Jordan Mason, Ray-Ray McCloud III Miss Another Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (hamstring) and wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (rib) missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Neither Mason nor McCloud are anywhere near the fantasy map, but both of them could be in danger of missing the team's Week 13 showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles. […]

Calvin Austin III Gets Back To Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday after not practicing at all on Wednesday. Austin should have a pretty good chance at playing this weekend against the Arizona Cardinals if he's able to upgrade even further with a full practice on Friday. The 24-year-old hasn't […]

Blake Grupe Stays Limited Thursday

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe (groin) stayed limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday with a right-groin injury. The Saints signed a kicker to their practice squad earlier this week with Grupe injured, so there's no guarantee yet that he'll be cleared to kick for the Saints in Week 13 against […]

Dontayvion Wicks Limited Again Thursday

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (knee) put in his second straight limited practice session on Thursday. Wicks suffered a concussion and a knee injury in the Week 11 win over the Los Angeles Chargers and thus was unable to play on a short week on Thanksgiving last Thursday in the win over […]

Thomas Szapucki Returns To Giants On Minor-League Deal

The San Francisco Giants re-signed left-hander Thomas Szapucki to a minor-league deal after non-tendering him on Nov. 17. Szapucki had thoracic outlet surgery in May and hasn't pitched in a competitive setting since 2022 due to his shoulder injury. The 27-year-old southpaw appeared in 12 major-league games (one start) in 2021 and 2022 with the […]

Giants Re-Sign Jose Cruz

The San Francisco Giants have re-signed right-hander Jose Cruz to a minor-league deal after non-tendering him on Nov. 17. The 23-year-old Dominican pitcher spent time with High-A Eugene and Double-A Richmond in the Giants' farm system in 2023, combining to go 0-2 with a 4.47 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, five saves, 38 walks and 67 strikeouts […]

Matt McLain Fully Healed

Cincinnati Reds infielder Matt McLain (oblique) said his right-oblique injury is fully healed. "Things are going good. I started to swing, no problems. Lifting, no problems," McLain said. The 24-year-old was having an excellent rookie season in 2023 for the upstart Reds before his season came to an end prematurely at the tail end of […]

Teams Interested In Edward Cabrera, Trevor Rogers

MLB teams have shown interest in Miami Marlins right-hander Edward Cabrera and left-hander Trevor Rogers this offseason, according to sources briefed on the Marlins' conversations. Cabrera missed a month with a right-shoulder impingement in 2023 and spent more than a month at Triple-A. In the big leagues, he posted a 4.24 ERA in 99 2/3 […]

White Sox Likely To Wait To Deal Dylan Cease

Chicago White Sox new general manager Chris Getz is telling teams he will likely wait to move right-hander Dylan Cease until after the top free-agent starting pitchers sign this offseason, according to major-league sources briefed on the discussions. The urgency of certain teams will only increase if they miss out on top free-agent pitching names […]

Kyle Tyler Signs Minors Deal With Marlins

Free-agent right-hander Kyle Tyler signed a minor-league deal with the Miami Marlins on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, according to a source. Tyler has previously pitched for the Los Angeles Angels and San Diego Padres and has a 2.20 ERA in 16 1/3 career big-league innings. He lasted pitched in the majors […]

Austin Adams Signs One-Year Deal With Mets

Free-agent right-hander Austin Adams signed a one-year, major-league deal with the New York Mets on Thursday, according to a source. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Adams' 2023 season was cut short due to a fractured right ankle that he suffered in early August. The 32-year-old reliever wasn't all that good for the […]

Shohei Ohtani Wins Most Outstanding Designated Hitter Award

For the third straight season, two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani was named the Edgar Martinez Outstanding Designated Hitter award. In addition to the DH award, Ohtani was the American League Most Valuable Player in 2023 for the second time in the last three years. The three-time All-Star was more impressive this past season at the plate […]

Hayden Hurst Still Missing, Tommy Tremble Back At Practice

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) missed another day of practice on Thursday, while Tommy Tremble (hip) returned to a limited practice. Tremble was unable to practice on Wednesday. Hurst hasn't practiced since suffering a concussion in Week 10 and looks to be on his way to missing another game this Sunday when the […]

Kayshon Boutte Misses Practice Thursday

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Kayshon Boutte (illness, shoulder) joined fellow rookie Demario Douglas (concussion) on the sidelines at practice on Thursday after he was limited on Wednesday with a shoulder injury. Even though Boutte's absence on Thursday was likely because of illness and not his shoulder, the 21-year-old should be considered questionable to […]

