The Carolina Panthers informed veteran linebacker Shaq Thompson that they will not attempt to re-sign him in free agency this offseason.

Fernando Tatis Jr. Still Dealing With Illness

MLB.com's AJ Cassavell reports that San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (illness) is still dealing with an illness, and it's unclear when he'll make his Cactus League debut.

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that right-hander Bobby Miller (head) will resume throwing on Monday in camp.

Will Smith Could Play In Cactus League Game Later This Week

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said on Monday that catcher Will Smith (ankle) could make his Cactus League debut by Thursday or Friday of this week.

Freddie Freeman Could Make Spring Debut On Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said on Monday that first baseman Freddie Freeman (ankle) could make his Cactus League debut on Thursday.

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman threw a live batting practice session on Sunday in camp and will have one more "and then get into games," according to manager John Schneider.

Mark Andrews A Potential Salary Cap Casualty?

ESPN's Dan Graziano writes that it's possible that Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews could be a salary cap casualty this offseason. The 29-year-old is scheduled to make $11 million in 2025 -- a $4 million roster bonus due on March 17 and $7 million in salary. Andrews' salary cap number is $16.9 million, and […]

Free-agent veteran outfielder Mark Canha signed a minor-league deal with an invitation to major-league spring training on Saturday with the Milwaukee Brewers, according to the New York Post's Jon Heyman.

Jonathan Allen Could Be Salary Cap Casualty

The Athletic's Ben Standig suggests that Washington Commanders defensive tackle Jonathan Allen, who is headed into the final year of his four-year, $72 million extension, could be a salary cap casualty this offseason. Allen has a $22.47 million cap hit in 2025 but only a $6 million dead-cap charge. The Commanders have plenty of cap […]

Treylon Burks Could Use A Fresh Start Elsewhere

The move to trade wide receiver A.J. Brown and replace him with Treylon Burks (knee) was one of the worst personnel moves in Tennessee Titans franchise history, and one of the worst in recent NFL memory, and The Athletic's Joe Rexrode thinks the Titans need to stop waiting for Burks to be a factor. Rexrode […]

Jamel Dean A Cut Candidate For Buccaneers

The Athletic's Dan Pompei singles out Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Jamel Dean as a potential salary cap casualty this offseason, mainly because his 2025 cap hit of $15.2 million ranks eighth-highest among all NFL cornerbacks. Tampa also is projected to have only $11.7 million in cap space, so they will certainly be looking to save […]

Dre'Mont Jones' Cap Figure Is Untenable

The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar writes that Seattle Seahawks linebacker Dre'Mont Jones' $25.6 million salary cap hit appears to be untenable. Jones is only 28 years old, but he might be the team's fifth-best pass-rusher when everyone is healthy, and the Seahawks could save $11.5 million by trading or releasing him. Seattle signed Jones to a […]

Steelers Could Be Looking To Replace Larry Ogunjobi

The Pittsburgh Steelers are scheduled to have the NFL's highest-paid defensive for the fourth straight season in 2025 but can save $7 million of defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi's $10 million salary cap hit by cutting him this offseason, according to The Athletic's Mike DeFabo. Since joining the Steelers in 2022, Ogunjobi has only reached double […]

Darius Slay Has Sixth-Highest Cap Hit For Eagles

The Athletic's Brooks Kubena suggests that Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay, who has the sixth-highest salary cap hit on the team in 2025, could be a cap casualty this offseason. Cutting the 34-year-old Slay with a post-June 1 designation would save the team $4.3 million this year and $17.7 million in 2026. The six-time Pro […]

Graham Gano Could Be On His Way Out

The New York Giants don't have any big contracts that they need to shed this offseason and are in a pretty healthy salary cap situation in 2025, but The Athletic's Dan Duggan suggests that kicker Graham Gano could still be a cap casualty as the Giants look to save a little extra money. The 37-year-old […]

Saints Could Cut Derek Carr

Although reports to this point suggest that the New Orleans Saints will keep quarterback Derek Carr around in new head coach Kellen Moore's first season in 2025, The Athletic's Amos Morale III also points out that Carr is the most obvious cut candidate as well. Moore was non-committal about Carr's future during his introductory press […]

Patriots To Move On From Kendrick Bourne?

The Athletic's Chad Graff suggests that it could be time for the New England Patriots to move on from wide receiver Kendrick Bourne this offseason, even if he's their top player at their biggest position of need. Bourne missed the start of the 2024 season while recovering from a torn right ACL and caught only […]

Vikings Likely To Move On From Ed Ingram

The Athletic's Alec Lewis writes that the Minnesota Vikings cutting offensive guard Ed Ingram this offseason makes sense if the team is serious about improving their trench play.

Jason Sanders Could Be A Cap Casualty

The Miami Dolphins have already cut veteran running back Raheem Mostert, cornerback Kendall Fuller and tight end Durham Smythe this offseason, and The Athletic's Jim Ayello suggests that kicker Jason Sanders could be the next on the chopping block. The Dolphins have one of the worst salary cap situations in the league this year, and […]

Rams Could Cut Cooper Kupp

The Athletic's Jourdan Rodriguez writes that if the Los Angeles Rams can't trade wide receiver Cooper Kupp this offseason, they could cut him instead. Things are a bit tricky, though: Cutting him before June 1 would incur $22.26 million in dead money while saving only $7.5 million. Kupp has a roster bonus of $7.5 million […]

Something Has To Give With Joey Bosa

The Athletic's Daniel Popper suggests that Los Angeles Chargers edge rusher Joey Bosa could be a salary cap casualty this offseason for several reasons. The Chargers do have the sixth-most salary cap space in the league, but even with all that space, keeping Bosa at his $36.47 million cap hit (highest in the league for […]

Jaguars Hire James Gladstone As New General Manager

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Friday that the Jacksonville Jaguars hired Los Angeles Rams personnel executive James Gladstone to be their new general manager.

Steelers Sign Donald Parham Jr. To One-Year Deal

The Pittsburgh Steelers announced on Friday that they signed free-agent tight end Donald Parham Jr. to an undisclosed one-year deal.

Philadelphia Eagles pass-rusher Nolan Smith (triceps) had surgery on Wednesday for a torn triceps muscle that he suffered in the Super Bowl LIX win over the Kansas City Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

San Francisco Chronicle's Eric Branch writes that the San Francisco 49ers and star tight end George Kittle have been in talks about a contract extension early this offseason.
