In the first round of the NFL playoffs, a few first-year players provided key contributions to their team. All five of the rookies below were part of Wild Card victories and will be playing again this weekend.

The Los Angeles Chargers have had a roller-coaster season this year, finishing with a record of 9-8 and missing the playoffs.

When the Georgia Bulldogs won the College Football Championship a few weeks ago, they were led by their defense. That defense was filled with players that will soon be drafted into the NFL in April. Devonte Wyatt is yet another Bulldog that will find a new home on the first two days of the NFL Draft in April.

With Wild Card Weekend in the books, it is time to look at the best performers at each position from last week. It should be a mix of usual suspects and random one-game wonders.

The Arizona Cardinals started off as well as any team in the NFL this season. A 7-0 start and some big wins over eventual playoff teams had the Cardinals thinking about a Super Bowl run.

When the Detroit Lions traded Matthew Stafford to the Los Angeles Rams, it was clear the franchise was rebuilding.

Welcome back to the futile exercise of ranking NFL teams. As always, these Power Rankings will be updated weekly, so be sure to watch out as teams move up and down.

Although the New England Patriots had a respectable 10-7 year, their season ended in anything but respectable fashion. Blown out by the Buffalo Bills and quite frankly dominated in every facet.

In the conversation to the top overall pick in April’s draft, many have regarded Evan Neal as the top offensive lineman in this year’s class. The Florida native surrendered just two sacks on over 1,000 snaps.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have been perpetually bad since the owner, Shad Khan bought the team in 2011. Many fans believed the abysmal 2020 record would be difficult to beat. However, the Urban Meyer-led Jaguars proved anything is possible.

The New York Giants were trashed by injury and landed dead last in the NFC East with a 4-13 record. Whether it’s a new head coach or searching for a quarterback, the Giants have much to accomplish in the offseason.

The Miami Dolphins were the definition of an up and down team this season. They opened up the season 1-0 before going on a seven-game losing streak.
