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. New England also cut Tre Nixon on Tuesday. The Patriots just have too much receiver depth this year after the addition of DeVante Parker. In addition to Parker, the Patriots have […]

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.

Jimmy Garoppolo Could Still Be Traded

The San Francisco 49ers and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo agreed to a restructured one-year deal on Monday that is worth $6.5 million in fully guaranteed base salary.

Darius Slayton Makes Initial 53-Man Roster

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton will be on the team's initial 53-man roster.

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.

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.

Jesse Chavez Back With The Braves

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

Fernando Tatis Jr.'s Shoulder Surgery Postponed

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr.'s shoulder surgery is being postponed due to a non-COVID-19-related illness involving strep throat and a fever.

Cowboys Release Cooper Rush

The Dallas Cowboys released quarterback Cooper Rush on Tuesday, according to a person familiar with the move.

Devin Asiasi Waived By Patriots

The New England Patriots waived tight end Devin Asiasi (quadriceps) on Tuesday, according to a source. The Patriots also waived former third-rounder Dalton Keene on Tuesday.

Texans Release Marlon Mack

The Houston Texans released veteran running back Marlon Mack on Tuesday, according to a source. Although rookie Dameon Pierce was already trending upward as the likely primary back heading into the start of the regular season, Mack's release comes as a pretty big surprise. The 26-year-old was looking fully healthy after a devastating Achilles injury […]

Tyler Johnson Can't Survive Roster Cuts

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers cut wide receiver Tyler Johnson on Tuesday, according to a source. Johnson had a good training camp, but the Bucs just have too many capable bodies in the receiver room. The former fifth-rounder played in all 17 regular season games a year ago and caught 36 of his 55 targets for […]

Packers Waive Tyler Goodson

The Green Bay Packers waived rookie running back Tyler Goodson on Tuesday, according to a source. However, the Packers would like to bring him back on the practice squad if he's not claimed off waivers. Goodson had a strong preseason, so there's a chance another team could take a crack at him. In three seasons […]

The Philadelphia Eagles acquired starting safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson and a seventh-round pick in the 2025 draft from the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday in exchange for a fifth-rounder in 2023 and a sixth-round selection in 2024.

Brian Robinson On The Initial 53-Man Roster

Washington Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson is on the team's initial 53-man roster, and Jonathan Williams was also added as the third running back behind Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic, likely until Robinson is healthy. Robinson's inclusion on the 53-man roster seems like an indication that the team believes he'll be back sooner than […]
