The injury issues aren’t too bad for this week’s playoff games. This is great news to see teams near full strength for the big games. Now let’s hope the games are more competitive for than last weekend. Here is the latest injury news from around the league. . . . .

Gabe Davis, WR, Bills. Davis is not looking great to return from his knee injury this week. He missed last week and is not practicing to start the week. The Bills are calling him day-to-day but he will need to start doing something in practice in a hurry if he hopes to play this week.

Devin Duvernay, WR, Ravens. Duvernay is practicing in full this week. He has a legit chance to return from his back injury. He has not played in a game since Week 14. But even if active, Duvernay is not likely to have a big role in the game, being pretty far down the depth chart at receiver for the Ravens.

Skyy Moore, WR, Chiefs. Moore is back practicing with the team but isn’t a sure thing to be active for the game this week. He will need to be activated from Injured Reserve before the week is out for that to happen. Moore is trying to return from a knee injury. We should know his status before the week is out, so keep an eye on the player notes for the latest.

AJ Dillon, RB, Packers. Dillon still isn’t practicing because of thumb and neck injuries. He is looking likely to miss another week of action unless he has a big turnaround before the week is out. Look for Aaron Jones to handle most of the work at running back for the Packers once again.

Jaire Alexander, CB, Packers. Alexander left last week’s game early because of shoulder and ankle injuries. He is not practicing this week just yet, but it would be a surprise if he isn’t active for the game this weekend. Alexander is one of the top cover corners in the league and the Packers will need him on the field if they hope to have a chance to win against the 49ers.

Chris Godwin, WR, Bucs. Godwin missed practice Wednesday because of a knee injury. We don’t think this ailment is too serious, though. He is likely being held out as a precaution as much as anything. As long as he gets in some sort of practice in the coming days, look for Godwin to play and play his usual role. 

Mark Andrews, TE, Ravens. Andrews preached in full Wednesday, which is a great sign for him. He has a real chance to return from his broken leg this week. The Ravens are still calling him day-to-day but if he keeps progress, look for Andrews to play. He might have a bit of a reduced role in the game if active, though, after missing so much time.

Zay Flowers, WR, Ravens. Flowers was held out of the last game of the season because of a calf injury, but that was more of a precaution than anything. He is practicing in full and should be just fine for this week’s game. Flowers should be the top target at receiver for the Ravens once again.

Christian McCaffrey, RB, 49ers. McCaffrey is dealing with a minor calf strain, but seems over the injury. He is practicing in full and expected to carry his usual workload in the game. This injury seems to be a thing of the past for McCaffrey, which is great news for the 49ers offense.
