Tytus Howard Will Play Tackle

Houston Texans head coach Lovie Smith said that offensive tackle Tytus Howard will play tackle again for the team in 2022. Rookie Kenyon Green, the No. 15 overall pick in the draft, will start at left guard. It was likely that Howard was set for a tackle spot when the team picked up his fifth-year […]

Lions Claim John Cominsky Off Waivers

Will Fuller Not On Browns Radar

Former Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller is not currently on the Cleveland Browns radar, even though a source said he'd love to come play with quarterback Deshaun Watson again.

Khalil Shakir Injured At OTAs

Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Khalil Shakir didn't take part in Tuesday's organized team activities due to an undisclosed injury. He had the back of one of his legs taped as he worked on the side with the strength and conditioning staff. If it's a soft-tissue injury, there's the risk that Shakir will lose out […]

Isaiah McKenzie's Speed Stands Out

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie showed excellent speed in and out of his breaks during organized team activities on Tuesday. He was precise with his route-running, and his quickness stood out from the rest of the receivers. That type of speed and deceptiveness will make him a nuisance against one-on-one defending. Meanwhile, second-year pass-catcher […]

James Cook Looks Impressive As Pass-Catcher

Buffalo Bills rookie running back James Cook looked smooth while catching the ball during organized team activities on Tuesday. Cook's hands looked steady while some players struggled to catch passes throughout the day due to the wind.

The Seattle Seahawks and first-round offensive tackle Charles Cross agreed on a four-year, fully guaranteed $21.384 million deal on Wednesday.

Wander Franco Hopes To Return In Two Weeks

Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Wander Franco (quadriceps), who was put on the injured list on Tuesday with a strained right quadriceps muscle, said he feels good and hopes to return in around two weeks.

Josh Donaldson Could Return Soon

The New York Yankees are encouraged that third baseman Josh Donaldson (shoulder) will come off the 10-day injured list soon.

Giancarlo Stanton Could Return This Week

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (ankle) took batting practice on the field before Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels, and the Yankees are encouraged that he could come off the injured list later this week.

Rashaad Penny Participating In OTAs

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is practicing at the team's voluntary organized team activities this week after he missed last week with a sore hamstring. Given Penny's extensive injury history, a lot was made about him missing OTAs last week due to injury. But the 26-year-old is already back and should be fine […]

Another lawsuit has been filed against Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, bringing the total of active civil lawsuits against him to 23.

Kyle Lewis Could Go On Concussion Injured List

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis (head, neck) is dealing with concussion-like effects after taking a ball to the shoulder and then the head/neck area over the weekend, and the Mariners may place him on the concussion injured list.

St. Louis Cardinals rookie infielder Nolan Gorman is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the San Diego Padres and left-hander Blake Snell.

Yoan Moncada Still Absent Tuesday

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Moncada served as a pinch-hitter in Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs, but he hasn't started a game since last Wednesday with a left quadriceps injury. An injured list stint remains a possibility for […]

Mets Option Dominic Smith

The New York Mets optioned first baseman/outfielder Dominic Smith to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday and recalled right-hander Adonis Medina from Syracuse in a corresponding move. Smith has been atrocious this year, hitting just .186/.287/.256 with no home runs, 14 RBI, seven runs scored and 24 strikeouts in 101 plate appearances over 39 games, so he'll […]
