Tom Brady throws one touchdown as Patriots advance to eight straight AFC title game.

Brady was 34/44 for 343 yards and a touchdown in the Divisional Round win versus the Chargers. From the start, Brady came out on fire, putting passes on point and leading New England to 35 first-half points. With all the misguided talk about Brady slipping, he looked as good as usual in today’s win. The score was to Phillip Dorsett on a corner route he put right on the money. We expect TB12 will be sharp in the AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs one week from today as he looks to advance to his ninth Super Bowl.

Dontrelle Inman (shoulder/finger) is officially active for today’s playoff game.

Inman was expected to be ready to go, and he’s indeed active for the Wild Card Round against the Texans. The midseason addition will be a key target for Andrew Luck throughout the postseason.

Mike Wallace (ankle) is officially inactive for the Divisional Round.

Wallace was limited in practice all week, so this isn’t surprising. The speedy veteran receiver will likely need to log a full practice before the Eagles consider making him active on gameday in a crowded receiving corps. Wallace will hope his team can advance to the NFC title game without him and potentially play next weekend.

Austin Ekeler gets 15 touches in playoff win versus the Ravens.

Ekeler carried 11 times for 29 yards along with four receptions for 14 yards in the Chargers’ Wild Card Round win. Baltimore keyed on stopping the second-year running back and did a good job of it, but Ekeler will look to find more room to run in the Divisional Round against the Patriots.

Hunter Henry (knee) is officially active for the Divisional Round.

Less than eight months after tearing his ACL during offseason training, Hunter has completed his extraordinary comeback to join the Chargers as they look to continue a run to the Super Bowl. Give LA credit for holding out hope for Henry to be able to play in the postseason instead of placing him on injured reserve (which would have meant he would have had to take up a designated-to-return spot and probably would’ve made it less likely he’d be able to play this season). The third-year tight end had 12 touchdowns in his first two seasons and is someone that can stretch the seams, so he should immediately be a big factor today against the Patriots in Foxboro. It’ll be great to see him on the field for the first time this season.

Jordan Wilkins sees zero touches in playoff loss.

Wilkins was targeted once, but didn’t record a carry or reception. The Ole Miss product showed some ability as a rookie, but at best, he will be the No. 3 back behind Marlon Mack and Nyheim Hines in 2019.

T.Y. Hilton (ankle) is officially active for the Wild Card Round.

Hilton was listed as questionable as he has been the last few weeks, but he’s ready to go as expected against the Texans. The speedy receiver has 1,445 yards and nine touchdowns in 14 carer games against Houston, and he showed up to NRG Stadium wearing a clown mask after Texans cornerback Jonathan Joseph called Hilton’s statement about NRG Stadium being his second home “for clowns,” so this should be a lot of fun.
