The New York Jets haven't budged on their two-year, $8 million offer to tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins, a deal that was put on the table before the season ended. There remains interest on both sides to get a deal done, but it's looking more likely that Seferian-Jenkins will hit the open market. ASF is already... Read More

Bills A Team To Watch For Sam Bradford, Case Keenum

The Minnesota Vikings continue to stay in touch with free-agent quarterback Sam Bradford (knee), but the Buffalo Bills are one team to watch if he can pass a physical.

Kirk Cousins To Receive Rich Offers

Sources are saying that at least two teams are willing to offer free-agent quarterback Kirk Cousins a three-year, fully-guaranteed deal if that's what it takes. At least one other team will do a similar deal that is almost fully guaranteed. Cousins will almost certainly become the highest paid quarterback in the NFL this offseason, with... Read More

Cardinals Expected To Release Adrian Peterson

The Arizona Cardinals are expected to release running back Adrian Peterson on Monday, according to a source.

Peterson did next to nothing... Read More

Zach Davies Throws Without Issue Monday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies (oblique) pitched three innings in an intrasquad game on Monday without issues, and his oblique issue appears to be behind him. That's assuming he has no setbacks from here on out before Opening Day. The right-hander was impressive with a 17-9 record, 3.90 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 5.8 K/9... Read More

Yovani Gallardo Moving To Relief Role

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Yovani Gallardo will move to a relief role, beginning with his next spring outing. The veteran right-hander posted a career-worst 5.72 ERA while posting a 1.52 WHIP and 6.5 K/9 in 28 games (22 starts) for Seattle last year, and he's become useless to fantasy owners, especially in a relief role.... Read More

Stephen Vogt Suffers Setback While Throwing

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Stephen Vogt (shoulder) suffered a setback while attempting his throwing program on Monday. He'll visit with a doctor before the team determines the next step, but at this point, it looks unlikely that he'll be ready for Opening Day. Vogt was battling Jett Bandy for backup catcher duties to Manny Pina this... Read More

Chase Anderson To Start On Opening Day

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Chase Anderson will start on Opening Day against the Padres, with Jhoulys Chacin starting one of the other days against San Diego, according to manager Craig Counsell.

Chargers Signing Casey Hayward To Extension

The Los Angeles Chargers are signing cornerback Casey Hayward to a three-year extension worth $36 million, according to a source.

Two Teams Interested In Austin Seferian-Jenkins

The Seattle Seahawks and Atlanta Falcons are very interested in free-agent tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins, although the New York Jets would like to re-sign him.

Dion Lewis Won't Lack For Suitors

Free-agent running back Dion Lewis will be quite attractive to plenty of teams in free agency because of his ability to be effective in space and because of his power between the tackles. The Patriots will fight to retain him, but the expectation is he'll be too expensive to retain. The Jets, Titans, Colts, Buccaneers,... Read More

Plenty Of Interest In Allen Robinson

Free-agent wide receiver Allen Robinson already has plenty of interest in his services, including the 49ers, Bears, Browns, Ravens, Panthers and Jaguars. The Bears and Browns have plenty of salary cap space, while the Ravens, Panthers and Jaguars have cap constraints. Robinson will be at the top of the receiver market. He missed last year... Read More

Broncos Expected To Pick Up Demaryius Thomas' Option

The Denver Broncos are expected to officially pick up wide receiver Demaryius Thomas' $4 million option in the next day or so before the deadline to do so on Wednesday.

The Arizona Cardinals will target free-agent quarterback Kirk Cousins and offensive guard Andrew Norwell in free agency.

However, Cousins is expected to land with the Vikings, Broncos or Jets,... Read More

Robinson Cano To Undergo MRI

Seattle Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano (hamstring) will undergo a precautionary MRI exam on Monday, but he doesn't think his hamstring injury is serious. While Cano may not miss more than a few days in camp, it's a reminder that at age 35, he's no longer a lock to stay healthy over a full season.... Read More

J.T. Realmuto Injures Back Sunday

Miami Marlins catcher J.T. Realmuto (back) was removed from the spring game early Sunday with a lower back contusion. Realmuto has been beat up lately, as he missed some time late last week with a minor knee injury as well.

Corey Knebel Says He's Fine

Milwaukee Brewers closer Corey Knebel (knee) said he is fine and occasionally deals with tendinitis in his knee. He is not expecting to miss any time in spring training. Those that already own Knebel can take a sigh of relief for now. The hard-throwing right-hander posted an amazing 14.9 K/9 and 39 saves in a... Read More

Nelson Cruz Out Sick Again

Seattle Mariners designated hitter Nelson Cruz (flu) was scratched from the Cactus League lineup for the second straight day with the flu. The big bopper should be fine in the long run. He managed 39 home runs and 119 RBI in 2017 and should once again threaten the 30-homer mark and could once again put... Read More

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie Being Released

The New York Giants informed cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie that he is being released Sunday, according to a source. The team will save $6.5 million against the salary cap by cutting him.

Odell Beckham Jr. Posts Troubling Video

The New York Giants are aware of a potentially troubling video that wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. posted Friday while on a Nike-sponsored trip in Europe.

Panthers Interested In Quarterback This Offseason

The Carolina Panthers are heavily interested in adding a veteran quarterback this offseason, as they want to upgrade on backup Derek Anderson given the physical nature of Cam Newton's play. The Browns, Jets, Vikings, Broncos and Cardinals are other teams heavily in on the quarterback market. While Newton does have a physical style of play... Read More

Mike Gillislee May Have Another Opportunity

Things are looking good for New England Patriots running back Mike Gillislee to get another shot at significant playing time in 2018 with free-agent Dion Lewis unlikely to return. Gillislee was pretty much a non-factor last year, rushing for only 383 yards in nine games, and he was a healthy scratch for much of the... Read More

Felix Hernandez Feeling Stronger

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Felix Hernandez (foreram) threw aggressively on flat ground Saturday, and manager Scott Servais isn't ruling Hernandez out to pitch in his 10th straight Opening Day, although James Paxton seems more likely to get the nod.

Paulo Orlando Out 3-6 Days

Kansas City Royals outfielder Paulo Orlando (hamstring) will be out three to six days with a Grade 1 hamstring strain, according to manager Ned Yost.

Mike Moustakas Could See Time At First Base

Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost said he could give third baseman Mike Moustakas a look at first base in spring training. It would be another way to get infielder Cheslor Cuthbert some playing time. It's an interesting proposition, as Moose would be more valuable to fantasy owners if he added first base eligibility, but... Read More

Richard Sherman Expected To Be Ready For Camp

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman (Achilles) is expected to be ready for training camp this summer, according to sources.

Giants Ask Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie To Take Pay Cut

The New York Giants have asked cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie to take a significant pay cut from the $6.5 million he's owed in 2018, according to sources.
