Jake Matthews Active For Falcons

Atlanta Falcons left tackle Jake Matthews is active on Thursday night against the Carolina Panthers after a busy day. Matthews flew back to Atlanta Thursday morning for the birth of his first child but had time to fly back to Carolina in time to be active for the Week 10 contest. The 30-year-old has been […]

Chuba Hubbard Officially Active On Thursday Night

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard (ankle) is officially active for Thursday Night Football against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. Hubbard will return to the field after missing the last two games with an ankle injury suffered in Week 7. The 23-year-old got the start back in Week 7 and had nine carries for […]

Yankees Considering Masataka Yoshida

The New York Yankees are considering Japanese on-base machine Masataka Yoshida, an outfielder who had a .447 on-base percentage in Nippon Professional Baseball in 2022 with the Orix Buffaloes. The Yankees need more contact-oriented, on-base hitters like Yoshida, so he could be the perfect fit in the Bronx to strengthen an already potent lineup. In […]

Robert Suarez Returns To Padres On Five-Year Deal

The San Diego Padres and relief pitcher Robert Suarez agreed on a five-year deal worth $46 million on Thursday, according to sources. The contract includes an opt-out clause after three years. Suarez opted out of his original 2023 deal after a breakout rookie season in 2022 in which he had a 2.27 ERA (3.22 FIP), […]

Nick Martinez Opts Out Of His Deal

San Diego Padres right-hander Nick Martinez opted out of his $6.5 million player option for the 2023 season and is now a free agent. The two sides had been discussing a potential restructure in recent days, but Martinez has decided to test the open market after a strong season as a swing man for the […]

Chris Bassitt Receives Qualifying Offer From Mets

The New York Mets extended the $19.65 million qualifying offer to free-agent starting pitcher Chris Bassitt on Thursday, as expected. The Mets also gave the qualifying offer to right-hander Jacob deGrom and outfielder Brandon Nimmo but didn't give one to starting pitcher Taijuan Walker. It made sense to give Bassitt the $19 million qualifying offer […]

Mets Don't Extend Qualifying Offer To Taijuan Walker

The New York Mets decided not to extend the $19.65 million qualifying offer to free-agent starting pitcher Taijuan Walker. Meanwhile, right-handers Jacob deGrom and Chris Bassitt and outfielder Brandon Nimmo all received the offer. Like deGrom and Bassitt, Walker opted out of his $6 million player option for the 2023 season and can now sign […]

Dodgers Decline Justin Turner's 2023 Option

The Los Angeles Dodgers declined their $16 million team option for the 2023 season on third baseman Justin Turner on Thursday, making him a free agent. The Dodgers are interested in re-signing him at a lower price, so there's a chance Turner won't leave the team he's spent the last nine years with. In 2022, […]

Pirates Acquire Ji-Man Choi From The Rays

The Pittsburgh Pirates acquired first baseman Ji-Man Choi from the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday in exchange for minor-league pitcher Jack Hartman. The Rays are shipping Choi to Pittsburgh in his final year of arbitration eligibility.

Reds Acquire Nick Solak From Rangers

The Cincinnati Reds acquired infielder/outfielder Nick Solak from the Texas Rangers on Thursday in exchange for cash considerations. Solak suffered a fractured right foot in September and played in just 35 games for the Rangers in 2022. In those 35 contests, he hit just .207/.309/.329 with three home runs, four RBI, 14 runs scored, three […]

Matthew Stafford Misses Another Practice

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (concussion) missed his second straight practice this week on Thursday. It remains to be seen if Stafford will be able to pass through the league's concussion protocol in time to play in Week 10 against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals. If he's not ready, backup John Wolford would get the […]

Keenan Allen, Dustin Hopkins Miss Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) and kicker Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday. The beat goes on for Allen, who has been the most frustrating early round fantasy commodity in 2022. He's played in just two games and has caught six passes for 77 yards and no touchdowns, and it […]

Ezekiel Elliott, Noah Brown Limited Thursday

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) and wide receiver Noah Brown (foot) were both listed as limited practice participants for the second straight day on Thursday. The Cowboys fully expect Elliott to return in Week 10 against the Green Bay Packers after he sat out in Week 8. Dallas had their bye in Week […]

Ryan Tannehill Back To A Full Practice

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, meaning he'll likely return to the starting gig under center in Week 10 against the Denver Broncos. Tannehill has missed the last two games, but he's certainly trending in the right direction this week to put an end to that two-game absence. […]

