George Holani: Could return from IR
Head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Monday that Holani (hamstring) could be activated from injured reserve ahead of this Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports. Zach Charbonnet tore his ACL during the Seahawks' 41-6 win over the 49ers during Saturday's divisional-round game. With Holani on IR, that leaves Kenneth Walker as the lone healthy running back on Seattle's active roster, and Velus Jones and Cam Akers are options to be elevated from the practice squad. Holani mostly contributed on special teams prior to landing on IR in late November due to a hamstring injury, and in the 11 regular-season games before his injury, he turned 22 carries into 73 yards and one touchdown while adding two catches (on as many targets) for 15 yards. If activated from IR, Holani would in be in line to slot in as the Seahawks' RB2 behind Walker.Read More -

Velus Jones: Back to practice squad
Jones reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Jones played 16 snaps (11 on offense, five on special teams) during the Seahawks' 41-6 win over the 49ers during Saturday's NFC divisional game. He logged six carries for 10 yards, all of which came late in the fourth quarter in garbage time. Jones could have an elevated role in the Seahawks' offense for the NFC Championship Game against the Rams this Sunday after Zach Charbonnet tore his ACL against San Francisco, though George Holani (hamstring) could be activated from injured reserve this week to provide depth in the backfield.Read More -

Sam Darnold: To be ‘day-to-day’ this week
Coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Darnold (oblique) will be "day-to-day" this week, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports. Darnold suffered a left oblique injury last Thursday that left him questionable for this past Saturday's divisional-round game versus the 49ers, but he was able to suit up, start and play 47 of 53 offensive snaps en route to completing 12 of 17 passes for 124 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in a 41-6 win. The veteran QB wore padding over his left oblique to protect the issue, and Macdonald added Monday that the Seahawks will balance "making sure we get enough reps at the proper tempo, with the proper looks," and get him "the reps that he needs." That would seem to suggest Darnold will operate with practice restrictions this week, with Wednesday's injury report to reveal how much activity he logs in the first session ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams.Read More

Gui Santos: Chance to return Tuesday
Head coach Steve Kerr said Monday that he's hopeful Santos (ankle) will return against the Raptors on Tuesday, Joseph Dycus of The Mercury News reports. Santos sustained a left ankle sprain in Thursday's loss to the Knicks and missed Monday's win over Miami. However, he could return Tuesday and would be in line for increased playing time if Jimmy Butler (knee) is forced to miss time. Until the Warriors release their official injury report, Santos should be considered questionable to face Toronto.Read More -

Jimmy Butler: Headed for MRI
Butler is scheduled for an MRI after leaving Monday's game against the Heat with a right knee injury, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports. Butler exited Monday's matchup with what appeared to be a significant knee injury, but the team doesn't expect to know the severity of the issue until Tuesday. It would be fair to consider the star forward doubtful for the second half of Golden State's back-to-back against Toronto until further notice.Read More -

Donovan Mitchell: Struggles to find shot Monday
Mitchell contributed 19 points (5-18 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 8-11 FT), four rebounds, three assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 136-104 loss to Oklahoma City. The All-Star guard saw his streak of games with multiple three-pointers end at 14, although he did his best to make up for his poor shooting at the free-throw line. Mitchell has scored 20-plus points in six of eight appearances in January, averaging 26.1 points, 6.3 assists, 5.6 boards, 3.5 threes and 1.5 steals per game so far this month.Read More

Trent Thornton: Inks deal with Cubs
The Cubs signed Thornton (Achilles) to a contract Monday, Tread Athletics reports. It's not clear whether it's a major- or minor-league contract, but Thornton has landed a deal after throwing for teams in a "Pro Day" at Tread Athletics training facility. Thornton had surgery in August to repair a torn left Achilles tendon but has a chance to be ready in time for Opening Day. The right-handed reliever posted a 4.68 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 32:14 K:BB over 42.1 innings for the Mariners in 2025 before getting hurt.Read More -

Seth Brown: Latches on with Yankees
The Yankees signed Brown to a minor-league contract Monday, Aram Leighton of JustBaseball.com reports. Brown's production with the Athletics tumbled in the wrong direction since he had back-to-back 20-plus homer seasons in 2021 and 2022, as the 33-year-old finished 2025 with just a .185/.303/.262 batting line over 38 tilts. He does have some power and can play all three outfield spots in addition to first base, giving the Yankees some quality depth at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.Read More
