Nathan Peterman Released By Bears

The Chicago Bears have released veteran quarterback Nathan Peterman ahead of Tuesday's deadline for teams to cut down to 53 active players. Peterman could sign back with the practice squad, but it looks like rookie Tyson Bagent will serve as Justin Fields' direct backup in 2023. Peterman has thrown four touchdowns to 13 interceptions since […]

McBride was selected by the Vikings in the seventh round in the 2023 NFL Draft after a stellar final season at UAB. McBride rushed 233 times for 1,713 yards and 19 touchdowns in 2022. Given his college production, there might […]

Yankees Release Josh Donaldson

The New York Yankees released infielder Josh Donaldson prior to their game on Tuesday night. It's been a disastrous year for the former MVP in his second year in the Bronx. He's been out with a calf injury since the middle of July due to a right-calf strain, and he wasn't very productive at all […]

Malik Davis Released By Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys released running back Malik Davis on Tuesday as teams cut down to 53-man rosters. Davis came into the preseason as a contender for the No. 2 running back job behind Tony Pollard but has evidently been outplayed by Rico Dowdle and rookie Deuce Vaughn. The Cowboys want to bring Davis back as […]

Tigers Claim Bennett Sousa Off Waivers From Brewers

The Detroit Tigers claimed left-hander Bennett Sousa off waivers from the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday.

Raiders Release Keelan Cole Sr., Phillip Dorsett

The Las Vegas Raiders informed wide receivers Keelan Cole Sr. and Phillip Dorsett of their release from the team on Tuesday.

Barring a setback […]

Robbie Chosen Released By Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins have released veteran wide receiver Robbie Chosen. Anderson has spent time with the New York Jets, Carolina Panthers, and Arizona Cardinals since entering the league in 2016 as an undrafted free agent, but he couldn't crack Miami's 53-man roster. The 30-year-old wideout was thought to be competing for a WR3 or WR4 […]

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Could See Some Time At Third Base

The Toronto Blue Jays don't plan to start first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at third base with Matt Chapman (finger) on the injured list, but they're legitimately open to using him at the hot corner late in games as they make substitutions. Guerrero has been taking ground balls at third base this week to prepare […]

Nick Folk Traded To Titans

The New England Patriots are trading veteran kicker Nick Folk to the Tennessee Titans in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

Rich Hill Returning To Padres Rotation On Wednesday

San Diego Padres left-hander Rich Hill will return to the starting rotation for the Friars on Wednesday to face the St. Louis Cardinals on the road. The Padres need another starter after they placed right-hander Yu Darvish (elbow) on the 15-day injured list on Monday. Hill will have a solid matchup against the disappointing Cardinals […]

Chase Silseth Lands On Seven-Day Injured List

The Los Angeles Angels placed right-hander Chase Silseth (head) on the seven-day concussion injured list (retroactive to Aug. 27) on Tuesday and recalled left-hander Kenny Rosenberg from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move.

Running Back Committees to Target for Fantasy Football Drafts - A.J. Dillon, Tyler Allgeier, David Montgomery, more

Running. Back. Committee. One of the scariest phrases in fantasy football. Just typing that gave me chills. Fantasy football managers often avoid backfield committees, and for good reason. After all, they bring uncertainty. It's not the best idea to spend one of your prized draft picks on a player whose ceiling could be 50 percent […]

The Denver Broncos waived tight end Albert Okwuegbunam on Tuesday, according to a source. Okwuegbunam had a great preseason finale on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Rams (seven catches, 109 yards and a TD) and a good final couple of weeks in training camp, but the Broncos are deep at the position this year […]

Must-Haves For PPR: Fantasy Football Draft Targets Include Darren Waller, Amon-Ra St. Brown, James Conner, more

Full-point PPR is a unique beast. Unlike its more popular younger brother, Half-PPR, receptions can truly make or break a player's fantasy football impact. I believe one of the most overlooked aspects of PPR is finding volume on bad teams. These are unlikely to be the most popular names, but they are the ones that […]

No Structural Damage For Matt Thaiss

Los Angeles Angels catcher Matt Thaiss (shoulder) jammed his shoulder on a slide into third base on Aug. 19 and tried to play through it before being put on the 10-day injured list on Aug. 25 with right-shoulder inflammation. Thaiss said the injury affects him most when he throws, but he said he's hopeful it's […]

Zach Neto Is Pain-Free

Los Angeles Angels rookie shortstop Zach Neto (back) is pain-free and rejoined the team on their road trip. He started baseball activities in New York on Aug. 25 and has been playing catch on the field and advanced to taking dry swings. Neto also did some infield work on Monday. He initially went on the […]

No Timeline For Matt McLain's Return

Cincinnati Reds rookie infielder Matt McLain (oblique) landed on the 10-day injured list on Monday with a right-oblique strain, and the Reds don't have a timeline for his return.

Casey Mize Faces Live Hitters

Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (elbow) faced live hitters on Saturday at Comerica Park for the first time since his elbow injury, throwing 20 pitches and reporting no issues.

Matt Manning On Track For Next Start

Detroit Tigers right-hander Matt Manning (back) is on track to make his next start after exiting his last start against the Houston Astros with what he described as a "stinger" in his lower back.
