Jaguars Sign E.J. Perry To Practice Squad

With Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the league's concussion protocol this week, the team signed free-agent quarterback E.J. Perry to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to his agent. The Jaguars have only C.J. Beathard backing Lawrence up at the position, so Perry will give the Jags a little bit more insurance if Lawrence […]

Colts Sign Tyler Goodson To Active Roster

The Indianapolis Colts signed running back Tyler Goodson from their practice squad to the active 53-man roster on Tuesday. The team also added defensive end Zach McCloud and wide receivers Jaydon Mickens and Juwann Winfree to their practice squad while letting offensive guard Lewis Kidd go from the practice squad. The Colts RB depth chart […]

Melvin Gordon III Added To Active Roster

The Baltimore Ravens signed running back Melvin Gordon III from their practice squad to the active 53-man roster on Tuesday and placed rookie running back Keaton Mitchell (knee) on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move.

Lions Waive Riley Patterson, Activate Hendon Hooker

The Detroit Lions waived kicker Riley Patterson on Tuesday and activated rookie quarterback Hendon Hooker (knee) from the Non-Football Injury list in a corresponding move. The writing was on the wall for Patterson when Michael Badgley was active over him in Saturday's win over the Denver Broncos. The 24-year-old wasn't bad in 13 games for […]

Dalton Kincaid Still Managing Shoulder Injury

Buffalo Bills rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid (shoulder) and running back Ty Johnson (shoulder) were both limited in the team's walkthrough practice on Tuesday. Kincaid played a season-low 49 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 15 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, while Dawson Knox played 62 percent of the snaps in his second […]

Ja'Marr Chase Likely To Miss At "Least One Week"

The Cincinnati Bengals are expected to proceed cautiously with star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder), and sources say that Chase is likely to miss at "least one week," putting his status for Saturday's Week 16 contest against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers and potentially the Week 17 game against the Kansas City Chiefs in jeopardy. Chase […]

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (ankle) is expected to return from his ankle injury to play in Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday night, according to a source. Olave was held out of the Week 15 win over the New York Giants but was listed as limited during the team's […]

Chase Brown Dealing With Chest Injury

Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Chase Brown (sternum) is on the Week 16 injury report after being listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week on Tuesday. It's an injury that shouldn't keep Brown from playing in Week 16 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, but it's something worth watching. The 23-year-old fifth-round […]

Pat Freiermuth Limited On Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant at Tuesday's practice session. Freiermuth is dealing with a knee injury as the team prepares for a Saturday matchup against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals, but it's an injury that doesn't appear to be serious enough to keep him sidelined in Week […]

Kenny Pickett Able To Practice On Limited Basis

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (ankle) put in a limited practice on Tuesday and went through drills as the fourth QB, following Mason Rudolph, Mitch Trubisky and Trace McSorley. Pickett has missed the last two games after suffering a right high-ankle sprain in Week 13 that required tightrope surgery. The Steelers are planning to start […]

Texans Work Out Tim Boyle On Tuesday

The Houston Texans worked out former New York Jets quarterback Tim Boyle on Tuesday after they attempted to claim quarterback Nathan Rourke on Monday. Rookie first-round QB C.J. Stroud (concussion) missed the first game of his career in the Week 15 overtime win over the Tennessee Titans. The Texans are merely looking for added QB […]

Jarvis Landry Works Out For Colts

Free-agent wide receiver Jarvis Landry worked out for the Indianapolis Colts on Tuesday. The five-time Pro Bowler has not played with anyone in 2023 after two straight down seasons in 2021 and 2022 with the Cleveland Browns and New Orleans Saints, respectively, that were marred by injuries. The 31-year-old slot receiver caught just 25 passes […]

Najee Harris Picks Up DNP To Start The Week

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) was listed as a non-participant in the team's first practice of the week on Tuesday. It's most likely that the Steelers are just giving Harris a maintenance day on Tuesday after he played through his knee injury the last two weeks. As long as he returns to the […]

Kendre Miller Shows Signs Of Activity

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller (ankle) practiced on a limited basis on Tuesday for the first time since spraining his ankle in Week 9. Keep in mind, it was an estimated status at the team's walkthrough practice, but it nevertheless is progress for the 21-year-old third-rounder after it was looking like he […]

Chris Olave Back At Practice Tuesday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Tuesday, which is notable because he missed all of practice last week and didn't play in the Week 15 win over the New York Giants. He was also listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report. With Olave […]

Joey Bosa Works Off To The Side Tuesday

Los Angeles Chargers pass-rusher Joey Bosa (foot), who has missed the last four games while on Injured Reserve due to a foot sprain, was at practice on Tuesday working off to the side with a trainer in shorts and a T-shirt.

