The Los Angeles Chargers have signed running back Ezekiel Elliott on Monday. The former first-round pick will get a chance to compete for a Super Bowl this season. The Chargers are lacking depth at the running back spot, so the addition of Elliott does make sense. The three-time Pro Bowl back might play a minimal role during Saturday's Wild-Card game against the Houston Texans. This season, Elliott rushed for 226 yards on 74 carries with three touchdowns in 15 games with the Dallas Cowboys. The 29-year-old brings knowledge and leadership, but he hasn't rushed for over 1,000 yards since 2021. This is a depth move that gives the 29-year-old a chance to win a Super Bowl.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee scored his second touchdown of the season and caught a season-high five passes for 46 yards in the team's 30-25 loss to the Seahawks. Higbee returned from a knee injury in Week 16 and scored a critical touchdown against the Jets. He had two catches in Week 17 against Arizona, but the veteran played his most involved role of the year in Week 18 despite the Rams resting most of their regular starters. Higbee had seven targets, which was just one short of Tutu Atwell's team-high. He tied with Atwell for the team lead with five catches and added his second score of the year. Higbee looked healthy and ready to contribute for the Rams as they start the playoffs with a home game next week.
