Brandon Woodruff Still TBD for Opening Day
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (lat) threw a four-inning simulated game in camp on Friday but said his status for Opening Day in late March is still to be determined, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The Brewers aren't taking any chances with Woodruff going into the 2026 season after he got a late start in 2025 while recovering from right-shoulder surgery, before suffering a right-lat strain late in the year. The 33-year-old veteran has already thrown two innings in a Cactus League game. His primary goal is to be healthy for the entire season, so don't be surprised if Woodruff isn't in the Opening Day starting rotation. Woodruff was still very strong last year with a 3.20 ERA and 0.91 WHIP despite diminished velocity, and he's proven in the past that he can be one of the better pitchers in baseball. Injury concerns make him a high-risk, high-reward option in fantasy drafts this year with a ceiling of a SP2.

Tyler Conklin Signs One-Year Deal With Lions
Free-agent tight end Tyler Conklin is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Detroit Lions on Friday, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. Conklin will join the Lions, his fourth different team, for his ninth NFL campaign in 2026. The 30-year-old veteran played for the Los Angeles Chargers last year and caught only seven of his 10 targets for 101 yards and no touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (five starts) as a depth option. The former fifth-round pick (157th overall) by the Minnesota Vikings in 2018 out of Central Michigan will likely be in a depth role again in his move to Motown, behind both Sam LaPorta (back) and Brock Wright (neck), leaving him avoidable in all fantasy football leagues. Conklin had a career-high 621 receiving yards in 2023 with the New York Jets, and he's never scored more than four times in a single season. He's caught a total of 270 passes in his career for 2,645 yards and 11 touchdowns across his eight seasons.

Panthers Add Left Tackle Rasheed Walker on One-Year Deal
The Carolina Panthers are signing former Green Bay Packers left tackle Rasheed Walker to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Walker was one of the top free agents still on the open market. The 26-year-old was drafted in the seventh round (249th overall) by Green Bay back in 2022 out of Penn State. He has started 48 of the 52 games he's appeared in over his four years in the NFL, and he'll now head to the NFC South to give the Panthers another experienced left-tackle option in case Ikem Ekwonu (knee) isn't ready for the start of the 2026 regular season this fall after he tore the patellar tendon in his knee in the Wild-Card loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the postseason. Walker was the Packers' starting left tackle in 2025 and played in all 1,057 of their offensive snaps.

Cardinals Re-Sign Receiver Simi Fehoko to One-Year Deal
The Arizona Cardinals re-signed wide receiver Simi Fehoko (wrist) to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. Fehoko didn't play behind Week 10 last year after suffering a wrist injury. The 28-year-old finished his fifth year in the league (first with Arizona) with no catches on no targets despite appearing in eight games for the Cardinals. The former fifth-round selection by the Dallas Cowboys in 2021 out of Stanford played just 37 offense snaps and 116 special teams snaps. In his five years in the NFL, Fehoko hasn't seen many opportunities as a pass-catcher, hauling in 10 of 22 targets for 139 yards and one touchdown in 32 games (two starts). He will return to the desert to provide WR depth behind Marvin Harrison Jr., Michael Wilson, and Kendrick Bourne. Fehoko can be ignored in all fantasy football formats.

Commanders Signing Van Jefferson on Friday
The Washington Commanders are signing veteran free-agent wide receiver Van Jefferson (forearm) to an undisclosed deal on Friday, a source told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Even though it's wide open right now behind WR1 Terry McLaurin in D.C., the 29-year-old Jefferson will most likely serve as a depth option for the Commanders in 2026. The team also brought back Dyami Brown on Friday after he spent his first four seasons with Washington. Jefferson ended last year on Injured Reserve due to a forearm injury. Before his injury, the former second-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2020 caught 29 of his 52 targets for 350 yards and one touchdown in 16 games (seven starts) with the Tennessee Titans. Jefferson's career year in 2021 with the Rams in his second year in the league has been the outlier, as he hasn't come anywhere close to the 802 receiving yards and six TDs he had that season. The Commanders are likely to bring in more receiving help via free agency and the draft, which would push Jefferson further down the WR depth chart.

Commanders Bring Back Dyami Brown on One-Year Deal
The Washington Commanders are bringing free-agent wide receiver Dyami Brown back on an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, a source told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Brown will return to D.C. after he was drafted by Washington in the third round (82nd overall) in 2021 out of North Carolina. He had 59 catches on 102 targets for 784 yards and four touchdowns in 63 games (10 starts) in his first four years in the league with the Commanders before joining the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. In 14 regular-season contests (six starts) with the Jags last year, the 26-year-old pass-catcher had a 20-227-1 line on 37 targets. The Commanders are pretty desperate for WR options at the moment behind Terry McLaurin, with Deebo Samuel Sr., Noah Brown, and Chris Moore all on the open market. The team also signed veteran Van Jefferson on Friday, but Brown is better suited to potentially become Washington's No. 2 receiver in 2026, barring more additions in free agency or the draft.

