Kenny Golladay Has Been Invisible

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay played 21 offensive snaps in Sunday's preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals and didn't receive a single target. The Giants would lose $4.3 million in salary cap space if they were to cut Golladay, so they have no choice but to stick with him and hope he rediscovers […]

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 2-for-4 with his 47th home run of the season (a solo shot) and a strikeout on Monday in the team's 4-2 win over the New York Mets. It was Judge's first home run in the last nine games, so the Yankees and his fantasy managers are hoping that […]

Isaiah Wynn On The Trade Block?

The New England Patriots have talked to other teams about offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn, the team's first-round pick from 2018. Wynn is on a $10.4 million fifth-year option and he's still seen as a tackle/guard tweener. The Patriots are really tight to the salary cap, and SI.com's Albert Breer's sense is they'd like to use […]

Cody Ford Traded To The Cardinals

The Buffalo Bills traded offensive guard Cody Ford to the Arizona Cardinals on Monday in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick in 2023. The Bills selected Ford in the second round of the 2019 NFL draft out of the University of Oklahoma, but the 25-year-old has mostly disappointed in his first three seasons in the […]

Romeo Doubs Being Held To Higher Standard

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he's holding rookie wide receiver Romeo Doubs to a higher standard at training camp based on how well he's played to this point, even though Rodgers said many times that expectations need to be "reasonable" for rookie wideouts.

Packers Consider Both Aaron Jones, A.J. Dillon Starters

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur called running backs Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon back "1A and 1A." "They're two of the premier backs in our league, in my opinion.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) returned to training camp practice on Monday. He did some jogging and his hamstring appeared to be holding up.

Kansas City Royals rookie first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino (shoulder) left the game early on Monday against the Chicago White Sox with right shoulder discomfort.
