Sam Darnold Hasn't Reported To Training Camp

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold hasn't reported to training camp as of Tuesday, according to a source. He's staying away because his contract isn't done yet.

Todd Gurley Finalizing Four-Year Extension

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley is finalizing a four-year extension worth $60 million on Tuesday. The deal includes $45 million in guarantees and will tie him to LA for the next six seasons. Gurley was a fantasy MVP last year in head coach Sean McVay's offense. With LA's offense only improving and quarterback […]

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Daniel Poncedeleon, who threw seven no-hit innings in his major league debut on Monday, is being optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday to make room for starting pitcher Austin Gomber.

Cubs Considering Dylan Bundy, Kevin Gausman

The Chicago Cubs have talked to the Baltimore Orioles regarding starting pitchers Dylan Bundy and Kevin Gausman, as well as closer Zach Britton, according to sources. As of Monday night, the Cubs didn't seem as engaged on Britton as other clubs. Bundy and Gausman haven't been that great for the O's or fantasy owners, but […]

Padres Making Push For Chris Archer

The San Diego Padres are making a "big push" to land Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer. However, any potential deal looks like a long shot because his team-friendly deal pays him just $7.5 million next year with club options for 2021 and 2022. The Padres would have to part with several young prospects […]

Hayden Hurst Returns To Practice

Baltimore Ravens rookie tight end Hayden Hurst returned to practice Tuesday after missing several practices with a soft-tissue injury. Hurst should be fine and is expected to see plenty of playing time in his first season in the NFL. He has interesting upside as a pass catcher but probably won't make a huge impact in […]

Malcolm Mitchell Did Not Have Surgery

New England Patriots wide receiver Malcolm Mitchell (knee) had a procedure on his knee, but it wasn't surgery. The procedure was done to accelerate healing, and the Patriots have also been trying to trade him. Mitchell showed promise in his rookie year but missed all of last season with the knee issues and doesn't appear […]

Spencer Ware Restructures Deal

The Kansas City Chiefs restructured their deal with running back Spencer Ware, with $725,000 of his $1.45 million base salary being converted into incentives, according to a source. He'll have a good shot at reaching those incentives and making the full $1.45 million. Ware is coming off a serious knee injury that kept him out […]

Curtis Samuel Expected To Be Cleared For Training Camp

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel (ankle), who suffered a season-ending injury in Week 10 of his rookie year, is expected to be fully cleared to take part in training camp. The Panthers will likely be cautious with the speedster. Samuel had only 19 catches for 179 yards without a score in his rookie campaign, […]

Christian McCaffrey Could See 200 Carries

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey will once again play a major part in the offense, and head coach Ron Rivera said he wouldn't be surprised if the second-year back reached 200 carries after having just 117 in 2017. The team is confident in McCaffrey's ability to run between the tackles, and he bulked up […]

Geronimo Allison A Good Bet To Be No. 3 Wideout

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison is the best bet to open the year as the No. 3 receiver behind Davante Adams and Randall Cobb. He'll have to fend off undrafted free agent Michael Clark and three rookie receivers, though. Allison has more opportunity in this offense with Jordy Nelson gone, and he had […]

Matt Nagy Likes Taylor Gabriel

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy is excited about all the ways he can use speedy wide receiver Taylor Gabriel in the offense this year. Nagy said Gabriel has been "everything we thought" since they signed him to a four-year deal in March. “He’s working through some adjustments within the play on what he does […]

Cameron Meredith Could Be No. 2 Receiver

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cameron Meredith is the best option as the team's No. 2 receiver behind Michael Thomas. Ted Ginn was the No. 2 last year, but Brandon Coleman played more snaps than him, showing that the Saints aren't set on facing a certain kind of receiver onto the field. Meredith is the […]

DeAndre Washington Not Expected To Make Team

Oakland Raiders running back Deandre Washington isn't expected to make the roster out of training camp over undrafted rookie Chris Warren. Warren adds a different dynamic to the running game at 6-foot-2, 246 pounds. Washington had only 57 carries for 153 yards (2.7 yards per carry) and two touchdowns in 15 games with the Raiders […]

