Cleared from injury report
Zylstra (neck) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.
ANALYSIS
Zylstra left Sunday's win over the Jaguars early with the injury, but it doesn't appear the tight end is suffering any lasting effects from it. Barring any setbacks, he should be good to go Week 12 against the Colts.
