Broncos | J.K. Dobbins has practice window opened Tue Jan 20, 12:06 AM
Updating a previous report. Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) had his 21-day practice window opened Monday, Jan. 19.
| Footballguys view: Dobbins needs to be activated off the injured reserve to play this week and there is no guarantee that he will be ready for Sunday. Stay tuned. |

Seahawks | Kenneth Walker III matches franchise record Tue Jan 20, 12:03 AM
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III matched a franchise record with three rushing touchdowns, 116 rushing yards and 19 carries in the NFC Divisional Round playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers.
| Footballguys view: That was the Walker that fantasy investors who landed him last summer expected all season. With Zach Charbonnet suffering a torn ACL against the 49ers, Walker will have ample opportunity against the Rams this week. Walker is currently the only healthy running back on the 53-man roster, but the Seahawks also have veteran backs Velus Jones Jr and Cam Akers on the practice squad. Additionally, George Holani, who has been on injured reserve since late November due to a hamstring injury, could be a candidate to return. However, he has not yet be designated to return to practice. |
Seahawks | Cam Akers, Velus Jones Jr. could see larger roles Mon Jan 19, 10:32 PM
Seattle Seahawks RBs Cam Akers and/or Velus Jones Jr. could be options to fill in behind RB Kenneth Walker III, according to head coach Mike Macdonald on Monday, Jan. 19, now that RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) is out for the rest of the playoffs.

Seahawks | George Holani could return from IR Mon Jan 19, 10:29 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB George Holani (hamstring) is an option to return from the Reserve/Injured list, head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday, Jan. 19. Holani was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Nov. 29 due to a hamstring injury. 'I think we'll just let this play out this week,' Macdonald said, as the team scrambles to find a replacement for RB Zach Charbonnet (knee).

Broncos | J.K. Dobbins returning to practice Mon Jan 19, 02:45 PM
Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) will have his 21-day practice window opened this week and has a chance to be available for the AFC Championship game, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: The Broncos have struggled to move the ball consistently on the ground ever since Dobbins went down with a Lisfranc sprain in Week 10. Now, with Bo Nix out due to injury, Jarrett Stidham will be making his first start since the finale of the 2023 season. Having a run game to lean on will make life easier for him. But Dobbins needs to be activated off the injured reserve first. There is no guarantee that he will be ready for Sunday. We'll continue monitoring. |

Bills | James Cook had running room in 2025 Mon Jan 19, 02:08 PM
Buffalo Bills RB James Cook had a league-leading 935 rushing yards before contact during the 2025 regular season.
| Footballguys view: Cook finished 2025 with 1,621 yards rushing, topping all NFL RBs. He was also second among running backs in yards per carry (minimum five games played), with a rate of 5.2 yards per attempt during the regular season. Cook, who finished the season as RB6 with 18.1 points per game, ended up with 12 games with 100-plus scrimmage yards (tied for most in the NFL), and the Bills were 11-1 in those games. They were 1-4 when he had fewer than 100 yards, further proving his worth to that offense. He'll be drafted as an RB1 in 2026. |
Colts | Jonathan Taylor productive after contact Mon Jan 19, 02:07 PM
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor recorded a league-leading 787 rushing yards after contact this season.
| Footballguys view: Taylor also led the NFL in total touchdowns during the 2025 NFL season with 20 (18 rushing). Beyond that, his 1,595 rushing yards were the second-most in football. Taylor also ranked ninth in yards per rush attempt, and he tied for third in rushes of at least 10 yards. All of that production came without Taylor producing a 100-yard rushing performance during the second half of the season. Big picture, Taylor, who finished 2025 as RB4, with 21.3 points per game, has now rushed for over 1,400 yards in each of the last two seasons. |

Seahawks | Torn ACL for Zach Charbonnet Mon Jan 19, 01:03 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a significant knee injury during the Divisional Round playoff game and will need to undergo surgery, according to head coach Mike Macdonald.
| Footballguys view: ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the injury is a torn ACL. That makes sense. While Macdonald didn't reveal the exact nature of the injury, he said Charbonnet would face "a long road back," potentially hinting at the running back missing time next season. Throughout the regular season, Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker combined to give the Seahawks a fearsome rushing attack. The team ranked 10th in the NFL with 2,096 rushing yards in 2025. Walker led the way with 1,027 yards, but Charbonnet was the hammer, scoring 12 of the team's 19 rushing scores. |

