The Facts: A.J. Dillon‘s outlook for playing in the NFC Championship Game is looking better on Wednesday. Reporters at Wednesday’s practice said that Dillon was taking part in the portion of the session open to the media and he was officially listed as a limited participant. Williams (ankle) was also limited.

Diehards Line: There doesn't seem to be much concern about Williams' issue. Dillon left last Saturday’s win over the Rams with a quad injury and HC Matt LaFleur said early this week that he was hopeful about Dillon’s chances of being in the lineup. That feeling is likely even stronger now. Also limited were PK Mason Crosby (shoulder), LB Krys Barnes (thumb), DL Kingsley Keke (concussion), WR Allen Lazard (wrist, back), TE Marcedes Lewis (knee), LB Za'Darius Smith (thumb), WR Equanimeous St. Brown (knee, ankle) and T Rick Wagner (knee). S Will Redmond (knee) worked fully.
