The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have discussed the possibility of moving All-Pro right tackle Tristan Wirfs to the left side in 2023.

[…]

Gavin Lux Has Successful Knee Surgery

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Gavin Lux's (knee) surgery on Wednesday "went well," according to manager Dave Roberts. In addition to suffering a torn right ACL in a Cactus League game on Feb. 27, Lux's surgery confirmed the damage to his LCL was "more than a sprain."

Miguel Vargas Cleared To Swing

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Miguel Vargas (finger) isn't in the team's Cactus League lineup on Wednesday, but he said his routine is "back to normal."

The New York Jets restructured tight end C.J. Uzomah's contract on Wednesday by converting $4.5 million of his salary into a bonus, which will clear $3.6 million in salary cap space in 2023. It saves the Jets some money this year, but Uzomah will now count $12.5 million against the cap in 2024. The 30-year-old […]

Cardinals Release Chosen Anderson

The Arizona Cardinals officially released wide receiver Chosen Anderson on Wednesday. The artist formerly known as Robbie Anderson will get a bit of a head start on the free-agent market in a move that was expected.

DeAndre Hopkins Will Be Flexible With Contract

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins admitted on The Pat McAfee Show this week that he's "been hearing a lot of trade talks."

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitchers Daniel Hudson (ankle, knee) and Yency Almonte (elbow) are scheduled to face live hitters on Wednesday for the first time since spring training started.

Boston Red Sox left-hander James Paxton (hamstring) played catch on Wednesday in camp and is hoping to get back on a mound by the end of this week.
