The San Francisco 49ers aren’t playing for anything this month, but there is still reason to keep an eye on the playoffs.

Defensive tackle DeForest Buckner stands a good shot of getting the call. Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox suffered a foot injury in the Eagles divisional round loss to the New Orleans Saints.
