After earning the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff bracket and enjoying a bye week, the Ravens will battle the Texans in the divisional round.

Baltimore's key starters, including MVP candidate Lamar Jackson, will return to the field for the first time since a Dec. 31 win over Miami. The Ravens already had the top seed locked up before a Week 18 matchup with the Steelers, so several players stayed on the sideline for the regular-season finale.

Houston, meanwhile, is coming off an impressive 45-14 blowout victory over Cleveland in the wild-card round. Rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud was stellar in that contest, throwing for 274 yards and three touchdowns with only five incompletions.

The Ravens defeated the Texans in Week 1, but a lot has changed over the past few months. Which team will secure a spot in the AFC Championship game?
