Pressure Might Get to Hideki Matsuyama at Tour Championship

Hideki Matsuyama nearly won a medal at the Tokyo Olympics and then finished tied for second at the FedEx-St. Jude. After that, there was this one nagging issue. His putting and ball striking were a little errant late in each tournament. Too many opportunities were missed and then he cracked. He could not make enough […]

Panthers Waive Rodney Smith

Carolina Panthers running back Rodney Smith (knee) was waived by the team Tuesday. Smith practiced for the first time in a couple of weeks, as he was sidelined due to a knee injury, though he was one of the final roster cuts the team made to get down to 53. The 25-year-old back was competing […]

Daniel Berger Questionable Choice at Tour Championship

Daniel Berger needed a final round 66 last week just to cement his spot in the Tour Championship. That Sunday got him a tied for 26th finish which allowed him to rank 26th in the Top 30. The American golfer is fifth in strokes gained approaching the green. Normally, he putts well enough but last […]

Evan Engram Uncertain For Week 1

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf) is uncertain to play in the regular-season opener against the Denver Broncos, per head coach Joe Judge. "There is some gray area on this one," said Judge. The Giants will continue to monitor the tight end throughout the week. Engram exited Sunday's preseason game versus the New […]

Xander Schauffele Not Recommended for Tour Championship

Xander Schauffele won the gold medal and then it seemed things got difficult. He finished outside the top-40 in two of the last three tournaments. Last week, while everyone was making birdies over the weekend, Schauffele shot above par at the BMW Championship. The Maryland golf course just played games with the American. He started […]

Jon'Vea Johnson Cut By Bears

Chicago Bears wide receiver Jon'Vea Johnson has been waived by the team. Johnson got off to a strong start during training camp and earned praise for his early connection with rookie Justin Fields. But drops plagued Johnson during preseason games and simply did not make enough plays to wrestle the last wide receiver spot away […]

Brooks Koepka Building Momentum for Tour Championship

The East Bay course may prove to Brooks Koepka's liking. Often, the best of the best brings out the best in golfers. Koepka is no exception. He slowly got better the past three weeks and nearly finished in the top-20 at the BMW Championship (22nd). The American golfer just could not string enough birdies together […]

Tom Kennedy Makes The Team

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tom Kennedy has made the final roster as the team begins to prepare for Week 1. Kennedy beat out players like Breshad Perriman and Geronimo Allison for the WR6 spot on the team. The 5'10" receiver impressed the coaching staff throughout training camp and led the team in receiving in two […]

Josh Reynolds Returns To Practice Tuesday

Tennessee Titans Josh Reynolds (Achilles) returned to practice on Tuesday. He reportedly was dealing with an Achilles injury and missed practice for most of last week. The 26-year-old is in line to be the Titans WR3 behind A.J. Brown and Julio Jones. Reynolds is someone to monitor in deep-league formats after hauling in 52 receptions […]

Trinity Benson Traded To Lions

The Detroit Lions have traded their fifth and seventh-round 2022 picks to the Broncos for wide receiver Trinity Benson. The Lions wide receivers room lacks depth and is largely unproven and the team is taking a chance on the 24-year-old speedster. The haul is pretty steep for an undrafted player who has played the last […]

Rory McIlroy Could Thrive at Tour Championship

It seems hard to believe that Rory McIlroy is ranked just 16th in the FedEx Cup Standings but yet the golfer is. He needed a very good weekend (65-67) just to finish in the top-five at the BMW Championship. McIlroy putted well and struck the ball like the former number one ranked golfer used to. […]

Craig Reynolds Does Not Make Final Roster

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds has been waived by the team. Reynolds made headlines when he was signed the night before the Lions preseason opener and then suited up and racked up 87 rushing yards, including a 24-yard touchdown run. After a promising debut, Reynolds failed to make a lasting impression. Despite not making […]

Geronimo Allison Cut Loose By Lions

Detroit Lions wide receiver Geronimo Allison has been waived by the team. Allison signed with the Lions last season but then opted out of the 2020 season. Allison came into camp with an opportunity to carve out a role in a thin wide receivers room but failed to make an impact. Allison could return to […]

Jaguars Surprisingly Waive Collin Johnson

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced that they waived wide receiver Collin Johnson on Tuesday. Johnson's release comes as a surprise, as he seemed likely to make the team before the announcement due to his strong camp and the lack of other options after the team also waived Laquon Treadwell and released Phillip Dorsett II. Johnson is […]

