Updates/analysis (most recent first)
Arian Foster (7:50 a.m.): The Miami RB should be on the field for warm-ups to see how his hamstring feels. The answer to that question is what likely will fuel the Dolphins' decision on Foster's status for today's game.
Eddie Lacy (7:45 a.m.): The Packers running back is expected to play today, but as NFL Network's Ian Rapoport notes, he is likely to be the only active running back on the roster for the game. WR Randall Cobb would be used in the backfield should something befall Lacy.
New England Patriots (7:40 a.m.): A bevy of questionables all expect to suit up?for the team today, including LeGarrette Blount, Martellus Bennett and Julian Edelman. TE Rob Gronkowski, battling a bug, should also be well enough to play for the Patriots.
Sammie Coates (7:35 a.m.): According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Pittsburgh wide receiver, dealing with a fractured thumb, is going to be a game-time call as to whether he can play.
Dez Bryant (7:30 a.m.): While the wide receiver did return to practice for the Cowboys this week, odds of him actually being able to play today are " slim," although he is expected to try to test his knee in pre-game warmups.
Official Sunday inactives should begin coming in at approximately 11:30 a.m. ET for the early games, 2:30 p.m. ET for the later set and 7 p.m. ET for the Sunday night game.
