49ers Have Interest In Re-Signing Chase Young

Even though edge rusher Chase Young was a bit of a disappointment after the San Francisco 49ers acquired him in a deadline deal with the Washington Commanders last year, the 49ers have at least some interest in re-signing him.

James Paxton Tweaks His Cutter

With a suggestion from the team, Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander James Paxton has modified his cutter this offseason to more of a bullet slider, which is a harder, tighter slider than the traditional slower sweeper.

Toronto Blue Jays infielder Cavan Biggio (shoulder) is "still going in the right direction," according to manager John Schneider.

Emmanuel Ogbah Could Be Cut

The Athletic's Jim Ayello speculates that Miami Dolphins defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah could be a salary cap casualty this offseason.

Christian Wilkins Unlikely To Be Franchise-Tagged

All options for impending free-agent defensive tackle Christian Wilkins are on the table for the Miami Dolphins, but several league sources say that he's unlikely to receive the franchise tag.
