What happened: Fitzpatrick was a full participant Thursday after remaining limited earlier in the week. The upgrade comes ahead of Sunday after Wednesday's limited practice listing.
Why it matters: A full session is a positive step for his availability after his status had been tracked throughout the week. Per ESPN, Fitzpatrick posted 82 tackles, one sack and one interception in 14 games in 2025, giving the defense a proven starter if he is cleared.
By the numbers: Practice trend this week: limited Wednesday, full Thursday. 2025 stats: 82 tackles, 1 sack, 1 interception in 14 games.
What to watch: Friday's injury report will show whether the earlier questionable tag changes before Sunday. The inactive list will provide the final game-day status.