Tim Boyle Out Six-To-Eight Weeks

Detroit Lions quarterback Tim Boyle (thumb) will miss the next six-to-eight weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a damaged thumb. Boyle apparently broke his thumb on the first drive of the Lions final preseason game but stayed in the game for one more series to complete 6-of-7 passes during a 14-play touchdown drive. This development […]

Kurt Benkert Waived

Quarterback Kurt Benkert has been waived by the Green Bay Packers. Benkert was battling for the QB2 job behind Aaron Rodgers with Jordan Love. Benkert played solid football at times but the Packers have decided to not keep three quarterbacks on the active roster. Reports already indicate that Benkert would be a candidate for the […]

Packers Cut Equanimeous St. Brown

The Green Bay Packers have waived wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown. The 24-year-old flashed plenty of promise in 2019, catching 21 passes for 328 yards as rookie. But the St. Brown took a step backwards last season, catching only seven passes while falling further down the team's wide receiver pecking order. If St. Brown clears […]

Jaguars Waive Laquon Treadwell

Former Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laquon Treadwell is set to be waived, per Jamal St. Cyr of News4Jax. Treadwell, a former first-round draft choice of the Minnesota Vikings, has struggled to find opportunities at the NFL level over the last few seasons. Treadwell's release bodes well for Collin Johnson, and to a lesser extent, Tavon […]

KhaDarel Hodge Released By Browns

The Cleveland Browns released wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge on Tuesday, ending the wideout's two-year tenure with the team. Hodge turned in a solid preseason, posting two touchdowns over Cleveland's three games. The veteran may not be without a job for long as the Cleveland Plain Dealer is reporting that the team would like to bring […]

Bears Waive Ryan Nall

The Chicago Bears have waived running back Ryan Nall. The 25-year-old caught eight passes for 67 yards with one touchdown last season but is known mostly for his solid play on special teams. The Bears have now cut a player who they have counted on the last two seasons on special teams (Nall) and a […]

Chargers Waive Tyron Johnson; Guyton, Palmer To See More Snaps

The Los Angeles Chargers waived wide receiver Tyron Johnson on Tuesday. In a head-scratching move, Johnson was released, paving the way for wideouts Jalen Guyton and Joshua Palmer to see extended snaps. Johnson put up team-best numbers in the preseason finale, securing four of his nine targets for 41 yards. It is unclear whether another team will sign […]

Riley Ridley Cut By Bears

Chicago Bears wide receiver Riley Ridley has been waived by the Bears. The former fourth-round pick failed to make a lasting impression during training camp and the Bears are moving on. Ridley, Calvin's brother, has only 10 career receptions in two NFL seasons and will have to look to hook on with another team to […]

Chris Herndon Traded To Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings have traded for the Jets tight end Chris Herndon in exchange for draft compensation. With the Vikings TE1 Irv Smith Jr. on the shelf for at least a month the Vikings moved quickly to replenish their tight end depth chart. Herndon has plenty of potential but has yet to fully put it […]

Jaguars Release Phillip Dorsett II

Former Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Phillip Dorsett II was released on Tuesday. Dorsett's release is surprising, to say the least, as he was expected to provide a vertical element within the offense as the team's fourth wideout. The speedster will likely get an opportunity with another receiver-needy team shortly, and Detroit is a possible landing […]

Jake Browning Waived, Kellen Mond Wins Backup Job

The Minnesota Vikings are waiving quarterback Jake Browning. In three preseason games, Browning completed 13-of-33 passes, throwing for 154 yards and one interception. Rookie Kellen Mond will be the backup for Kirk Cousins as of right now, though the Vikings may still be looking to sign another quarterback. During the preseason, Mond stood out, completing 28-of-51 […]

Dazz Newsome Waived

Chicago Bears wide receiver Dazz Newsome was waived by the team on Tuesday. The sixth-round rookie not making the Week 1 roster is a surprise despite reports that the team will try and sign him to the practice roster. Newsome enjoyed a solid offseason but broke his collarbone at the end of mini-camp and was […]

Pooka Williams Jr. Waived By Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals waived rookie running back Pooka Williams Jr. on Tuesday. According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, the team is hoping that Williams clears waivers so that they can sign him to their practice squad. Williams is an undrafted rookie out of the University of Kansas. He's 5'10" and he ran a 4.36 40-yard […]

Anthony Rizzo Batting .333 Over His Last Five Games

New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo has been swinging the bat well over his last five contests. Rizzo is 6-for-18 with five runs scored, two doubles, and two RBI in that span, a welcome stretch after he labored through a 1-for-18 slump that dates back to his initial return from the COVID-19 injured list.
