Yankees To Make A Run At Freddie Freeman?

The New York Yankees have met with the representatives for all of the top left-handed-hitting first basemen, including Freddie Freeman. The Atlanta Braves seem likely to re-sign Freeman, while retaining Anthony Rizzo or trading for Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson might be more realistic options for the Yankees. Freeman, the 2020 National League MVP, […]

Carlos Correa Officially Declines Qualifying Offer

Star free-agent shortstop Carlos Correa officially declined the Houston Astros' one-year, $18.4 million qualifying offer on Monday. This comes as no surprise, as Correa is at the top of the prized free-agent shortstop market this offseason. The 27-year-old will be highly sought after, perhaps primarily by the New York Yankees, and is unlikely to return […]

Manny Pina Signs With Braves

The Atlanta Braves signed catcher Manny Pina to a two-year, $8 million deal on Monday that includes a $4 million team option for the 2024 season.

Cowboys Optimistic About Tyron Smith For Week 11

Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) is dealing with a bone spur in his ankle and will eventually need surgery, but the team thinks he has a good chance of playing in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Teven Jenkins, Deon Bush Return To Practice

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that rookie offensive tackle Teven Jenkins (back) and safety Deon Bush (quadriceps) returned to practice on Monday, opening their 21-day window to be activated from Injured Reserve.

Mekhi Becton Out Another 1-3 Weeks

New York Jets left tackle Mekhi Becton (knee) will not be able to practice for another one to three weeks, according to head coach Robert Saleh. "He's still working through some things," Saleh said.

Derek Wolfe Won't Make It Back In 2021

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that defensive end Derek Wolfe (back, hip) will not return to play in 2021. The Ravens opened Wolfe's 21-day practice window to return from Injured Reserve late last month, but apparently the 31-year-old pass-rusher just hasn't made any progress and won't play at all in his second season […]

Chris Carson Up In The Air For Week 11

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that the team will be "revisiting" running back Chris Carson's (neck) status when the team returns to practice on Wednesday. Carroll doesn't sound as optimistic about Carson as he did last week when the running back returned to practice. Carson remains on Injured Reserve and hasn't played since […]

Odell Beckham Jr., Ben Skowronek Active Monday Night

Los Angeles Rams wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. and Ben Skowronek (thigh) are both active on Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers.

Von Miller Will Make His Rams Debut Monday Night

Los Angeles Rams linebacker Von Miller (ankle) is good to go and will make his debut with the team on Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers, according to a source. Miller has been out of action since getting injured in Week 7 in what turned out to be his final game with the Denver […]

T.J. Watt's MRI Yields Positive Results

An MRI exam on Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt's injured hip and knee came back negative on Monday, but he is still sore, according to sources. Before the MRI, the Steelers were calling Watt week-to-week after he was injured in the third quarter of the Week 10 tie with the Detroit Lions. It's still unclear […]

Mitchell Trubisky Back From COVID-19 List

The Buffalo Bills activated quarterback Mitchell Trubisky from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday and released wide receiver Austin Proehl from the practice squad in a corresponding move.

Packers Release Blake Bortles From Practice Squad

The Green Bay Packers released quarterback Blake Bortles from the practice squad on Monday and activated quarterback Kurt Benkert from the practice squad Reserve/COVID-19 list in a corresponding move.

Jermar Jefferson Could Miss Some Time

Detroit Lions rookie running back Jermar Jefferson's ankle injury might not be as bad as the team initially feared, but head coach Dan Campbell said that he could wind up missing some time after getting carted off the field in the Week 10 tie with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 21-year-old seventh-rounder had three carries for […]

Chiefs Still Have High Hopes For Josh Gordon

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said it's only a matter of time before wide receiver Josh Gordon becomes a productive part of the team's offense. Reid has told Gordon to stay patient. The 30-year-old did play a season-high 43% of the offensive snaps in Sunday night's big win over the division-rival Las Vegas […]

Brandon Bolden, Jonnu Smith Limited Monday

New England Patriots running back Brandon Bolden (hip), tight end Jonnu Smith (shoulder), wide receiver N'Keal Harry (knee) and kicker Nick Folk (knee) were all listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report. Bolden and J.J. Taylor served as change-of-pace options behind rookie Rhamondre Stevenson in the Week 10 win over the Cleveland Browns with […]

Damien Harris Listed As Non-Participant Monday

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (concussion), who missed the Week 10 win over the Cleveland Browns, was listed as a DNP on Monday's estimated practice report. Harris will need to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to play on Thursday on a short week against the Atlanta Falcons, so fantasy managers should […]

Mike Williams' Injury A Non-Factor

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley said that wide receiver Mike Williams' knee injury hasn't been a factor in him posting disappointing numbers in the last four games. "The knee is not an issue. It's a non-factor," Staley said. Big Mike caught just four of his six targets for a disappointing 33 yards in […]

Devin Singletary Leads All RBs In Fumbles

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary led the team with 43 rushing yards on only seven carries in the Week 10 win over the New York Jets and had a nice 6.1 yards per carry, but he fumbled for the fifth time this season and leads all RBs in the NFL in fumbles. He has […]

Matt Breida Still A Distant Third RB For Bills

Although Buffalo Bills running back Matt Breida was active for the first time since Week 2 and scored two touchdowns in the Week 10 win over the New York Jets, he was still a distant third to both Zack Moss and Devin Singletary on Sunday. Moss led the way by playing 47% of the offensive […]

Cole Beasley Limited By Injury

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley (ribs) played just one snap in the fourth quarter in the Week 9 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he was barely involved in the Week 10 blowout win over the New York Jets. He played a season-low 18% of the offensive snaps (11 total snaps) and didn't play […]

Emmanuel Sanders Less Effective In Recent Weeks

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders had a big role in the offense early in the season, but he's been less effective of late and hasn't been getting much separation from defenders. The veteran wideout has only six catches for 92 yards in the last three games combined and has been inconsistent as a blocker […]

Hayden Hurst A Question Mark On Short Week

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst (ankle) was listed as a DNP on Monday's estimated practice report, leaving his availability in question for Thursday night against the New England Patriots in Week 11. Hurst wasn't targeted at all in the Week 10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys before leaving the game. With rookie Kyle Pitts […]

Colt McCoy Dealing With Pectoral Strain

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Colt McCoy (pectoral) suffered a pectoral strain in the Week 10 loss to the Carolina Panthers, according to a source. McCoy should be healthy enough to make another start in Week 11 against the Seattle Seahawks if Kyler Murray (ankle) misses his third straight game. The 35-year-old McCoy left Sunday's game in […]

Jets Remain Non-Committal On Zach Wilson

New York Jets quarterback Mike White will probably only start in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins if rookie first-rounder Zach Wilson (knee) needs more time to recover from a second-degree PCL sprain. White came back to Earth in a big way in the Week 10 blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills when he threw […]

CeeDee Lamb Doesn't Sound Worried About His Injury

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (arm) was kept out of a large portion of the second half in the Week 10 blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons with an arm contusion, but he finished the game with six catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns and didn't sound very worried about his injury. "I […]

Saquon Barkley Nearing A Return?

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was seen cutting during workouts on Monday and was able to do all of the individual drills in practice.
