New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson has been rehabbing his right knee at the team's facility during the league shutdown.

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney underwent successful core muscle surgery on Tuesday.

Ke'Shawn Vaughn To Be Pass-Catching Back?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers aren't sold on running back Ronald Jones II as a pass-catching back for quarterback Tom Brady, so there will be added pressure on rookie third-rounder Ke'Shawn Vaughn to learn the protection schemes in an abbreviated offseason.

Tre'Quan Smith, Josh Hill Will Have Roles

New Orleans Saints tight end Josh Hill will play more than expected in 2020, in the opinion of NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal.

Carolina Panthers fourth-round rookie cornerback Troy Pride Jr. and special teams player Corn Elder are both strong options to start in 2020 for the team's secondary.
