William Byron of Hendrick Motorsports finished in third place for the Pennzoil 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday. The No. 24 Chevrolet driver first started the race from ninth, but quietly gained a few positions in the first stage. By the end of the stage, he made it to sixth and earned five stage points. In the second stage, Byron made it to the top five and helped his teammate Kyle Larson obtain the lead. He eventually got by Christopher Bell and then, in the closing laps of the second stage, passed Larson and went on to win the second stage. In the final stage, Byron began by fighting with Larson for the lead and eventually getting ahead of him for a couple of laps, until Denny Hamlin made it to the front and passed Byron. From there, Byron never saw the lead again, but ran most of the race inside the top five and kept his car clean until he eventually finished third behind Hamlin and his other teammate, Chase Elliott. This was Byron's best Las Vegas Cup finish since his win at the site in March 2023, and he is now seventh in the regular-season standings after five races.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller

Free-agent running back Jeremy McNichols is re-signing with the Washington Nationals on an undisclosed one-year deal on Monday, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Washington's current backfield includes McNichols, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Rachaad White, and Jerome Ford. In his second year with Washington in 2025, McNichols saw 44 carries for 221 yards and one rushing touchdown in 17 games (one start), adding 25 receptions on 31 targets for 196 yards through the air. The 30-year-old veteran was also a key special teams contributor in addition to his depth role in the Commanders' backfield. The offseason additions of both White and Ford, who are both capable pass-catchers, is bad news for McNichols as he heads into his third year in D.C. At best, the former fifth-round pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2017 out of Boise State will be a deep-league stash at RB. McNichols had a career-high 261 rushing yards and four touchdowns for the Commanders in his first year with the team in 2024.--Keith Hernandez

Joe Gibbs Racing's Christopher Bell was highly competitive and was one of the top drivers in Sunday's Pennzoil 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but did not get the victory. Bell started the race at the front in the pole position, but quickly lost the lead to his teammate Denny Hamlin after the opening two laps. He then lost further positions to his other teammate, Ty Gibbs, and Kyle Larson before the first round of green flag pit stops. From there, the No. 20 team improved the car, and Bell returned to the lead and never looked back for the rest of the stage, winning and nabbing 10 stage points. In the second stage, Bell ran inside the top five throughout most of the stage. Although he challenged Larson and William Byron for the lead at a few points, Bell could not keep up and ended the stage in third. In the final stage, Bell continued to run in the top five, and although there were a few points where he was competing for the lead, he could not keep up with Hamlin, Chase Elliott, and William Byron, settling for fourth place by the end of the race. This was Bell's third consecutive top-5 result of the season and now sits sixth in regular-season points after five races.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller

Across 59 innings with the Los Angeles Angels in 2025, veteran relief pitcher Kenley Jansen recorded a 5-4 record with a 2.59 ERA, 0.95 WHIP, 57 strikeouts, and 29 saves. The 38-year-old landed a one-year deal with the Detroit Tigers this past winter, and looks like the favorite to open the year as the team's primary closer. While Jansen's top-line numbers remained strong in 2025, his strikeout rate dipped to a career-worst 24.4%, and he benefited from an 85.2% strand rate, well above his career average of 79.9%. In Detroit, he lands with an organization that has typically preferred to spread saves around to multiple players. Should Jansen falter, the Tigers also have a quality ninth-inning option waiting in the wings in Will Vest, who recorded 23 saves last season. Jansen's proven track record as one of the best closers of the 21st century should give him the leg up to begin the year, but he may have a short leash if his shaky underlying metrics from 2025 start to show up in his overall results in 2026.--Will Brady

Kyle Larson of Hendrick Motorsports finished in the seventh position for Sunday's Pennzoil 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Larson began the race from the fifth position with one of the fastest cars early on. The No. 5 Chevrolet driver went from fifth to finishing second at the end of the first stage behind Christopher Bell, scoring nine stage points. In the second stage, Larson made his way to the lead thanks to a push from his teammate William Byron. Larson eventually went on to lead 62 laps, the second-most of all drivers for the day, but lost out on the lead to Byron at the end of stage two. Nine more stage points were scored for Larson. Although Larson started the final stage in the lead thanks to winning the race off of pit road during the stage break, he quickly lost the lead again to Byron after a restart. Larson kept his car clean for the rest of the race, but it lacked the handling to keep up with the top competitors. The Hendrick driver placed seventh, earning his seventh consecutive top-10 finish at Las Vegas. Larson now sits eighth in the regular-season points standings after five races this year.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller

