Zay Jones' Future With Team Not Impacted By Incident

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane said wide receiver Zay Jones' future with the team won't be impacted by a bizarre incident recently in which he was seen naked on video with his brother restraining him. Jones was also injured during the incident, but it's unclear how serious his leg injury is or if it […]

Ichiro Suzuki Expected To Play Tuesday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki (calf) is expected to play seven innings on Tuesday, and it looks like he'll be the last decision for the Mariners final Opening Day roster. Suzuki will travel to Seattle with the team after camp. Suzuki could play a lot to begin the season with Mitch Haniger also injured, but […]

Eric Sogard Scratched From Lineup

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Eric Sogard (neck) was scratched from the team's final spring lineup on Tuesday. He was returning from a family funeral, but Sogard was also dealing with a neck issue over the weekend. It's likely nothing serious, but it's worth watching with Opening Day on Thursday. Sogard hits for very little power […]

Caleb Smith To Start Game 2 For Marlins

Miami Marlins pitcher Caleb Smith will start the second game of the season on Friday at home against the Cubs. Odrisamer Despaigne will start the third game on Saturday. Smith had a 7.71 ERA and 1.66 WHIP in nine outings (two starts) in his first big league action with the Yankees last year, but posted […]

Mariners Adding Jayson Werth On Minor League Deal

The Seattle Mariners are signing free-agent outfielder Jayson Werth to a minor league deal on Tuesday. He will stay in extended spring training a while to get in shape before joining Triple-A Tacoma. The grizzled veteran saw very little interest on the open market over the winter after being injured for much of last season […]

Blair Walsh Works Out For Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins held a workout for free-agent place kicker Blair Walsh on Monday, according to a source. Walsh spent just one year in Seattle and hit 21 of his 29 field goal tries (72.4 percent), while missing his only kick from 50-plus yards. He's an 82.4 percent kicker in his six years in the […]

Raiders Want To Re-Sign NaVorro Bowman

Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said that the team wants to re-sign linebacker NaVorro Bowman. Bowman was definitely effective in 10 games for the Raiders last season, compiling 89 tackles, 1.5 sacks, one fumble recovery and one interception. Despite his off-field stumbles in his career, Bowman would surely strengthen Oakland's interior defense in 2018 […]

Cameron Meredith Visited With Saints

Chicago Bears restricted free-agent wide receiver Cameron Meredith visited with the New Orleans Saints over the weekend, according to an NFL source. He's also visited with the Colts and Ravens already, but it's unclear if any of those teams will sign him to an offer sheet. It all depends on where Meredith is in his […]

Rams Interested In Trading For Odell Beckham Jr.

The Los Angeles Rams have talked to the New York Giants about the possibility of trading for wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., according to multiple NFL sources. While it might be unlikely for Beckham to be traded this week, the team's asking price will start with a first-round pick plus. Beckham's 2017 season was lost […]

Chris Archer Will Be Ready For Opening Day

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer (forearm) looked good during a 30-pitch bullpen session Monday, and manager Kevin Cash has no concerns about his ace being ready for Opening Day on Thursday. Archer remains the clear best pitcher in Tampa and has low-end fantasy ace potential. It's certainly a tough assignment on opening day […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Trade Unlikely

Updating a previous report, the New York Giants are more likely to reach an extension with wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. than trade him. “I’d be very surprised,” a source told Newsday regarding a trade of Beckham this week. The main objective of the Giants is to work with Beckham and come to an agreement […]

Ndamukong Suh Won't Visit With Raiders

Free-agent defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh's visit with the Oakland Raiders is now off, according to sources. He is at home and is unlikely to make a decision on Wednesday. Suh is known to be interested in the Rams, but he's also considering the Saints and Titans. As was expected, there has been plenty of interest […]

Dolphins Hosting Baker Mayfield For Private Workout

The Miami Dolphins are conducting a private workout with University of Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield on Wednesday, according to a source. It's no secret that the Dolphins are considering a quarterback with their first-round pick despite having Ryan Tannehill entrenched as the 2018 starter. The problem is the Dolphins have the 11th overall pick, and […]

Willie Snead Visiting With Ravens

New Orleans Saints restricted free-agent wide receiver Willie Snead is visiting with the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday, according to a source. Baltimore is seriously trying to upgrade their receiving corps after they struggled big time in 2017. They have already added Michael Crabtree and John Brown, so Snead would be battling for playing time with […]

Marshawn Lynch Restructures Contract

Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch restructured his contract last Saturday before his $1 million roster bonus was due. His base salary in 2018 is now $5.5 million -- $500,000 less than before -- but he's guaranteed $4.5 million of it and can earn up to $9.25 million with incentives. Beast Mode was one of […]

