Rob Gronkowski catches one pass in playoff win.

It went for 25 yards and looked like a vintage Gronk run as he broke a couple tackles over the middle. And while the all-time great tight end isn’t the unstoppable receiving option he once was, Gronkowski has done tremendous work as a blocker, which will be key next week against the Chiefs. His outlook as a receiver would improve if Eric Berry (heel) misses another game.

Virgil Green catches one pass in the Chargers’ playoff victory.

Green gained eight yards on his lone Wild Card Round reception, but he lost a fumble on the play. Thankfully, it didn’t cost him and his team, so Green should certainly ensure he takes care of the ball in next weekend’s Divisional Round against New England.

Travis Kelce scores in AFC Championship Game.

Kelce caught a red-zone touchdown where he high-pointed the ball on a post route, something he’s done a lot throughout his career. But overall, the Patriots did a good job of limiting the All-Pro tight end in the Chiefs’ conference title game loss. Kelce had three receptions for 23 yards and a touchdown total. Heading into the 2019 season, Kelce will obviously be squarely in the debate for top fantasy tight end—a discussion that’s likely to include George Kittle and potentially Zach Ertz.

T.Y. Hilton catches five passes for 85 yards in Indy’s playoff win over the Texans.

Hilton went for 63 yards on the game’s opening drive, but Houston mostly contained him the rest of the way. Still, the Colts never looked back in a 21-7 victory, and T.Y. continues to be effective at less than 100%. Next week, Andrew Luck’s No. 1 target will hope to do damage against the top-seeded Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.

Keenan Allen scores in the Divisional Round.

Allen caught two passes for 75 yards and a touchdown in the Chargers’ playoff loss to the Patriots. The touchdown was on LA’s first offensive drive, as he beat All-Pro cornerback Stephon Gilmore on a double-move against zone coverage and got wide-open for a deep ball. Allen also caught two-point conversion on a crossing route. The matchup with Gilmore was obviously difficult, but Allen is a great receiver that isn’t easy to contain. The emergence of Mike Williams could be a slight concern in 2019, but Allen should offer a high floor in fantasy drafts this summer entering his age 27 season

Tyrell Williams catches two passes in Chargers’ playoff win.

Williams gained nine yards on his two receptions in the Wild Card Round win at Baltimore. He was also open on a potential touchdown deep ball in the game, but Philip Rivers was under pressure and couldn’t lay it out for him. Williams will look to make big plays next Sunday against the Patriots.

Spencer Ware (hamstring) was officially a full participant in today’s practice.

Remember, Ware was a full participant toward the end of the regular season and still didn’t play for Kansas City, so he’s still not a lock to play in the AFC Championship Game. Still, this is a good step in the right direction for his Sunday status. We’ll see how Ware is listed on the final injury report when it’s released tomorrow.