The Kansas City Chiefs are acquiring quarterback Justin Fields from the New York Jets on Monday in exchange for a sixth-round draft pick in 2027, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Other teams were interested in trading for Fields, but his preference was to go to Kansas City, where he'll be the backup for Patrick Mahomes (knee). Fields also dealt with a knee issue late last year, but he should be fully ready for offseason workouts and training camp this summer. If Mahomes were somehow not ready for the start of the 2026 regular season this fall while recovering from his torn ACL, Fields could be named the starter early on for KC. The 27-year-old former first-rounder has excellent rushing abilities, but he just hasn't progressed enough as a passer to take the next step in the NFL. Fields threw for 1,259 yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception last year in nine games for the Jets before being benched for veteran Tyrod Taylor. Landing with head coach Andy Reid in KC is an ideal landing spot for Fields, but he'll only see the field if Mahomes is injured.--Keith Hernandez

Boston Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman was utterly dominant in 2025, recording five wins, 32 saves, and 85 strikeouts across 61 1/3 innings while pitching to a 1.17 ERA and a 0.70 WHIP. Chapman has always been an excellent source of strikeouts, and he delivered with a 37.3% strikeout rate last year. The more surprising aspect of his profile was his massively improved command. After posting four consecutive seasons with a walk rate of at least 14.5%, the 38-year-old slashed his walk rate to 6.6% in 2025, by far the best mark of his 16-season MLB career. It seems likely that Chapman's walk rate will regress towards his career norm to some degree in 2026. Still, he can remain an elite fantasy closer even if he allows free passes to somewhere around 10% of the batters he faces. Barring a complete collapse in his skills in his age-38 season, Chapman should have a chance to provide high-end fantasy production for the second straight year.--Will Brady

Jose Delgado got back in the win column by beating UFC veteran Andre Fili via split decision on the main card of UFC Vegas 114 on Saturday. This was a back-and-forth fight that was a close one to call, but in the end, Delgado outstruck Fili in the second and third rounds, which was probably the reason why he emerged with the split-decision victory. In 15 minutes of action, Delgado landed a takedown and 94 significant strikes. With the win, Delgado improved to 11-2 as a pro and is now 3-1 in the UFC.--Alen Kurbasic

New York Yankees first baseman/catcher Ben Rice had a breakout season in 2025, slashing .255/.337/.499 with 26 home runs, 65 RBI, 74 runs scored, and three stolen bases across 530 plate appearances. The 27-year-old's underlying metrics fully supported his emergence, as he posted excellent barrel (15.4%) and hard-hit rates (55.8%). Rice is expected to be the Yankees' primary first baseman in 2026. Additionally, Rice also started 36 games behind the plate for the Yankees in 2025, giving him catcher eligibility across all fantasy formats in 2026 and massively boosting his value. However, New York also re-signed veteran first baseman Paul Goldschmidt over the offseason, which could eat into Rice's playing time against left-handed pitching. Rice posted a respectable .752 OPS against lefties in 2025, but Goldschmidt mashed southpaws to a .981 OPS. If Rice ends up sitting against left-handed starters, he may not end up logging enough playing time to fully justify his rising cost in drafts.--Will Brady

Oumar Sy suffered a first-round submission loss to Ion Cutelaba on the main card of UFC Vegas 114 on Saturday. It didn't take long for Cutelaba to take Sy down, and with less than a minute left in the fight, Sy left his neck exposed, which led to Cutelaba submitting him with a guillotine choke. In 4:24 of action, Sy landed only four significant strikes. With the loss, Sy dropped to 12-2 as a pro and is now 3-2 in the UFC. --Alen Kurbasic

Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr has the shortest odds to win the Heisman Trophy (+800) via FanDuel Sportsbook, and ESPN ranked Carr the No. 1 Power 4 quarterback entering 2026. This aligns with Notre Dame being one of the favorites to win the 2026 College Football Playoff National Championship. After a shaky first game as a starter against Miami in Week 1, Carr was excellent in 2025. Overall, he tallied 2,741 passing yards, 24 passing touchdowns, and six interceptions en route to a 10-2 debut record. While the Irish will have to replace key offensive weapons, Jeremiyah Love, Jadarian Price, Eli Raridon, and Malachi Fields, the program has been among the best high school and transfer portal recruiters in the country. Notre Dame is expected to be one of the premier teams in college football next season after just missing the College Football Playoff last year, and if that plays out, Carr's chances to be in New York at the end of the regular season are high.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

