  • Coby Bryant CB | CHI

    Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Past knee injury

    Bryant (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Bryant missed the final two games of the regular season due to a knee injury, but he had an additional week of rest courtesy of the Seahawks' wild-card round bye as the No. 1 seed in the NFC. With his full practice Tuesday, Bryant is on track to play in Saturday's divisional-round clash against the 49ers, which would likely result in Ty Okada reverting to a rotational role in the Seahawks' secondary.

  • Tariq Woolen CB | PHI

    Seahawks' Riq Woolen: Dealing with oblique issue

    Woolen (oblique) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    The Seahawks were on a bye for the NFC wild-card round, so Woolen may have picked up the injury against the 49ers in Week 18, when he logged two tackles (one solo) and one pass defense. The fourth-year pro will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation ahead of Saturday's divisional-round clash against San Francisco.

  • Seahawks' DeMarcus Lawrence: Nursing Achilles injury

    Lawrence (Achilles) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Lawrence may have tweaked his Achilles during the Seahawks' Week 18 win over the 49ers. That victory earned Seattle the No. 1 seed in the NFC for the playoffs and a bye for the wild-card round, so the veteran pass rusher has enjoyed additional time to recover from the injury. Lawrence will have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Saturday's divisional-round game against San Francisco.

  • Dre Greenlaw LB | SF

    Broncos' Dre Greenlaw: Should return Saturday vs. Buffalo

    Greenlaw (hamstring) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice.

    Greenlaw missed the final two games of the regular season due to a hamstring injury. The Broncos enjoyed a bye for the wild-card as the AFC's No. 1 seed, and with that additional rest, the veteran linebacker is expected to be available for Saturday's divisional-round tilt against Buffalo, per Luca Evans of The Denver Post. Greenlaw will have two more opportunities this week to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation ahead of the divisional round.

  • P.J. Locke DB | DAL

    Broncos' P.J. Locke: Good to go for divisional round

    Locke (leg) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

    Locke suffered a leg injury during the Broncos' Week 18 win over the Chargers. He had an extra week to recover from the injury thanks to the Broncos' bye to the divisional round, and with his full pratice Tuesday, Locke is on track to play against the Bills on Saturday. He ended the 2025 regular season with 16 tackles (nine solo) and three pass defenses over 16 games while serving on both defense and special teams.

  • Broncos' John Franklin-Myers: Logs full practice Tuesday

    Franklin-Myers (hip) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

    Franklin-Myers was held out of the Broncos' regular-season finale against the Chargers on Jan. 4. He enjoyed an additional week of rest courtesy of the Broncos' first-round playoff bye as the No. 1 seed in the AFC, and the veteran pass rusher is on track to play against the Bills on Saturday. Franklin-Myers ended the 2025 regular season with 25 tackles (12 solo), including a career-high 7.5 sacks, across 16 games.

  • Curtis Samuel WR | BUF

    Bills' Curtis Samuel: Logs full practice Tuesday

    Samuel (elbow) was a full participant during Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

    Samuel has been sidelined for the Bills' last eight games, including Sunday's wild-card win against the Jaguars, due to an elbow injury. His full participation Tuesday is an encouraging sign and puts Samuel on track to being activated from injured reserve ahead of Saturday's divisional-round game against the Broncos. The return would be timely, given that both Tyrell Shavers and Gabe Davis tore their ACLs against Jacksonville.

  • Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Estimated as DNP on Tuesday

    Hairston (ankle) did not participate in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

    Hairston was unable to play in the Bills' wild-card win against the Jaguars on Sunday due to an ankle injury he sustained during the Bills' regular-season finale against the Jets. He is considered week-to-week, so unless he returns to practice over the next two days, Hairston is unlikely to be available for Saturday's divisional-round clash against Denver.

  • Terrel Bernard LB | BUF

    Bills' Terrel Bernard: Back at practice Tuesday

    Bernard (calf) was listed as a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

    Bernard was unable to practice in the week leading up to the Bills' wild-card game against the Jaguars on Sunday, so his ability to log a limited session -- albeit in a walkthrough -- is a sign that the fourth-year linebacker is progressing in his recovery from a calf injury. Bernard will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation ahead of Saturday's AFC divisional game against the Broncos.

  • 49ers' Ricky Pearsall: Officially listed as limited

    Pearsall (knee/ankle) was officially estimated as limited in Tuesday's walkthrough practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    The 49ers held a walkthrough session Tuesday, so Pearsall's activity level is only an estimate, but it appears he's ready to retake the practice field for the first time since Dec. 31. He's managing an ankle injury in addition to an aggravated PCL sprain in his right knee. With standout tight end George Kittle having suffered a season-ending Achilles tear during a wild-card win over Philadelphia, it would be a notable boost for the Niners' receiving corps if Pearsall is able to return for Saturday's divisional-round matchup with Seattle.
