Yordan Alvarez Still Out Wednesday

Houston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (hand) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers.

Raiders Waive Alex Leatherwood

The Las Vegas Raiders waived former first-round offensive lineman Alex Leatherwood on Tuesday, according to a source.

The 23-year-old was the 17th overall selection last year out of […]

Buccaneers Release Logan Ryan

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released safety Logan Ryan on Tuesday despite receiving consistent praise from the coaching staff during training camp.

Tre'Davious White To Miss First Four Games

Buffalo Bills star cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) will start the year on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning he'll miss at least the first four games of the regular season.

Arcega-Whiteside and wide receiver Freddie Swain, quarterback Jacob Eason, running back Darwin Thompson, cornerback Justin Coleman and safety Marquise Blair on Tuesday.

Baltimore Ravens rookie running back Tyler Badie was among the team's many roster cuts on Tuesday. Badie was used heavily in the preseason and training camp with both J.K.

Saints Release Ian Book

The New Orleans Saints released quarterback Ian Book on Tuesday, according to a source. Book will be a practice-squad target if he clears waivers. In the team's preseason finale last Friday against the Los Angeles Chargers, the 24-year-old went 11-for-15 for 81 yards and a touchdown, also adding a 50-yard run. The Saints will roll […]

Vikings Cut Sean Mannion

The Minnesota Vikings cut quarterback Sean Mannion on Tuesday, according to a source. Mannion could wind up returning to join the practice squad.

Mannion definitely outperformed Mond in the preseason, […]

Lil'Jordan Humphrey Doesn't Survive Roster Cuts

The New England Patriots released wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey on Tuesday, according to a source. However, he could re-sign to the team's practice squad.

Patriots Waive Rookie Kevin Harris

The New England Patriots waived rookie sixth-round running back Kevin Harris on Tuesday, according to a source. If he clears waivers, Harris will almost certainly be moved to the team's practice squad. The 21-year-old entered the draft earlier this year out of the University of South Carolina. The Patriots will move forward with Damien Harris, […]

Rams Cut Jacob Harris Tuesday

The Los Angeles Rams cut tight end Jacob Harris on Tuesday, according to a league source.

49ers Release Nate Sudfeld

The San Francisco 49ers decided to release veteran quarterback Nate Sudfeld and retain rookie Brock Purdy on the team's 53-man roster.

49ers Release Tashaun Gipson

The San Francisco 49ers released veteran safety Tashaun Gipson on Tuesday, according to a source. Gipson signed a one-year deal with the Niners just a week ago, but he won't make it onto the initial 53-man roster.

In his […]

Darius Slayton Makes Initial 53-Man Roster

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton will be on the team's initial 53-man roster. Slayton had been on the roster bubble for most of the summer, and he's also been the subject of recent trade talk, but he'll remain with the team for the time being. However, there's still no guarantee that he'll be […]

Cade Cavalli Going On Injured List

The Washington Nationals are placing rookie right-hander Cade Cavalli (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday due to right shoulder inflammation.

Houston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (hand) remains out of the starting lineup against the Texas Rangers on Tuesday.

In Alvarez's place on Tuesday, J.J. Matijevic is serving as […]

Ozzie Albies To Start Rehab Assignment Thursday

Atlanta Braves skipper Brian Snitker said that second baseman Ozzie Albies (foot) will start a minor league rehab assignment on Thursday with Triple-A Gwinnett.

Cristian Javier To Start Wednesday Against Rangers

Houston Astros right-hander Cristian Javier will get the start against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. Javier is rejoining the starting rotation with Justin Verlander (calf) going on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday.

Teoscar Hernandez Back In The Lineup Tuesday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (foot) is back in right field and is hitting sixth on Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs and right-hander Marcus Stroman. Hernandez has been bothered by a sore left foot of late, but he'll be back in there after sitting out the series opener on Monday. The 29-year-old Dominican should […]

Phillies Sign Chris Devenski

The Philadelphia Phillies signed free-agent right-handed reliever Chris Devenski to a minor league deal on Tuesday. Devenski will report to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Chi Chi Gonzalez Signs With Yankees

The New York Yankees signed free-agent right-hander Chi Chi Gonzalez to a minor league deal on Tuesday. It would be an understatement to say that Gonzalez has bounced around in 2022.

The Atlanta Braves claimed right-handed reliever Jesse Chavez off waivers on Tuesday from the Los Angeles Angels.
