Dean (hamstring) practiced in full Thursday.
Dean missed two straight games to close out the regular season, but the starting linebacker appears back to full health and ready to return to action for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the 49ers. Across 10 regular-season appearances in 2025, Dean tallied 55 tackles (30 solo), including a career-high 4.0 sacks, plus one pass defensed and two forced fumbles.
