Colts Draft Mike Strachan

With the first pick of the seventh round of the 2021 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts have drafted Charleston wide receiver Mike Strachan. He had 27 touchdowns in his two seasons as a starter with the team, but it's always hard to know how a Division II player will adjust to the NFL. He's got […]

Filip Gustavsson Makes Fourth Career Start On Saturday

Ottawa Senators goaltender Filip Gustavsson will get his fourth career start on Saturday against Montreal. Matt Murray (lower body) recently made an impressive return from injury with multiple shutouts but he's out again and Anton Forsberg (lower body) hasn't traveled to Montreal either. Gustavsson has been pretty solid so far with a 2-1-1 record, giving […]

Chicago Bears Draft Dazz Newsome

With the 221st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears have selected North Carolina wide receiver Dazz Newsome. A 1,000 yard receiver in 2019, Newsome has 16 receiving touchdowns over the past two seasons. He's undersized, but has appeal as a slot project at the next level. Chicago could use some help at […]

Broncos Add Auburn Receiver Seth Williams

With the 219th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos have selected Auburn wide receiver Seth Williams. Williams is coming off of a 47-catch, 760-yard 2020 season that saw him catch four touchdowns. He's led the team in receiving two years in a row. He's not the most consistent receiver in the world, […]

Patrik Laine Misses Saturday's Outing With Illness

Columbus Blue Jackets winger Patrik Laine (illness) isn't feeling well enough to play on Saturday. The team has activated Emil Bemstrom (lower body) from Injured Reserve to take his spot in the lineup. Laine's season hasn't gone according to play as he boasts only 12 goals and 21 points through 42 outings with an awful […]

Colts Take Sam Ehlinger

With the 218th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts have selected Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger. He'll compete with Jacob Eason for the backup job and could benefit even more if the Carson Wentz era doesn't go like the Colts want it to. Last year, Ehlinger completed 60.3 percent of his passes for […]

Alex Nedeljkovic Likely Starting On Saturday

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic looks set to earn his 21st start of the season on Saturday versus Columbus. The 25-year-old will be going for his 14th win of the campaign.

Bears Draft Running Back Khalil Herbert

With the 217th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears have selected Virginia Tech running back Khalil Herbert. Herbert is an appealing prospect who had 1,182 rushing yards last season.

Brian Elliott Looks For Revenge Versus New Jersey

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Brian Elliott, who lost his last start 6-4 versus New Jersey, will get a chance to go for revenge against the Devils on Saturday. The veteran suffered his first loss in three outings in the matchup on Tuesday. Elliott has been in inconsistent form throughout the campaign with a 13-7-2 record. He […]

Browns Draft Demetric Felton

With the 211th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns have drafted UCLA wide receiver Demetric Felton. The Pac 12 leader in all-purpose yards last year, Felton is a versatile option who can play anywhere on the field. He's got some nice acceleration that could allow him to make plays out of the […]

Jaguars Take Jalen Camp

With the 209th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars have selected Georgia Tech wide receiver Jalen Camp. Camp never had more than 29 catches in a season at Georgia Tech and struggles as a route runner, but there's some appeal here because of his combination of size and speed. He could be […]

Alexandar Georgiev In Rangers Net On Saturday

New York Rangers goaltender Alexandar Georgiev will start for the team on Saturday as the Blueshirts will battle with the Islanders once more. Igor Shesterkin and the Rangers got shut out by their neighbors on Thursday in a 4-0 loss. Georgiev hasn't yet lost to the Islanders in two outings this season, killing it with […]

With the 205th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans have selected LSU wide receiver Racey McMath. McMath is the second Day 3 receiver for Tennessee following the drafting of Dez Fitzpatrick earlier in the day. McMath doesn't have much of a track record at LSU, but he was mired behind a lot […]

Panthers Take Shi Smith

With the 204th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers have selected South Carolina wide receiver Shi Smith. Smith's a bit of a steal at this point, as he's a tough receiver who adds a physical element to the Panthers. He's coming off a 2020 campaign that saw him catch 57 passes for […]

Bills Draft Marquez Stevenson

With the 203rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills have selected Houston wide receiver Marquez Stevenson. Stevenson led the Cougars in receiving twice during his time in Houston, including 2018, when he caught 75 passes for 1,019 yards and nine touchdowns. Stevenson's big strength is his speed, which could pair nicely with […]

Franmil Reyes Is a League-Winner Hidden In Plain Sight

The San Diego Padres signed Franmil Reyes to their organization all the way back in November of 2011. It took the Padres almost eight years and a season-and-a-half of playing time to move on from him, as they opted to include him in the Trevor Bauer/Yasiel Puig/Taylor Trammell three-team trade that included the Indians and […]

Bengals Select Running Back Chris Evans

With the 202nd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals have selected Michigan running back Chris Evans. The former Wolverine had just 16 carries for 73 yards last season and last saw serious work back in 2018, so there's a lot of concern here in terms of what Evans can be at the […]

Chargers Draft Larry Rountree III

With the 198th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Chargers have selected Missouri running back Larry Rountree III. He joins a Chargers backfield headed by Austin Ekeler but that has some room for someone to do some early-down work for the team. He saw 209 carries last season to just 15 receptions, […]

Kyle Zimmer Considered Week-To-Week

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher Kyle Zimmer (shoulder) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. The righty is currently dealing with a strain in his right trapezius, although fortunately, the injury is affecting his non-throwing arm.

Giants Take Gary Brightwell In Sixth Round

With the 196th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New York Giants drafted Arizona running back Gary Brightwell. Arizona's rushing leader last season, Brightwell's numbers don't pop much on paper, but he's spent time in his career as a slot receiver and could see some passing down work. But with Saquon Barkley as the […]

49ers Draft Running Back Elijah Mitchell

With the 194th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers selected Lousiana running back Elijah Mitchell. This is the second running back picked by the 49ers in this draft after Ohio State's Trey Sermon in the third round.

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Omar Narvaez (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list.

Bogdan Bogdanovic, Kevin Huerter Questionable On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) and small forward Kevin Huerter (shoulder) have both earned questionable designations for Saturday's game against Chicago.

Even with Trae Young back from an ankle injury, […]

J.T. Realmuto To Miss Another One On Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (hand) will not play on Saturday against the Mets.

Nikola Vucevic, Lauri Markkanen Questionable For Saturday

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (adductor) and power forward Lauri Markkanen (illness) both have their statuses up in the air for Saturday's game versus Atlanta.

Terrence Ross, James Ennis III Will Miss Saturday’s Game

Orlando Magic shooting guard/small forward Terrence Ross (back) and small/power forward James Ennis III (calf) have both been ruled out for Saturday's contest against Memphis.