Georgia Tech transfer quarterback Aaron Philo followed his former offensive coordinator, Buster Faulkner, to Florida following two seasons together in Atlanta. While many view Philo as the favorite to win the Gators' starting quarterback job, it is an open competition, and redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr. is a threat to win the job. In eight game appearances with the Yellow Jackets, Philo completed 59 of his 102 passing attempts for 938 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions. He tallied 95 yards and one touchdown on the ground. He primarily backed up Haynes King, but he showed a few flashes in limited action. Jones Jr., a former three-star recruit brought in by Billy Napier, appeared in two games for the Gators last year and completed 21 passes for 191 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Florida's offense has been a disaster for most of the last few years, but it remains loaded with talent. Whoever wins Florida's quarterback job will work with stud running back Jadan Baugh and a fantastic trio of wideouts in Eric Singleton Jr., Vernell Brown III, and Dallas Wilson. With Faulkner calling plays, the offensive turnaround in Gainesville could be a quick one.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

After it was announced that Joey Aguilar would not be able to return as Tennessee's starting quarterback in 2026, attention turned to redshirt freshman George MacIntyre and true freshman Faizon Brandon as key players in the Volunteers' starting quarterback battle this Spring and Fall. Tennessee added Colorado quarterback Ryan Staub in the transfer portal, but it would be a surprise if he were named the starter over the two blue-chip recruits. MacIntyre, a four-star prospect in the Class of 2025, completed just seven passes for 69 yards in his first year in Knoxville, serving as the third-string quarterback. Brandon, a consensus five-star and top-three quarterback in the Class of 2026, is on campus and is set to compete right away when Tennessee begins spring practice on March 24. Neither player has meaningful college football experience, but MacIntyre likely has a leg up after a full year learning Josh Heupel's system, which has been known for taking some time to master. The Vols have consistently had one of the top offenses in the SEC under Heupel, but his 2026 starter figures to have the least experience of any of his quarterbacks on Rocky Top.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

Alabama began spring practice on March 13, and the biggest story to watch is the starting quarterback battle between redshirt junior Austin Mack and redshirt freshman Keelon Russell. Whoever wins the job has big shoes to fill after Ty Simpson led the Crimson Tide to the SEC Championship Game and a College Football Playoff win behind 3,567 passing yards, 28 touchdowns, and five interceptions. He thrived for most of the season despite Alabama lacking a true rushing attack. Mack has more experience and has worked under Kalen DeBoer and Ryan Grubb for longer, dating back to his time at Washington, but Russell is a former big-time recruit with elite athleticism. Mack might be the safer play, but Russell is viewed as having a higher ceiling. Alabama once again has one of the most talented rosters in college football, so DeBoer nailing the starting quarterback decision could be the difference between legitimately contending for a national championship or just being a fringe CFP contender.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid finished Sunday's 3-1 win against the Nashville Predators with three assists. Early in the game, McDavid helped Leon Draisaitl net a power-play goal, assisted Matt Savoie at even strength in the second period, and completed his hat trick of assists when Zach Hyman iced the game with an empty-net goal. The Oilers captain recorded his 61st career three-assist game, tying Bryan Trottier for the ninth most in NHL history. Seven of those efforts from McDavid have come this season, keeping him on pace for a 137-point campaign. In 66 appearances, McDavid has notched 37 goals and 77 assists. He's finished with multiple points seven times in his last 10 outings.--Taavi Pailk

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony already looks like a potential superstar. Through a limited sample of MLB action (plus plenty of minor league data and even some World Baseball Classic experience), Anthony has quickly shown that he can be an elite hitter at the plate with an everyday role in the Red Sox' lineup. The former second-round pick made his MLB debut last summer and played 71 games in the majors for Boston. He wasted no time making an impact, slashing .292/.396/.463 with eight home runs, a 13.2% walk rate, a 27.7% strikeout rate, and 140 wRC+. While his strikeout rate was a bit high, we're not too concerned, especially since the ball-in-play metrics are terrific and he was just a rookie last year. Anthony has continued to show signs of major upside this spring, going 7-for-22 with two homers, four walks, and five strikeouts in a prominent role for the United States in the World Baseball Classic. The 2026 ZiPS projections have Anthony listed at 18 home runs and 125 wRC+, but given how last year and this spring have gone, we'd be willing to bet on even greater production from the 21-year-old. He ranks as the #15 outfielder in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings for 2026.--Andersen Pickard

