Wyatt Hubert, DE – Cincinnati Bengals
Hubert, a seventh-round draft pick by Cincinnati in this year's draft, was injured during the offseason and is on reserve. The Bengals earned a 19-16 walk-off victory at No. 1 seed Tennessee on Saturday. The Bengals will travel to Kansas City for the AFC Championship, a 2:05 p.m., game that will air on CBS.
 
Briley Moore, TE – Tennessee Titans
A rookie free agent signee by the Titans this past offseason, Moore was hurt during training camp and placed on injured reserve. The Titans suffered a 19-16 walk-off home loss to Cincinnati to see their season come to an end.
 
Byron Pringle, WR – Kansas City Chiefs
Pringle registered five catches for 29 yards – including a 2-yard touchdown reception – in addition to one kickoff return for 26 yards to help Kansas City pick up a 42-36 home overtime victory over Buffalo. Pringle now has three touchdown catches in the postseason, the second most in the NFL this year and the first three of his postseason career. The Chiefs will now host Cincinnati in the AFC Championship, marking the first time in NFL history a franchise will host a conference championship game in four-straight seasons. The contest kicks at 2:05 p.m., and will air on CBS.
 
Jordan Willis, DE – San Francisco 49ers
Willis made perhaps the play of the season for the 49ers as he blocked a punt that resulted in a game-tying touchdown late in the fourth quarter before San Francisco hit a game-winning field goal as time expired in its 13-10 win at No. 1 seed Green Bay on Saturday night. Willis, who also tallied two tackles, was in for 18 defensive snaps and eight special teams plays. The 49ers advanced to the NFC Championship for the second time in three seasons as they will travel to face the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday at 5:30 p.m., on FOX.
