Tennessee Titans running back Brian Hill (undisclosed) landed on the injured reserve on Sunday. It's unknown why he currently occupies space on the IR.

Chicago Cubs first baseman Frank Schwindel went 1-for-4 in Sunday's blowout loss against the Chicago White Sox.

Ryan Fitzpatrick Starting In Week 1 And Beyond

Washington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was officially named the starter for the Week 1 opener against the visiting Chargers.

A.J. Rose Jr. Continues To Fight For Roster Spot

Minnesota Vikings running back A.J. Rose Jr. had six carries for 41 yards and two touchdowns versus the Kansas City Chiefs.

However, he's made a compelling case to […]

Davis Mills Throws Three Picks

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills went 10-for-27 for 106 yards and two touchdowns to go along with three interceptions during the preseason matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Ronald Jones II Collects 27 Yards On Four Carries

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II had four rush attempts for 27 yards against the Houston Texans. Jones is in a battle with Leonard Fournette for the starting gig, and regardless of who wins, they'll surely still split carries.

Kevin Love Not Interested In A Buyout

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love isn't interested in a buyout from his current employer.

Love dealt with […]

He finished […]
