Saints Reunite With Jimmy Graham

The New Orleans Saints announced on Tuesday that they signed five-time Pro Bowl tight end Jimmy Graham to an undisclosed one-year deal.

The Minnesota Twins officially placed outfielder Byron Buxton on the paternity list on Monday and recalled outfielder Trevor Larnach from the minors in a corresponding move.

Angels Discussing Trades For Shohei Ohtani

The Los Angeles Angels have communicated about two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani trade scenarios with other teams in recent days.

Pirates Willing To Listen On David Bednar

The Pittsburgh Pirates are telling teams that they would listen on All-Star closer David Bednar, but the understanding is that he'd be difficult to move since he isn't a free agent until 2027. The Pittsburgh native currently has a career-best 1.15 ERA (1.98 FIP), 0.95 WHIP, a career-high-tying 19 saves, nine walks and 47 strikeouts […]

Kadarius Toney Not Spotted On Monday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney (knee) was not spotted warming up with the team on Monday at training camp.

C.J. Gardner-Johnson Carted Off The Field Monday

Amari Cooper's Injury Isn't Much Of A Concern
