Houston Texans rookie running back Woody Marks finished his first season in the NFL with 911 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 220 touches across 16 games. Marks finished the year as the clear RB1 in Houston, earning double-digit touches in 10 out of his last 11 contests. He may see an even larger workload in Houston's Wild Card round matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, as Texans backup running back Jawhar Jordan (ankle) has been ruled out with an ankle injury. The Pittsburgh rush defense finished a solid-but-unspectacular 13th in the NFL in total rushing yards allowed (1,922) in the regular season. However, the Steelers proved difficult to score on on the ground, allowing the third-fewest rushing touchdowns (10) in the league. Marks is a good bet to see a heavy workload against Pittsburgh, but he may have to rely on volume alone for fantasy production. RotoBaller projects Marks as the overall RB10 in full PPR scoring for his matchup against the Steelers.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) is set to undergo an MRI on his injured knee on Monday, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Davis was carted off from Buffalo's Wild Card round win over the Jacksonville Jaguars after taking a big hit going over the middle of the field. Rapoport reports that Davis' knee was so swollen initially that diagnosing the injury has been difficult, and that Davis' status "does not look good" for the remainder of the postseason. The 26-year-old recorded two receptions for 14 yards on three targets against Jacksonville before getting injured and hauled in 12 catches for 129 yards and a touchdown across six regular-season games with the Bills. If Davis is unable to play in the AFC Divisional round against the Denver Broncos, the Bills will likely rely more heavily on wide receivers Brandin Cooks, Keon Coleman, and Tyrell Shavers.

San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy completed 18-of-31 passes for 262 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions, while running nine times for 24 yards, in the NFC Wild Card game road win against the Philadelphia Eagles. RB Christian McCaffrey rushed 15 times for 48 yards, while posting six receptions for 66 yards and two touchdowns, including a 29-yard TD from WR Jauan Jennings. The latter had one reception for 45 yards on three targets and the scoring strike. WR Demarcus Robinson led the way with six receptions for 111 yards and a touchdown on seven targets, while FB Kyle Juszczyk absorbed all four targets for 49 yards, with TE Jake Tonges posted a 14-yard catch on three targets, stepping in for TE George Kittle (Achilles), who had one grab for six yards before leaving with a ruptured Achilles. LB Garret Wallow had 11 total stops with five solo tackles and a pass defensed, while LB Eric Kendricks, a former Eagle, had 10 total stops with seven solo tackles, two stops for loss and a pass break-up to seal the win.

Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts completed 20-of-35 passes for 168 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in an NFC Wild Card game loss against the San Francisco 49ers, while running five times for 14 yards. RB Saquon Barkley rushed 26 times for a game-high 106 yards with three receptions for 25 yards on six targets. RB Tank Bigsby had four runs for 19 yards, with RB Will Shipley chipping in with a 6-yard grab on his lone touch and target. WR DeVonta Smith posted team bests with eight receptions and 70 yards on 11 targets, while new dad TE Dallas Goedert had four receptions for 33 yards and a TD, while also running for a 1-yard score. WR A.J. Brown had three receptions for 25 yards on seven targets, but he also had a key drop in the fourth quarter and a shouting match with head coach Nick Sirianni during the game. WR Darius Cooper had a 9-yard catch on his only target, while WR Jahan Dotson didn't have a catch on his lone target. DB Quinyon Mitchell had two interceptions and three passes defensed, while DE Jalen Carter had three total stops, a solo tackle, a sack, a tackle for loss and a QB hit.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden displayed his versatility and developed a strong connection with Justin Herbert during the 2025 NFL season. The 22-year-old had 49 catches for 664 yards and three touchdowns on 69 targets. Gadsden was a pleasant surprise for fantasy managers who were able to snipe him off waivers in his rookie season. Entering Wild Card Weekend, Gadsden will face a solid New England Patriots defense. The Patriots' defense allowed the fourth-fewest rushing touchdowns and the sixth-fewest rushing yards, while having one of the NFL's mild passing defenses. This could favor the Gadsden and the Chargers' passing attack. If the Chargers have a slow start running the football, they could turn Herbert's arm loose early. Gadsden could see a good number of targets against an average NFL passing defense in his first playoff game.

Cincinnati Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson is not expected to be back with the Bengals in 2026, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, who writes that 'the relationship has run its course.' The team does have the option to utilize the franchise tag on Hendrickson, but he's 'poised to land elsewhere.'

Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert is set to become a free agent this offseason, and he'll only be back with the Eagles if he's willing to sign a 'team-friendly' deal, in the opinion of ESPN's Dan Graziano.

Dynasty | Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 24-of-42 passes for 304 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in a playoff win against the Panthers. Dynasty Analysis: It was much of the same for Stafford, who threw for 4,707 yards with a whopping 46 touchdowns and eight interceptions on the season. The 37-year old is certainly nearing the end of the line and nearly retired last season but the Rams are again just two wins away from the Super Bowl and Stafford is doing his best to get them there. His dynasty value is set as this seems like a year-year-situation.

Dynasty | Panthers receiver Jalen Coker caught nine passes for 134 yards with one touchdown in a loss to the Rams. Dynasty Analysis: Coker only had 33 catches for 394 yards and three touchdowns this season as a fringe dynasty asset, so this was obviously a pretty big surprise. Still just 24 years old, this performance likely cements his spot on deep dynasty rosters going into next season.

