  • P.J. Locke SAF | DEN

    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.

  • Elijah Arroyo TE | SEA

    Seahawks' Elijah Arroyo: Practicing in full

    Arroyo (knee), who remains on IR, was a full participant at practice Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Arroyo had his 21-day practice window opened last Wednesday, and by all accounts he appears healthy enough to play in Saturday's divisional-round matchup against the 49ers. In order for the rookie second-round pick to take the field versus San Francisco, though, Seattle will first have to officially activate him from IR.

  • Dalton Kincaid TE | BUF

    Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Limited to begin week of prep

    Kincaid was a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice due to knee and calf injuries.

    Kincaid has been listed on injury reports with the knee issue dating back to Week 16, but the calf injury may be the greater concern for the tight end as Saturday's divisional-round game versus the Broncos approaches. He was able to make an impact in a wild-card win over the Jaguars this past weekend with three catches for 45 yards and a touchdown on five targets, but he was spotted in a walking boot following the game. Head coach Sean McDermott indicated that Kincaid was donning the boot merely as a precaution, however, providing some optimism that the 26-year-old will still be able to suit up in Denver.

  • Moro Ojomo DT | PHI

    Eagles' Moro Ojomo: Finishes with six sacks

    Ojomo finished the season with 38 tackles and six sacks.

    A seventh-round pick back in 2023, Ojomo has gone from a 13 percent snap share as a rookie to 37 percent in his second season all the way up to 60 percent in his third year. He started nine games for the Eagles and played in all 17, finishing second on the team in sacks. The impressive development should keep him as a key part of the defensive line rotation next season.

  • Matt Prater K | BUF

    Bills' Matt Prater: Sits out first practice of week

    The Bills listed Prater as a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice due to right quadriceps and calf injuries.

    The kicker had previously been listed on injury reports with only the quad issue, which kept him from playing in Weeks 16 and 17. Since returning in Week 18, Prater has knocked down both of his field-goal tries and all six of his extra-point attempts, but he's ceded kickoff duties to punter Mitch Wishnowsky in both contests. Even though Prater's calf is now bothering him as well, head coach Sean McDermott said he expects the veteran to kick during Wednesday's practice, per Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com. If Prater is unable to play in Saturday's divisional-round game in Denver, the Bills will likely call up Matthew Wright from the practice squad to serve as their placekicker.
