Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) is doubtful to play Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers.

MVS's status means Randall Cobb may have to play a bigger role than anticipated in his return. Aaron Jones also factors in.

Browns QB Baker Mayfield underwent successful surgery on his torn labrum and will be out 4-6 months.

That timeline lines up with training camps starting, which could/could not be an issue for Mayfield if he takes the full expected amount of time to recover. Case Keenum should be kept as the Browns' backup QB.

Valdes-Scantling has been in-and-out of the lineup and the extra time has not helped his back issues. His health is important because it is unlikely that Randall Cobb plays a large chunk of this weekend's divisional game after having core muscle surgery.

Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill (heel) was a full participant Wednesday.

Hill was not himself for parts of K.C.'s Super Wild Card win, so it is good to see him already a full participant.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid told reporters Wednesday that RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) "moved around well" Wednesday, but the real test for him is Thursday's practice.

A CEH return matters with Darrel Williams sitting out Wednesday. A CEH-Jerick McKinnon backfield should be expected this weekend.

CEH may have practiced Wednesday, which will be confirmed once K.C. puts out their first injury report for the week. His return is vital with Williams being a healthy non-scratch during their Super Wild Card win.

Packers HC Matt LaFleur told reporters Wednesday that he "would anticipate him (Randall Cobb) playing in this game.”

We all know Cobb's chemistry with Aaron Rodgers, but there is concern with Cobb coming off core muscle surgery getting a lot of action immediately.

Cardinals RB James Conner (heel) and WR Rondale Moore (hamstring) are active for Super Wild Card Monday against the Los Angeles Rams.

Conner active means Chase Edmonds should be no worse than in a 50/50 split, but loses his lead dog role. Moore has been used sporadically and is a true boom/bust play against the Rams.
