The NFL Playoffs start today. Wild-Card Weekend is slated to kickoff at 4:30 PM EST with the New Orleans Saints visiting the Seattle Seahawks. What injuries could cause issues this weekend? The Saints have a long-list of injuries, including just losing RB Chris Ivory for the playoffs. They also have to go on the road to a hostile crowd, across country, to possible bad weather. Tough going, but the Seahawks are such a bad playoff team, it's hard to pick them.
New Orleans Saints Injuries:
OUT LB Danny Clark (hamstring), TE Jimmy Graham (ankle), DT Tony Hargrove (knee), S Malcolm Jenkins (knee)
Seattle Seahawks Injuries:
No Injuries to report. Matt Hasselback should be back at QB, although his knee is still troublesome.
