  • Tutu Atwell WR | LAR

    Rams' Tutu Atwell: Not playing Sunday

    Atwell (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Seahawks.

    For the second week in a row, Atwell will be in street clothes while the Rams move forward with Konata Mumpfield, Jordan Whittington, Xavier Smith and Mario Williams as their depth options at receiver behind starters Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

    Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Sitting out NFC Championship

    Arroyo (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.

    Arroyo was activated injured reserve Friday after he was a full participant in practice for the second week in a row, but the Seahawks apparently weren't comfortable making the rookie second-round pick one of their three active tight ends Sunday. With Arroyo sitting out, Eric Saubert and Nick Kallerup will serve as the reserve options at tight end behind AJ Barner.

  • Jarquez Hunter RB | LAR

    Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Inactive again Sunday

    Hunter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Seattle, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

    Hunter will take a seat for the second straight week after playing 13 snaps on special teams in the Rams' win over the Panthers in the wild-card round. Ronnie Rivers will serve as the team's No. 3 option at running back behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum versus the Seahawks.

  • Nick Vannett TE | LAR

    Rams' Nick Vannett: Healthy scratch for NFCCG

    Vannett (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Seahawks, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

    Vannett has played in each of the Rams' last seven games (including their two playoff contests). However, the veteran will be a healthy inactive for Sunday's playoff game while the Rams go with four active tight ends in Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson, Terrance Ferguson and Davis Allen.

  • Pat Bryant WR | DEN

    Broncos' Pat Bryant: Not returning Sunday

    Bryant (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

    Bryant was initially deemed questionable to return to the game after suffering a hamstring injury during the second quarter, but the Broncos will end up holding him out for the remainder of the contest. The rookie wideout rushed once for one yard and hauled in his lone target for a two-yard gain prior to departing.

  • Byron Young LB | LAR

    Rams' Byron Young: Good to go vs. Seattle

    Young (knee) is active for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Seahawks, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

    Young earned the questionable tag for Sunday's game after logging a limited practice Friday. He went through pregame warmups to test his knee, and the third-year pro has been given the green light to play against Seattle. Young has logged six tackles (two solo) across the Rams' two playoff games.

  • Seahawks' Velus Jones: Inactive for NFC Championship

    Jones (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams.

    Jones and Cam Akers were both elevated from the practice squad to the Seahawks' active roster Saturday. However, it will be the latter who joins George Holani as the team's backup running backs behind Kenneth Walker for Sunday's playoff contest while Jones observes the game in street clothes.

  • Amari Kight OT | SEA

    Seahawks' Amari Kight: Unavailable Sunday

    Kight (knee) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Los Angeles.

    Kight was absent from practice Wednesday and Thursday due to a knee injury, and he'll now be forced to sit out Sunday. In his absence, Josh Jones will operate as the undisputed top reserve option at offensive tackle versus the Rams.

  • Robbie Ouzts RB | SEA

    Seahawks' Robbie Ouzts: Won't play in NFCCG

    Ouzts (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams.

    Ouzts was limited in practice all week due to a neck injury, and he will not play in the NFC Championship Game after going through pregame warmups. Brady Russell will be the lone healthy fullback on the Seahawks' roster for Sunday's contest.

  • Josh Jones OT | SEA

    Seahawks' Josh Jones: Active Sunday

    Jones (knee) is active for Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Rams.

    Jones was considered questionable with a knee injury, but he'll now ultimately be able to give it a go. The 28-year-old will operate as the team's primary reserve option behind Charles Cross and Abraham Lucas at offensive tackle against Los Angeles.
