Harold Landry
EDR/LB NE (14)
Wed 1/28/26 7:53 PM

Landry (knee) was estimated as a non-participant at practice on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Landry wasn't able to suit up for the AFC Championship due to a nagging knee injury, and now his status for the Super Bowl is up in the air. Whether he'll be available will largely depend on how many reps he can handle once New England starts holding practices to prepare.

Robert Spillane
LB NE (14)
Wed 1/28/26 7:49 PM

Spillane (ankle) was estimated as a non-participant at practice on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Spillane hurt his ankle during the first quarter of the AFC Championship and played just 13 defensive snaps, and now his availability for the Super Bowl is in doubt. His participation will be worth looking out for once New England starts holding practices.

QTerrell Jennings
RB NE (14)
Wed 1/28/26 7:44 PM

Jennings (concussion) was estimated as a full practice participant on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jennings has been clear of concussion protocol for a week now, but he was kept on injured reserve for the AFC Championship at Denver to save a roster spot. With Rhamondre Stevenson and rookie second-rounder TreVeyon Henderson both still healthy, there's no guarantee New England will activate Jennings for the Super Bowl.

Mack Hollins
WR NE (14)
Wed 1/28/26 7:36 PM

Hollins (abdomen) was estimated as a limited practice participant on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Hollins was able to play through his lingering abdomen injury in the AFC Championship at Denver, catching both of his two targets for 51 yards. However, the issue is apparently still bothering him as New England begins its preparations for the Super Bowl. His level of activity once the Patriots actually start holding practices will be worth keeping an eye on as Super Bowl LX approaches.

Trent Sherfield
WR FA
Wed 1/28/26 7:27 PM

New England signed Sherfield to its practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Less than a week after getting cut from the New England's practice squad, Sherfield is now back in the fold with the club ahead of the Super Bowl. With veteran Mack Hollins dealing with an abdomen issue, there's a small chance the Patriots could need to call for reinforcements at wide receiver for that contest, which may have influenced their decision to bring Sherfield back onto the practice squad.

QBo Nix
QB DEN (12)
Wed 1/28/26 5:49 PM

Nix said Wednesday that he'll begin training again in about 4-to-6 weeks after undergoing surgery on a "simple bone break" in his right ankle last Tuesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
That's not to say Nix won't require 12 weeks to recover fully, as reported by Adam Schefter of ESPN on Sunday, but the second-year quarterback will resume on-field work about when he normally would in the offseason after his season ended when he suffered the injury near the end of the Broncos' divisional-round overtime win against the Bills. Nix racked up 3,931 passing yards, 356 more yards on the ground and 30 total touchdowns (25 through the air, five rushing) in 17 regular-season games in 2025, so he'll remain a steady option for fantasy purposes in the upcoming campaign once he's healthy.

Sam Darnold
QB SEA (8)
Wed 1/28/26 5:37 PM

Darnold (oblique) was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Since injuring his left oblique in practice ahead of the Seahawks' divisional-round game against the 49ers, Darnold has operated with practice restrictions but suited up for both of the team's playoff contests, completing 37 of 53 passes (69.8 percent) for 470 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in the process. After Sunday's victory over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game, coach Mike Macdonald told Brady Henderson of ESPN.com on Monday that Darnold was dealing with some soreness, but the oblique issue remains "nothing major." Darnold will have a week and a half to get as healthy as possible ahead of Super Bowl LX versus the Patriots on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Drake Maye
QB NE (14)
Wed 1/28/26 5:26 PM

Maye was listed as limited on Wednesday's estimated injury report due to a right shoulder injury.
EDGE Analysis
During New England's three-game run to Super Bowl LX, Maye has taken an NFL-leading 15 sacks, which may have contributed to a below-average 55.8 completion percentage so far in the playoffs (down from a league-high 72 percent from the regular season). Still, he put up 533 passing yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions, rushed 24 times for 141 yards and one TD and fumbled six times (three lost) during that span. Maye appears to be tending to some residual wear and tear as a result, but his status will continue to be watched during the Patriots' two-week ramp-up period for a matchup with the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Gardner Minshew
QB ARI (8)
Wed 1/28/26 2:09 PM

Minshew (knee) will not require any procedures to address the season-ending knee injury he suffered in Week 16 and is already back to full strength, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Minshew missed the final two games of the regular season due to a left knee injury initially reported as a torn ACL and was then diagnosed as a non-displaced tibial plateau fracture, though Schefter now reports that the veteran quarterback merely suffered a bone bruise. After having played out the 2025 season on a one-year, $1.17 million contract with the Chiefs, Minshew will now be fully healthy in time to hit free agency this offseason. If he doesn't reunite with Kansas City, Minshew should have little difficulty securing a backup role elsewhere in the league.

Aaron Rodgers
QB FA
Tue 1/27/26 2:34 PM

New Pittsburgh head coach Mike McCarthy said Tuesday the team would "definitely" want Rodgers back if he decides to play in the 2026 season, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
After Mike Tomlin stepped down as the Steelers' head coach in mid-January, it was reported by Ian Rapoport of NFL Network that Rodgers was unlikely to re-up with the team after playing out 2025 on a one-year contract. A reunion with McCarthy might make the 42-year-old quarterback reconsider, however, as the two won Super Bowl XLV together with Green Bay back in 2011 -- coincidentally, a 31-25 victory over Pittsburgh. If he doesn't return to the Steelers, Rodgers will most likely retire.
