Crockett Gillmore Moving To Offensive Line

Baltimore Ravens impending free-agent tight end Crockett Gillmore is making the transition from tight end to offensive line and has been training with former player LeCharles Bentley, who runs an offensive line academy. Gillmore played in just seven games in 2017 and had eight receptions for 71 yards and one score. At 6-foot-6, 266 pounds, […]

Trevor Siemian Expected To Be On Trade Block

NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport said that Denver Broncos quarterback Trevor Siemian is expected to be available in a trade this offseason as the team aggressively looks to overhaul their quarterback room, according to a source informed of the situation. The Broncos could have Paxton Lynch and two new signal callers on the roster next […]

Panthers Could Cut Jonathan Stewart

The Carolina Panthers could decide to cut veteran running back Jonathan Stewart in order to clear $3.7 million in salary cap room this offseason. Carolina ranked fourth in rushing in the NFL in 2017, but Stewart didn't really help all that much, running for a career-low 3.4 yards per carry and topping 100 yards just […]

Pirates Ink Michael Saunders To Minors Deal

The Pittsburgh Pirates signed free-agent outfielder Michael Saunders to a minor league deal Wednesday. Saunders was an All-Star in Toronto in 2016, but he fell off big time last year, hitting just .237/.312/.429 with 14 home runs and 38 RBI in 333 at-bats. Add Saunders to the list of players competing for playing time in […]

Michael Conforto May Be Out Longer

New York Mets outfielder Michael Conforto (shoulder) dislocated his shoulder last year and required September surgery, and Dr. A of Inside Injuries said that a normal recovery timetable for his type of surgery would be seven to eight months. From a medical standpoint, the chances of Conforto being ready to return in April seems to be […]

Corey Seager To DH This Weekend

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager (elbow) will serve as the designated hitter in spring games Friday and Saturday. He's currently still progressing through his throwing program, and the Dodgers are playing it cautious with him early in camp. Despite dealing with elbow issues late in 2017, Seager still managed to finish the year hitting […]

Joe Thomas Still Deciding On Future

Cleveland Browns left tackle Joe Thomas is "still working" through his decision on whether he will return for a 12th season in 2018. He has set a date of March 14 (the start of free agency) as the moment when he wants to have made his decision. Thomas has been rehabbing a triceps injury that […]

Titans Agree To Extension With Ryan Succop

The Tennessee Titans agreed to terms with place kicker Ryan Succop on a five-year deal worth $20 million Tuesday, including $7.5 million in guarantees, according to a source informed of the terms of the contract. He will make $8.25 million over the first two years of the deal. Succop ranked fifth in the NFL in […]

Dolphins Place Franchise Tag On Jarvis Landry

The Miami Dolphins placed the franchise tag on impending free-agent wide receiver Jarvis Landry on Tuesday. Despite reports in the last year that Miami was likely to move on from Landry, the team will at least pay him $16 million this season on the non-exclusive tag, meaning he'll be able to negotiate with other teams, […]

Jaguars Decline Options On Mychal Rivera, Arrelious Benn

The Jacksonville Jaguars declined the contract options for tight end Mychal Rivera and wide receiver Arrelious Benn on Tuesday, and they will become free agents in March. Rivera didn't play at all in 2017 and Benn had only one catch for 12 yards in nine games with Jacksonville. Neither are likely to make a fantasy […]

Steelers Expected To Tag Le'Veon Bell Before Deadline

The Pittsburgh Steelers are expected to place the franchise tag on impending free-agent running back Le'Veon Bell before the March 6 deadline. While both sides are much more optimistic that a long-term extension will be worked out this time around, the $14.5 million one-year tag will buy the team time to come to an agreement […]

Elvis Andrus Dealing With Back Spasms

Texas Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus (back) cut his workout short Tuesday due to back spasms. This isn't a major deal so early in camp, but it's something to watch as Andrus is coming off a career year with a .297 average, 20 home runs, 88 RBI, 25 steals and 100 runs in 158 games. His […]

Eagles Promote Mike Groh To Offensive Coordinator

The Philadelphia Eagles promoted Mike Groh to offensive coordinator, according to a source with knowledge of the team's plans. However, play-calling duties will remain with head coach Doug Pederson. Groh has been an NFL assistant since 2013 after spending time in the college ranks before that. He was Virginia's offensive coordinator from 2006 to 2008 […]

Vontae Davis Visiting With 49ers

Free-agent cornerback Vontae Davis is visiting with the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday, according to a source. He has already met with the Bills and Browns. Davis will be entering his 10th season in the NFL and could provide needed veteran leadership to San Fran's secondary. He dealt with injuries in 2017 and wound up […]

Jaguars Picking Up Marcedes Lewis' Option

The Jacksonville Jaguars will pick up tight end Marcedes Lewis' 2018 option. He will return for his 13th season with the Jags after catching 24 passes for 318 yards and five touchdowns in 2017. Lewis is a big body for quarterback Blake Bortles but is more of a blocking tight end in this offense. He […]

