Earlier this week, the Packers announced that Alexander had hurt his ankle in a “freak injury.” With the wild-card game closing in, he was reported as questionable to participate in the fixture. However, mere hours before the game, the Packers released a list of active players.

Fans rejoiced in finding Alexander’s amongst the expected names. Along with him, the 24-year-old WR Watson will also make a return. The youngster has seen no action after being injured against the Kansas City Chiefs in the Week 13 game.

Both Dak Prescott and Jordan Love have been sensational this season. But the burden of expectations will be heavier on the home team. Despite being a generational talent, Prescott has been unable to deliver the Super Bowl to the Cowboys.

On the other hand, in the absence of Aaron Rodgers, Love has stepped up and wrested the mantle. In his first-ever year as the No. 1 QB, the 25-year-old has surpassed all expectations. So, this game could be a legacy-defining one for both the QBs.