Doug Martin Has Impressed Coaches

Oakland Raiders running back Doug Martin barely topped 400 yards each of the last two years with the Buccaneers, but head coach Jon Gruden likes him, and offensive coordinator Greg Olson said Martin "jumped out" during offseason workouts this spring. Martin could benefit from a change of scenery, but the 29-year-old averaged a weak 2.9 […]

Four Teams In the Running For Zach Britton

The Houston Astros, Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees and Chicago Cubs are the main teams in the running for Baltimore Orioles closer Zach Britton. Sources have said that both the Astros and Yankees have sweetened their offers in the last few days. Britton seems like a lock to be traded soon. Unfortunately for his […]

Trea Turner Likely To Sit Tuesday

Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner is unlikely to play on Tuesday after not running out a bunt on Monday, according to manager Dave Martinez. It's a bummer for Turner owners, but you'll want to make sure to remove him from your lineups in leagues with daily lineup moves. Turner is hitting .266 with 12 home […]

Seahawks Asking Price For Earl Thomas Not Dropping

The Seattle Seahawks "still want a really high price" for safety Earl Thomas, with the Dallas Cowboys still interested in him, according to sources. Thomas will hold out of training camp if the Seahawks don't give him a new deal, but Seattle has zero motivation to do that. Thomas is in the final year of […]

Chargers Would Like To Sign Antonio Gates Before Camp Begins

The Los Angeles Chargers would prefer to re-sign tight end Antonio Gates before training camp starts, according to a team source. There has been mutual interest from both sides in a reunion ever since Hunter Henry blew out his knee, so we're a bit surprised nothing has happened yet. Gates, 38, is a shell of […]

Yonny Chirinos To Start Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Yonny Chirinos will be called up from the minors to start on Tuesday against the Yankees. Chirinos has been decent for Tampa Bay this year with a 3.71 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 8.1 K/9 in six outings (five starts). He hasn't pitched into the sixth inning in any of his starts […]

Sergio Romo Unavailable Due To Flu

Tampa Bay Rays closer Sergio Romo was unavailable for a save chance on Monday because he has the stomach flu, according to manager Kevin Cash. Jose Alvarado closed out the game against the Yankees instead. Romo could be back in the ninth inning as soon as Tuesday if he's feeling better.

Magneuris Sierra To Be Called Up

The Miami Marlins will call up outfielder Magneuris Sierra from the minors on Tuesday to replace outfielder Garrett Cooper (hand) on the roster. Sierra came over to Miami in the deal that sent Marcell Ozuna to the Cardinals in the offseason. In 86 games for Triple-A New Orleans in 2018, Sierra has hit .260/.287/.341 with […]

Brandon Marshall Not A Lock To Make Roster

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Brandon Marshall isn't a lock to make the team out of training camp after he played in just five games with the Giants in 2017 due to a serious ankle injury. Marshall also had surgery on his toe. He had a career-low 18 receptions last year and didn't find the end […]

Nationals Discussing Cole Hamels

The Washington Nationals and Texas Rangers have had preliminary discussions regarding starting pitcher Cole Hamels, according to sources.

Alex Blandino Has Reconstructive Knee Surgery

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Alex Blandino (knee) underwent reconstructive surgery on his ACL and MCL in his right knee on Monday and is expected to be out for six to eight months.

Brandon McCarthy Has Been Throwing

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Brandon McCarthy (knee) has been throwing but still isn't 100 percent, according to manager Brian Snitker. "He’s throwing to keep his arm (fit), but he’s just playing catch. The knee’s still not 100 percent to where he can get up there and start torquing it on the mound," Snitker said. The […]

Avisail Garcia Scratched From Lineup

Chicago White Sox outfielder Avisail Garcia (illness) has been scratched from the lineup on Monday. Leury Garcia is starting in right field and is hitting sixth against Angels starter Jaime Barria. Garcia could be a DFS sleeper Monday night. He's batting a respectable .282 with four home runs, 21 RBI and 10 stolen bases over […]

Eli Rogers To Visit With Browns

Free-agent wide receiver Eli Rogers left his visit with the Chiefs without a deal and will now visit with the Cleveland Browns, according to a source.
