Who’s in, who’s out, who’s still in question for the Wildcard Round
After an exciting regular season, we’ve reached the start of what should be an even more thrilling postseason with plenty of powerhouse teams. The action kicks off with a six-game Super Wild Card Weekend, and we’ve got the latest on key players sporting injury designations for the high-stakes first-round matchups as of Saturday morning:
Wildcard Injuries
Injury Report Update
Kickers
The Titans’ Nick Folk (abdomen) remains out for Sunday’s game against the Texans after sandwiching a pair of absences around a limited Thursday practice this week. Matthew Wright, who made both of his field-goal attempts and his one PAT in Week 17 against the Jaguars, will serve as Tennessee’s placekicker for a second straight week.
The Jets’ Greg Zuerlein (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, ending his season. Greg Joseph, who was promoted from the practice squad, will serve as New York’s placekicker for Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Dolphins.
The Cardinals’ Matt Prater (knee) is out for Sunday’s game against the 49ers despite practicing in limited fashion all week. Prater’s absence to close out the season means Chad Ryland, who’s gone an impressive 26-for-30 on field-goal attempts for Arizona, will once again serve as the placekicker for the finale versus San Francisco.
