Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: There's little doubt that Darnold is going to play in the NFC Championship Game against the Rams. The divisional rivals know each other well and split the season series. So long as Darnold takes care of the ball, Seattle can advance to the Super Bowl. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson fully practices Thu Jan 22, 06:10 PM
New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (shoulder) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: Henderson can be a problem for the Broncos on Sunday. The rookie back can make a big play happen any time he touches the ball. Even splitting touches with Rhamondre Stevenson, Henderson could be a factor. |
Patriots | Limited practice for Mack Hollins Thu Jan 22, 05:58 PM
New England Patriots WR Mack Hollins (abdomen) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: Let's see if Hollins can get out there on Sunday against the Broncos. He's coming back from IR with this abdomen injury and not a lock to play. If he does play, Hollins will block (his forte) and be a deep threat for the Pats. |

Patriots | Hunter Henry remains limited Thu Jan 22, 05:53 PM
New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry (non-injury) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: Henry is a seasoned veteran getting some rest. He's good for the AFC Championship Game against the Broncos, and with their weakness covering tight ends he could have a big game. |

Broncos | Pat Bryant upgraded Thursday Thu Jan 22, 05:41 PM
Denver Broncos WR Pat Bryant (concussion) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Broncos here. Bryant was going to be a big part of their plan against the Bills but was concussed for the second time in about a month. He's been seen wearing a guardian cap in practice, and Bryant could wear one in the game to keep him better protected. |
Broncos | Troy Franklin limited again Thu Jan 22, 05:39 PM
Denver Broncos WR Troy Franklin (hamstring) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: It's not a guarantee Franklin plays on Sunday. Speedy receivers can be bothered more than others by hamstring injuries. Let's see what his status is like on Friday. |
Broncos | J.K. Dobbins listed as limited Thu Jan 22, 05:38 PM
Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) was limited during practice Thursday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: Dobbins is trying to come back for the AFC Championship. When he initially injured his foot, reports indicated he could return for the Super Bowl. Dobbins is positive about his status, but the team will make that decision later in the week. |

Seahawks | Kenneth Walker III could run wild Thu Jan 22, 12:20 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III faces the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game, and in two meetings with the Rams in the regular season, Walker rushed for 167 yards and two touchdowns on 27 carries and caught six passes for 108 yards.
| Footballguys view: Walker is a key player for the Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game. We'll see what the Rams have in store to stop the powerful runner. Without Zach Charbonnet, Walker is going to get a heavy workload on Sunday. |
Seahawks | AJ Barner a secret weapon Thu Jan 22, 12:20 PM
Seattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner faces the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game, and Barner recorded 14 receptions for 119 yards and a touchdown in the two meetings with the Rams in the regular season.
| Footballguys view: Barner is more accurately described as a not-so-secret weapon. The Rams are going to be ready for the Seahawks aerial attack, and that means they'll have a plan for Barner. |
Rams | Kyren Williams showing off versatility Thu Jan 22, 12:20 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams has caught at least three passes in four of his last five games, including the playoffs, after recording three or more receptions just twice in his first 14 games this season.
| Footballguys view: Williams can beat you as a runner or receiver out of the backfield. The Seahawks will have their hands full with Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, so getting some targets for Williams just makes sense. |
Texans | Tank Dell expected back for offseason program Thu Jan 22, 12:20 PM
Houston Texans WR Tank Dell (knee) is expected to be ready for offseason activities, according to general manager Nick Caserio. 'He worked very hard,' Caserio said. 'I think our performance group, they do a really good job. I would anticipate him being available for the offseason. Knowing Tank, he's probably cautiously optimistic that he's going to be able to go out there and be Tank Dell.'
| Footballguys view: Dell is coming back from a major knee injury suffered in the playoffs last year. He's an explosive player when healthy, and Dell gives CJ Stroud another dangerous weapon to target. |

Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua faces the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game, and Nacua had 19 receptions for 300 yards and two touchdowns in the two regular season meetings with Seattle.

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (shoulder) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 21.

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry (non-injury) was limited during practice Wednesday, Jan. 21.
| Footballguys view: Historically, the Broncos struggle to cover tight ends and Henry is one of the best. Expect QB Drake Maye to target him early and often against the Broncos in the AFC Championship on Sunday. |

Broncos | Limited practice for Troy Franklin Wed Jan 21, 06:33 PM
Denver Broncos WR Troy Franklin (hamstring) was limited during practice Wednesday, Jan. 21.
| Footballguys view: Franklin was out there, but a hamstring injury can really slow down a speedy receiver. Likely without Pat Bryant (concussion), it would help if Franklin can be ready for Sunday's AFC Championship against the Patriots. |
Broncos | J.K. Dobbins a limited participant Wed Jan 21, 06:30 PM
Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) was limited during practice Wednesday, Jan. 21.

Houston Texans TE Dalton Schultz's (calf) calf injury is not expected to be a long-term issue, according to general manager Nick Caserio.

| Footballguys view: Nobody is surprised by this after the 49ers put Aiyuk on the reserve/left squad list. Future guarantees in his contract are voided, and we'll see how the 49ers choose to resolve this issue with the talented yet oft-injured receiver. |

Buccaneers | Zac Robinson gets second interview for OC vacancy Wed Jan 21, 03:49 PM
Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson interviewed for the offensive coordinator vacancy of the Pittsburgh Steelers for a second time on Wednesday, Jan. 21.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is a Sean McVay disciple, but his offense did not pop with the Falcons. Perhaps that was the bad quarterback play, and it looks like the Steelers are quite interested. Running a McVay/Shanahan system, Robinson would emphasize wide-zone concepts and the ground game on offense. |

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (foot) might need a foot procedure in the offseason, according to general manager Brandon Beane.

After years of falling short with Sean McDermott, Allen is looking to make (and win) a Super Bowl for the first time in his career. |

Texans | More on Joe Mixon situation Wed Jan 21, 11:48 AM
Updating previous reports, Houston Texans RB Joe Mixon (foot) missed the entire season with a medical condition that didn't improve, according to general manager Nick Caserio. 'He wasn't doing anything irresponsible. It was a freak thing,' Caserio said.
| Footballguys view: Reports indicate Mixon got some treatment away from the facility, and that could lean the Texans to moving on from the veteran back. His future in Houston is unknown at this time, but Mixon is under contract with a $10.5 million cap hit and $2 million in dead money. |
