Check in with theScore's Injury Roundup every Friday afternoon for official designations of every notable player uncertain to play in Sunday's games.

Reminder: A 2016 rule change dropped "probable" from weekly injury reports. Any player with less than a 100 percent chance of being active is considered "questionable" as a result, while "doubtful" is used when their game-day availability is deemed unlikely.
