Kyle Rudolph Will Be A Touchdown-Dependent Option Against Saints

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph (ankle) hopes to be at 100 percent health heading into this weekend's playoff matchup against the Saints. The bye week came at the right time for one of quarterback Case Keenum's favorite red-zone targets, as he tries to work his way through an ankle injury. Rudolph has eight touchdowns this […]

Maliek Collins Undergoes Foot Surgery

Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Maliek Collins (foot) underwent foot surgery on his left foot. The foot had reportedly been bothering him all season. The surgery he had performed was similar to a surgery he had on his other foot prior to his rookie season. That time, he was able to rebound without issue, and the […]

Malcolm Mitchell Still Absent From Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Malcolm Mitchell (knee) remained out of practice Tuesday, raising the question as to whether he'll be activated off Injured Reserve for the game against the Titans on Saturday. Head coach Bill Belichick didn't sound optimistic about Mitchell's status. Mitchell hasn't played all season, so there is little reason to think […]

Chris Hogan Expected To Return This Weekend

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan (shoulder) is expected to return for the Divisional Round against the Titans. He missed seven of the final eight games of the regular season and had just one catch since Week 8. He will return to being a steady pair of hands for quarterback Tom Brady, but Hogan […]

DeMarco Murray Not Practicing Again On Tuesday

Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray (knee) is not practicing Tuesday, and there is a small chance he will play against the Patriots on Saturday. Even if Murray returns after missing the Wild-Card game, it will be Derrick Henry's show in the backfield. Murray's injury may have been a blessing in disguise for the Titans, […]

Zack Martin Has Surgery on His Elbow

Dallas Cowboys right guard Zack Martin (elbow) had a clean-up procedure done on his right elbow. It will knock him out of the Pro Bowl, but he's fully expected to be ready for the start of the offseason program. Martin was a key part of the Cowboys offensive line and is slated for the same […]

As reported by Rob Demovsky, Green Bay Packers linebacker Clay Matthews (knee) underwent a procedure that was described as a “clean-up” for his knee shortly after Green Bay’s season ended.

Jay Ajayi Practices in Full on Tuesday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, as were all the Eagles players outside of linebacker Dannell Ellerbee, who was limited. Ajayi got some rest last week during the Eagles' first-round bye, but there never seemed to be much concern regarding his availability for their first playoff game […]

Rex Burkhead Practicing Tuesday

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (knee) is back at practice Tuesday. Burkhead returned to practice during the bye week, and he's been expected to return for the Divisional Round all along, so expect him to suit up this Saturday against the Titans.

Chris Jones Tears MCL

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (knee) tore his MCL in the 22-21 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Saturday.

Marqise Lee Rushes For Five Yards

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee returned to the field on Sunday and rushed for only five yards in the Jaguars win against the Bills. Lee has missed the past month with an ankle injury and his return should have helped out an inconsistent Jaguars passing offense. But Lee failed to record a catch on […]

DeMarco Murray Listed As Day-To-Day

Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray (knee) is being listed as day-to-day this week. Murray hasn't practiced or played since spraining his knee in Week 16, and he seems doubtful to be able to suit up in the Divisional Round against the Patriots. Even if Murray is active for that one, he seems destined to […]

Tyrod Taylor Struggles In Matchup Against Jaguars To Close Season

Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor completed only 17 of his 37 pass attempts on Sunday against the Jaguars for a total of 134 yards prior to leaving the game with a concussion.

Devin Funchess Active Against Saints

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Devin Funchess (shoulder), who was listed as questionable, is active for the Wild-Card game against the Saints on Sunday. Funchess was never expected to miss this one.

Tyrod Taylor Exits Wild-Card Matchup Late In Game

Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor (head) exited the team's matchup against the Jaguars late in the fourth quarter after hitting his head off the turf during a tackle.
