Week 17 inactives: Who's in and who's out?

Whom should you start? Whom should you sit? To help you set your fantasy football lineups and avoid starting a player who won't be in the lineup, we'll post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their official inactives lists. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.

Official inactives should begin coming in approximately 90 minutes prior to each game's scheduled kickoff time.

Refresh often for the latest information.

Larry Ogunjobi, DE, PIT: Toe -- Active

Myles Jack, LB, PIT: Groin -- Active

Lamar Jackson, QB, BAL: Knee -- OUT Impact: Playoff spot in hand, Tyler Huntley will handle things in the Ravens' huddle.

Calais Campbell, DT, BAL: Knee -- Inactive

Marcus Peters, CB, BAL: Calf -- OUT

Christian Watson, WR, GB: Hip -- Active Impact: He was a game-time call, so there's still a chance Allen Lazard will get some extra looks.

Ben Skowronek, WR, LAR: Calf -- OUT Impact: Hello, Van Jefferson and Tutu Atwell? Is this thing on?

Tyler Higbee, TE, LAR: Elbow -- Active Impact: Expect him to be catching as many passes from Baker Mayfield as possible.

Derek Carr, QB, LV: Team decision -- Inactive Impact: The Raiders may attempt to trade Carr as they move on at quarterback with Jarrett Stidham for now.

Kenneth Walker III, RB, SEA: Ankle -- Active Impact: Walker will start and should get much of the RB workload this week.

Travis Homer, RB, SEA: Ankle -- Inactive Impact: No practice all week, so it's not a surprise. DeeJay Dallas will be the primary backup to Walker.

Marquise Goodwin, WR, SEA: Shoulder -- OUT/IR Impact: He joins TE Will Dissly (knee) on the bench as we ring in 2023.

Tyler Lockett, WR, SEA: Hand -- Active Impact: There's not much else in the WR room beyond Lockett and DK Metcalf. Penny Hart is inactive.

Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, SF: Foot -- OUT Impact: Since Garoppolo is "not able to move around and do stuff yet," Brock Purdy remains the man.

Deebo Samuel, WR, SF: Knee -- OUT Impact: The rumor mill seems to think Samuel might be able to get some snaps in Week 18.

Keisean Nixon, CB, GB: Groin -- Active

Derwin James Jr., S, LAC: Concussion -- OUT

Aaron Donald, DT, LAR: Ankle -- OUT

Leonard Floyd, LB, LAR: Illness -- Active

Lamarcus Joyner, S, NYJ: Hip -- Active

Ryan Neal, S, SEA: Knee -- Inactive

Colt McCoy, QB, ARI: Concussion -- OUT Impact: Apparently, things aren't quite right just yet with McCoy, so the Cardinals will turn to David Blough.

DeAndre Hopkins, WR, ARI: Knee -- OUT Impact: Pick your poison, given the QB scenario here: Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch, A.J. Green or Robbie Anderson.

Tommy Tremble, TE, CAR: Hip -- Active Impact: He could be good for a couple of catches, but not much more.

Dante Pettis, WR, CHI: Ankle -- Active Impact: Equanimeous St. Brown has cleared concussion protocol, so you could also pivot in his direction, if needed.

Chase Claypool, WR, CHI: Knee -- Active Impact: Claypool is likely to dominate the target count.

Jerry Jeudy, WR, DEN: Ankle -- Active Impact: He's expected to play this weekend.

Kendall Hinton, WR, DEN: Hamstring -- Active Impact: Courtland Sutton is ready to return to action, limiting most of Hinton's upside.

Greg Dulcich, TE, DEN: Hamstring -- OUT/IR Impact: Could this mean a return to fantasy relevance for Albert Okwuegbunam?

Dare Ogunbowale, RB, HOU: Knee -- Active Impact: Royce Freeman may not have to share as many carries this week.

Teagan Quitoriano, TE, HOU: Knee -- OUT Impact: Admit it. You had no idea he was the Texans' starting TE before reading this. Jordan Akins and Brevin Jordan will share targets.

Kylen Granson, TE, IND: Ankle -- OUT Impact: Can Nick Foles-to-Jelani Woods win you a fantasy title?

Trevor Lawrence, QB, JAX: Toe -- Active Impact: Although this game is technically meaningless to the Jaguars, Lawrence will play.

Tua Tagovailoa, QB, MIA: Concussion -- OUT Impact: The Dolphins will have to rely on Teddy Bridgewater to try to get them to the postseason.

Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, NE: Ankle -- Active Impact: He will probably end up splitting some of the RB duties with Damien Harris.

DeVante Parker, WR, NE: Concussion -- OUT Impact: Expect Jakobi Meyers and Nelson Agholor to start.

Tyquan Thornton, WR, NE: Knee -- Active Impact: Given Parker's injury, there's a huge opportunity here.

Hunter Henry, TE, NE: Knee -- Active Impact: He should have a monopoly on any TE targets ...

Jonnu Smith, TE, NE: Concussion -- OUT Impact: ... with no other active options on the depth chart.

Chris Olave, WR, NO: Hamstring -- Active Impact: He will start alongside the likes of Rashid Shaheed and Tre'Quan Smith.

Jalen Hurts, QB, PHI: Shoulder -- OUT Impact: Once again, Gardner Minshew is going to start for the Eagles.

Julio Jones, WR, TB: Knee -- Active Impact: All signs point to Jones being able to dress for this one.

Antonio Gibson, RB, WAS: Knee -- OUT Impact: Brian Robinson Jr. could have a huge day as a result.

Zach Allen, DT, ARI: Hand -- OUT

Antonio Hamilton, CB, ARI: Hip -- OUT

Marco Wilson, CB, ARI: Neck -- Inactive
