Broncos Sign Shelby Harris, Decline Option On Kareem Jackson

The Denver Broncos re-signed defensive tackle Shelby Harris to a three-year deal worth $27 million on Monday.

Broncos Place Low-Round Tender On Phillip Lindsay

The Denver Broncos placed the low-round tender on restricted free-agent running back Phillip Lindsay. Another team can sign Lindsay to an offer sheet if Denver doesn't match it, and Lindsay's departure would leave the Broncos without draft-pick compensation. The low-round tender is worth $2.133 million in 2021, so there's a high probability that Lindsay moves […]

New York Yankees third baseman Gio Urshela started at shortstop on Tuesday and went 2-for-2 with a walk against the Tigers.

Davis Bertans Could Miss Wednesday's Game

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (knee, calf) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings.
