Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (undisclosed) got some team snaps on Tuesday at training camp after he was held out on Monday with some minor tightness, according to head coach Pete Carroll.

Tank Bigsby Continues To Receive Praise

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Tank Bigsby has done nothing but impress the coaching staff in training camp this summer.

Travis Etienne Jr. rushed for over […]

Matt Chapman Retreats To The Bench

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Matt Chapman will start Tuesday's contest against the Cleveland Guardians on the bench.

New York Mets rookie catcher Francisco Alvarez is taking the day off on Tuesday against the visiting Chicago Cubs.

Cincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson is taking the day off on Tuesday against the visiting Miami Marlins.

Max Kepler Out Of Tuesday's Lineup

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (foot) is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers.