Texans | Joe Mixon facing uncertain future Mon Jan 19, 12:36 AM
Houston Texans RB Joe Mixon (foot) might not play in the NFL again, according to ESPN's Aaron Schatz, who writes that Mixon's 'career might be over' after the veteran missed all of the 2025 season dealing with a foot injury.
| Footballguys view: Assuming that's the case, fantasy investors can expect the Texans to add more firepower in the backfield this offseason. Houston wasn't anticipating that Mixon would miss the season, so it made sense not to overly invest in the position in the 2025 offseason. The Texans drafted only Woody Marks in the fourth and signed Nick Chubb. Marks was second on the team in scrimmage yards (911), but ESPN.com's DJ Bien-Aime believes adding there could elevate the offseason in 2026. |

Rams | Rams survive to advance to NFC Championship Game Sun Jan 18, 10:12 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 20 of his 42 passes for 258 yards in a 20-17 overtime win over the Chicago Bears in the Divisional Round. RB Kyren Williams rushed for a team-high 87 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries and added four grabs four 30 yards. RB Blake Corum was held in check, finishing with six carries for 19 yards. WR Puka Nacua and TE Colby Parkinson tied for the team lead with 56 receiving yards. Parkinson caught three passes, and Nacua had five receptions to go along with two carries for six yards. Davante Adams was limited to two catches for 24 yards, and TE Tyler Higbee had just one catch for 27 yards. WR Jordan Whittington finished with two receptions for 35 yards. S Kamren Curl turned in a standout performance, logging a team-high 13 tackles, including seven solo stops, and an interception. LB Nathan Landman finished with 10 tackles, including five solo stops, and CB Cobie Durant had two tackles, three passes defensed and a pair of interceptions.
| Footballguys view: The Rams' offense -- a unit that led the league in offensive DVOA during the regular season -- struggled for much of their 20-17 divisional-round win against the Chicago Bears. Through three quarters, the Rams had 174 yards, their fewest of the season, according to ESPN Research. But the Rams' defense stepped up when they needed to most, with safety Kam Curl intercepting a Caleb Williams pass in overtime to give Los Angeles the ball back at their 22-yard line. While not a pretty game for the Rams, it was enough to send them to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since they won Super Bowl LVI during the 2021 season. Now get ready for Rams vs. Seahawks Part III. |

Bears | Chicago bounced from playoffs in overtime Sun Jan 18, 10:01 PM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams completed 23 of his 42 passes for 257 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in a 20-17 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round. He added 40 rushing yards on five carries. RB D'Andre Swift rushed 19 times for 76 yards, and RB Kyle Monangai chipped in 36 rushing yards on 13 carries and caught four passes for 36 yards. TE Colston Loveland caught four passes for a team-high 56 yards, and WR DJ Moore had 52 receiving yards and a touchdown on a team-high five catches. WR Rome Odunze gained 44 receiving yards on two receptions, WR Luther Burden III added three catches for 24 yards, and TE Cole Kmet finished with three grabs for 31 yards and a game-tying touchdown that forced overtime. S Jaquan Brisker led the way on defense with a team-high 14 tackles, including eight solo stops, a sack and two passes defensed. CB Kyler Gordon, DE Montez Sweat and DE Dominique Robinson all recorded a sack in the loss.
| Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Courtney Cronin wrote, "They were the Cardiac Bears until the very end." After facing a seven-point deficit late in the game, Williams squeezed one more drop of fourth-quarter magic when he found Kmet in the corner of the north end zone at Soldier Field for a 14-yard touchdown to force the extra period. The Bears failed to score after their sole possession of overtime ended with Williams throwing an interception, his third of the game. Nonetheless, Ben Johnson's first year with the Bears was a resounding success despite Chicago falling short of reaching the title game as the NFC's No. 2 seed. The Bears finished with 11 wins in the regular season and their first playoff win in 15 years when they beat the Packers in the wild-card round. |

