The Titans are activating Derrick Henry (foot) from injured reserve.

This was the expectation since Henry was designated to return to close out the regular season, and the Titans will have their monster runner back ahead of tomorrow’s Divisional Round matchup versus Cincinnati. Henry will likely have a limited workload in his return to the field, but he can still go off on limited touches and will obviously change the way the Bengals have to defend the Tennessee offense.

Randall Cobb is expected to play in the Divisional Round.

Things have been trending this way, and Packers head coach Matt LaFleur expects Cobb to be out there against the Niners on Saturday night. The veteran receiver will be a trusted target for Aaron Rodgers as the Packers look to get back to the NFC title game. Cobb had core muscle surgery seven weeks ago.

The Buccaneers are activating Giovani Bernard (knee) from injured reserve.

Bernard is back for the start of the playoffs, and he should mostly serve as a key underneath target for Tom Brady starting tomorrow against the Eagles.

The Steelers are officially activating JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) from injured reserve.

This was the expectation, and JuJu will officially play tomorrow night against the Steelers. It’s a great return for Smith-Schuster at the start of the postseason after missing most of the year with a serious shoulder injury. JuJu should be a boost for Pittsburgh in middle of the field.

Miles Sanders will play in the Wild Card Round.

As Sanders said earlier today, he’d playing in the first round of the playoffs this Sunday at Tampa Bay. Sanders is officially off the injury report and is ready to go. He’ll look to do damage against a Bucs run defense that hasn’t been quite as dominant as of late.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) has been ruled out for the Wild Card Round.

The hope was that Edwards-Helaire would be able to play against the Steelers on Sunday night, but his shoulder unfortunately has not responded well enough, and the Chiefs are ruling him out ahead of the weekend. Hopefully the second-year back can potentially play next weekend if the Chiefs are able to advance.

JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) has returned to practice.

This is an unforeseen surprise with Smith-Schuster thought to be done for the season, but he’ll now have a chance to return for Pittsburgh in the playoffs if he’s eventually activated from injured reserve. If nothing else, JuJu being back at practice will give Kansas City something else to think about when they game plan this week, and Smith-Schuster’s presence could be an added morale boost for the underdog Steelers.
