Jayden Reed WR | GB
Packers' Jayden Reed: Tallies 57 total yards, TD in loss
Reed brought in four of seven targets for 43 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for 14 yards in the Packers' 31-27 wild-card loss to the Bears on Saturday.
Reed tied Matthew Golden for second in receptions and Christian Watson for the same slotting in targets for the Packers on the night. The versatile Reed added an 18-yard touchdown reception just past the halfway point of the second quarter, and although he did have an ill-timed drop early in Green Bay's final drive, he atoned with a personal game-long 20-yard grab later in the possession. Reed appeared in just seven regular-season games in the 2025 campaign due to an assortment of injuries, the most serious being a broken collarbone. He compiled a 19-207-1 line on 22 targets while rushing three times for 28 yards and recording 21 punt-return yards. Reed will head into the final year of his current contract in 2026 and should be in line for a key role in the air attack once more.

Matthew Golden WR | GB
Packers' Matthew Golden: Productive postseason debut in loss
Golden brought in four of five targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in the Packers' 31-27 wild-card loss to the Bears on Saturday.
The speedy rookie put together an inconsistent debut campaign, but he was a key part of the Packers' success in his first career postseason game. Golden finished tied for second in catches and as the runner-up in receiving yards as well for Green Bay on the night, and he flashed with a 36-yard reception and a 23-yard touchdown grab that came with under seven minutes remaining in the contest. Golden finished the 2025 regular season with a 29-361-0 line on 44 targets, a 10-49-0 tally on the ground and 28 punt-return yards across 14 games. Considering Romeo Doubs is a candidate to leave via unrestricted free agency this offseason, Golden should be primed for a busy and more productive second season.

Rome Odunze WR | CHI
Bears' Rome Odunze: Two grabs in return from injury
Odunze brought in two of six targets for 44 yards in the Bears' 31-27 wild-card win over the Packers on Saturday.
Making his return from a five-game absence due to a foot injury to close out the regular season, Odunze finished second in both receiving yards and targets among Chicago's wideouts on the night. The second-year pro delivered noteworthy gains of 17 and 27 yards on his pair of grabs, making it an encouraging performance following the month-plus layoff. Odunze's conditioning and stamina should take another step forward during the forthcoming practice week ahead of next weekend's divisional-round clash against either the 49ers or Eagles.

Romeo Doubs WR | GB
Packers' Romeo Doubs: Stars in postseason loss
Doubs brought in eight of 11 targets for 124 yards and a touchdown while also recovering a fumble in the Packers' 31-27 wild-card loss to the Bears on Saturday.
Doubs easily led the Packers in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the night, and he hauled in one of Jordan Love's four touchdown passes from one yard out on the first play following the two-minute warning in the second quarter. The veteran wideout also had a key 34-yard reception on a fourth-quarter drive that would have likely sealed a win for the Packers had it not ended in a Brandon McManus missed field goal with 2:56 remaining. Doubs put together another solid regular season as well, compiling a 55-724-6 line on 85 targets and recording a career-high 12 receptions of 20-plus yards while adding 94 punt-return yards across 16 games. He's slated to become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the new league year.

DJ Moore WR | CHI
Bears' DJ Moore: Scores key TD in playoff win
Moore secured six of seven targets for 64 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for minus-5 yards in the Bears' 31-27 wild-card win over the Packers on Saturday.
Moore paced the Bears' wideouts in receptions and receiving yards while tying Luther Burden for the lead in targets on the night. The veteran also made up for a drop earlier in Chicago's game-winning drive by hauling in a 25-yard scoring strike from Caleb Williams that would prove to be the game-winning touchdown. Moore should continue playing an integral role in next weekend's divisional-round clash against either the 49ers or Eagles.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Rams' Davante Adams: Targeted 13 times
Adams recorded five receptions on 13 targets for 72 yards in Saturday's 34-31 wild-card round win over the Panthers.
Adams managed to suit up for the first time since Week 15. While he showed some signs of rust, Adams was targeted heavily as the passing offense flowed through him and Puka Nacua. Adams particularly came alive in the second half, logging three receptions for 58 yards in the final two quarters -- highlighted by a 23-yard catch early in the fourth quarter. He should be more consistent in the divisional round and will almost certainly retain a key role in the offense.

Tetairoa McMillan WR | CAR
Panthers' Tetairoa McMillan: Five catches in playoff loss
McMillan recorded five receptions on seven targets for 81 yards in Saturday's 34-31 wild-card round loss to the Rams.
McMillan was overshadowed by Jalen Coker, but he still turned in a solid showing of his own. He particularly played a key role on a touchdown drive in the second quarter, logging consecutive receptions of 14 and 22 yards. Overall, McMillan closed his rookie season having topped 70 receiving yards in three of his last five games (including playoffs), setting him up to take a potential step forward in his sophomore season.

Jalen Coker WR | CAR
Panthers' Jalen Coker: Big showing in postseason debut
Coker recorded nine receptions on 12 targets for 134 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 34-31 wild-card round loss to the Rams.
The Panthers nearly pulled off the significant upset, and Coker was a key to the offense's success. He led the team in every stat and pulled in a seven-yard touchdown catch with 2:39 remaining in the fourth quarter to give the Panthers the lead. Coker also chipped in long catches of 52 and 37 yards to record the highest single-game yardage total of his career, even more impressive considering it was his first appearance in the postseason. Coker missed the first half of the regular season with a quadriceps injury, but he looks capable of forming a solid wide receiver duo with Tetairoa McMillan in 2026.

Puka Nacua WR | LAR
Rams' Puka Nacua: Keeps rolling to start postseason
Nacua recorded 10 receptions on 18 targets for 111 yards and one touchdown in Saturday's 34-31 wild-card round win over the Panthers. He added three rushes for 14 yards and an additional score.
Nacua got off to a hot start, logging three receptions for 40 yards and a touchdown on the Rams' first offensive possession. He then capped off the team's third drive with a five-yard score that came on a backward pass from Matthew Stafford. Nacua also uncharacteristically dropped a wide-open pass heading into halftime that would have been another long touchdown, though he made up for that by breaking up a potential interception late in the fourth quarter to help the Rams advance. All told, he played a key role in the win and will remain a focal point of the offense in the upcoming divisional round.

Jahdae Walker WR | CHI
Bears' Jahdae Walker: Won't face Green Bay
Walker (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Packers.
Walker has been active for four of Chicago's last five games, taking the roster spot of Rome Odunze. With Odunze ready to return to the field, Walker will be a healthy scratch.