Toronto Maple Leafs center Bo Groulx bagged two goals, including the game-winning tally, in Sunday's 4-2 victory over the Minnesota Wild. Playing in only his fourth game of the season, the French forward popped up with a pair of goals within a six-minute span early in the second period. Groulx now boasts three goals in four games since making his Maple Leafs debut on March 10. Before getting the call from the big club, Groulx tallied 27 goals and 50 points in 54 AHL appearances. He clearly has some offensive talent, but it's unlikely Groulx will keep up his production level in the NHL for long, especially with his role being limited to the third line.--Taavi Pailk

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson netted two goals in Sunday's 7-4 victory over the San Jose Sharks, recording his seventh multi-goal outing of the campaign. Over the last 15 years, only Brady Tkachuk has had more multi-goal efforts in a single season with the Senators (nine in 2023-24). On Sunday, Batherson produced a power-play goal in the first period and recorded the game-winning tally during an even-strength situation in the third. He's trying to post his first 30-goal campaign and is now just three goals away. Meanwhile, Batherson only needs one more point to reach his fourth straight 60-point season. The 27-year-old is averaging over a point per game this month, so it shouldn't take long.--Taavi Pailk

Baltimore Orioles reliever Ryan Helsley is looking for a bounce-back campaign after posting disappointing results in 2025. Splitting time with the Cardinals and Mets last year, Helsley posted a 4.14 FIP with 10.13 K/9 and 4.02 BB/9 across 56 innings. While these weren't terrible numbers, it was still a subpar year relative to Helsley's standards, as he posted his worst FIP since 2020. The 31-year-old right-hander will look to get back on track as he plays for his third different team in less than 12 months. The Orioles gave him a two-year, $28 million contract that pencils him into the closer role. It's a familiar role for Helsley, who had 70 saves between 2024 and 2025, and it could result in him offering significant fantasy value on a potential contender this year. He currently ranks #9 among relief pitchers in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings for 2026.--Andersen Pickard

Seattle Kraken left wing Bobby McMann contributed a power-play goal and an even-strength assist during Sunday's 6-2 win over the Florida Panthers, giving him five points in two games since making his team debut. He is the first player in franchise history to record multiple points in each of his first two games. McMann debuted for the Kraken with two goals and one assist on Saturday night against the Vancouver Canucks. His production has gone through the roof, as McMann averaged only around 0.5 points per game during his time with the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 29-year-old is seeing top-line minutes and skates on the second power-play unit in Seattle.--Taavi Pailk

Minnesota Twins outfielder Trevor Larnach (side) was scratched from the lineup with left side soreness prior to Sunday's spring training game, according to Nick Nelson of Twins Daily. Manager David Shelton said the injury isn't currently serious enough to require imaging, but we wouldn't be surprised to see the organization exercise caution and keep him out of game action for a couple of days. Larnach stepped into an everyday role last year, slashing .250/.323/.404 across 142 games. He launched a career-high 17 home runs while posting a modest 9.3% walk rate and 21.5% strikeout rate. We expect Larnach to split time at designated hitter and the corner outfield spots in 2026, and he'll likely bat in the back half of the order.--Andersen Pickard

Montreal Canadiens Kirby Dach (upper body) couldn't finish Sunday's contest against the Anaheim Ducks after being injured on a high hit. Only minutes into the game, Dach was on the receiving end of a high hit from Ducks forward Jeffrey Viel, who wasn't penalized for the incident. Dach has registered 14 points (eight goals, six assists) and 43 hits in 32 appearances this season. He has missed a large part of the campaign due to a foot fracture. Zachary Bolduc, who exited the lineup on Sunday as a healthy scratch, is set to replace Dach if needed. Montreal will return to action on Tuesday in an Original Six matchup against the Boston Bruins.--Taavi Pailk

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Gavin Stone (shoulder) will begin playing catch next week, and he hopes to resume pitching from a mound within the next month, according to David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports. Stone has been shut down from throwing ever since he experienced a setback in his recovery earlier in spring training. The 27-year-old had been working his way back from a shoulder surgery that caused him to miss the entire 2025 season. While the setback took him out of the mix for an Opening Day roster spot, fans and fantasy managers should still be encouraged that Stone is recovering from the setback and continuing to make progress. The Dodgers would love to see him get back to his 2024 form, which included 25 starts, a 3.97 xERA, 7.44 K/9, and 2.37 BB/9.--Andersen Pickard

San Jose Sharks center Alexander Wennberg (upper body) doesn't have a return timeline, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports. The Swedish veteran sustained an upper-body injury in Saturday's win over Montreal and didn't play on Sunday night against Ottawa. Wennberg is having the second-best season of his 12-year NHL career, posting 43 points (13 goals, 30 assists) in 64 games. Philipp Kurashev took over as the third-line center on Sunday. Although Kurashev finished scoreless in a high-scoring 7-4 loss, he is quite productive when given the chance to play.

