The Minnesota Vikings aren't releasing wide receiver Stefon Diggs, although they could get calls from other teams to see if they are interested in trading him.

Browns To Work On Baker Mayfield's Footwork

Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said the team will be changing some things in quarterback Baker Mayfield's footwork this offseason "to help him."

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (shoulder) is taking live batting practice on Wednesday.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (shoulder) is playing light catch on Wednesday.