Buccaneers Release Doug Martin

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released running back Doug Martin on Tuesday. This move was totally expected, as Martin failed to reach 450 yards for the second straight season after being an All-Pro in 2015. The team will save $6.75 million on the salary cap with the move. As a rookie, Martin rushed for 1,454 yards […]

Jets Could Get Creative For Kirk Cousins

The New York Jets are viewed as the favorites to land Washington Redskins impending free-agent quarterback Kirk Cousins because they are projected to have $73.2 million in salary cap space, but they might get creative in order to give Cousins an offer he can't refuse. With running back Matt Forte and defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson […]

Daniel Nava Held Out Of Workouts

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Daniel Nava (back) was held out of Tuesday's workouts due to lower back discomfort. Nava also dealt with back problems last year, so the team will play it cautious early in camp. The veteran outfielder hit well with the Phillies last year (.301/.393/.421), but he was fortunate with a .357 BABIP. He […]

Ryan McMahon The Front-Runner For First Base Job

Colorado Rockies first baseman Ryan McMahon is the clear front-runner for the first base job this year with outfielder Ian Desmond mainly focusing on left field. However, McMahon hasn't heard anything definitive from manager Bud Black. The 23-year-old was just 3-for-19 in 17 games with Colorado at the end of last year, but he hit […]

Hanley Ramirez To Be No. 3 Hitter

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said first baseman Hanley Ramirez is currently in line to be the No. 3 hitter. Han-Ram had a disappointing season all around in 2017, but shoulder issues might've been the biggest reason for his decline across the board at the plate. Despite hitting .241, Ramirez still slugged 23 home […]

Ryan Braun To Play Left Field And First Base

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said that outfielder Ryan Braun will only play left field and first base this year, and outfielder Christian Yelich will primarily play left field during the season but will see some time in right field this spring. In Milwaukee's crowded outfield, Domingo Santana appears to be the odd man out […]

Jackie Bradley Unlikely To Be Traded

Boston Red Sox outfielder Jackie Bradley is unlikely to be traded after the team signed free-agent outfielder J.D. Martinez on Monday, according to sources. Boston's outfield is likely to consist of Andrew Benintendi in left field, Bradley in center and Mookie Betts in right, with Martinez the primary designated hitter. Bradley is still an elite […]

Dolphins Could Pursue C.J. Anderson

With Denver Broncos running back C.J. Anderson being a candidate to be released in the offseason to save money on the salary cap, it wouldn't be remotely surprising if the Miami Dolphins pursued him, two years after they signed Anderson to an offer sheet, which was matched by Denver. Anderson was upset when the Broncos […]

Dolphins Getting To Know Baker Mayfield

The Miami Dolphins spent some time with Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield at last month's Senior Bowl, and they are planning to have dinner with him right before they evaluate him at Oklahoma's Pro Day on March 14. Mayfield threw for 4,627 yards last year with 43 touchdowns and only six interceptions and is one of […]

Marcus Peters May Not Have Future In KC

Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters may not last long in Kansas City, according to sources. Trade talk surrounding Peters is expected to intensify next week at the scouting combine. With the Chiefs not having much salary cap space this offseason, Peters may be a casualty, although he's set to make under $2 million in […]

Julius Peppers Leaning Toward Returning

Carolina Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers is leaning toward playing another season in 2018, but he doesn't want to commit yet, according to a source close to Peppers. Further complicating matters is the fact that he had shoulder surgery after the season. Despite being 38 years old, Peppers remains effective and tied for the team […]

Tim Lincecum Has Guaranteed Offer

Free-agent starting pitcher Tim Lincecum has a guaranteed offer from a team not named the Giants, according to a source. If the Giants want to bring Lincecum back, they'll have to offer more than a minor league deal, which is unlikely. The Freak is said to be in great shape and was hitting 90 mph […]

Troy Tulowitzki Hits And Takes Grounders

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Troy Tulowitzki (heel) took groundballs and hit without any setbacks Monday in camp, but the team wants to be cautious with him. Manager John Gibbons said he doesn't expect Tulowitzki to play in the first couple of spring games. The injuries just keep coming for Tulo, who was limited to just […]

Allen Robinson Lining Up To Be Tagged

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Allen Robinson (knee) is the only player that the team would consider using the franchise tag on this year after he missed almost all of the 2017 season with a torn ACL and after he struggled in 2016. A one-year, incentive-laden deal is their preference, but if the two sides can't […]

Jets Willing To Go All Out For Kirk Cousins

Sources say that the New York Jets are willing to pay whatever it takes to land Washington Redskins impending free-agent quarterback Kirk Cousins unless the 'Skins tag him for a third time, which is highly unlikely. The Jets will have to convince Cousins that he'll have a chance to win in New York. If they […]