JT Riddle Scratched Wednesday

Miami Marlins shortstop JT Riddle (shoulder) was scratched from the Grapefruit League lineup on Wednesday with some soreness in his surgically repaired shoulder. It doesn't seem to be anything serious, but Riddle is no lock to be ready for Opening Day, as he has yet to play in a major league spring game after having […]

Yuli Gurriel Worked Out Tuesday

Houston Astros first baseman Yuli Gurriel (hand) fielded grounders, ran the bases and did light hitting on the field on Tuesday. It's good progress for the Cuban, but he's still expected to be sidelined until around mid-April. He could come slightly cheaper in drafts as a result, and he showed fine contact and hard-hit rates […]

Bills Visit With Karlos Dansby

The Buffalo Bills hosted free-agent linebacker Karlos Dansby on a visit, according to a source. Dansby will be entering his 15th season in 2018, but he's recorded at least 100 tackles in seven of his last 10 seasons and had 95 tackles, one sack, one fumble recovery and one interception in 2017, showing that he […]

Ndamukong Suh Intrigued By Rams

Free-agent defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said he is intrigued by the Los Angeles Rams and the potential for playing alongside Aaron Donald and Michael Brockers. Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips' 3-4 scheme has similar gap responsibilities as a 4-3 defense. Suh is the best run-stopping defensive lineman on the open market and would make the Rams […]

Ndamukong Suh Scheduled To Visit Raiders

Free-agent defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is scheduled to visit the Oakland Raiders on Wednesday, according to a source. Suh is easily the best defensive lineman left on the market, and he is an elite run stopper that routinely clogs up running lanes with his big body. Pairing with Khalil Mack in Oakland would make the […]

Richard Sherman Should Be Ready For Training Camp

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman (Achilles) said he'll be back on the football field by May or June. That means Sherman should be totally fine for training camp this summer, unless he suffers a setback. Despite injuries and declining age, Sherman can still be one of the best cover cornerbacks in the NFL when […]

Matthew Slater Returns To Patriots

The New England Patriots re-signed wide receiver Matthew Slater to a two-year deal on Tuesday, according to a source. Slater is a special teams ace and doesn't have a single catch since 2011. He can be ignored in all fantasy leagues.

Blaine Gabbert Visits With Titans

Free-agent quarterback Blaine Gabbert visited with the Tennessee Titans, according to a source. Gabbert played in five games for the Cardinals in 2017, completing 55.6 percent of his 171 attempts for 1,086 yards, six touchdowns and six interceptions. The former first-round pick isn't the worst backup option in the league. He'd be holding the clipboard […]

Saints, Other Teams Interested In Allen Hurns

Free-agent wide receiver Allen Hurns is receiving plenty of interest on the open market after being released by the Jaguars on Tuesday. The New Orleans Saints are among a long list of teams to express interest in him. "Right now, the teams have reached out, it's probably like 10 teams: the Bears, the Bills, Saints, […]

Allen Hurns To Visit With Jets

Free-agent wide receiver Allen Hurns has a visit with the New York Jets this week, according to a source. Hurns had a breakout in 2015 with 1,031 yards and 10 touchdowns, but he fell back to earth the last two years, mainly due to injuries. Hurns would be an upgrade for the Jets offense behind […]

Vikings Re-Signing Kai Forbath

The Minnesota Vikings are re-signing place kicker Kai Forbath to an undisclosed deal Tuesday, according to a source. He made a career-high 32 of his 38 field goal attempts (84.2 percent) for the Vikings last year, including a career-high six of nine from 50-plus yards. Forbath is an 85.9 percent kicker in his seven years […]

Jaguars Release Marcedes Lewis

The Jacksonville Jaguars released tight end Marcedes Lewis on Tuesday, according to a source. Lewis was typically a fantasy afterthought in Jacksonville. He had 24 receptions for 318 yards and five scores last season, but three of those touchdowns came in one game. Lewis is unlikely to latch on with a team that makes him […]

Dan Straily To Be Shut Down 4-5 Days

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Dan Straily (forearm) is dealing with tightness in his right forearm and will not throw for four to five days. The injury isn't believed to be serious, but it puts his availability for the first series of the regular season in jeopardy. Straily was the ace of the staff in 2017, […]

Eric Decker To Visit With Raiders

Updating an ongoing story, free-agent wide receiver Eric Decker will visit with the Oakland Raiders on Tuesday, according to sources. It was initially reported that Decker was flying to visit the Saints, but that turned out to be incorrect. Decker was a disappointment with the Titans in 2017 and had a career-low 10.4 yards per […]

Redskins Expected To Draft Running Back Early

The Washington Redskins are expected to look at drafting a running back in the early rounds. "That's a good possibility, yes," head coach Jay Gruden said. Unless they trade up in the first round, Washington is unlikely to land Penn State running back Saquon Barkley, but the team could also look to add a back […]
