Charbonnet will get imaging done on his knee after departing Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Head coach Mike Macdonald was optimistic that Charbonnet's knee was structurally intact following Saturday's win against San Francisco. However, that will be confirmed through imaging. Charbonnet's status is seemingly up in the air for the NFC Championship Game, but there should be some additional clarity early in the week.

Cross exited Saturday's divisional-round game versus the 49ers with a foot injury and is considered questionable to return, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.

It wouldn't be surprising if Cross doesn't re-enter the game with the Seahawks maintaining a 28-point lead at the time of this report. The Mississippi State product has been a key part of Seattle's reinvigorated offensive line that helped the team earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC. His status will be worth monitoring if the Seahawks move on to the NFC Championship Game. Josh Jones (knee) is inactive, so undrafted rookie Amari Kight will fill in for the remainder of the game if Cross doesn't return.

McCaffrey (shoulder) returned to Saturday's divisional-round game against the Seahawks, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

McCaffrey missed two drives for the 49ers but was able to check back in midway through the third quarter after dealing with a stinger. He should serve as the team's lead back, though the injury may limit his reps.

Tonges is questionable to return to Saturday's divisional-round game against the 49ers due to a foot injury, Eric Williams of NFL on FOX reports.

Tonges suffered a non-contact injury early in the third quarter. He was able to hobble off the field and was spotted running up and down the sideline. Tonges was already filling in for the injured George Kittle (Achilles), so the 49ers could have a depleted tight end room for the rest of this matchup.

McLaughlin rushed four times for 21 yards, failed to bring in his only target and ran back three kickoffs for 59 yards in the Broncos' 33-30 overtime divisional-round win against the Bills on Saturday.

The reserve running back logged only two fewer carries than backfield mate RJ Harvey while also providing a 27-yard kickoff return among his three runbacks. McLaughlin is likely ticketed for single-digit carries and a special-teams role again in an upcoming AFC Championship Game clash versus either the Texans or Patriots, although it's possible the ground attack as a whole is relied on more with Jarrett Stidham taking over at quarterback for Bo Nix, who'll be sidelined until next season due to an ankle fracture he suffered in overtime.

Humphrey brought in two of five targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the Broncos' 33-30 overtime divisional-round win over the Bills on Saturday.

The veteran journeyman delivered with a 29-yard scoring grab just before halftime, his first touchdown since Week 15 and only his second since the start of a regular season he opened with the Giants. Humphrey is likely set for another modest complementary role in the upcoming AFC Championship Game matchup against either the Texans or Patriots, but he'll operate with Jarrett Stidham as his quarterback following Bo Nix's postseason-ending ankle fracture Saturday.

Knox brought in three of five targets for 32 yards in the Bills' 33-30 divisional-round overtime loss to the Broncos on Saturday.

Knox put together a three-catch effort for the second time in as many postseason contests. However, his day, and that of the Bills, would have been much bigger had Josh Allen not missed him as he ran down the seam and toward the end zone on a third-down play with 16 seconds remaining in regulation and Buffalo trailing by three. Knox's solid postseason was preceded by his most productive regular season since 2022, as he posted a 36-417-4 line on 49 targets across 17 games.

McCaffrey is questionable to return to Saturday's divisional-round game against the Seahawks due to a stinger, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

McCaffrey suffered the injury on San Francisco's final drive of the first half, and he's remained out to start the third quarter. He was spotted having his left shoulder worked on, though he remained on the sideline with his helmet on. Brian Robinson has taken over as the lead back in McCaffrey's absence.

Sutton secured four of nine targets for 53 yards in the Broncos' 33-30 overtime divisional-round win over the Bills on Saturday.

Sutton was held off the stat sheet for three-plus quarters, but he came alive on Denver's go-ahead fourth-quarter drive with catches of 11, 25 and six yards during the possession. Sutton added an 11-yard grab on the first drive of overtime before also drawing a key 17-yard pass-interference penalty on what would turn out to be the Broncos' game-winning drive. However, Sutton will now have to build quick chemistry with veteran backup Jarrett Stidham, who lines up to draw the start in an AFC Championship Game matchup against either the Texans or Patriots on Sunday, Jan. 25 due to Bo Nix having suffered a fractured ankle Saturday that will prevent the second-year signal-caller from playing again in the postseason.

Mims secured all eight targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in the Broncos' 33-30 overtime divisional-round win over the Bills on Saturday. He also returned two kickoffs for 50 yards.

Mims led the Broncos in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon, while his impressive 26-yard over-the-shoulder touchdown grab with just under a minute remaining in regulation erased a 27-23 deficit. The third-year pro appeared to have injured his lower back on that play and remained down for a brief time afterward, but he was back on the field in overtime and drew a key 30-yard pass-interference penalty on Tre'Davious White that set up Wil Lutz's game-winning field goal. Mims figures to once again fill a key role in an AFC Championship Game matchup against either the Texans or Patriots on Sunday, Jan. 25, but he'll be catching passes from Jarrett Stidham after Bo Nix suffered a postseason-ending fractured ankle on the second-to-last play Saturday.
