  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Cardinals' Chad Ryland: Accuracy dips in 2025

    Ryland made 25 of 33 field-goal attempts and all 36 of his PAT tries while playing in all 17 games during the 2025 regular season.

    Ryland converted a subpar 75.8 percent of his field-goal attempts, landing between the unsightly 64.0 percent mark of his 2023 rookie season and the excellent 87.5 percent conversion rate he produced in 2024. He'll be a restricted free agent this offseason, and while Arizona may be interested in retaining the big-legged kicker, Ryland's regression in 2025 could prompt the team to bring in competition.

  • Nik Bonitto LB | DEN

    Broncos' Nik Bonitto: Sets career high in sacks in 2025

    Bonitto recorded 46 tackles (31 solo), including 14.0 sacks, one pass defensed and two forced fumbles across 17 games in 2025 with the Broncos.

    Bonitto continued to dominate as a pass rusher while recording a career-high 14.0 sacks, which was fifth-most in the NFL this season. The 26-year-old linebacker led all Broncos defenders in sacks, as he and fellow edge rusher Jonathon Cooper continued to work together as one of the best edge-rush duos in the league. Bonitto signed a four-year extension in September, so he'll continue to be a centerpiece of the Broncos' formidable defensive unit in 2026 and beyond. The Oklahoma product should remain a solid IDP option for fantasy purposes next season.

  • Patriots' Thayer Munford: Questionable for wild-card round

    Munford (knee) is questionable for Sunday's wild-card game against the Chargers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Even if Munford suits up, he isn't expected to get into the game unless one of New England's starting offensive tackles gets hurt. Will Campbell and Morgan Moses are both healthy heading into the playoffs.

  • Patriots' Harold Landry: Questionable to face Chargers

    Landry (knee) is questionable for Sunday's wild-card game against the Chargers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Landry's availability for Sunday night's game is up in the air after the veteran linebacker sat out the last two games of the regular season. Elijah Ponder, Anfernee Jennings and Bradyn Swinson would be candidates for larger roles if Landry remains sidelined.

  • Patriots' Khyiris Tonga: Won't play in wild-card round

    Tonga (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's wild-card round game against the Chargers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Tonga missed the last two games of the regular season, which he finished with 24 tackles (15 nine solo) in 14 games. Eric Gregory is poised to take on a larger role on the interior of the defensive line in Tonga's absence Sunday.

  • Broncos' Jonathon Cooper: Finishes 2025 with 8.0 sacks

    Cooper recorded 50 tackles (23 solo), including 8.0 sacks, and four passes defensed over 17 games in 2025.

    Cooper continued to be a key contributor for Denver's top-tier pass rushing unit in 2025, recording the second-most sacks of any Broncos defender behind only Nik Bonitto (14.0). The 28-year-old linebacker signed a four-year extension in 2024, keeping Cooper and Bonitto under contract together for the foreseeable future. Cooper's continued development should help him to build upon his performance as one of the leaders of Denver's defense in 2026.

  • Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Questionable for playoff opener

    Boutte (hamstring) will be listed as questionable for Sunday night's playoff opener against the Chargers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Boutte was added to the Patriots' wild-card-round injury report Thursday after being limited in practice by a hamstring injury. With the wideout now being deemed questionable as the weekend approaches, His status for Sunday's contest could turn into a game-day call ahead of an 8:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Boutte ends up limited or out versus Los Angeles, Kyle Williams would be a candidate to see added opportunities in a wide receiver corps that also includes Stefon Diggs, DeMario Douglas and Efton Chism. Meanwhile, WRs John Jiles, Brandon Smith and Jeremiah Webb are members of New England's practice squad.

  • Breece Hall RB | NYJ

    Jets' Breece Hall: Return to NYJ in play for UFA

    Jets GM Darren Mougey said at Tuesday's end-of-season press conference that the team would like to retain Hall (knee) but wouldn't go into specifics regarding whether the Jets are open to using the franchise tag on the pending unrestricted free agent, Antwan Staley of the New York Daily News reports.

    Hall sat out the Jets' regular-season finale due to a knee injury after posting a career-high 1,065 rushing yards across the previous 16 games. The versatile playmaker has accrued 5,040 yards from scrimmage in 56 regular-season games since being selected in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, but Hall has yet to get a taste of NFL postseason action. Hall's likely to have a robust market in free agency, but the Jets could try to bring him back for his age-25 season on the franchise tag if Hall isn't interested in a long-term extension to stay in New York.

  • J.K. Dobbins RB | DEN

    Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Could be back for Super Bowl

    Dobbins (foot) is pushing hard to return at some point during the postseason, though a return prior to the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 8 remains unlikely, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

    The Super Bowl will be just over 12 weeks after Dobbins sustained a Lisfranc foot injury Week 10, which landed him on injured reserve shortly afterward. Dobbins has made tangible steps forward in his recovery and has rejoined his teammates at team facilities, though he isn't yet ready to resume practicing. To reach the Super Bowl and give Dobbins a realistic chance to return this season, the Broncos would need to win two playoff games following their bye in the wild-card round. RJ Harvey, Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie will continue to hold down the fort in the backfield while the Broncos traverse the AFC side of the playoff bracket.

  • Chargers' Omarion Hampton: Spotted at practice Friday

    Hampton (ankle) was present for Friday's practice, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    Per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com, Hampton -- who was listed as a 'DNP' Wednesday and Thursday -- sported a brace on his right ankle during warmups Friday. Still, the running back's attendance for the session is a step in the right direction for him ahead of Sunday night's playoff opener against the Patriots. The Chargers' upcoming injury report will reveal Hampton's official game status, in any case.
