Week 16 of the 2018 NFL season kicks off with two more games on Saturday and the four teams in those games submitted their final injury reports on Thursday. The 26 teams in Sunday’s games submitted their final injury reports of the week on Friday.

Questionable players are uncertain to play, doubtful players are unlikely to play and out should be self-explanatory. Players who are on active rosters and don’t appear below should be considered healthy enough to play barring any announcements on Saturday. The teams playing on Monday night won’t release their injury reports until Saturday and are not listed here.

With that housekeeping out of the way, here are all the injury reports for Sunday.

Bengals at Browns

WR Tyler Boyd (knee), LB Jordan Evans (ankle) and CB Tony McRae (hamstring) are all out for the Bengals. LB Vontaze Burfict (concussion) is listed as questionable after missing the last two games.
