Eagles DT Mike Patterson will undergo surgery “in the next couple weeks” to remove the AVM from his brain.

The brain AVM -- a tangle of blood vessels -- was found when Patterson had a training-camp seizure. He still played the entire season, racking up 35 tackles, 2.5 sacks, and a forced fumble in 15 starts. “Usually they say once one seizure happens another one can occur, so I feel real blessed,” Patterson said. The recovery can span anywhere from one to six months.

Patriots CB Carlton Davis (concussion) is not on New England’s injury report for the AFC Championship Game against the Broncos.

Earlier today, Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said Davis would be listed as questionable, but Davis ended up clearing the NFL’s concussion protocol this afternoon. Davis leads the team with 12 pass breakups this year. His return is good news for the Patriots’ defense.

Marcus Dixon

MIN Coaching Staff
Cowboys requested an interview with Vikings DL coach Marcus Dixon for their potential defensive line coach vacancy.

Cowboys DL coach Aaron Whitecotton is “drawing interest” from the Titans as they search for a defensive coordinator under new head coach Robert Saleh. Rather than waiting to find out if Whitecotton leaves, the Cowboys are proactively starting their own search for his potential replacement. ESPN’s Todd Archer notes that Dixon coached the Broncos’ defensive line from 2022-2023, while new Cowboys DC Christian Parker coached Broncos defensive backs.

Luke Wattenberg

DEN Center #60

Broncos C Luke Wattenberg (shoulder) is questionable to play in the AFC Championship Game against the Patriots.

Wattenberg practiced fully all week, so he is seemingly on track to face the Patriots in the AFC Championship Game. Getting their stud center back on the field would be great news for the Broncos’ offense, particularly fill-in QB Jarrett Stidham.
