Buccaneers Not Worried About Mike Evans' Targets

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers coach Kevin Garver isn't exactly worried about wide receiver Mike Evans' lack of targets this year, explaining that the offense is run by a quarterback (future Hall of Famer Tom Brady) who spreads the wealth. The Bucs receiving corps ranks among the top 10 in the NFL, but Evans (34 […]

Luke Willson Trying Out For Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens are working out former Seahawks tight end Luke Willson on Wednesday. Willson was released by Seattle and was a victim of a crowded tight end room. Baltimore has only Mark Andrews and Nick Boyle on their active roster, so they might be looking to add some veteran depth at the position. Willson […]

Chiefs Put Mecole Hardman On COVID-19 List

The Kansas City Chiefs placed wide receiver Mecole Hardman on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. It's unclear if Harman actually tested positive for the virus or if he was deemed a high-risk close contact to someone else that did. The good news for the Chiefs and Hardman is that Kansas City is on their bye […]

Raheem Mostert Ruled Out For Week 10

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert (ankle) was hoping to return in Week 10 against the Saints, but head coach Kyle Shanahan has already ruled the running back out for this weekend.

Bengals Defense Claims Takkarist McKinley Off Waivers

The Cincinnati Bengals claimed former Atlanta Falcons first-round defensive end Takkarist McKinley off waivers on Wednesday. Cincinnati traded disgruntled defensive end Carlos Dunlap to the Seahawks at the deadline this year, so they'll replace him with another player looking for a change of scenery.

Right-handed pitcher Josh Tomlin agreed to a $1 million deal on Wednesday to return to the Atlanta Braves for a third season. The deal includes a 2022 team option worth $1.25 million.

Titans Activate Adoree' Jackson From Injured Reserve

The Tennessee Titans activated cornerback Adoree' Jackson (knee) from Injured Reserve, but he will not play on Thursday night against the Colts. Jackson's return will take a lot of pressure off cornerback Malcolm Butler on the outside, but he won't be able to help them against Indianapolis this week. With the 25-year-old available probably next […]

49ers Defense Loses Jaquiski Tartt To Injured Reserve

The San Francisco 49ers placed safety Jaquiski Tartt (toe) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday.

Sterling Shepard, Devonta Freeman Limited In Practice

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (hip, toe) and running back Devonta Freeman (ankle) were both limited in practice on Wednesday.

Christian McCaffrey Dealing With AC Joint Injury

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said that running back Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) is dealing with an AC joint issue in his shoulder and "probably" won't play in Week 10 against the division-rival Buccaneers.

Jack Doyle Out, Mo Alie-Cox Questionable

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday night's game against the Titans. Meanwhile, tight end Mo Alie-Cox (knee) was a full practice participant on Wednesday, but he is listed as questionable for the Week 10 contest.

T.Y. Hilton Will Play On Thursday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (groin), who missed the Week 9 loss to the Ravens with a groin injury, is off the final injury report this week and will play against the Titans on Thursday night. It's good news for the Colts offense coming off a loss, but it's really hard to trust Hilton […]

Joey Bosa Still In Concussion Protocol

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that defensive end Joey Bosa (concussion) will take part in individual drills in practice on Wednesday, but the pass-rusher remains in the league's concussion protocol. Bosa was inactive in the Week 9 loss to the division-rival Raiders, but he looks to be making progress this week and […]

Kenyan Drake Returns To Practice Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals running back Kenyan Drake (ankle) returned to practice on Wednesday.

If Drake returns to his lead-back role for Arizona this Sunday, he'd be in the […]

George Springer Rejects Astros Qualifying Offer

Outfielder George Springer officially rejected the Houston Astros qualifying offer of $18.9 million for the 2021 season on Wednesday. Springer will now be free to sign with any team.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) didn't take part in team drills at practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Mixon didn't play in Weeks 7 or 8 and had the Week 9 bye to rest up, but it looks like he still might have a difficult time getting cleared in time […]

Bengals Practice-Squad Player Tests Positive For COVID-19

Cincinnati Bengals defensive back Winston Rose, a practice-squad player, was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday after testing positive for the virus. As a result, the Bengals are holding a handful of defensive backs out of practice on Wednesday, according to sources. The expectation is that they will return on Thursday, so they aren't […]

Christian McCaffrey Won't Play In Week 10

Updating a previous report, Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) will not play in Week 10 against the division-rival Buccaneers, according to a league source.

Bryce Love Returning To Practice

Washington Football Team running back Bryce Love (knee) is returning to practice on Wednesday.

The 23-year-old from Stanford missed all […]

Baker Mayfield Activated From COVID-19 List

The Cleveland Browns officially activated quarterback Baker Mayfield from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday.

Preston Williams Going On Injured Reserve

The Miami Dolphins are placing wide receiver Preston Williams (foot) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday. Williams will miss at least the next three weeks after being carted to the locker room in the Week 9 win over the Cardinals. The 23-year-old was really becoming a valuable fantasy asset with rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa taking a […]

Marlon Humphrey Activated From COVID-19 List

The Baltimore Ravens activated cornerback Marlon Humphrey from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, and he will play in Week 10 against the Patriots. Humphrey will wind up just missing one game after testing positive for COVID-19 last week. His return is great news for an already strong Ravens Defense, but the All-Pro will certainly make […]

Ben Roethlisberger Has Good Chance Of Playing Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who was placed on the COVID-19 list this week because he was deemed as a high-risk close contact of tight end Vance McDonald, has a very good chance of playing in Week 10 against the division-rival Bengals. His last close contact with McDonald came on Sunday, so if Roethlisberger continues […]

Boras also said that Sanchez's fastball is averaging between 2,700 and 2,800 rpm. "He'll be a starting pitcher (in 2020)," Boras said.

New York Mets president Sandy Alderson said that he's a fan of free-agent starting pitcher Trevor Bauer's brash personality.
