Trey Palmer, Jalen McMillan To Compete For No. 3 Job

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer had a good rookie season in 2023 considering his draft status and with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in front of him, but he has far from secured the No. 3 spot in an offensive system that is sure to be 11-personnel heavy in his second season. However, […]

Ben Sinnott Could Carve Out A Role In Rookie Season

Washington Commanders rookie tight end Ben Sinnott was taken with the No. 53 overall pick in the third round of this year's draft out of Kansas State, and he will have an opportunity for playing time right away despite the presence of Zach Ertz, John Bates, Cole Turner and Armani Rogers on the roster.

Cowboys To Decline Trey Lance's Fifth-Year Option

Oakland Athletics second baseman Zack Gelof (oblique) is back to baseball activities and took ground balls at second base and played catch on Wednesday.

New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole (elbow) had a "heavy day" of throwing on Tuesday, and manager Aaron Boone said he doesn't know when Cole is scheduled to throw from a mound.

Red Sox Acquire Zack Short From Mets

The Boston Red Sox acquired infielder Zack Short from the New York Mets on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations.

The Boston Red Sox are expected to sign first baseman Dominic Smith after the Tampa Bay Rays released him from his minor-league contract on Wednesday.
