We're into Week 13 of the 2021 NFL season, and injuries are once again a factor in several key games this coming weekend. The story of this week is running back (and running game) injuries, with several backfield players expected to be out of action. But we're also likely to have some stars returning to the field, including an MVP candidate quarterback.
As teams turn in their final injury reports of the week, let this be your hub for knowing who is in, who is out, and whose status may still be up in the air leading up to kickoff. Below, you'll find every injury report and analysis of what it all means for Week 12.
Whitehead's absence is a potentially big one against Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts, especially if White also can't play. White did get in a full practice on both Thursday Friday, though, a good sign for his potential availability. Marpet practiced fully on Friday as well, while Dean was a full participant all week.
Atlanta gets Deion Jones and Kendall Sheffield back for this game, which is good because the Falcons need all the help they can get against the explosive Tampa Bay offense.
Murray may make his return to the field this Sunday, as he is questionable after being a limited participant in practice all week with his ankle injury. Hopkins' status appears to be more up in the air, as he was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday with his hamstring injury, but sat out on Friday.
While the Bears had a long week, it didn't help them in the injury department. There are several big names that won't be taking the field this Sunday. Robinson being doubtful is big for the offense, and while Fields is listed as doubtful as well, head coach Matt Nagy has already said that Andy Dalton will start in his place, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Smith will be a game-time decision, and he was a limited participant in practice on Friday with his hamstring injury.

The Vikings have a few big absences here, with Cook and Darrisaw potentially hamstringing the offense a bit. Alexander Mattison has filled in quite well for Cook when he's had to miss time and he should do fine in a solid matchup here, but the line could suffer without the left tackle. Kendricks and Barr would also be big absences, though the likely absence of D'Andre Swift for Detroit would make them less damaging.
Detroit could have a good chance at securing its first win on Sunday with some of the injuries Minnesota has, but the Lions have injury problems of their own. Swift has already been ruled out with a shoulder injury, as has starting linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin. There are some questions on the offensive line as well, as Nelson and Sewell are questionable to play. Both were limited participants in practice on Friday.
Mike Glennon will start in place of Jones, and he will be working with a skeleton crew of skill-position weapons. Jackson being out is hurtful against the Dolphins, as he was the most likely of the Giants' corners to be able to keep pace with the speedy Jaylen Waddle.
The Eagles would like to have Scott in the backfield toting the rock this week, but the real storyline is Hurts, who is questionable with an ankle injury. He was a limited participant in practice all week, which is somewhat good news, but we don't know if he will feel good enough on Sunday to play.

- Bengals:
Injury reports to come.
Collins' absence is somewhat less damaging against the Raiders with Darren Waller likely to miss the game, but the Football Team could miss him in its attempts to stop the run. McKissic being out could set up Antonio Gibson for his largest workload of the season, though coach Ron Rivera hinted that Wendell Smallwood could play a McKissic-esque role on Sunday. The Washington offensive line has been better of late, so it's worth keeping an eye on the Flowers and Larsen injuries.
The Jaguars will be without Griffin for another game, as he is still dealing with his concussion. The offense could be lacking as well, as Robinson is dealing with a foot injury. He was a limited participant in practice all week.

- Ravens: OT Cedric Ogbuehi (thigh) OUT; WR Miles Boykin (finger) DOUBTFUL; CB Anthony Averett (shoulder/ankle), TE Nick Boyle (knee), OL Patrick Mekari (ankle), LB Patrick Queen (ribs), FB Patrick Ricard (foot/thigh), CB Jimmy Smith (neck), CB Chris Westry (thigh), CB Tavon Young (illness), LB Jaylon Ferguson (illness), CB Marlon Humphrey (illness), LB Odafe Oweh (shoulder) QUESTIONABLE
- Steelers: CB Joe Haden (foot), DE Isaiah Buggs (ankle) OUT
There's not really a good starting point when it comes to the Ravens' injury report. There are a total of 13 players with game designations and 11 are questionable. Among the 11 questionable, eight are on the defensive side of the ball. It's not all bumps and bruises either, as an illness is apparently going around in the locker room. Young, Ferguson and Humphrey are all questionable to play due to a non-COVID sickness, and did not practice on Friday.
Pittsburgh would like to have Haden for this important AFC North showdown, but he's going to miss another game with his foot injury. Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral/right shoulder) and Chase Claypool (toe) were listed on the injury report as well, but they were full participants on both Thursday and Friday and have no game designation.