Patriots | New England advances to AFC Championship Game Sun Jan 18, 06:22 PM
New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 16-of-27 passes for 179 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in the AFC Divisional Round playoff game against the Houston Texans, advancing to face the Denver Broncos on the road in the AFC Championship Game Sunday, Jan. 25. RB Rhamondre Stevenson (eye) returned to finish with 16 carries and 70 yards, while adding four receptions for 11 yards on four targets. Rookie RB TreVeyon Henderson had 12 runs for 25 yards, while adding a catch for minus-2 yards on two targets. WR Kayshon Boutte hauled in three receptions for a game-high 75 yards and a TD on five targets, with WR Stefon Diggs posted four receptions, 40 yards and a TD on a team-best six targets. WR DeMario Douglas also had two catches for 36 yards and a score, with TE Austin Hooper posting a 14-yard grab on two targets, TE Hunter Henry posting a 5-yard catch on two targets and CB Christian Gonzalez leading the team with nine total stops and six solo tackles with a pass defensed. CB Marcus Jones had two stops with two passes defensed and a 26-yard interception for touchdown.
| Footballguys view: Like the other teams remaining in these playoffs, the Patriots have their own flaws but have overcome them in resounding fashion through two playoff games by turning up the intensity defensively and riding the wave of excitement at home. They're now one game from returning to the Super Bowl -- Sunday's AFC Championship Game at the Bo Nix-less Denver Broncos -- a reality that would have been inconceivable just one year ago. |

Texans | Houston eliminated in AFC Divisional Round Sun Jan 18, 06:18 PM
Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud completed 20-of-47 passes for 212 yards, one touchdown and four interceptions in the AFC Divisional Round playoff game loss to the New England Patriots. RB Woody Marks rushed 14 times for just 17 yards, while posting two receptions for 19 yards, and RB Nick Chubb ran four times for 14 yards, while going without a catch on a single target. WR Jayden Higgins led the team with six receptions, 59 yards and 10 targets, while TE Dalton Schultz (calf) had two grabs for 47 yards before leaving with a calf injury. WR Xavier Hutchinson had four catches for 44 yards on 3 targets, TE Harrison Bryant had 21 yards on three catches with six targets and TE Cade Stover (knee) had a 2-yard reception on three targets before leaving with a knee ailment. WR Christian Kirk had two catches, 20 yards and a TD on six targets.
| Footballguys view: The Texans, who rolled into Foxboro on a 10-game win streak and with a defense playing as well as any defense east of Seattle, had a golden opportunity. But, as ESPN.com's Dan Graziano suggested, C.J. Stroud was catastrophically bad in the first half, throwing four interceptions and putting his team into a hole from which even its stifling defense could not extract itself. This performance came six days after Stroud fumbled five times and turned the ball over three times in a wild-card-round victory over the Steelers that was closer in the fourth quarter than it should have been. So, the Texans have work to do this offseason. |

49ers | San Francisco eliminated in emphatic fashion Sat Jan 17, 11:37 PM
San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy completed 15 of his 27 passes for 140 yards and an interception and rushed five times for 37 yards and lost a fumble in a 41-6 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the Divisional Round. RB Christian McCaffrey (stinger) dealt with a stinger but managed 11 carries for 35 yards and caught five passes for 39 yards, and RB Jordan James added six carries for 28 yards and caught a seven-yard pass. TE Jake Tonges (foot) caught five passes for a team-high 59 yards before exiting with a foot injury, and WR Jauan Jennings had two grabs for 23 yards. WR Ricky Pearsall and WR Kendrick Bourne were both targeted twice, but neither caught a pass, and WR Demarcus Robinson gained a yard on his only catch. LB Dee Winters tied for the team lead with nine tackles, including three tackles for loss, and LB Eric Kendricks also had nine stops. S Malik Mustapha chipped in eight tackles and a sack.
| Footballguys view: The 49ers offense came in shorthanded due to injuries and then lost Jake Tonges during the game and also didn't have Christian McCaffrey for part of the game. It was just too much for them to overcome against a great and balanced team like Seattle. The 49ers overachieved when you consider what they lost to injury, but the team needs to figure out what they seem to have such bad injury luck. |

