Aaron Ashby Could Be An Option For Brewers Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Aaron Ashby (shoulder) has been out since hurting his left shoulder in the lead-up to spring training. He progressed all summer before hitting a bit of a roadblock in terms of his velocity. But Ashby had a good week of throwing during the team's Aug. 22-27 homestand and was slated to throw […]

Julio Teheran To Make Another Rehab Start Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Julio Teheran (hip) threw a bullpen session on Sept. 2 in preparation for another minor-league rehab start for Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday. Teheran went on the injured list with a right-hip impingement that had been bothering him since July 18. He began his rehab assignment with High-A Wisconsin on Aug. 25 and […]

Jesse Winker Suffers Quad Injury

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jesse Winker (back, quadriceps) started a minor-league rehab assignment with High-A Wisconsin on Aug. 15 and was moved to Triple-A Nashville on Aug. 22, but his potential comeback hit a snag when he suffered a right-quadriceps injury in a game on Sept. 2, according to manager Craig Counsell. Winker's back spasms started […]

Adrian Houser Throws A Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Adrian Houser (elbow) threw a bullpen session on Monday, according to manager Craig Counsell. The skipper said Houser is doing well, and it's possible that he'll be ready to rejoin the starting rotation right around when he's first eligible to return on Sept. 12. He left his Aug. 27 start after two […]

Louie Varland To Work In Relief

Minnesota Twins right-hander Louie Varland returned to the team on Monday from Triple-A St. Paul, but for now, the former starter will work in a relief role out of the bullpen. Varland, who posted a 1.95 ERA in August after being sent to the minors, is OK moving to a relief role, but he wants […]

Byron Buxton Pausing His Rehab Assignment

Minnesota Twins outfielder/designated hitter Byron Buxton (knee) will pause his minor-league rehab assignment for now to let the patellar tendinitis in his right knee subside, according to manager Rocco Baldelli. Buxton didn't accompany Triple-A St. Paul on Monday. Baldelli said he didn't know whether Buxton's knee soreness will end the team's hopes of allowing him […]

Ryan Walker Serving As Opener For Giants

San Francisco Giants rookie right-hander Ryan Walker will serve as the team's opener for their game at Wrigley Field on Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs. This will be the 12th "start" for Walker as an opener this year, but he's unlikely to go more than three innings, so fantasy managers looking for a streamer should […]

JoJo Romero Lands On Injured List

The St. Louis Cardinals placed relief pitcher JoJo Romero (knee) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to Sept. 2) on Monday with left-knee patellar tendinitis and activated left-hander Matthew Liberatore (back) from the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. It's a significant development for the Cardinals' bullpen, as Romero had been serving as the […]

Dameon Pierce To Be Involved In Platoon?

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce took over as the team's featured back in Week 2 in his rookie season last year and never looked back, finishing with 939 rushing yards and four touchdowns. However, the addition of Devin Singletary, who had 819 yards and five touchdowns for the Buffalo Bills in 2022, could mean […]

David Montgomery Expected To Take Over Goal-Line Carries

The Detroit Lions gave running back David Montgomery a three-year, $18 million deal this offseason, but they also took rookie Jahmyr Gibbs with the 12th overall pick in the draft. The Athletic's Colton Pouncy writes that Montgomery is expected to take over the goal-line carries in one of the league's best offenses, while Gibbs is […]

Javonte Williams Could Have Lesser Role In The First Month

Denver Broncos third-year running back Javonte Williams (knee) impressed coaches and teammates with a speedy recovery after he tore his ACL and suffered other ligament damage in Week 4 last October. He looked sharp in training camp and his lone preseason appearance. However, The Athletic's Nick Kosmider writes that it may be fair to peg […]

Tony Pollard Expected To See A Career-High In Touches

The big question this year is will the Dallas Cowboys keep running back Tony Pollard's usage the same as it's been in previous years in an effort to maintain his production, or will they put more on his plate with Ezekiel Elliott gone? The Athletic's Saad Yousuf believes the end result will be something in […]

Nick Chubb Still A Top Fantasy Back

The Athletic's Zac Jackson believes that Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb is still a first-round fantasy asset that is powerful, durable and explosive. Cleveland is going to be a more open offense and will use quarterback Deshaun Watson as a runner, but it's unlikely that they're going to forget about Chubb and their experienced, […]

Not Much Certainty In Cincinnati Behind Joe Mixon

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans looked to have won the third-down role in training camp, but head coach Zac Taylor said last week he was still competing with Trayveon Williams, who has returned from an ankle injury. It's a valuable spot on the roster behind starter Joe Mixon, but The Athletic's Paul Dehner Jr. […]

Bucs Backfield A Committee Behind Rachaad White

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White is the team's lead back entering the 2023 regular season, but it's looking like a committee behind him between Chase Edmonds, Ke'Shawn Vaughn and rookie Sean Tucker. Running backs coach Skip Peete has frequently rotated multiple backs at his other NFL stops. "Chase, I know, can do some […]

Cowboys Expect Dak Prescott To Be Around A "Long Time"

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that the team expects quarterback Dak Prescott to be "with us a long time." Prescott's current deal expires after the 2024 season, and he'll carry a $59.4 million salary cap figure next year. It doesn't look like the two sides will come to an agreement […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Could Function As The Primary Downfield Receiving Threat

Detroit Lions rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs could be used as the team's primary downfield pass-catching threat early this season, according to Tim Twentyman of Lions.com.
