The Wild Card round is over, and the divisional round is upon us. While most players avoided injury, that isn’t to say that there aren’t some we need to keep our eyes on for playoff fantasy football. With just 3 more weeks of football, each game is magnified that much more.

Let’s dive in.
 

 


 

NFL Divisional Round Injury Report: Quarterbacks

Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams

Stafford is dealing with a finger sprain on his throwing hand, but he will be good-to-go against the Chicago Bears in the divisional round. That said, factoring in potential grip issues with the expected single-digit weather in Chicago, we may see more struggles than we’re used to.

NFL Divisional Round Injury Report: Wide Receivers

Ricky Pearsall, San Francisco 49ers

Pearsall is once again dealing with the PCL injury that has hampered him multiple times this year. It’s currently unclear if he’ll return to play this season. 

Gabe Davis, Buffalo Bills

Davis had rejoined the Bills and had been earning some work, but suffered a torn ACL in the Wild Card Round and will be out for the remainder of the playoffs.

 

 


 

NFL Divisional Round Injury Report: Tight Ends

George Kittle, San Francisco 49ers

Kittle suffered a torn Achilles tendon, unfortunately ending his season. The 49ers will turn to Jake Tonges as the starter for the rest of the playoffs.

Dalton Kincaid, Buffalo Bills

Kincaid was spotted in a walking boot after their win over the Jaguars. Coach Sean McDermott has stated that this was precautionary, but it’s important to keep this in mind given the oft-injured season Kincaid has had.
