Shane McClanahan Unlikely To Pitch Again This Year

Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Shane McClanahan (forearm) is unlikely to pitch again this year.

Max Kepler Injures Foot

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (foot) injured his right foot in Monday's game against the Detroit Tigers while being hit by a pitch, but he was moving around pretty well and seemed OK after the contest.

New York Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodon (hamstring) landed on the injured list on Monday for the second time this year with a "low-grade" left hamstring strain, according to manager Aaron Boone.

San Francisco Giants left-hander Scott Alexander is set to serve as the team's opener on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Angels, with lefty Alex Wood likely coming in behind Alexander as the bulk reliever.

Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) received an excused absence from training camp on Tuesday, and he hasn't been with the team since at least Monday.

K.J. Osborn Set To Play Pivotal Role

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborn, who is listed as the No. 2 receiver on the team's first unofficial depth chart at training camp, is the team's F receiver and is set to play a pivotal role in 2023. Osborn has a wide-ranging understanding of each receiver spot, so he would be able to fill […]

Jordan Addison Listed As Backup On Depth Chart

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison is listed as a backup on the team's first unofficial depth chart of training camp, behind both Justin Jefferson and K.J. Osborn. There's a lot to like about Addison long term, but fantasy managers may want to temper their expectations for him in his rookie season. Osborn is […]

Kyle Philips Listed As Top Punt Returner

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kyle Philips is listed at the top of the team's unofficial depth chart at punt returner, ahead of Mason Kinsey. Meanwhile, Philips is listed third at one of the receiver spots behind DeAndre Hopkins and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.

Tyler Lockett Dealing With Minor Tightness

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (undisclosed) mostly worked off to the side at training camp practice on Monday, and head coach Pete Carroll said Lockett is dealing with some minor tightness.

Jakeem Grant Sr. Returns To Full-Team Drills

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (Achilles) returned to full-team drills at training camp for the first time on Monday.

When he's […]

Chicago Bears running back D'Onta Foreman is listed as the No. 2 RB behind Khalil Herbert on the team's first unofficial depth chart of training camp.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) wasn't on the practice field at training camp on Tuesday because he's getting treatment for the same ankle injury that he dealt with last season.

Parris Campbell Poised For Big Role As Slot Receiver

If he can stay healthy, New York Giants wide receiver Parris Campbell seems poised to earn plenty of snaps and targets as the team's starting slot receiver this year, according to The Athletic's Charlotte Carroll. Former slot receiver Richie James had a share of the team lead with 57 catches in 2022. Campbell, a former […]

Jake Ferguson Is Dallas' Clear No. 1 Tight End

Dallas Cowboys rookie second-round tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) hasn't been practicing at training camp because of plantar fasciitis. That has allowed Jake Ferguson to be the clear No. 1 tight end and the favorite to get the majority of targets that had gone to Dalton Schultz over the last three seasons in Dallas. Schultz […]

Dallas Goedert's Breakout Could Be Coming

The Athletic's Bo Wulf writes that of the Philadelphia Eagles' big three, tight end Dallas Goedert is probably the most likely to surpass his number's from last year (55 catches and 702 yards in 12 games). If Goedert stays relatively healthy in 2023, Wulf thinks he's a good bet to finish as a top-three fantasy […]

Marcus Mariota Has Struggled With Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Marcus Mariota isn't going anywhere as the backup to Jalen Hurts, but he has struggled mightily so far in training camp. Sloppy interceptions and tuck-and-running have been commonplace this summer, along with wayward incompletions. Nick Foles looked terrible during the summer of 2017, but the Eagles probably want to see more from […]

Brandin Cooks Looking Like A Solid Addition

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks, who was acquired from the Houston Texans this offseason, hasn't taken much time to get on the same page with quarterback Dak Prescott during training camp. Cooks has also been the second-most productive wideout at camp behind CeeDee Lamb. The two pass-catchers are expected to line up often on […]

Eagles Focused On Getting D'Andre Swift The Ball In Space

Getting the ball to running back D'Andre Swift in space has been an early focal point in training camp this summer for the Philadelphia Eagles offense. The Athletic's Bo Wulf writes that Swift brings a needed element to an already high-powered offense in 2023. Despite their success in 2022, the Eagles mostly ignored RBs as […]

Jalin Hyatt Impressing At Training Camp

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Jalin Hyatt's speed has been impressive at training camp this summer. He's also continuing to develop his relationship and chemistry with quarterback Daniel Jones, but he's already had some deep receptions that have blown up on the team's social media. Hyatt doesn't lack for confidence and has impressed with […]

Jalen Hurts Still Getting Better?

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, fresh off a big, new contract, has been more consistent than ever over the first week-plus of training camp, according to The Athletic's Bo Wulf. Throws that would have seemed noteworthy last summer now seem commonplace, and Hurts remains the biggest reason for the team's optimism coming off a Super […]

Kyle Trask Has Closed The Gap In QB Competition

At mandatory minicamp seven weeks ago, it looked like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers starting quarterback job was Baker Mayfield's to lose by a wide margin. However, Kyle Trask has come to training camp considerably improved. He's much more decisive with the ball, is making quick decisions and big plays each day and is closing the […]
