Antonio Brown is questionable to return with a calf injury.

The team isn’t ruling Brown out yet, but his status isn’t looking great. A calf injury is probably better than a high-ankle sprain or something else, but we’ll see what the severity is.

Adam Shaheen (chest) is out for Week 15.

Shaheen is dealing with a chest injury that had him limited in practice all week. With the Bears out of playoff contention, it’s not surprising that the rookie tight end is inactive versus Detroit. But hopefully Shaheen is ready to go for Week 16, as he could use the playing experience heading into 2018.

Antonio Brown leaves with an apparent lower leg injury.

Brown just nearly had a touchdown on a deep pass to the end zone but instead went down with an injury and had to be helped off the field. AB wasn’t putting any pressure on on his leg, which clearly isn’t a positive sign. In the biggest regular season game of the season for the Steelers, Brown is someone they can’t afford to lose in what’s shaping up to be a shootout with the Patriots. His leg did twist a bit on the play, but it’s difficult to identify what the potential injury might be. We’ll update you as more information becomes available.

Ameer Abdullah is active for Week 15.

After Abdullah was inactive as a reportedly healthy scratch last week, he’s back in the lineup today against the Bears. It’s unclear what the dynamic back’s workload will look like, so it’s extremely risky to insert Abdullah into fantasy lineups as a FLEX option.

Brittan Golden gets carted off with an injury.

It appeared Golden suffered an injury to his right arm, and it doesn’t look good. He’s getting carted to the locker room, but at least he looked in good spirit. Golden had no receptions in today’s game, and unfortunately his season is likely over.

The Packers waived quarterback Joe Callahan.

Callahan had been backing up Brett Hundley while Aaron Rodgers was out, but the Packers are opting to go with two quarterbacks now that Rodgers is officially back on the active roster. Green Bay would almost certainly add Callahan, who they really like, to the practice squad if he clears waivers. Other teams might be interested in claiming Callahan, though.

Joe Mixon (concussion) is now out for Week 15.

Mixon was listed as questionable after making progress in the concussion protocol, but the team went ahead and ruled out their rookie runner ahead of tomorrow’s game against the Vikings. Giovani Bernard now gets a boost, but he’s only a FLEX option against a stingy Minnesota defense. Mixon should be good to go for Week 16, but we’ll monitor his status next week.
