Tight Ends Tangle

Falcons at Eagles
Three former Stanford tight ends take the field when Atlanta visits Philadelphia to kick off the divisional round. Last week, Austin Hooper and Levine Toilolo helped the Falcons upset the Los Angeles Rams, 26-13. They will have their hands full with Philadelphia's defense, which is giving up the fourth-fewest yards per game (306.5) and fewest rushing yards per game (79.2).
 
Zach Ertz enjoyed a breakout season for the Eagles, catching 74 passes for 824 yards and eight touchdowns while earning his first Pro Bowl nod. Ertz will likely match up with Atlanta's speedy duo of Deion Jones and Keanu Neal, who limited Rams tight ends to two catches for 15 yards last week.
 
Titans at Patriots
Three former Cardinal will suit up for New England when Tennessee visits Gillette Stadium on Saturday. Tackle Cameron Fleming has become a key part of the Patriots' offense with Marcus Cannon done for the season. Fleming has missed just 15 snaps in his past five games, allowing six just six pressures during that span.
 
Jordan Richards has played the most snaps of his three-year career this season, making five starts at strong safety while remaining a key special teamer.
 
Acquired shortly before the season for added depth in the defensive backfield, Johnson Bademosi has been one of the best special teamers in football for several seasons. Earlier in the year, Bademosi proved himself to be a more than capable backup when big-money signing Stephon Gilmore missed playing time.
 
Jaguars at Steelers
David DeCastro and Pittsburgh look to avenge their 30-9 home loss against Jacksonville during Week 5 of the regular season. According to Pro Football Focus, Pittsburgh owns the second-highest offensive rating in the league (+79.5) behind only New England. DeCastro, who has been named All-Pro in each of the past three seasons, will have his work cut out against Jacksonville's fierce defensive front, which includes Calais Campbell, Yannick Ngakoue, Marcell Dareus and Malik Jackson.
