He practiced in full on Friday after two limited sessions and figures to be a key figure in the Sunday Wild Card showdown with Jacksonville. The Bills will likely need him to pop a few big plays against the Jaguars split-safety coverages to spring a road win. This knee has kept Kincaid on the report often in the second half of the season and figures to be an issue again next week if the Bills advance.09 January 2026
He got in a limited Friday practice to hit the questionable line after a pair of missed sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. Even if Johnson is active, the Bills could lean a little more on Ray Davis if they don’t trust what the saw on Friday. Johnson’s hard to trust in DFS and Playoff Best Ball lineups this week.09 January 2026
Bernard injured the calf in Week 17 and has not practiced yet while earning a pair of rule-outs. Dorian Williams and Joe Andreessen saw all the linebacker snaps against the Jets in a meaningless Week 18, while we’d expect to see Shaq Thompson and Matt Milano out there for the Bills on Sunday against the Jaguars. Buffalo also ruled out 2025 first-round CB Maxwell Hairston (ankle), who injured himself late in Week 18.09 January 2026
Skattebo dislocated his ankle in late October and was given a 4-6 month recovery timetable at the time. “Getting my dorsiflexion in the foot is the main thing obviously,” Skattebo said. “I was stuck in a boot for eight weeks. Just strengthening it up. I broke my bone and dislocated my ankle. So anything you can imagine to get the ankle moving again is what I have to get up.” Given that this timetable would bump up against most May team activities, it’s possible the Giants play it slow ...09 January 2026
With a practice report of DNP-Full-DNP, we’re not entirely sure what to believe here. What we know is that if the Bills trust Prater to kick through this, they’ll roll with him on Sunday. If not, Matthew Wright will get the #RevengeGame honors against the Jaguars.09 January 2026
The Seahawks’ defense allowed the fewest yards per pass play (6.03) and run play (3.7) in Durde’s second season serving as the team’s defensive coordinator. He served as the Cowboys’ defensive line coach (2021-2023) and Falcons’ linebackers coach (2020) in his two prior stops.09 January 2026
He didn’t practice all week. The rookie would enter next week with a questionable tag if the Chargers survive in New England.09 January 2026
It’s great news for Herbert as Salyer is the best option the Chargers currently have at left tackle. He’ll be an incremental upgrade for Herbert after leaving Week 17’s loss to the Texans, likely sending Austin Deculus back to the bench. CB Donte Jackson (ankle) will also play in this one and was removed from the injury report as well.09 January 2026
The process for moving past fired DC Matt Eberflus is in its opening stages. Jones, 47, hasn’t called plays for a defense since his brief stint as LSU defensive coordinator in 2021. He does have plenty of high-level defensive experience and specializes in defensive back play, which makes him a good thought for a Cowboys back seven that figures to have a lot of turnover this offseason.09 January 2026
He was a limited participant in practice today, but told reporters he plans to play. It sure sounds like he’ll be playing through this on Sunday, which forecasts more work for the backups than it did in Hampton’s last healthy game where he handled 81 percent of the snaps against the Texans in Week 17. Hampton is Los Angeles’ best back, but we expect a healthy dose of Kimani Vidal along side him if Hampton plays on Sunday.09 January 2026

Terrell, then Commanders receivers coach, got a request for the Cardinals OC job before coming over to join Jonathan Gannon’s staff when Ron Rivera was fired. It sounds like with the Cardinals in the midst of a regime change of their own, Terrell has a chance to be considered for their OC role or perhaps reprise his passing-game coordinator role for the Commanders. They also interviewed in-house candidates, some of which are speculated to be David Blough, Brian Johnson, and Anthony Lynn, for t ...09 January 2026
Harbaugh is probably awaiting to see if any other openings hit before he figures out his full plan of attack, but with nine teams already interested it seems safe to say that Harbaugh will be the one candidate this cycle who can name his own terms about who he’d like to work with, and seems likely to land an eight-figure contract when it is all said and done. Raanan adds that the Giants “want Harbaugh badly.”09 January 2026
Not that this is unexpected news, but Monken does appear to be very publicly saying that he won’t return to his post as Ravens OC after the firing of John Harbaugh. Monken has a history of coordinating good NFL offenses and would be an interesting pickup for a number of teams in need of a good play caller on that side of the ball.09 January 2026
It sure doesn’t feel like Brady has had his best season as Bills fans have watched the team struggle to put together any kind of passing attack beyond Josh Allen Hero Ball, but he apparently remains top of mind for Baltimore. To his credit, the Bills did generate top-of-league rushing yardage for James Cook this year. As a fantasy football website, we’d love to see that kind of commitment to Derrick Henry.09 January 2026
The good news for the Patriots is that Robert Spillane (ankle) practiced in full and appears likely to play on Sunday, giving them one of their two big run stuffers back against the Chargers. Mike Vrabel also said that OLB/DE Harold Landry (knee) was questionable for the Wild Card Round.09 January 2026
Boutte was added to the injury report with a limited session on Thursday and is now in some question for this week’s game. Kyle Williams is probably who the Patriots would turn to alongside Stefon Diggs and Pop Douglas if Boutte couldn’t go. New England’s outside receiver room has taken a beating of late with Mack Hollins already on injured reserve and Boutte struggling to play for most of the last four weeks.09 January 2026
It seems like Hampton is going to make the questionable line despite not practicing in either of the first two sessions of the week, but beyond that we couldn’t speculate much on his chances at playing time at this moment. We’ll get a second update later today when the injury report comes down, but Hampton is officially on shaky ground as a Playoff Best Ball/DFS play this weekend.09 January 2026
Minter’s Chargers finished 10th in defensive DVOA in 2025 and and ninth in 2024. It’s hard to believe that the Browns would prefer him to an offensive mind when Jim Schwartz is literally in the building, but it’s not completely implausible. Minter is starting to pick up interview requests ahead of this Sunday night’s game against the Patriots on NBC.09 January 2026
Minter has had a pair of top-10 DVOA defense finishes as Chargers defensive coordinator. He’s already been leaked as a favorite for the Ravens job by The Baltimore Sun, but if he chooses to expand his dance card, the Titans apparently are devoted to conducting one of the most expansive first interview cycles in recent memory.
