The Panthers put up a fight and can be excited about what they're building for the future. |

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford went 24-for-42 for 304 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Carolina Panthers in the Wild Card playoff game.

| Footballguys view: Stafford struggled at times, but he led the team to the win late in the fourth quarter. Nacua and Adams were stars at the wide receiver position, and guys like Higbee and Parkinson made plays when they needed to at tight end. The Rams get this tough win on the road as they continue to march towards a Super Bowl. |

Dallas Cowboys impending free-agent WR George Pickens is believed to be a likely candidate for the franchise tag this offseason, according to ESPN.com's Dan Graziano.
| Footballguys view: Pickens (a second-round pick of the Steelers in 2022) is set to be an urestricted free agent in 2026. He had career-high numbers in catches (93), yardage (1,429), and receiving touchdowns (9). A tag would next Pickens a one-year deal around $28 million for 2026. If tagged, Pickens and the Cowboys would have until mid-July to get a long-term contract done. |

San Francisco 49ers WR Ricky Pearsall (ankle, knee) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 9, and is listed as questionable for the Wild Card playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Given the nature of Pearsall's injuries this season, it's really difficult to trust him in fantasy lineups, even if he is active. If he plays, he'll likely take a backseat to Jauan Jennings, George Kittle, and Christian McCaffrey in the receiving game. |

New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) was limited during practice Friday, Jan. 9, and is listed as questionable for the Wild Card playoff game.
| Footballguys view: A mid-week addition to the injury report is never a good thing, and Boutte hasn't logged a full practice since being added to Thursday's report. If he's active, there's a chance that he's limited. He's a risky start this weekend against the Chargers. |

New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 8.
| Footballguys view: Being added to the injury report during the week of a Wild Card game is not a good sign. He's been bothered by hamstring injuries before and had to miss time because of them. His ability to take off the top can come in handy when you have a strong-armed QB like Drake Maye. Boutte is in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Chargers. |
