Jahan Dotson - Opens scoring in playoff winDotson reached the end zone for the first time as an Eagle in Sunday's wild-card win over the Packers, finishing with one catch for an 11-yard score.

ImpactThe Eagles got off to a quick start in their 22-10 win, forcing a fumble on the opening kickoff and scoring just three plays later on 2nd-and-9 from the 11. Jalen Hurts had nearly seven seconds in the pocket and found Dotson wide open at the back of the end zone for the wideout's first score since Week 11 of the 2023 season. The rest of the game was more typical for Dotson's time in Philadelphia, as he received just one more target and no more interceptions.

Oren Burks - Likely starting in divisional roundBurks is expected to start in place of the injured Nakobe Dean (knee) in Sunday's divisional round playoff game, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

ImpactWith Dean sustaining a torn patellar tendon in the second quarter of Sunday's win over the Packers, Burks stepped in and saw more defensive work in the second half, finishing the contest with five total tackles and one forced fumble. The Vanderbilt product is likely to remain in the Eagles' first-team defensive lineup with Dean sidelined for the remainder of the season. Burks is expected to start alongside Zack Baun as part of Philadelphia's top inside linebacker duo in the divisional round matchup against the winner Monday night's wild-card game between the Vikings and the Rams.

Jayden Reed - Says he won't need surgeryReed said Monday that he won't need surgery on his dislocated shoulder, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

ImpactHe missed the end of Sunday's playoff loss to the Eagles but should be ready for OTAs in the spring. It was a disappointing end to a disappointing season in which 72.3 percent of Reed's receiving yards came in the first nine games. He appeared well on his way to a 1,000-yard campaign for much of the season, before averaging 29.6 receiving yards and 3.6 targets after a Week 10 bye, ultimately finishing with a 55-857-6 receiving line and 20-163-1 on the ground. Reed offers an unusual combination of rushing contributions and big receiving plays from the slot, but it's hard to say if/when he'll progress beyond boom/bust-WR3 status for fantasy.
