The regular season is over, and the playoffs are on the horizon. 12 teams will compete in the wild card round to join the Kansas City Chiefs and Detroit Lions in the divisional round.

Hence, as we count down to wild card weekend, let's look at five players in danger of missing out on the action.

Five NFL players in danger of missing Wild Card round of playoffs

1. Zay Flowers

Zay Flowers suffered a leg injury in the Baltimore Ravens' final game of the regular season. The Pro Bowler got hurt as he attempted to extend a play in the second quarter.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh stated,

"It is not a season-ending injury, so it is just going be day-to-day, and the team will see where that takes them."

Hence, Ravens fans anxiously await to see whether Flowers will be available for the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

2. Jalen Hurts

Jalen Hurts hasn't played a snap since he suffered a head injury against the Washington Commanders. Hurts remains in the concussion protocol and is in a race against time to feature against the Green Bay Packers.

Hence, Hurts needs to feature in some capacity in this week's training sessions to have a realistic chance at playing in the wild-card round.

3. Jordan Love

Green Bay Packers star quarterback Jordan Love injured his elbow against the Chicago Bears. Love sustained the injury in the second quarter of the game as the Packers lost their last game of the regular season.

Matt Schneidman reported that the QB lost feeling in his throwing hand after falling on his arm. However, Bleacher Report stated that Love is on course to start against the Philadelphia Eagles in the wild-card round.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said after the Bears matchup that Love was taken out of the game as a precaution and he's on track to feature in the team's opening game of the postseason.

4. Jake Hansen

According to CBS Sports, Houston Texans linebacker Jake Hansen suffered an ankle injury in Week 18 against the Tennessee Titans. Hansen struggled during the game and was ruled questionable at the start of the fourth quarter. He's in a race against time to play in his side's wild-card game against the Los Angeles Chargers.

5. Frankie Luvu

According to CBS Sports, Washington Commanders linebacker Frankie Luvu suffered a shoulder injury in Week 18 in his side's win over the Dallas Cowboys.

Luvu must prove his availability to feature ahead of his side's wild-card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
