Dave Kluge's Week 17 Injuries, News, and Notes Dave Kluge Published 12/26/2025

By Thursday afternoon, injury reports have usually told us most of the story. The final practice reports add the last details, but the week's trends often give us a clear preview of what's ahead in the coming weekend. This week is a bit different, as Thursday was Christmas, and many teams did not practice, leaving us with many estimated participations. Check out our newswire today for updates as more information comes in.
