Angels Owner Wants To Keep Shohei Ohtani

Los Angeles Angels owner Arte Moreno said that he wants to keep two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani, who will be eligible for free agency after the 2023 season. It's one of the sport's biggest upcoming storylines and should result in a record-breaking contract by likely $100 million or more. "I'd like to keep Ohtani," Moreno said. […]

Aaron Ashby To Be Delayed Due To Shoulder Fatigue

Milwaukee Brewers general manager Matt Arnold said that left-hander Aaron Ashby (shoulder) will be behind in spring training with what the team is calling shoulder fatigue. Ashby spent three weeks on the injured last year with shoulder inflammation, so the Brewers will play it safe with him this spring. It's not exactly what you want […]

Kaleb McGary Expected To Return To Falcons

ESPN's Field Yates thinks the Atlanta Falcons will re-sign impending free-agent offensive tackle Kaleb McGary this offseason. McGary's breakout season in 2022 in his fourth NFL campaign should net him a big payday. Atlanta's quarterback situation is a big question mark, but they'll also need to ensure that whoever is under center has a dependable […]

Cardinals Could Cut Robbie Anderson

Football Outsiders' Aaron Schatz predicts that the Arizona Cardinals will cut wide receiver Robbie Anderson this offseason after he had only seven catches in 10 games for the team in 2022 after they acquired him from the Carolina Panthers. Cutting Anderson would trim $12 million from the team's salary cap in 2023 with no dead […]

Cardinals Expected To Re-Sign Byron Murphy Jr.

ESPN's Field Yates is expecting the Arizona Cardinals to re-sign impending free-agent cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. this offseason. Murphy is a homegrown talent getting set to enter the prime of his career at a premium position. He won't come cheap due to his ability, but the Cardinals have little reason to move on from him, […]

Zach Allen Should Be A Priority For Arizona

ESPN's Josh Weinfuss thinks re-signing defensive end Zach Allen this offseason needs to be a big priority for the Arizona Cardinals. Allen isn't a big-name defender, but he had a big impact in 2022 with 5.5 sacks, 47 tackles and 16 pass breakups. J.J. Watt is now retired, so the Cardinals can ill-afford to lose […]

Elandon Roberts Expected To Re-Sign With Dolphins

ESPN's Field Yates believes the Miami Dolphins will re-sign impending free-agent linebacker Elandon Roberts this offseason. The Dolphins have a lot of work to do to improve their defense, and Roberts should be a priority to retain. The 28-year-old was a team captain and is a physical enforcer and smart blitzer. He's certainly due a […]

Vikings Not Expected To Re-Sign Dalvin Tomlinson

ESPN's Field Yates isn't expecting the Minnesota Vikings to re-sign impending free-agent defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson this offseason. Tomlinson has been solid for Minnesota and should command a nice salary on the open market as a gifted pass-rusher and big-bodied run-stopper. But the Vikings will be more motivated to pay wide receiver Justin Jefferson to […]

Marcus Peters Could Be On The Move This Offseason

ESPN's Field Yates doesn't expect the Baltimore Ravens to re-sign veteran cornerback Marcus Peters this offseason. The presumed franchise tag for quarterback Lamar Jackson will take up a huge chunk of the team's salary cap space in 2023, and Peters could be looking for one final big contract at age 30. Peters remained productive in […]

Lavonte David Expected To Re-Sign With Buccaneers

ESPN's Field Yates expects the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to re-sign impending free-agent linebacker Lavonte David this offseason. If the Buccaneers commit to a youth movement and a rebuild, perhaps David isn't retained. However, Yates firmly believes that he carries immense value for the franchise, regardless of where they are in their trajectory. The 33-year-old veteran […]

Jaguars Expected To Re-Sign Jawaan Taylor

ESPN's Field Yates expects the Jacksonville Jaguars to re-sign impending free-agent offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor this offseason. Taylor won't be cheap after peaking in 2022. He's been a staple on Jacksonville's offensive line since being drafted in 2019, playing every offensive snap. A deal with a per-year average of $15 million-plus could be on tap […]

Giants Could Go Receiver In First Round

Draft expert Matt Miller thinks that wide receiver needs to be a first-round focus for the New York Giants and general manager Joe Schoen in this year's draft. Ohio State's Jaxon Smith-Njigba is a dream target if he's available. The Giants have nine projected draft picks in 2023, so Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll […]

Bills Offensive Line Could Be Point Of Emphasis

ESPN's Alaina Getzenberg writes that the Buffalo Bills should be looking for help along the interior of their offensive line this offseason. Rodger Saffold III, David Quessenberry, Greg Van Roten and Ike Boettger are set to hit free agency next month, so adding young talent up front to help protect quarterback Josh Allen should be […]

Bills Expected To Re-Sign Jordan Poyer

ESPN's Field Yates expects the Buffalo Bills to re-sign impending free-agent Pro Bowl safety Jordan Poyer this offseason. He continues to play at a high level, and both sides have been interested in a contract extension for some time. Poyer will be entering his age-32 season in 2023, so this will be his best shot […]

Extension Could Be Coming For CeeDee Lamb

One of the Dallas Cowboys' biggest offseason priorities should be to sign wide receiver CeeDee Lamb and/or cornerback Trevon Diggs to long-term extensions, writes ESPN's Todd Archer. Lamb and Diggs will be eligible for extensions this offseason, and both will be expensive. But if Dallas fails to sign either player, they will be treading water […]

Big Extension Coming For Nick Bosa?