Seahawks | Seattle cruises to NFC title game Sat Jan 17, 10:35 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold completed 12 of his 17 passes for 124 yards and a touchdown in a 41-6 win over the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round. RB Kenneth Walker III rushed 19 times for 106 yards and three touchdowns and caught three passes for 29 yards. WR Cooper Kupp caught five passes for a team-high 60 yards, and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba had three grabs for 19 yards and a score. WR Rashid Shaheed gained 27 yards on two carries, and he returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown. TE AJ Barner was not targeted, but he did have a two-yard carry. LB Ernest Jones IV had six tackles and an interception, and DL Leonard Williams and DL DeMarcus Lawrence both recorded a sack.
| Footballguys view: The Seahawks scored on the first play of the game when Rashid Shaheed return the kickoff for a score, and they were up 17-0 at the end of the first quarter. It just got worse from there for the 49ers. The Seahawks pass offense didn't have to break a sweat, so it wasn't a big statistical game for Sam Darnold, but Ken Walker dominated a banged up 49ers defense and Darnold didn't show ill effects from the oblique injury he suffered during the practice last week. The Seahawks will host the NFC title game next week. |

Broncos | Denver advances with overtime win Sat Jan 17, 08:19 PM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix completed 26 of his 46 passes for 279 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in a 33-30 overtime win over the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round. He also rushed 12 times for a team-high 29 yards. RB RJ Harvey finished with 20 rushing yards on six carries and caught five passes for 46 yards, and RB Jaleel McLaughlin gained 21 yards on four carries. WR Marvin Mims caught a touchdown while leading the team with both eight receptions and 93 receiving yards. WR Courtland Sutton finished with 53 yards on four receptions, and WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey caught two passes for 33 yards and a score. WR Pat Bryant (concussion) had three receptions for 32 yards before exiting the game, and TE Evan Engram caught one pass for seven yards. OT Frank Crum chipped in a seven-yard touchdown catch. On the defensive side of the ball, LB Alex Singleton led the way with a team-high 14 tackles, including 11 solo stops. S Talanoa Hufanga had 10 tackles, including seven solo stops, and forced a fumble. S P.J. Locke had nine tackles and an interception, and DE Malcolm Roach had five tackles, 1.5 sacks and three quarterback hits.
| Footballguys view: Nix made big throws in the first half and then late in the fourth quarter, but Josh Allen was able to overcome three turnovers in regulation to send the game to overtime. Nix led the team to a game-winning field goal after Allen's fourth turnover in overtime, but broke his ankle on the next to last play of the drive and will not be able to play in the AFC Championship game. Jarrett Stidham will start in the biggest game of his life as the Broncos will look to shock the football world by winning with their unheralded backup quarterback. |

He added 12 carries for 66 yards and lost two fumbles, and RB James Cook rushed 24 times for 117 yards, caught two passes for 24 yards and lost a fumble. RB Ray Davis didn't log a carry, but he did catch two passes for 33 yards. TE Dalton Kincaid caught six passes for a team-high 83 yards and a score, and WR Khalil Shakir finished with 75 receiving yards on a team-high seven receptions. WR Keon Coleman caught a 10-yard touchdown, and WR Mecole Hardan hauled in a four-yard score. TE Dawson Knox added three receptions for 32 yards, and WR Brandin Cooks caught two passes for 20 yards. S Cole Bishop recorded a team-high 12 tackles, including seven solo stops and two tackles for loss, and CB Cam Lewis finished with 10 tackles and two passes defensed.
| Footballguys view: A team can't expect to turn the ball over five times and win on the road in the playoffs, and yet the Bills had multiple to chance to do just that despite being down 23-10 in the second half. This one will haunt Josh Allen the most, as he hadn't committed a turnover in a long time in the postseason coming into this game. The Bills will go into another offseason wondering how to keep this from happening again. |
