Myles Turner Is In Great Shape

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner is reportedly in great shape after missing nearly half of last season. It sounds like Turner has fully recovered from his left foot stress reaction. That being said, Turner is ready to play and says that his playing time is very important to him. He noted that he has come […]

Kent Bazemore Signs With Kings

The Sacramento Kings have agreed to a one-year deal with forward Kent Bazemore. The veteran guard appeared in nearly 40 games with the Los Angeles Lakers last season. However, he only averaged 3.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, 0.9 assists over 14 minutes per game in LA. The 33-year-old has put together some decent seasons in the […]

Knicks Unwilling To Trade Derrick Rose

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose is unlikely to get moved this offseason. The Knicks have been in trade discussions with the Utah Jazz. New York is reportedly attempting to get Donovan Mitchell, but have made it known that Rose is unavailable in trade talks. Rose is a long-time favorite of head coach Tom Thibodeau, […]

Udoka Azubuike Likely To Have Increased Role

Utah Jazz center Udoka Azubuike could see a bigger role in the rotation heading into next season. The departure of Rudy Gobert has opened up significant minutes at the center spot in Utah. As of right now, rookie Walker Kessler is projected to be the starting big man. Although, Azubuike is basically the only backup […]

Pharaoh Brown Slimmer This Year

Houston Texans tight end Pharaoh Brown lost 18 pounds this offseason after watching film of himself and deciding that he looked slow and unathletic. "He's listed as a tight end, but he can play in line, he can move out," head coach Lovie Smith said. "It's a tough matchup because he has big wide receiver […]

Taysom Hill Returns To Practice

New Orleans Saints quarterback/tight end Taysom Hill (ribs) had a limited training camp practice on Monday and mostly did individual drills. It's all part of head coach Dennis Allen's ramp-up process for Hill, who suffered rib injuries early in training camp. The 31-year-old is making the transition from full-time quarterback to tight end this year, […]

Ravens Agree To Four-Year Extension With Justin Tucker

The Baltimore Ravens reached agreement on a four-year contract extension with kicker Justin Tucker on Monday, which is expected to make him the NFL's highest-paid kicker. Financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed, but the Pittsburgh Steelers recently signed Chris Boswell for four years and $20 million, so it should be north of that figure. […]

James Robinson Taking Snaps With First-Team Offense

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (Achilles) is taking snaps with the first-team offense at training camp practice on Monday for the first time all summer, which seems pretty significant, according to SI.com's John Shipley. Robinson is attempting to come back from a torn Achilles suffered last year, and most of the offseason hype has […]

Aaron Rodgers Won't Play In Preseason Opener

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers won't play in the team's preseason opener on Friday against the San Francisco 49ers. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that Jordan Love will get the start. It's not a big surprise that the 38-year-old future Hall of Famer will be rested in the team's first preseason game, especially after […]

Tyler Linderbaum Has Reoccurrence Of Lisfranc Injury

Baltimore Ravens rookie first-round center Tyler Linderbaum (foot) had a reoccurrence of a Lisfranc injury, suffering a sprain and not a rupture. More tests are coming for the 22-year-old at training camp. There's still a chance that he could be ready for Week 1 of the regular season, but it's not a guarantee at this […]

Baker Mayfield Has Inside Track For Starting Job

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield has the inside track on the starting job over Sam Darnold to open the 2022 regular season. Mayfield and Darnold opened training camp in an open competition and have been splitting first-team repetitions pretty much down the middle. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says it's clear that it's Mayfield's job to […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk limped off the field at training camp practice on Monday with a trainer with an undisclosed injury.

Blue Jays Hope To Get Tim Mayza Back This Year

The Toronto Blue Jays are hopeful that they'll get relief pitcher Tim Mayza (shoulder) back near the end of August after he recently suffered a dislocated right shoulder.

Lance McCullers Jr. Goes Five Innings In Rehab Start

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (forearm) went five innings in his latest minor league rehab start for Triple-A Sugar Land on Sunday, allowing five earned runs on seven hits (two home runs) while walking three and striking out five. It wasn't a great outing for McCullers, and it remains to be seen if […]

Jon Berti Steals A Base In Rehab Game

Miami Marlins infielder Jon Berti (groin) went 0-for-3 with a walk, two strikeouts and a stolen base while playing third base and hitting leadoff on Sunday in a minor league rehab game for Triple-A Jacksonville.

Fernando Tatis Jr. Goes Hitless In Second Rehab Game

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. (wrist) went 0-for-3 while playing shortstop and batting leadoff for Double-A San Antonio on Sunday in his second minor league rehab game. He also committed a fielding error. Tatis has gone hitless in his first two rehab games on the farm, but the Padres think there's a realistic […]

Scotty Miller Healthy And Competing

Tampa Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller was a possible cut candidate as recently as a few weeks ago, but he is now fully healthy and competing to secure a role. Miller missed seven games due to a turf toe injury in 2021 that really derailed his growth in the offense. Miller returned for the playoffs, […]

Donald Parham Jr. Likely To Miss This Week

As reported on Sunday, Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham Jr. (hamstring) left practice with a leg injury. The severity of the injury was unknown at the time, but head coach Brandon Staley has since confirmed he expects Parham to miss this week of training camp. This is disappointing for Parham, who was making […]

Rachaad White Excels In Goal-Line Role

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers drafted rookie running back Rachaad White 91st overall after releasing veteran Ronald Jones, who has since signed with the Chiefs. White has been projected to primarily take on a role in the passing game given his receiving skill set, however, he has shown an ability to excel in other areas as […]

Cade Otton Putting On A Show In Camp

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers drafted rookie tight end Cade Otton 106th overall to join veteran Cameron Brate and future Hall of Famer Rob Gronkowski. Things changed, however, when Gronkowski announced his retirement, prompting the team to sign veteran tight end Kyle Rudolph. There are a lot of bodies to fill this position, but Otton has […]

Tyler Conklin Impressing Robert Saleh

The New York Jets signed free-agent tight end Tyler Conklin to a three-year, $21 million deal this offseason. This coincided with a three-year, $24 million deal for fellow tight end C.J. Uzomah, creating some ambiguity at the position. While it's still early, it seems Conklin is leading the way. Head coach Robert Saleh said, "Conk […]
