New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton (abdomen) and kicker Nick Folk (back) were both limited in practice on Tuesday.

Cam Akers Gets In Limited Practice
Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Cam Akers (shoulder) and defensive lineman Michael Brockers (knee) were both limited in practice on Tuesday.

Raiders Visiting With Spencer Ware
The Las Vegas Raiders are bringing in veteran running back Spencer Ware for a visit. The Raiders are expecting Josh Jacobs (knee), who missed the Week 13 win over the Jets, to miss another game, so it's no surprise that they are looking for reinforcements at the position behind Devontae Booker, Jalen Richard and Theo […]

49ers Release Jordan Matthews
The San Francisco 49ers released wide receiver Jordan Matthews from the practice squad on Tuesday. Matthews never made it to San Francisco's active roster this year despite all of their injuries to key skill players.

Denver Broncos cornerback A.J. Bouye is facing a suspension for performance-enhancing drug use, according to a source.

The Kansas City Royals agreed to a two-year, $17 million deal with first baseman Carlos Santana on Tuesday, according to sources.

Fiers, 35, went 6-3 with a 4.58 ERA in 11 starts for the A's during the shortened 2020 season, adding 37 strikeouts in his 59 innings pitched. The veteran right-hander doesn't move the needle all that […]

White Sox Targeting Michael Brantley?
The Chicago White Sox probably aren't going to sign free-agent outfielder George Springer because of his price tag and the fact that they already have a star center fielder in Luis Robert. Instead, Chicago could target a corner outfielder like Michael Brantley, especially because they're seeking a left-handed bat. The 33-year-old hit .300/.364/.476 with five […]

Boston Red Sox general manager Brian O'Halloran said on Monday that "Jackie Bradley Jr. is still on our radar."

Darrynton Evans Back From Injured Reserve
The Tennessee Titans activated rookie running back Darrynton Evans (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Monday and also activated offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson from the suspended list.

Broncos Defense Slows Down The Chiefs In Week 13
The Denver Broncos Defense looked really impressive in the Week 13 Sunday night loss to the division-rival Chiefs and their exciting and high-scoring offense. In their first meeting in Week 7, Denver allowed 40-plus points in the snow, so this was certainly an improvement against the defending Super Bowl champions. It was even more impressive […]

Brandon McManus Misses Second Field Goal Of The Season
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus made a 53-yard field goal in the 22-16 Week 13 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday night, but he also missed just his second field-goal attempt on the year -- a 57-yard try at the end of the first half. He made his only extra point in the contest. Despite […]

Jerry Jeudy Hits Rock Bottom In Week 13
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy was touted as the best route-running wideout in the 2020 draft class. Jeudy no doubt is impressive in that aspect for a young player, but quarterback Drew Lock's regression in his second season has hurt the rookie's fantasy value. The 21-year-old had just one catch on four targets […]

K.J. Hamler Catches Just Two Passes Sunday
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler did very little in the 22-16 loss to the division-rival Chiefs on Sunday night.

Tim Patrick Scores Twice In Loss To KC
Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick scored the team's only two touchdowns in the Week 13 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday night. Patrick was efficient, too, catching all four of his targets for 44 yards. The 27-year-old has been a nice story for the Broncos this year as their most reliable pass-catcher to help […]

Noah Fant Leads Broncos In Receiving Against Chiefs
Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant led the team with 57 receiving yards by catching four of his team-leading seven targets in the 22-16 Sunday night loss to the division-rival Chiefs.