Chuba Hubbard Plans To Play On Thursday Night

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard (ankle) plans to play on Thursday night against the Atlanta Falcons, barring a surprise, according to a source. Hubbard was listed as questionable for Week 10 despite practicing in full on Tuesday and Wednesday. You'll want to check back when inactives come out before Thursday's game, but in all […]

Matt Ryan Practices In Full Thursday

Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and will be available to interim head coach Jeff Saturday on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, if so desired. Ryan is recovering from a Grade 2 right shoulder sprain, but the Colts still plan on using […]

Deon Jackson Misses Another Practice

Indianapolis Colts running back Deon Jackson (knee) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. Jackson is trending towards missing the Week 10 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. With Jonathan Taylor (ankle) on track to return this Sunday, Jackson won't have any relevance for fantasy lineups, even if he's active. If […]

Jonathan Taylor Practicing In Full

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Thursday, which is good news for his availability in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Taylor missed the Week 9 loss to the New England Patriots and has now missed three total games due to the injury. It looks like […]

Jake Matthews Leaves Team For Personal Reasons

Atlanta Falcons left tackle Jake Matthews has headed back to Atlanta on Thursday for his wife's delivery of his first child. However, the hope is to have Matthews back in time for the Thursday night game against the Carolina Panthers. Matthews has been a key cog for Atlanta's four-headed rushing attack this year as well […]

Matt Ryan Back At Practice Thursday

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan (shoulder) is back at practice on Thursday. Ryan is dealing with a Grade 2 right shoulder sprain and was demoted from the starting role in favor of Sam Ehlinger a few weeks back. The Colts continue to say that Ehlinger will be their starter going forward, even in the wake […]

Jahan Dotson Limited In Thursday's Practice

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) was officially listed as limited in Thursday's practice. It's a significant development for the 22-year-old, as it's his first practice since he aggravated his hamstring on Oct. 20. He hasn't played since Week 4, but he'll have a shot to return on Monday night against the undefeated […]

Mecole Hardman Won't Practice Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman (abdomen) will not practice on Thursday due to abdominal soreness. Hardman also missed practice on Wednesday, so his availability is highly in question for the Week 10 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 24-year-old has scored a touchdown in three straight games, so it would be a frustrating […]

Josh Reynolds Still Absent From Practice

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (back) missed another day of practice on Thursday. Reynolds missed the Week 9 win over the Green Bay Packers, and he looks set for another absence in Week 10 against the Chicago Bears unless he can return to practice on Friday. In his absence last Sunday, Kalif Raymond and […]

Kyler Murray Back At Practice

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) was seen at practice on Thursday in the portion open to the media. Murray was held out of practice on Wednesday, but his return on Thursday confirms he's not dealing with a serious injury leading up to the Week 10 matchup against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. His hamstring […]

Jonathan Taylor Practicing Again Thursday

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is practicing for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Taylor was held out for the third time this year due to his ankle injury in Week 9 but appears to be on track to return for the Week 10 tilt against the Las Vegas Raiders this […]

Raiders Put Hunter Renfrow On Injured Reserve

The Las Vegas Raiders are placing wide receiver Hunter Renfrow (oblique) on Injured Reserve on Thursday due to his oblique injury, according to a source. Both Renfrow and tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) have been put on IR on the same day, which opens up more opportunities for receiver Mack Hollins and Foster Moreau moving […]

Josh Allen Not Practicing Again Thursday

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday in the portion open to the media. It will be Allen's second straight missed practice after he suffered a UCL injury in the Week 9 loss to the New York Jets, putting his status firmly in doubt for this Sunday's game against the […]

Darren Waller Placed On Injured Reserve

The Las Vegas Raiders placed tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Thursday, according to a source. Waller aggravated his hamstring injury and the Raiders think this will give him four weeks to get healthy in order to finish the season strong. He won't be eligible to play in the next four games, […]

Giants Not Picking Up Evan Longoria's Option

As expected, the San Francisco Giants aren't picking up third baseman Evan Longoria's $13 million option for the 2023 season, making him a free agent. Instead, he'll receive a $5 million buyout. Dialogue remains open with the team, so a reunion is possible. Longoria is interested in seeing what free agency has to offer, though. […]

Mariners Showing Interest In Brandon Nimmo

The Seattle Mariners have expressed formal interest in free-agent outfielder Brandon Nimmo, according to sources. The Mariners are looking for a left-handed bat and improved on-base percentage, and Nimmo would bring both of those things to Seattle. Nimmo is a native of Wyoming and has posted a strong .385 on-base percentage in his seven MLB […]
