The Pittsburgh Steelers already released Chukwuma Okorafor, Mitch Trubisky and Pressley Harvin III, clearing nearly $13 million in 2024 salary cap space, and wide receiver Allen Robinson II is expected to be next, according to The Athletic's Mark Kaboly. The Steelers acquired Robinson in a trade from the Rams last year under the notion that […]

Eagles Might Need Two New Cornerbacks

The Philadelphia Eagles defense allowed the fifth-most explosive plays last year due to the instability of their secondary. Cornerback James Bradberry was burned frequently in critical man-to-man situations. Even if the 30-year-old is able to rebound in 2024, the Eagles need to consider the age of No. 1 corner Darius Slay (32 years old), who […]

Jets Need Offensive-Line Help

The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt writes that the New York Jets' biggest offseason need in 2024 is their offensive line, and it's been the case for most of the last decade (if not longer). It should help that the Jets have veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers, although he's 40 years old and coming off an Achilles tear. […]

Shohei Ohtani's Elbow Rehab Is Essentially Complete

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (elbow) said his right-elbow rehab as a hitter is essentially complete.

Josh Jacobs Doesn't Get Franchise-Tagged

As expected, the Las Vegas Raiders didn't use the franchise tag on running back Josh Jacobs by the deadline on Tuesday. It's not surprising at all that the Raiders elected not to use the franchise tag on Jacobs after he regressed in 2023, as the tag would have cost them $14.1 million for the 2024 […]

Wade Miley Throws Bullpen Session

Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that left-hander Wade Miley (shoulder) threw a bullpen session in camp on Tuesday morning. "I wouldn't count him out for the first week," Murphy said.

Anthony Rendon Dealing With Groin Discomfort

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (groin) has been dealing with some groin discomfort since Sunday, which is why he hasn't played in the Cactus League in a couple of days.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Walker Buehler (elbow), who is recovering from his second Tommy John surgery, won't be in the Opening Day starting rotation. However, manager Dave Roberts said that the hope is to give him one Cactus League start later this month before the regular season kicks off. The 29-year-old Buehler had Tommy John […]

Jarren Duran To Play On Thursday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran (foot), who was removed from Tuesday's Grapefruit League game early against the Tampa Bay Rays due to an apparent foot injury, is fine and will be back in the lineup on Thursday. "He's OK. His ankle is a little bit tight but that's it. He'll play on Thursday," manager […]

Corey Seager Could Play In Cactus League Games

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (hernia), who had sports-hernia surgery in January, could get some Cactus League at-bats before the end of spring training. "I'm hopeful," manager Bruce Bochy said. "To be honest, I don't know for sure. He caught the flu -- that probably slowed things down just a hair. But we'll see where […]

Jets Could Be Tempted By Brock Bowers

The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt thinks that the New York Jets could be tempted to take Georgia tight end Brock Bowers with the No. 10 overall pick in the first round of this year's NFL draft, even if they remain high on Jeremy Ruckert. The Jets would probably only take a chance on Bowers in the […]

Drake Maye Compared To Prominent AFC Quarterbacks

North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye, who is one of the top QBs available in this year's draft, has flashed exceptional creativity and aggressiveness as a downfield passer while also exhibiting the ability to create outside of structure. But his production took a hit in 2023 while his footwork and decision-making got sloppy as the season […]

Patriots Have "Real" Interest In Jacoby Brissett

The New England Patriots have "real" interest in Washington Commanders impending free-agent quarterback Jacoby Brissett. The Patriots are expected to have competition for him if they sign him, but offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt loved coaching Brissett with the Cleveland Browns in 2022, and the Patriots view the veteran signal-caller as a great locker-room guy […]

Jarrett Stidham Could Get First Shot At Starting Gig

The Denver Broncos are going to evaluate all of the top quarterback prospects in this year's draft class, but if they do not trade up (they currently hold the 12th overall pick) within the first round of April's draft to take a QB, Jarrett Stidham would get the first shot to be their starter under […]

Broderick Jones Will Be At Left Tackle In 2024

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive tackle Broderick Jones made a spot start at left tackle in Week 5 of his rookie season in 2023 before claiming the full-time right tackle job in Week 9.

Kirk Cousins Seriously Considering The Falcons

According to very credible sources, Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins (Achilles) is seriously considering moving his family to Atlanta so that he can play for the Falcons. Unless Cousins re-signs with the Vikings by next Wednesday, March 13, he'll become an unrestricted free agent. The Falcons have always been the top alternative to the Vikings […]

Colts Using Franchise Tag On Michael Pittman Jr.

The Indianapolis Colts are using their franchise tag on wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. on Tuesday, according to sources.

Jaguars Release Darious Williams

The Jacksonville Jaguars released cornerback Darious Williams on Tuesday, according to a source. The move to release Williams creates $11.5 million in salary cap space this year as the team works through other in-house negotiations in the offseason. Cutting the 30-year-old leaves a mere $500,000 in dead-cap space for 2024. Williams didn't play terribly last […]

Seahawks Releasing Will Dissly

The Seattle Seahawks are releasing tight end Will Dissly on Tuesday, according to a source. The move saves the Seahawks $7 million in cash on the 2024 salary cap. The 27-year-old has 13 career touchdowns in his six seasons in Seattle, but he wasn't much of a fantasy weapon while splitting snaps with Noah Fan […]

Seahawks Releasing Jamal Adams, Quandre Diggs

The Seattle Seahawks are releasing three-time Pro Bowl safeties Jamal Adams (knee) and Quandre Diggs on Tuesday, according to sources.

Adams, 28, who played […]

Jets To Release C.J. Uzomah

The New York Jets are planning to release tight end C.J. Uzomah (knee), according to sources. The move was fully expected and will save the Jets $5 million-plus on the 2024 salary cap.

Jaguars To Use Franchise Tag On Josh Allen

The Jacksonville Jaguars are expected to place the franchise tag on pass-rusher Josh Allen on Tuesday by the deadline, according to a source.

Bears Using Franchise Tag On Jaylon Johnson

The Chicago Bears are placing their franchise tag on star cornerback Jaylon Johnson on Tuesday.
