Matt Breida Signs With 49ers

Free-agent running back Matt Breida signed an undisclosed deal with the San Francisco 49ers on Monday, according to a source. The eight-year NFL veteran rushed for 1,902 yards with the 49ers from 2017 to 2019 in his first three years in the league after he went undrafted out of Georgia Southern. After his time in […]

Braelon Allen Listed As RB2 For Jets

New York Jets rookie running back Braelon Allen was listed as the top backup to Breece Hall on the team's first unofficial depth chart of the preseason on Monday. Allen was not really known for his pass-catching skills at Wisconsin, but he impressed the coaching staff in that regard in spring practices and early in […]

Ladd McConkey Injured Over The Weekend

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey (undisclosed) was forced to leave Saturday's training camp practice early due to an undisclosed injury and remained out on Sunday. The Chargers haven't disclosed the specific nature of McConkey's injury after he initially was injured last Thursday in practice before returning on Friday. The 22-year-old second-rounder figures […]

Rashod Bateman Injured Again On Monday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman suffered an injury to his midsection during Monday's training camp practice. It's unclear exactly what type of injury Bateman suffered, but he was seen walking off the field with a trainer while holding his midsection or ribs. The 24-year-old wasn't able to finish practice and may now be in […]

Bryce Young May Not Appear In The Preseason

Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales said that there's a chance that second-year quarterback Bryce Young won't play in any preseason games. There is value in having Young work with new center Austin Corbett, but the Panthers are still weighing the decision. It seems like an odd decision for a 23-year-old that struggled mightily in […]

Texans Starting Offense Expected To Play In Second Preseason Game

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said that his first-team offense will play in the team's second preseason game this Friday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ryans didn't go into detail on how much the starting offense will be on the field, but it's safe to assume quarterback C.J. Stroud and the rest of the offensive […]

Zach LaVine Still On The Trade Market

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine remains on the roster despite months of trade rumors. While the lack of movement would appear to suggest LaVine is no longer in danger of being moved, that's not the case, with Joe Cowley of The Chicago Sun-Times reporting the team is still looking to trade him. Several things are […]

Matthew Boyd To Make Another Rehab Start On Wednesday

Cleveland Guardians left-hander Matthew Boyd (elbow) will make another minor-league rehab start on Wednesday with Triple-A Columbus in what could be his final rehab outing before joining the big-league roster. Boyd has already made four rehab starts as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery, but it's unclear whether he'll be used as […]

Tanner Bibee Playing Catch, Expected Back Soon

Cleveland Guardians right-hander Tanner Bibee (shoulder) has resumed playing catch, and manager Stephen Vogt anticipates him being ready to return to the starting rotation soon. The Guardians have held Bibee back since he felt tightness in his right shoulder in his last start last Monday against the Detroit Tigers. Barring a setback with the 25-year-old's […]

Gabriel Moreno Suffers Strained Groin On Monday

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno (groin) was removed from Monday's contest early against the hosting Cleveland Guardians with a strained left groin. The good news for fantasy managers is that Moreno went 2-for-2 with a solo home run in the contest before leaving early. He was replaced behind the plate by Jose Herrera. Moreno will […]

Ryan Weathers Throws On Flat Ground

Miami Marlins left-hander Ryan Weathers (finger) threw on flat ground on Monday in front of the training staff before the contest against the visiting Cincinnati Reds. Weathers is currently on the 60-day injured list with a left index-finger strain but is hoping to throw bullpen sessions in two weeks before going on a minor-league rehab […]

Sixto Sanchez Continues To Throw Bullpens

Miami Marlins right-hander Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) continues to build intensity with his throwing and bullpen sessions. Sanchez has been doing the same thing for about a month while he recovers from right-shoulder inflammation that put him on the injured list all the way back on June 2. Because of his history with shoulder injuries, the […]

Jesus Luzardo Won't Throw For Another Six Weeks

Miami Marlins left-hander Jesus Luzardo (back) won't throw for another six weeks. Nothing is certain yet, but this news increases the likelihood that we won't see Luzardo pitch in the big leagues again this year. He's been working on strengthening his arm since last month but hasn't been able to throw at all since initially […]

Freddie Freeman Returning To Dodgers On Monday

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman (personal), who has missed the last eight games to be with his ailing three-year-old son, will return to the team on Monday. The Dodgers have yet to release an official lineup for Monday's contest against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies and right-hander Aaron Nola, but if Freeman is back […]

