Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson (hamstring) has opened up training camp working on a side field. He also missed a bit of mandatory minicamp in June with a hamstring twinge.

Ronald Acuna Jr. Heads To The Bench Wednesday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. isn't in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Phillies. Acuna is in a bit of a slump at the plate lately and will get a normal day to rest, so fantasy managers need to pull him out of their lineups. His recent cold stretch has dropped his […]

After taking his physical on Tuesday at training camp, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (shoulder) wasn't placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list.
