Texas Rangers outfielder Michael Helman went 2-for-3 and drove in all five runs in his team's 5-0 win on Monday night against Milwaukee.

Jacob Latz Limits the Brewers in Rangers' Victory

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob Latz worked 5 2/3 shutout innings against the mighty Milwaukee Brewers on Monday night to help the Rangers claim a 5-0 win in the series opener in Texas.

Trevor Story Blasts Home Run No. 24

Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story continued his strong second half of the season with another two-hit game in his team's series opener in Sacramento.

Garrett Crochet Shuts Out the Athletics

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet was sharp on Monday night in Sacramento, carrying his team to a comfortable 7-0 win to start their series against the Athletics.

Minnesota Twins third baseman Royce Lewis went yard twice in Monday's 12-3 thumping of the Angels.

Riley Patterson Will Fill In at Kicker vs. the Colts

Miami Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson will take the place of an injured Jason Sanders (hip) as the team's starting kicker in Week 1 against the Colts. The journeyman is suiting up for his sixth team in the last three seasons after stints with the Browns, Jets, Jaguars, Falcons, and Lions. He was signed to the […]

Dolphins D/ST a Fringe Play vs. the Colts

The Miami Dolphins defense will have a new look for the 2025 season going into coordinator Anthony Weaver's second season in South Florida. The Dolphins traded away star cornerback Jalen Ramsey and brought in safety Minkah Fitzpatrick to lead an extremely young secondary that includes second-year cornerback Storm Duck, rookie Jason Marshall Jr., and free-agent […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Down the Depth Chart for Dolphins Debut

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine came to Miami this past offseason on a two-year, $6.5 million contract, but he doesn't look like he'll be very involved in Week 1. Westbrook-Ikhine showed a nose for the end zone in his five seasons in Tennessee and had nine touchdowns last year on just 32 catches for […]

Julian Hill Set to Start in Week 1

Miami Dolphins tight end Julian Hill is in line to get the start against the Colts after offseason acquisition Darren Waller (hip) was ruled out. Waller's return after a year off has not gone according to plan since he hasn't been able to stay healthy enough to get used to the offense or connect with […]

Malik Washington Brings Breakout Potential

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington is set to start the season as the team's third receiver behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. The second-year receiver could be in for a more involved role in 2025 after catching just 26 passes for 223 yards as a rookie. Washington was Miami's sixth-round pick out of Virginia […]

Jaylen Waddle Starts the Season as a WR3 with Upside

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) missed practices during this training camp, but he was able to play in the preseason and is ready to start the season healthy in Week 1 against the Colts. He spent most of the offseason working as the team's top receiver since Tyreek Hill (wrist, oblique) was dealing […]

Tyreek Hill Has No Injury Designation for Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique/calf) has been limited in training camp and did not play in the preseason. He was diagnosed with an oblique injury in August but was able to put in limited practices all week until returning to a full practice on Friday. Since he doesn't have a designation for Sunday's […]

Ollie Gordon II Lined Up for Primary Backup Role

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II is set to be the primary backup for the team when they open the season on Sunday afternoon against the Colts. Gordon had a strong preseason with 126 rushing yards and a touchdown, along with three catches for 48 receiving yards over his three preseason games. Gordon was […]

De'Von Achane Ready to Roll

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane has no injury designation and should be ready to go on Sunday when the Dolphins face the Colts. He was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday due to a calf injury, but was able to return to full practice on Friday. He may share more work with exciting […]

Tua Tagovailoa a Low-End QB2 in Week 1

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa starts the season healthy and with a good group of pass-catchers as he leads his team to Indianapolis to take on the Colts. Since he doesn't run very much at all, the 27-year-old has limited upside. No quarterback in the NFL had a lower air yards per attempt (5.8) than […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Begins the Season as a Strong Kicker Play

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn and the Texans take on the Rams in Week 1, giving Fairbairn a boost since he's playing indoors at SoFi Stadium. Last year, he connected on 36 field goals in 42 attempts, the second-highest season total in his eight-year career. He set a new career best with an impressive 13 […]

Texans D/ST a Borderline Start in Week 1

The Houston Texans defense is a fringe play in Week 1 as they go on the road to visit the Rams. Matthew Stafford has battled a back issue throughout training camp, so his reps have been limited, and the starters have not logged as much playing time as would be ideal. They also added Davante […]

Dalton Schultz Is Not a Strong Start Against the Rams

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz restructured his deal this offseason and remains the top pass-catching tight end in his team's passing game. However, he posted five-year lows last year with 53 catches for 532 yards and only a pair of touchdowns despite playing in all 17 regular-season games last year. He still has 500+ […]

Jaylin Noel Could Step Up in NFL Debut

Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel will make his NFL debut on Sunday against the Rams, and there could be work available since Christian Kirk (hamstring) is out, moving him up the depth chart. While Jayden Higgins and Xavier Hutchinson will likely rotate across from Nico Collins, Noel is a more natural fit in the […]

Xavier Hutchinson a Deep Sleeper Week 1

Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson earned more playing time with a big training camp, and he could have a chance to secure a bigger role moving forward since the team will be without Christian Kirk (hamstring) for Week 1. Hutchinson finished last season with four catches for 52 yards in the playoff loss to […]

Jayden Higgins Could Be Very Involved vs. the Rams

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins could be called upon as the team's second receiver in his NFL debut since Christian Kirk (hamstring) has been ruled out. Higgins was listed on the team's unofficial depth chart as starting next to Kirk and Nico Collins, but with Kirk out, he could draw even more targets […]

Nico Collins Could Be Lined Up for Extra Targets

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is usually a target magnet, and he could be even busier than usual in Week 1 since the Texans won't have offseason additions Christian Kirk (hamstring) or Braxton Berrios (hamstring) in addition to Tank Dell (knee), who is expected to miss most or all of the season. The rest […]

Dameon Pierce Expected to Be in the Rotation in Week 1

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce should have an opportunity to contribute early in the season for his team, since Joe Mixon (ankle) is on the reserve/non-football injury list and will miss at least the first four weeks and possibly longer. Pierce is expected to share the workload in the backfield with veteran Nick Chubb […]

Woody Marks is a Rookie Rusher to Watch in Week 1

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks will make his NFL debut on Sunday afternoon when the Texans head to SoFi Stadium to take on the Rams. Marks is expected to be the team's top receiving-down back and could play his way into a larger role with Nick Chubb and Dameon Pierce also expected to be […]

Nick Chubb Opens the Season as Texans Top Running Back

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb will begin the season as the primary early-down option for the Texans since Joe Mixon (ankle/foot) is on the reserve/non-football injury list. Chubb was brought in as a free agent this past offseason after he spent his first seven seasons in the NFL with the Browns. He has been […]

C.J. Stroud Starts the Season as a Strong QB2

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud opens the season in Los Angeles against the Rams on Sunday afternoon, as he looks to start a bounce-back season. He took a step backwards last season after throwing for 4,108 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, and five interceptions in 15 games as a rookie. He finished with 3,727 passing yards, […]

Daniel Robert Lands on the Injured List

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Daniel Robert (forearm) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday due to a right forearm strain.