Boston Red Sox infielder Marcelo Mayer (knee) is "fine" and should return to the lineup on Tuesday, according to Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. Manager Alex Cora told McCaffrey that Mayer had left knee soreness start to bother him prior to first pitch on Sunday, so the team scratched him from the lineup. He'll remain out of the lineup on Monday before getting back into his regular routine as a starter on Tuesday. All in all, this is very good news, especially given Mayer's injury history. He has already had four significant injured list stints in the last three years, including a months-long absence that sidelined him from July 2025 through the end of the regular season. Now, to further complicate the situation, he's also on the edge of the roster bubble, and it remains unclear if he'll open the 2026 season at Triple-A or the majors. Boston has locked in Caleb Durbin as its starting third baseman, but second base remains an area of mystery, with Mayer and Isiah Kiner-Falefa the top names in the mix. The fact that Mayer will return to the lineup on Tuesday will give him a few more opportunities to compete for a roster spot before spring training concludes.--Andersen Pickard

Edmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) logged only 3:12 of ice time in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Nashville Predators, exiting the action after the first period. The German superstar was injured early in the game and tried to return, but he couldn't finish the contest. "He didn't feel right. He went off, he got checked out, felt like he could play on it," Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch said postgame. "The medical staff looked at him and they were comfortable with him trying it out. He went out and he just didn't feel quite right. The fact that the medical staff said it doesn't seem too bad and there's no immediate red flags, it tells me that it shouldn't be a really long injury." Luckily, Draisaitl appears to have avoided a serious injury, though he could still miss some action. Before exiting on Sunday, Draisaitl extended his point streak to nine games with a power-play goal.--Taavi Pailk

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. has officially taken over as the team's No. 1 tight end ahead of the 2026 season. This was inevitable with David Njoku essentially vowing he'd depart this offseason, but now that free agency has started, it's official. There are no signs of Njoku wanting to come back, and the Browns haven't brought in any significant players to replace him. As a result, Fannin is entrenched atop the depth chart after a spectacular rookie season. In his first taste of NFL action in 2025, he caught 72 of 107 targets for 731 yards and six touchdowns, ranking as the overall TE6 in full-PPR leagues. He managed to put together a very productive season despite facing competition from Njoku and catching passes from an uninspiring quarterback room. Now that he has proven that he can produce amid adversity, he'll have an even more favorable outlook as the Browns' clear-cut No. 1 tight end. Plus, quarterback Shedeur Sanders should play at least a little better in his second pro season, giving Fannin increased stability week over week. The buy-low window on Fannin has closed in dynasty leagues, but given that he's just 21 years old, managers can still consider trading for him at full price. He appears to have a long, successful career ahead of him, full of rich fantasy upside.--Andersen Pickard

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Max Strus (foot) returned for his season debut Sunday and finished with 24 points, eight rebounds, and one assist in 23 minutes against Dallas. The veteran wing looked comfortable immediately, knocking down six three-pointers on efficient shooting and potentially earning a larger role as his conditioning improves. His return could squeeze minutes for Keon Ellis and Jaylon Tyson, while Sam Merrill may also face added competition once healthy. Strus shapes up as a three-point streaming option with upside if his workload climbs during the fantasy playoffs.--Brian Dailisan

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin enjoyed a second-year breakout in 2025, but he's not stopping there. The 23-year-old Oregon product continues to trend upward, and he should have an even larger role in the Broncos' offense next season. As Denver continues to demonstrate the strengths of its offense, we expect that not only will Franklin see a consistently large dose of targets, but those targets will be valuable. In other words, he'll have the opportunity to make plays downfield and score touchdowns in this high-powered offense, rather than settle for lower-value receptions. For a better understanding of Franklin's floor, we can look at his 104 targets, 65 catches, 709 yards, and six touchdowns from 2025. He was the WR31 in PPR leagues, and there were several occasions where he out-produced Courtland Sutton. With Sutton getting older, we could see the Broncos make an effort to redistribute some of the veteran's workload to Franklin in 2026. That would bode well for his outlook in both redraft and dynasty leagues, ranking as a top-30 receiver option in both formats.--Andersen Pickard
