Michael Porter Jr. is Tagged as Probable for Friday

Brooklyn Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Porter is feeling a little sore after a knee-to-knee collision with Wendell Carter Jr. during Wednesday's game versus the Orlando Magic. It didn't seem to impact his performance as he finished with 34 points, five rebounds, […]

Kawhi Leonard Holds Questionable Tag for Friday

Miami Heat guard/forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Jaquez will make his return to the court after missing each of the last two games due to a right ankle sprain. The return of Jaquez should mean less playing time for Pelle Larsson and Simone Fontecchio. This […]

Darius Garland to Play on Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (hand) is officially cleared to suit up for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Garland was a late addition to the injury report due to a right-hand contusion. It doesn't appear to be serious enough to force Garland to miss any action.

Ladd McConkey has Tough Test in Wild-Card Round

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey is in desperate need of a bounce-back performance. McConkey has struggled to put up any consistent numbers during the second half of the season. The 24-year-old has been held to under 40 receiving yards in six of his last seven games. It's not going to get easier for […]

Justin Herbert Offers QB2 Value for Wild-Card Game

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert sat out of the regular-season finale versus the Denver Broncos.

The 27-year-old […]

The Jags clearly […]

Pat Freiermuth is Risky for Wild-Card Round

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth has seen an expanded role in the offense lately. The loss of Darnell Washington (forearm) has moved Freiermuth up the depth chart. Over the last four games, Freiermuth has hauled in 13 receptions for 179 yards, but he hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 12. The 27-year-old will head […]

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (ankle, knee) is considered questionable to return for Sunday's Week 18 matchup versus the Washington Commanders.

Given the Eagles are playing their backups, Calcaterra is unlikely to return in basically a meaningless game for Philly. […]

Matt Prater Ruled Out With Quad Injury

Buffalo Bills kicker Matt Prater (quadriceps) won't return for Sunday's Week 18 matchup versus the New York Jets. Prater missed the last two games due to a quad injury and aggravated the issue while attempting an extra point on Sunday. Punter Mitch Wishnowsky will take over on kickoffs for the rest of the game. The […]

Caleb Kilian Signs Minor-League Deal With Giants

The San Francisco Giants have signed right-hander Caleb Kilian to a minor-league deal with an invitation to spring training.

Paul DeJong Signs Minor-League Deal With Yankees

The New York Yankees have signed free-agent infielder Paul DeJong to a minor-league deal with an invitation to spring training.
