It appears that the starting […]

Michael Jordan Signing with Buccaneers

According to Adam Schefter, free-agent offensive guard Michael Jordan is signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Travis Hunter Playing Defense on Friday

Justin Fields Back at Practice on Friday

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields (toe) was seen back on the practice field on Friday. This seems surprising considering Fields was carted off the field during Thursday's practice.

T.J. Hockenson Getting Targeted Heavily

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson appears to be becoming a favorite target of quarterback J.J. McCarthy. During their first practice, McCarthy reportedly looked efficient and effective while targeting Hockenson quite frequently.

Miles Sanders Looking Good in Practice

Dallas Cowboys running back Miles Sanders reportedly looked good while playing with the first-team during Thursday's practice. According to Calvin Watkins, Sanders is running smoother than Javonte Williams in practice. It's early in camp, but it seems like Sanders is the favorite to be the lead back in Dallas. The 28-year-old hasn't done much on […]

Jaylen Warren Getting First-Team Reps

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was going through first-team reps during the beginning of Thursday's practice. It would make sense that Warren would get the first chance at the starting job in Pittsburgh. He has earned that opportunity after putting in solid work as the backup over the last few seasons. Most notably, Warren […]

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Receiving Trade Interest

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. could be on the move ahead of this year's trade deadline.

The obvious targets are Merrill Kelly, […]

Yimi Garcia Shut Down from Throwing

Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Yimi Garcia (elbow) has been shut down from throwing for the next two weeks, according to Jays' manager John Schneider.

Alek Manoah Throwing Simulated Game on Saturday

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah (elbow) is scheduled to pitch a simulated game with Single-A Dunedin on Saturday. The organization wants to wait until Saturday when the team is back at home so it's easier to control Manoah's pitch count. The right-hander continues to work his way back from Tommy John surgery from […]

Andres Gimenez Begins Running

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Andres Gimenez (ankle) began a running progression on Thursday. This is a positive step forward for Gimenez who has been sidelined since early July due a sprained left ankle. There doesn't appear to be a timetable for his return right now. Jays' manager John Schneider said the first day of […]

Jorge Soler Resting on Thursday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler (back) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Seattle Mariners.

Andrew Thomas Placed on PUP List

New York Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas (foot) has been placed on the physically unable to perform list.

Thomas has missed a total of 18 games over the last […]

Jake Moody, Greg Joseph in Kicking Competition

San Francisco 49ers kickers Jake Moody and Greg Joseph appear to be in a legitimate competition for the starting gig this fall.

AJ Dillon Gets First Reps Over Will Shipley

Philadelphia Eagles running back AJ Dillon was seen taking first team reps during the first day of training camp on Wednesday. It's only the beginning of camp, but it is interesting to see Dillon getting first team snaps over Will Shipley. Dillon was brought in on a one-year deal this offseason to replace Kenneth Gainwell […]

Ja'Lynn Polk Absent on Wednesday

New England Patriots wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk (shoulder) did not participate during Wednesday's opening training camp due to a shoulder injury. This is an interesting development, considering Polk wasn't placed on the physically unable to perform list. It's worth noting that Polk did undergo offseason shoulder surgery, though. It seems like the Pats are just […]

Tucker Kraft Gets Praise from Coaching Staff

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft is a player to keep an eye on as the summer rolls on. Recently, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur gave high praise to the third-year tight end. LaFleur said Kraft is an ascending player and that he has been putting the work in all summer long. Kraft is […]

Lawrence Butler Heads to the Bench

Athletics outfielder Lawrence Butler is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers.

Butler is slashing .195/244/.390 […]

Joc Pederson Beginning Rehab Assignment This Weekend

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) is scheduled to begin a minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, according to O's interim manager Tony Mansolino.

Ha-Seong Kim Remains Sidelined on Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Ha-Seong Kim (back) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox.