Football Outsiders' Aaron Schatz predicts that the San Francisco 49ers will sign All-Pro pass-rusher Nick Bosa to a new long-term deal this offseason. Bosa is due almost $18 million in 2023 in the final year of his rookie deal, so an extension would serve to lower his salary cap hit next season while also guaranteeing […]

49ers Will Try To Bring Emmanuel Moseley Back

ESPN's Nick Wagoner writes that the San Francisco 49ers will likely focus on re-signing cornerback Emmanuel Moseley (knee) this offseason. He was playing like a No. 1 cornerback before he tore his left ACL in October. It won't be easy to bring him back, though, after he had five pass breakups and an interception in […]

Bengals Expected To Re-Sign Jessie Bates III

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler expects the Cincinnati Bengals to re-sign safety Jessie Bates III this offseason. Cincinnati will also have to consider extensions for quarterback Joe Burrow and wide receiver Tee Higgins this offseason, but Bates has made far too many plays for the Bengals secondary to let him go, including five interceptions in the last […]

Aaron Donald Coming Back For Another Season

There was some doubt as to whether Los Angeles Rams All-Pro defensive lineman Aaron Donald would return in 2023 after the regular season ended, but Donald has since clarified that he will return for his 10th NFL season. The 31-year-old pass-rusher hasn't played a football game since November due to an ankle injury, but he […]

Raiders Expected To Use Franchise Tag On Josh Jacobs

It is a consensus that Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs will receive the franchise tag from the team this offseason. The former first-rounder won the rushing title in 2022. Jacobs and the Raiders have yet to start long-term extension talks, but he's made it clear he wants nothing to do with the franchise […]

Tony Pollard Expected To Receive Franchise Tag

Dallas Cowboys impending free-agent running back Tony Pollard is expected to receive the franchise tag from the team this offseason. Pollard had over 1,000 rushing yards and nearly 400 more through the air in his fourth NFL season in 2022, and he was the team's most dynamic weapon on offense, totaling 12 total touchdowns (nine […]

Colts Taking Their Time With Head-Coaching Decision

Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay said on Tuesday that the team's decision on hiring a new head coach is "coming in days not hours." "We said, as an organization (Colts) the coaching search would be an open-minded and a thorough process… and the final decision would be strictly based on what is best for our […]

Titans Hire Tim Kelly As New Offensive Coordinator

The Tennessee Titans hired Tim Kelly as their new offensive coordinator on Tuesday, while Atlanta Falcons quarterbacks coach Charles London will become their new passing-game coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Meanwhile, on defense, Chris Harris was hired to be the pass-game coordinator and cornerbacks coach. Kelly spent last year as the team's pass-game coordinator. Quarterback Ryan […]

Saints Granted Permission To Visit With Derek Carr

The New Orleans Saints invited Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr for a visit and the Raiders have granted permission, according to sources. The plan is for the Saints to visit with Carr on Wednesday. Carr has a no-trade clause and is doing his due diligence with a trade imminent. Saints head coach Dennis Allen […]

Astros, Kyle Tucker Have Discussed Extension

Houston Astros new general manager Dana Brown said the team has begun contract extension talks with outfielder Kyle Tucker and his representatives. The Astros also have a potential arbitration hearing with Tucker this month, but an extension would likely wipe out his arbitration-eligible years. The 26-year-old left-handed slugger made the All-Star team for the first […]

Marlins, Jon Berti Avoid Arbitration

The Miami Marlins and infielder Jon Berti avoided salary arbitration on Monday night by agreeing to a one-year deal worth $2.125 million with a team option for 2024 that is worth $3.5 million. Berti led the majors in stolen bases last year with 41 while hitting .240/.324/.338 with a .662 OPS, four home runs, 28 […]

DJ LeMahieu Looks Back To Old Self

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (toe) has been hitting, running and working on defense as an offseason regular at the team's player development complex, and his bat speed and swing appear to be back to pre-injury levels, according to hitting coach Dillon Lawson. "Last year with the injury, he couldn't load the way he […]

Josh Donaldson Projected To Start At 3B For Yankees

New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said that third baseman Josh Donaldson projects to be the team's starter at third base in 2023 despite hitting .222 with 15 home runs in 2022 in his first year in the Bronx. Donaldson has one year and at least $27 million left on his deal, but the […]

Yankees Impressed With Oswald Peraza

New York Yankees shortstop Oswald Peraza made his MLB debut last September, and his transition to the big stage in the Bronx appeared seamless after he hit .306 in his first 49 major-league at-bats. The 22-year-old continues to impress this offseason, too. "He has the exit (velocities)," hitting coach Dillon Lawson said. "He has the […]

Anthony Volpe On A Mission

New York Yankees infield prospect Anthony Volpe, who received a non-roster invite to major-league spring training, has worked hard this offseason to make sure he's in midseason form when camp begins. The 21-year-old will compete for the Opening Day shortstop job, and he went to the team's player development complex in late November to get […]