Keenan Allen Listed As DNP Tuesday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) was listed as a non-participant at the team's practice on Tuesday.

The 31-year-old was ruled out of last Thursday's beatdown […]

Aaron Rodgers Not Ready To Come Off Injured Reserve

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) acknowledged on the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday that he's not 100 percent and that he'd be pushing to play if he were 100 percent, but he's just not there yet. Rodgers realistically needs a few more weeks, but the Jets' deadline to activate him from Injured Reserve […]

Giants Claim Devin Sweet Off Waivers From A's

The San Francisco Giants claimed right-hander Devin Sweet off waivers from the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday. Sweet will operate as organizational relief for the Giants and remain in the Pacific Northwest after previously spending time with the A's and Seattle Mariners. The 27-year-old made his big-league debut this past season but appeared in only seven […]

Giants Acquire T.J. Hopkins From Reds

The San Francisco Giants acquired outfielder T.J. Hopkins from the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations.

Yankees Claim Jeter Downs Off Waivers From Nationals

The New York Yankees claimed infielder Jeter Downs off waivers from the Washington Nationals on Tuesday. Downs will now join the Yankees organization after the Nationals designated him for assignment last week.

Yuki Matsui Close To Signing With Padres

Free-agent left-handed reliever Yuki Matsui is close to signing a deal with the San Diego Padres on Tuesday, according to a source. The 28-year-old Japanese hurler became available to MLB clubs this offseason when he exercised his international free-agent rights. Matsui has been a standout closer for the Rakuten Eagles of Nippon Professional Baseball for […]

Yoshinobu Yamamoto Expected To Sign Before New Year

Japanese free-agent right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto is expected to sign with a team before the new year and perhaps as early as this week. Yamamoto is arguably the greatest pitcher ever in Nippon Professional Baseball -- he's won three straight MVP awards and three straight Sawamura awards, Japan's equivalent of the Cy Young -- despite standing […]

Rams Designate Ronnie Rivers To Return From Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Rams designated running back Ronnie Rivers (knee) to return from Injured Reserve on Tuesday, opening his 21-day window for the team to officially activate him from IR. Rivers will return to practice this week after spraining the PCL in his knee way back in Week 6. The 24-year-old is probably unlikely to […]

Ja'Marr Chase Won't Practice Tuesday, Day-To-Day

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said the team is taking it day to day with wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) and he won't practice on Tuesday. "We'll see as the week goes," Taylor said.

Bears Receivers Backing Justin Fields

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields got the support from teammates after the team's 20-17 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 15 on Sunday, which dropped them to 5-9 with a 3% chance to make the playoffs. Fields went 19-for-40 for 166 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions (both on Hail Mary attempts). "Justin is […]

Jets Say Aaron Rodgers Wants To Play

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said on Monday that quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) wants to play again this season, but Saleh adamantly refused to comment on whether Rodgers will actually see the field again this year with the Jets officially eliminated from postseason contention. It remains unlikely that the four-time MVP will play […]

Eagles Hand Defensive Play-Calling Duties To Matt Patricia

The Philadelphia Eagles gave defensive play-calling duties to senior assistant Matt Patricia over defensive coordinator Sean Desai in their 20-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. Head coach Nick Sirianni said after the game that Patricia now has final say over the defense. Players were notified of the change early last week and […]

Geno Smith To Start In Week 16 If He's Healthy

Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Drew Lock led the team to a 20-17 upset win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night, but head coach Pete Carroll confirmed that Geno Smith (groin) will start on Sunday in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans as long as he's healthy.
