Los 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. |

Bears | DJ Moore on track to play Fri Jan 16, 02:34 PM
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. |

Las Vegas Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty gained 863 of his 975 rushing yards after contact in 2025.
| Footballguys view: The Raiders did not do a great job of opening holes for Jeanty. He did a lot of the work on his own, and Jeanty showed why the Raiders selected him in the top 10. Jeanty is a low-end RB1 for Fantasy GMs in 2026, but we'd feel better about him if we knew the quarterback situation. |

Chicago Bears TE Colston Loveland's 597 receiving yards from Week 9 onward were the second most among all tight ends, trailing only Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride.
| Footballguys view: Loveland had a strong finish to his rookie year. He's one of the best young tight ends in the game, and his play has helped the Bears win a ton of games. We're excited for him in the rest of the playoffs and in 2026's regular season. Loveland should be considered a TE1 for Fantasy GMs in the summer. |
