Tejay Antone Placed On Injured List

The Cincinnati Reds placed relief pitcher Tejay Antone (forearm) on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday due to a right forearm strain.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. suffered an AC joint sprain in Monday's preseason contest against the Saints. The injury is considered to be minor at this point in time.

James Robinson To Be "Certified Centerpiece Of Offense"

Jacksonville Jaguars second-year running back James Robinson projects for a heavy workload this season following news that Travis Etienne Jr. is out for the season due to foot surgery.

Chad Beebe Could Be On The Bubble

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Chad Beebe may need to produce in the team's final preseason game to lock in a roster spot for this season.

Teddy Bridgewater Named Broncos Starting Quarterback

The Denver Broncos have named Teddy Bridgewater the team's starting quarterback. Bridgewater has been in a quarterback competition with Drew Lock this offseason.

Erik Van Rooyen Will Disappoint at BMW Championship

While Erik Van Rooyen is coming off an impressive seventh-place finish last week at the BMW Championship, there were a a lot of smoke and mirrors to that performance. Van Rooyen gained 0.1 strokes ball-striking, and 8.7 strokes short game and putting. It's certainly safe to say that his putter will regress this week. While […]
