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.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are calling up right-handers Colin Selby and Thomas Hatch from the minors on Tuesday, according to sources. Selby will be making his major-league debut when he gets into a game. The 25-year-old earned the call-up by posting a 3.86 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, six saves, 22 walks and 41 strikeouts in 30 1/3 […]

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. The injury doesn't sound very serious, so Lockett should be back at practice sooner than later. Still, don't expect the 30-year-old veteran to […]

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. Grant isn't guaranteed anything heading into the 2023 regular season, but the Browns signed him 17 months ago expecting him to revive their return game and at least help occasionally on offense. 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.

Jonathan Taylor Getting Treatment For Ankle Injury

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. Head coach Shane Steichen said he hopes to see Taylor at training camp eventually. The 24-year-old remains on the Physically Unable to Perform […]

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 […]

Roschon Johnson Might Have Most Potential As Three-Down Back

Chicago Bears running backs Khalil Herbert and D'Onta Foreman have more experience, but ESPN's Courtney Cronin suggests rookie Roschon Johnson might have the most potential as a three-down back. Herbert and Foreman have split first-team repetitions during training camp, and offensive coordinator Luke Getsy has experimented with using both backs as pass-catchers, a role neither […]

Joshua Palmer, Quentin Johnston Could See Ample Playing Time

Los Angeles Chargers third-year wide receiver Joshua Palmer and rookie first-rounder Quentin Johnston are competing for the No. 3 job behind Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, but both Palmer and Johnston could see ample playing time because of their varying skill sets. "We've certainly got four guys that are all starter guys in this league, […]

Malik Willis Has Shown Improvement

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis is locked in a battle with rookie Will Levis for the backup QB job this summer, but Willis has shown great improvement from last year and has drawn praise from the coaching staff. It's clear he's more comfortable in Year 2, which he attributes to "speaking the same language" as […]

Patriots Host Trey Flowers For A Workout Monday

The New England Patriots hosted free-agent veteran defensive end Trey Flowers for a workout at training camp on Monday. Flowers only saw action in four games (zero starts) with the Miami Dolphins last year because of a foot injury, ultimately finishing with just four total tackles. The 29-year-old was originally a fourth-round selection by the […]

Jets Waive Chris Streveler

The New York Jets waived quarterback Chris Streveler (thumb) on Monday after he suffered a right-thumb injury during training camp. There's a chance that Streveler will revert to the Jets roster if he isn't claimed by another team off waivers. If he remains with the Jets, Streveler will be buried on the QB depth chart […]

BJ Ojulari Activated From PUP List

Arizona Cardinals rookie second-round linebacker BJ Ojulari (knee), who had an offseason cleanup surgery on his knee, was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list at training camp on Monday.

Calais Campbell Comes Off PUP List

Atlanta Falcons veteran defensive lineman Calais Campbell (undisclosed) passed a physical on Monday and was removed from the Physically Unable to Perform list at training camp.

Packers Activate Rashan Gary From PUP List

The Green Bay Packers activated pass-rusher Rashan Gary (knee) from the Physically Unable to Perform list at training camp on Monday, according to a source.

Isiah Pacheco Expected To Be Ready For Week 1

The Kansas City Chiefs expect running back Isiah Pacheco (hand, shoulder) to be ready to go for the regular season opener against the Detroit Lions, according to general manager Brett Veach.