Dynasty | Packers quarterback Jordan Love completed 24-of-46 passes for 323 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in a playoff loss to Chicago. Dynasty Analysis: Love did his part but his defense let him down as the Bears scored 25 points in the 4th quarter to win 31-27. Love may have hit his dynasty apex as a low-end QB1 based on what's happened over the past three seaons but you could certainly do worse in your starting lineup. His dynasty value will likely stay about the same this off-season.

Dynasty | Bears tight end Colston Loveland had eight catches for 137 yards in a playoff win over the Packers. Dynasty Analysis: Loveland started out slowly this year but broke out in a big way over the back half of the season. This monster performance in the playoffs solidifies his status as a TE1 going into next year. He'll have a chance to prove it once again next week as the Bears face the Rams for a spot in the NFC Championship game. The buy low window on Loveland is clearly closed.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Packers rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden had four catches for 84 yards and a touchdown in a playoff loss to the Bears. Dynasty Analysis: Golden's season was a massive disappointment as he posted just 29 catches for 361 scoreless yards in 14 games this season. This was at least a step in the right direction but his performance as a first round rookie pick still lacked a lot of sizzle. The Packers could look a lot different next year and Golden is simply a hold at the moment as his ADP and ranking took a sizable hit this season.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams led his team to yet another comeback win in impressive fashion in the 31-27 victory over the division-rival Green Bay Packers on Saturday night in the Wild-Card round of the playoffs. Williams finished 24-for-48 passing for a season-high 361 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. He added four carries for 20 yards and also took one sack for a loss of nine yards. The 24-year-old second-year signal-caller also fumbled, but it was recovered by the Bears. It was the Bears' single-game playoff passing-yardage record. It wasn't pretty, but Williams continues to display his elite athleticism by extending the play outside the pocket to find his receivers deep down the field. The USC alum could get into a shootout with the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round, giving him plenty of fantasy upside. Williams has now gone over 300 passing yards in two of his last three games, with six touchdowns and three interceptions combined in his last three contests.

New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 17 of his 29 passes for 268 yards, a touchdown and an interception, and he rushed seven times for a team-high 69 yards in a 16-3 win over the Los Angeles Chargers in the Wild Card game. Maye also lost a fumble. RB Rhamondre Stevenson finished with 10 carries for 53 yards and caught three passes for a team-best 75 yards, and RB TreVeyon Henderson gained just 11 yards on seven carries while catching one pass for nine yards. WR Kayshon Boutte hauled in four passes for 66 yards, and TE Hunter Henry turned three catches into 64 yards and a score. WR Stefon Diggs was limited to 16 yards on two receptions, and Efton Chism III caught a 20-yard pass and failed to complete his only pass attempt. WR Kyle Williams ended up with one catch for seven yards, and WR Demario Douglas gained three yards on his only catch. S Craig Woodson's 11 tackles led the team, and his seven solo stops were also a high mark for New England. The Patriots combined for six sacks and 11 quarterback hits, and DT Milton Williams and LB K'Lavon Chaisson both notched a pair of sacks.

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert completed 19 of his 31 passes for 159 yards, rushed 10 times for 57 yard and was sacked six times and lost a fumble in a 16-3 loss to the New England Patriots in the Wild Card game. RB Omarion Hampton attempted to play through an ankle injury but lost a yard on his only carry, and RB Kimani Vidal rushed 11 times for 31 yards and caught two passes for 20 yards. WR Ladd McConkey had three grabs for a team-high 32 yards, and TE Oronde Gadsden II chipped in three catches for 20 yards. WR Keenan Allen finished with three catches for 25 yards on a team-high eight targets, and Quentin Johnston hauled in three passes for 20 yards. LB Daiyan Henley logged a game-high 13 tackles, including nine solo stops, and added an interception, and LB Odafe Oweh delivered four tackles and three sacks. DT Teair Tart piled up four tackles, including two tackles for loss, a sack and a pass defensed.

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland caught eight of his 15 targets for 137 yards during Saturday's Wild Card win over the Green Bay Packers. Loveland's impressive rookie campaign continued as he set new personal-best marks in targets and yards. He now has 24 catches, 322 yards, and two touchdowns over his last three games. According to Jacob Gibbs of CBS Sports, the 21-year-old's big game made him just the second tight end in NFL history to record at least 10 targets and at least 130 yards in a playoff game at age 22 or younger. He joins just Rob Gronkowski in that select group. Loveland will look to remain hot as the Bears advance to face either the Eagles or Rams in the Divisional Round next weekend.

New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez (head) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's playoff contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. He is officially listed as questionable to return. Gonzalez left the game after breaking up a pass attempt on second down. At the time of his departure, he had defended two passes. The 23-year-old didn't record an interception during the regular season, but he was named to the AFC Pro Bowl roster and is consistently relied upon to cover opponents' No. 1 receivers. His absence will be something to monitor as the Patriots look to defend a three-pronged wide receiver room featuring Ladd McConkey, Keenan Allen, and Quentin Johnston. Charles Woods should earn more cornerback snaps behind Carlton Davis and Marcus Jones.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard tallied 13 carries, 46 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns during Saturday's Wild Card loss against the Los Angeles Rams. He also caught two of four targets for an additional 13 receiving yards. Hubbard lost his lead-back role to Rico Dowdle during the middle of the season, but he seemed to reclaim his top spot over the final few weeks. As the Panthers were eliminated on Saturday, Hubbard registered 15 touches while Dowdle had just six. Dowdle is an impending free agent, so Hubbard should be a fringe top-24 fantasy running back heading into 2026 fantasy football drafts. It's unclear whether Jonathan Brooks (knee) or Trevor Etienne will be able to carve out a role next year.
