Link to storyLos Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (finger) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 16, and is not on the injury report for the Divisional Round playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Stafford picked up a sprained finger in last week's win, but he'll be a full go in a blustery road game against the Bears. His finger and the expected weather should temper expectations, but Stafford's multi-touchdown upside always makes him viable in fantasy. |

| Footballguys view: Back-to-back full practices for Henry signal that he should play Sunday without any limitations. Henry has displayed a strong connection with Drake Maye near the end zone this year, keeping him in consideration as one of the week's top tight ends. |

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore (knee) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 16, and is not on the injury report for the Divisional Round playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Moore has had some big games this year, but his production has been sporadic. He'll get the occasional gadgety play, and those might be more abundant this week, given the expected inclement weather. Moore will likely fall behind Colston Loveland and Luther Burden in total targets, but he's got a chance to find the end zone. |

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze (foot) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 16, but is listed as questionable for the Divisional Round playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Odunze has played through a pained fracture in his foot for the better part of this season. He gutted it out last week, and he's expected to give it a go again this week. However, considering his production since the injury, it's really hard to trust him outside of desperate scenarios. |