Jacob Wilson Taking Batting Practice On Monday

Oakland Athletics shortstop prospect Jacob Wilson (hamstring) is taking batting practice before Monday's series opener against the visiting Chicago White Sox. Wilson is making good progress from a left-hamstring strain, but the A's still plan on being cautious with his hamstring injury. The team's top prospect, per MLB Pipeline, got a hit in his first […]

Mason Miller Throws Live BP, Could Be Activated Soon

Oakland Athletics closer Mason Miller (finger) threw 15 pitches in a live batting practice session on Monday and came away feeling healthy. Miller could be activated from the 15-day injured list when he's eligible to return on Friday. Miller threw his first BP session on Monday after playing catch for the first time without a […]

Abraham Toro Retreats To The Bench

Oakland Athletics infielder Abraham Toro will head to the bench on Monday with the team facing the visiting Chicago White Sox. With Toro out, Darell Hernaiz will get the start at third base and will bat eighth in the order against White Sox left-hander Ky Bush, who is making his major-league debut. Toro will get […]

Jose Miranda, Brooks Lee Out Versus Cubs

Minnesota Twins infielders Jose Miranda and Brooks Lee are absent from the starting lineup at Wrigley Field on Monday against the hosting Chicago Cubs. Royce Lewis is playing third base and is batting third, while Matt Wallner will operate as the designated hitter and bat cleanup against Cubs right-hander Kyle Hendricks. Austin Martin is at […]

Byron Buxton Not Starting On Monday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (undisclosed) is not in the team's starting lineup on Monday against the hosting Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Buxton ran into the outfield wall while making a catch on Sunday against the Chicago White Sox and was pulled from the game due to an undisclosed injury. Although the 30-year-old veteran […]

Gavin Sheets Sitting Versus Southpaw

Chicago White Sox outfielder Gavin Sheets is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Oakland Athletics. Unsurprisingly, the White Sox will play matchups here against a left-handed starting pitcher. Nick Senzel will serve as the designated hitter and bat fifth versus JP Sears on Monday. Senzel has been quiet this season […]

Allen Lazard Off To A Promising Start In Camp

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard, who received a four-year, $44 million contract before the 2023 season, is off to a promising start in training camp this summer after posting just 23 catches last year. However, Lazard is viewed as a placeholder across from WR1 Garrett Wilson until Mike Williams (knee) is activated from […]

Lawrence Butler Getting A Breather

Oakland Athletics outfielder Lawrence Butler is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Butler will receive a much-needed day off after playing in every game since the All-Star break. The left-handed slugger was hitting everything in sight towards the end of July. Since then, Butler has cooled off […]

Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears Listed As Co-Starters

The Tennessee Titans have running backs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears listed as co-starters at the position on their first unofficial depth chart of training camp that was released on Monday. We always caution fantasy managers not to read too much into unofficial depth charts in the preseason, but this doesn't come as a surprise […]

Cody Bellinger To Remain As Designated Hitter

Chicago Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger (finger) is expected to remain as the designated hitter for the time being. The left-handed slugger returned from a fractured index finger last week. Since then, Bellinger is 8-for-24 with two homers, so it doesn't appear that the injury is impacting his swing. However, the Cubs are keeping Bellinger at […]

Za'Darius Smith Suffers Knee Contusion

Cleveland Browns defensive end Za'Darius Smith (knee) left practice at training camp on Monday after suffering a knee contusion and will be re-evaluated on Tuesday morning. Smith was carted off the field but may have avoided a serious injury. We won't know for sure until Tuesday, though. Even if the 31-year-old veteran pass-rusher isn't dealing […]

Ian Happ Returning On Monday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ (shoulder) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Minnesota Twins. This is good news after Happ was scratched ahead of Sunday's contest due to shoulder soreness. He'll bat leadoff and play in left field versus right-hander David Festa on Monday. Normally, Mike Tauchman would head […]

Mason Rudolph Impressing In Competition For Backup Role

Tennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph has looked very comfortable and has been remarkably accurate as he battles Malik Willis for the No. 2 QB role behind Will Levis in training camp this summer. Willis has improved and looks more comfortable than he's ever been, but Rudolph hasn't left a crack in the door for Willis […]

Seiya Suzuki Sitting Out On Monday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (neck) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Manager Craig Counsell expects Suzuki to return on Tuesday, but will sit out here due to neck stiffness. In the meantime, Mike Tauchman will cover right field and bat fifth versus right-hander David Festa. Fantasy […]

Steelers Don't Have Trade In Place For Brandon Aiyuk

Updating a previous report, there is currently no trade in place for San Francisco 49ers All-Pro wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk to be dealt to the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to sources. The 49ers have had discussions in recent days regarding a potential Aiyuk trade with several teams, but as of this point, nothing is finalized. The […]
