George Kittle

SF Tight End #85

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

49ers TE George Kittle (ankle) was limited on Thursday.

Kittle is on track to play, though it would be great to see him practice fully on Friday. The 49ers could be short-staffed when they face the Eagles this week. No. 1 WR Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) has not yet resumed practicing since aggravating the PCL sprain in his knee in Week 17.
Ricky Pearsall

SF Wide Receiver #1

49ers WR Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) did not practice on Thursday.

Pearsall is now on the wrong side of questionable for the 49ers’ Wild Card Round game against the Eagles. The 49ers’ talented route runner aggravated his PCL sprain in Week 17 against the Bears and was unable to play on it last week. It is possible that the team is just taking it easy with him, but things are not looking good.
Mike McCarthy

FA Head Coach

Titans will interview former Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy for their head-coaching vacancy.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that the interview will take place “next Saturday.” McCarthy worked with Titans president of football operations Chad Brinker during their time together with the Packers. Whether that gives McCarthy an edge remains to be seen. The Titans are casting a wide net. McCarthy will also interview for the Giants’ open role.
Omarion Hampton

LAC Running Back #8

Chargers RB Omarion Hampton (ankle) did not practice on Thursday.

This is unfortunate. Chargers OC Greg Roman told reporters, before practice, that RB Hampton would be “involved some today” in practice. Instead, Hampton worked off to the side. Roman added that Hampton is “working through his process with the medical group” and is “ready mentally with the game plan.” That last bit makes it sound like Hampton is preparing as though he really does have a chance to play. Two absences to begin the week are worrying, though. No. 2 RB Kimani Vidal would likely operate as the team’s starter if Hampton is unable to face the Patriots this week.
Dallas Goedert

PHI Tight End #88

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (knee) was limited on Thursday.

Goedert, 31, is now up to two limited sessions in the lead-up to the Eagles’ Wild Card Round game against the 49ers. We expect Goedert to suit up. Although we would like to see him practicing fully, the team could just be limiting the veteran player’s reps.
David Montgomery

DET Running Back #5

Lions general manager Brad Holmes said the team will have an “in-depth” discussion about RB David Montgomery’s future in Detroit this offseason.

Montgomery is under contract through 2027. The Lions can save $11.26 million by cutting him this offseason, while taking on $8.6 million in dead money. Holmes adds that the Lions “love” Montgomery and believe “he deserves to be in a situation where his skill set can be utilized.” Montgomery operated as the team’s No. 2 running back this season, totaling 182 touches—far fewer than the 221 and 235 he logged in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Lions could choose to look for a complementary power back to partner with RB Jahmyr Gibbs in the draft this offseason.
Kliff Kingsbury

FA Offensive Coordinator

Ravens and Titans requested to interview former Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury for their head-coaching vacancies.

Both teams have been linked to Kingsbury in prior reports, as have the Giants. The former Commanders offensive coordinator continues to get head-coaching buzz. Another interview or two seems likely. Kingsbury’s offense delivered up-and-down results over the last two seasons, though injuries played a large role in 2025.
Davante Adams

LA Wide Receiver #17

Rams WR Davante Adams (hamstring) is not on Los Angeles’ final Wild Card injury report.

Adams looks likely to be full-go from the jump after three full sessions of practice this week. He probably could have played at any point after the Rams’ unfortunate Week 16 loss to Seattle, but there wasn’t much reason for him to risk it. He’ll be one of the top playoff best ball picks and DFS plays for this week with a solid matchup against the Panthers pass defense.
Jaylen Warren

PIT Running Back #30

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (illness) did not practice on Thursday.

Warren was spotted with a mask and gloves on in the locker room. Most of the time, players play through illness in playoff games. We’d expect at worst Warren winds up with a questionable tag on Saturday and plays, so we’re not overly concerned about the illness.
Trent Williams

SF OFFENSIVE TACKLE (SUB) #71

49ers LT Trent Williams (hamstring) was seen practicing on Thursday.

Outstanding. Williams may only participate in a limited capacity today, but his return is promising. Williams is no stranger to playing through injury, though this is his first career hamstring strain. His 49ers squad faces the Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Hopefully, he upgrades to full participation tomorrow and remains setback-free.
