Ben Roethlisberger Throwing The Football

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) was seen lightly throwing a football in a video that the Steelers posted on Twitter on Saturday.

He's focused on returning to finish out his contract, […]

Danny Amendola Re-Signs With Lions

The Detroit Lions re-signed wide receiver Danny Amendola to a one-year deal on Saturday, according to his agent, Erik Burkhardt.

Seth Lugo Back On A Mound Saturday

New York Mets pitcher Seth Lugo (pinkie) returned to the mound on Saturday and threw a bullpen session five days after breaking his pinkie toe in an accident in his hotel room. It's obviously not a very serious injury and Lugo should be ready to go by Opening Day. The 30-year-old right-hander is extremely valuable […]

Jets Sign Josh Doctson

The New York Jets signed wide receiver Josh Doctson to an undisclosed deal on Saturday. Doctson was taken 22nd overall in the first round by the Redskins in 2016, but he's mostly been a disappointment in his career to this point. He finished three seasons with Washington with 81 catches, 1,100 yards and eight touchdowns. […]

Jimmy Nelson Throws Successful Bullpen

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson (back, groin) came out of his bullpen session on Friday healthy, according to manager Dave Roberts.

Joc Pederson Dealing With Sore Hip

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson (hip) had a light day on Friday to receive treatment for a sore right hip, which he said was a minor injury.

Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen threw a bullpen session on Friday with Rick Honeycutt, Orel Hershiser and Joel Peralta in order to work on his slider.

Mookie Betts To Lead Off For Dodgers

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that outfielder Mookie Betts will be the team's primary leadoff hitter in 2019. Betts has hit leadoff in 562 of his career 780 at-bats. The 2018 American League MVP and four-time All-Star is moving to the top of perhaps the best lineup in baseball. He hit .295/.391/.524 with […]

Austin Hooper Could Reset Tight End Market

Atlanta Falcons two-time Pro Bowl tight end Austin Hooper will become a free agent on March 16, and he could reset the tight end market with his next deal.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have considered signing quarterback Jameis Winston to a two-year deal this offseason, with the first year guaranteed and the second year a team option, according to sources.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (abdomen), who had surgery on Jan. 21 on a core muscle, posted a video on his Instagram of him running on a treadmill on Thursday.

The Chicago Bears are releasing wide receiver Taylor Gabriel and cornerback Prince Amukamara on Friday, according to a source.

Tyrell Williams Making Good Progress

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tyrell Williams (foot) is making good progress from the plantar fasciitis issues he dealt with last season. In his first year with the Raiders, Williams caught 42 passes for 651 yards and six touchdowns. He only missed two games but was slowed by his foot issues, mostly in the second […]

Alshon Jeffery May Be Open To Trade

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery could be open to a trade if the team explores one this offseason. However, he could be tough to trade coming off a Lisfranc foot injury while having high salary cap numbers the next two seasons. Jeffery has a history of injuries during his playing career and managed to […]

Chances Improving That Trent Williams Stays With Redskins

The Washington Redskins are growing increasingly hopeful that left tackle Trent Williams will return to the team, as head coach Ron Rivera has made him one of his offseason priorities in trying to get him to return.

Colts Linked To Nelson Agholor

The Indianapolis Colts are expected to be in the market for wide receivers this offseason, and they've already been linked to Philadelphia Eagles impending free-agent wide receiver Nelson Agholor. Agholor had his best season in 2017 when Frank Reich and Mike Groh were offensive assistants -- they are both with the Colts now. In just […]

Brendan McKay Dealing With Shoulder Soreness

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said that starting pitcher/designated hitter Brendan McKay (shoulder) has been dealing with some shoulder stiffness, but the two-way prospect threw from 120 feet on Friday, so the injury isn't believed to be serious. McKay has yet to throw a bullpen session in camp. The 24-year-old hits from the left […]

Rockies, White Sox The Front-Runners For Yasiel Puig

The Colorado Rockies and Chicago White Sox have emerged as the front-runners to sign outfielder Yasiel Puig. Puig is easily the biggest name left on the free-agent market, but he could have a home soon. Landing with either team would be enticing from a fantasy point of view, but the main question would be how […]

Gregory Polanco To DH In First Two Spring Games

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Gregory Polanco (shoulder) will be used as a designated hitter in his first two spring games, according to manager Derek Shelton. Polanco isn't really limited at all physically in camp, but the Pirates are slow playing it with him after he's dealt with shoulder problems the last two seasons. Some fantasy managers […]

No Timetable For Alex Verdugo

Boston Red Sox manager Ron Roenicke said that the team still doesn't have a timetable on outfielder Alex Verdugo (back). Verdugo is running outside and also threw for the first time since September on Thursday. It sounds like he's making some progress from a stress fracture in his back, but it seems more likely than […]

Luis Severino Leaves Camp For Testing

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (elbow) has left camp and is headed to New York for a battery of tests starting Monday. The Yankees don't know how long Severino will need to be shut down, and manager Aaron Boone said it's too early to say if the 26-year-old will be ready for the […]

Lions Releasing Damon Harrison

The Detroit Lions plan to release defensive tackle Damon Harrison in the coming days, according to a source. The move will free up around $6.7 million in salary cap space but will leave the team with a hole on their defensive line up the middle. Even though Snacks Harrison had a down year in 2019 […]

Bengals Want To Keep A.J. Green

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said on Thursday that wide receiver A.J. Green is "a guy we want to be around." Green hasn't played in a game since December of 2018 and hasn't been a Pro Bowler since 2017 in his last full season. He's due to become a free agent next month and […]

Titans Not Expected To Exercise Corey Davis' Option

The Tennessee Titans aren't expected to pick up wide receiver Corey Davis' fifth-year team option for the 2021 season.

Redskins Officially Release Jordan Reed

The Washington Redskins released tight end Jordan Reed on Thursday. The move was expected and will save the team $8.5 million in salary cap space.

Jarvis Landry To Be Sidelined 6-8 Months

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (hip) is expected to be sidelined six to eight months after having surgery to shave down some cartilage and remove two pieces of bone embedded in the labrum of his left hip on Feb. 4. The Browns expect Landry to make a full recovery for the 2020 season, but […]

Aristides Aquino Has Minor League Options Left

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Aristides Aquino, who burst onto the scene in 2019, has minor league options remaining, which will make it even tougher to crack the Opening Day roster after the Reds added outfielders Nick Castellanos and Shogo Akiyama in free agency. Aquino hit .320 with 14 home runs and a 1.160 OPS in his […]

Rowdy Tellez On The Roster Bubble

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Rowdy Tellez appears to be facing an uphill battle to make the roster out of spring training. Toronto must pick three of infielder Joe Panik, outfielders Derek Fisher and Anthony Alford and Tellez. Fisher and Alford are out of minor league options and Panik is almost a sure bet to […]
