San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that linebacker Kwon Alexander (pectoral) could return if the team advances to the NFC Championship.

Denver Broncos president John Elway said that the team will pick up outside linebacker Von Miller's option for the 2020 season.

Denver Broncos president John Elway said he will look to do a new deal with running back Phillip Lindsay this offseason. "He has heart the size of his whole body," Elway said of Lindsay.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that the team is hopeful and optimistic that defensive end Dee Ford (hamstring) and safety Jaquiski Tartt (ribs) will be able to return in the Divisional Round.

Anthony Castonzo Considering Retirement

Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo said he will mull his options before deciding to return for another season in 2020. Since being drafted with the 22nd overall pick of the 2011 draft, Castonzo has been one of the better left tackles in the NFL. Losing the 31-year-old going forward would be bad news for […]

Miles Sanders Day-To-Day

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders (ankle) is listed as day-to-day after leaving the Week 17 game early.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf) said he played through a two-centimeter calf tear late in the season.

Surgery A Last Resort For Jarvis Landry
