Here Are The Teams That Clinched NFL Playoff Spots During Week 16

As the regular season nears its end, several NFL teams clinched playoff spots in Week 16 while others were eliminated from contention.

Three more teams clinched spots after Sunday's early slate of games, with every one of them being from the NFC. The Buccaneers clinched a spot after they won the NFC South with a win over the Panthers. It's the first time Tampa Bay won a division title since 2007.

The Rams clinched a playoff spot and moved into first place in the NFC West after their 30–23 win against the Vikings. The Cardinals also clinched a spot despite not playing a single snap on Sunday.
