Kenny Stills (knee) was officially limited in Tuesday’s practice.

Stills didn’t play last week with Houston locked into the No. 4 seed, so it’s unclear how big of an issue the knee injury is right now. The Texans are hoping one or both of Stills and Will Fuller (groin) will be on the field against the Bills this weekend.

Will Fuller (groin) was limited in today’s practice.

The Texans are hopeful that Fuller will be able to suit up on Saturday, but his history of soft tissue injuries makes it far from a lock. We’ll monitor Fuller’s participation over the next couple of days before the official injury report is released.

The Eagles signed Elijah Holyfield.

Holyfield signed with the Panthers after going undrafted this year, but now he lands with a playoff team as the Eagles’ fourth running back. Miles Sanders is banged up, but this could also indicate Jordan Howard’s shoulder isn’t where the team feels comfortable giving him a heavy workload. Holyfield is the son of legendary boxer Evander Holyfield, so he’ll probably be well liked in Philadelphia.

Miles Sanders has a low-grade ankle sprain, according to Tom Pelissero.

The good news should mean Sanders will be able to suit up in the Wild Card Round, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if his workload is dialed back with Boston Scott and Jordan Howard also in the backfield. Fortunately for Sanders and the Eagles, their game is the final one of the weekend, giving the rookie maximum recovery time.

Dalvin Cook (shoulder) says he’s “ready to go” for the postseason.

Cook sat out the final two games of the regular season, and this was fully expected given that his injury is something he might have played through if the Vikings needed wins to get into the playoffs. Expect the dynamic running back to be a big factor in this weekend’s Wild Card Round matchup at New Orleans.

The Seahawks are signing Jaylen Smith to the practice squad.

Perhaps Smith will be brought up to the active roster if Jaron Brown (knee) is unable to go this Sunday against the Eagles. Smith was a top target of Lamar Jackson’s at Louisville, but his production dipped when Jackson left school.

The Saints are signing Tim White to the practice squad.

New Orleans is adding depth to the organization ahead of a potential postseason run, but White probably wouldn’t get called up to the active roster if everyone remains healthy.
