grade ankle sprain following an MRI on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After he was forced out of Monday's 48-27 win over the Colts with the injury, Kittle said that he believed that he had avoided a high-ankle sprain, and follow-up tests have confirmed that's indeed the case. Though Kittle isn't facing a long-term injury, the star tight end could still be at risk of missing a game Sunday versus the Bears that has important playoff-positioning implications at stake. Before departing late in the third quarter Monday, Kittle still delivered for his fantasy managers, posting seven catches for a season-high 115 yards and a touchdown on eight targets.

Moore (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Moore missed the Week 16 loss to the Titans on Sunday but appears to be ready to return to the lineup Thursday against Denver. He started each of his previous two games at right tackle.

Pratt (back) worked out for the Cardinals on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pratt was a seventh-round pick in the 2024 Draft by the Packers and spent last summer with the Bucs before being cut from the reserve/PUP list with an injury settlement. Pratt has never appeared in a regular-season NFL contest.

Turpin (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Turpin produced 27 total yards on four touches on offense in Sunday's loss to the Chargers. His biggest impact comes on special teams, where he serves as the Cowboys' return man.

Mafah (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dallas opened Mafah's 21-day practice window last week, and he remains on injured reserve. The seventh-round rookie running back has yet to play in a game this season.

The Bears designated Newman (foot) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie guard has been stuck on IR since Nov. 27, and his potential return for Week 17 is a great sign for the Bears as they prepare to make a deep playoff run. Newman's practice participation throughout Week 17 will be key in the organization's evaluation of his playing potential for the remainder of the regular season. As it stands, the offensive guard would need to be activated by Jan 13 or he will have to spend the rest of the 2025 season on IR.