Ezekiel Elliott Limited Again Thursday

New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott (thigh) was limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Elliott could end up with a questionable tag heading into Sunday's contest versus the Los Angeles Chargers, but he seems to be on the right side of questionable for now. It's hard to get […]

Will Levis Upgrades To Full Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle) was able to practice in full on Thursday after beginning the week on Wednesday as a limited participant. Levis is dealing with a minor ankle injury that shouldn't really impact him this weekend in a matchup against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts. The 24-year-old signal-caller from Kentucky opened some […]

Treylon Burks Puts In Full Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (concussion) upgraded to a full practice session on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Head coach Mike Vrabel expressed hope earlier this week that the team would be getting Burks back soon, and it could come as soon as this Sunday to face the Indianapolis Colts. […]

Noah Brown Limited Again Thursday

Houston Texans wide receiver Noah Brown (knee) practiced on a limited basis for the second straight day this week on Thursday. After missing the last two games with a knee injury, Brown could be on track to return for a Week 13 meeting with the visiting Denver Broncos. Rookie Tank Dell (calf) is also somewhat […]

David Montgomery Practices In Full Thursday

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (foot) looks well on his way to playing this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints after putting in a full practice session on Thursday. Montgomery was limited on Wednesday with a foot issue. Rookie first-rounder Jahmyr Gibbs has earned a bigger share of the backfield workload going forward, but […]

Will Dissly Suiting Up Against Cowboys

Seattle Seahawks tight end Will Dissly (hip) came into Thursday night's game against the Dallas Cowboys with a questionable tag, but he's officially active for the Week 13 contest and will play. The Seahawks haven't really involved their tight ends much this year, so Dissly can continue going ignored in fantasy lineups in this one. […]

Dee Eskridge, Dareke Young Inactive For Seahawks

Seattle Seahawks wide receivers Dee Eskridge (ribs) and Dareke Young (abdomen) are both inactive for the Thursday night game against the Dallas Cowboys. Eskridge came into the Week 13 game as questionable but was unable to practice either of the last two days. Young was even more unlikely to suit up with a doubtful tag […]

Kenneth Walker III Officially Inactive In Week 13

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (oblique) is officially inactive for the Thursday night contest against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13. Walker was unable to practice at all this week and was listed as doubtful to play after originally suffering a moderate oblique strain in Week 11. He also missed the Thanksgiving night […]

Jake Browning On The Week 13 Injury Report

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning (wrist) is on the Week 13 injury report with a wrist injury, but he was listed as a full practice participant on Thursday. Browning made his first career start in the Week 12 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers last week and went 19-for-26 for 227 yards, one touchdown and one […]

Dorian Thompson-Robinson Still In Concussion Protocol

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and missed practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Thompson-Robinson took a hard shot in late in the second half of the Week 12 loss to the Denver Broncos and never returned. The fact that he hasn't been able […]

Amari Cooper Back At Practice Thursday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper (ribs) returned to Thursday's practice after sitting out on Wednesday with a rib injury he sustained in the Week 12 loss to the Denver Broncos. Cooper is normally rested on Wednesdays, but it's a good sign that he was able to return to the practice field a day later […]

Wil Lutz Stays Limited Thursday

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz (hip) stayed limited at practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Lutz is dealing with a right-hip injury heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Houston Texans on the road. A full practice on Friday would give Lutz a great chance at serving as the starting […]

Jerry Jeudy, Marvin Mims Jr. Limited Thursday

Denver Broncos wide receivers Jerry Jeudy (groin) and rookie Marvin Mims Jr. (hamstring) were both listed as limited participants in practice on Thursday. Jeudy was a non-participant on Wednesday, but head coach Sean Payton later downplayed the injured and suggested that Jeudy would be fine for Week 13 against the Houston Texans. Mims has been […]

D'Andre Swift A Full Practice Participant

Philadelphia Eagles running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) was able to practice in full on Thursday after he was listed as limited for Wednesday's session with the team. Swift will be available as the Eagles' lead running back for this weekend's clash against the San Francisco 49ers. The 24-year-old has served as Philly's top option in […]

DeVonta Smith Gets Back To Full Practice

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (knee) was able to put in a full practice on Thursday, upgrading from the limited session he had on Wednesday to start the week. Smith will be available on Sunday in the showdown against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. It looks like tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm) […]

Dallas Goedert Trending In The Wrong Direction

Philadelphia Eagles tight ends Dallas Goedert (forearm) and Grant Calcaterra (ankle) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. The Eagles were hoping that Goedert might have a chance to play in Sunday's big clash against the San Francisco 49ers after fracturing his forearm in Week 9. It doesn't look like […]
