The NFL postseason field is officially down to two teams, as Super Bowl LX is now set following the conclusion of the AFC and NFC Championship Games. While attention turns toward the league’s biggest stage, several key developments emerged across the league involving draft positioning, injury updates for the remaining contenders, and continued coaching movement.

Two additional draft slots were finalized following Sunday’s championship losses. The Los Angeles Rams locked in the 29th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Los Angeles will hold two selections in the first round, as the franchise previously acquired the 13th overall pick from the Atlanta Falcons. The Denver Broncos secured the 30th overall pick after falling in the AFC Championship Game.

Latest Draft Picks Locked In

Injury reports from Championship Weekend also drew attention. For the New England Patriots, linebacker Robert Spillane did not return to Sunday’s AFC title game after sustaining an ankle injury in the first quarter. In the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks were without fullback Brady Russell for the remainder of their championship matchup after he was ruled out with a hand injury.