Patriots, Rams Making "Strong Pushes" to Acquire A.J. Brown
The New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams are "making strong pushes" to land Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown in a trade, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. No deals have been agreed to as negotiations continue, but both teams continue to "show heavy interest." The Pats continue to show interest in Brown despite signing Green Bay Packers wideout Romeo Doubs, while the Rams are still interested despite already sending a first-round pick and other draft capital to the Kansas City Chiefs last week for cornerback Trent McDuffie. The Eagles don't have a ton of incentive to trade Brown, who has four straight 1,000-yard seasons, and they've reportedly been asking for a first-round pick and then some. Eagles GM Howie Roseman "won't part with a great player for nothing." For fantasy purposes, managers with Brown in dynasty/keeper leagues surely hope he isn't dealt to the Rams, where he'd be competing for targets with Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Maxx Crosby Plans to be "200 Percent Ready" by Training Camp
After the Baltimore Ravens backed out of a blockbuster trade earlier this week to acquire Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby (knee), the 28-year-old defensive end said that by training camp, he's going to be "200% ready" and the world will get the "best version" of himself, per NFL Network's Gerald McCoy on Good Morning Football. Crosby had surgery to fix the meniscus in his knee in January, which likely contributed to Baltimore getting cold feet, but he apparently plans to be a full-go by this summer for either the Raiders or another team that wants to give up two first-round picks for him. Already one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL, who has been very durable in his career, the nixed trade to the Ravens might have lit a fire under Crosby. Right now, the five-time Pro Bowler says he's fully committed to the Ravens and has already been at the team's facilities. The former fourth-rounder has 69.5 sacks in his seven NFL seasons and has double-digit sacks in three of the last four years. Crosby will remain a high-end defensive line target in IDP leagues in 2026.

Can Robert Garcia Take Over the Full-Time Closer Role in Texas?
Across 64 innings in 2025, Texas Rangers relief pitcher Robert Garcia pitched to a 4-8 record with a 2.95 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 68 strikeouts, and nine saves. The 29-year-old left-hander owns a solid 27.2% strikeout rate for his career with a manageable 7.7% walk rate to boot. Garcia ended 2025 tied for the Rangers' team lead in saves with Shawn Armstrong and Luke Jackson, both of whom are no longer with the organization. As a result, Garcia could be in line to assume the club's primary closer role in 2026. Additionally, Texas recently designated free agent signee Alexis Diaz for assignment, who may have been the most experienced closer the team had in camp. If Garcia pitches well in the early portion of the season, he could conceivably grab hold of the ninth-inning role in a Rangers bullpen that currently appears light on quality alternatives. Fantasy managers may want to target Garcia as a mid-round saves option in upcoming drafts before Opening Day.

"No Starters Right Now" for Atlanta's Quarterback Situation
Atlanta Falcons general manager Ian Cunningham said that new quarterback Tua Tagovailoa knows "he is coming in to compete," with the same being said about Michael Penix Jr. (knee), according to Tori McElhaney of AtlantaFalcons.com. "There are no starters right now," Cunningham added. The problem with Atlanta's QB competition this offseason is that Penix could be rehabbing for the vast majority, if not all, of the offseason after he suffered a torn ACL late in 2025. That could give Tua, who signed a one-year, $1.3 million contract with Atlanta, a leg up for the starting job entering the 2026 regular season this fall. The 28-year-old former first-rounder is injury-prone himself, though, and has had two straight disappointing seasons after leading the NFL with 4,624 passing yards in Miami in 2023. Both Tagovailoa and Penix have seen their dynasty stock fall in the past year. For Penix, it's mainly due to his knees; he's had three ACL surgeries now. If Tagaovailoa wins the job, he could be an interesting low-end QB2 with upside in a change of scenery and in an offense with some nice weapons.

Ketel Marte Remains an Elite Second Base Option Heading into 2026
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte was the subject of trade discussions early this offseason, but ultimately did not end up being moved and will suit up for his 10th season in Arizona in 2026. Marte has firmly established himself as one of the best second basemen in baseball, hitting .283/.376/.517 with 28 home runs, 72 RBI, 87 runs scored, and four stolen bases across 556 plate appearances in 2025. He's posted a walk rate of at least 10.9% in each of the last three seasons and boosted his barrel rate to a career-high 13.5% in 2025. Marte has not reached double-digit steals in a season since 2019, so he does not project as a major speed asset for fantasy managers. He also comes with a spotty track record of health, reaching 600 plate appearances just twice since 2016. Still, the 32-year-old elite production when on the field and profiles as a high-end fantasy second baseman heading into 2026.

Colts Re-Sign Drew Ogletree to One-Year Deal
The Indianapolis Colts re-signed tight end Drew Ogletree to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, league sources told James Boyd of The Athletic. The former sixth-round pick in 2022 out of Youngstown State missed his entire rookie season due to a torn ACL in his knee. Since then, he has had four touchdown catches in three years and has mostly been used as a blocker on offense. Ogletree has a total of 22 catches for 283 yards and four touchdowns on 41 targets in his three seasons played in Indianapolis. Last year was his worst stat-wise, as the 27-year-old caught just four passes on six targets for 27 yards and one touchdown in 15 games (five starts). Ogletree isn't even a stash option in dynasty/keeper leagues and could be the TE4 for the Colts going into next season, behind Tyler Warren, Will Mallory, and Sean McKeon.

Logan Henderson Could Return to Spring Training Action this Weekend
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that right-hander Logan Henderson (elbow) is "back on track" and could pitch in a Spring Training game this weekend, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Henderson experienced some elbow soreness in early March, but it appears that he and the Brewers may have avoided a serious injury. The 24-year-old made his MLB debut in 2025, recording a 3-0 record with a 1.78 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and 33 strikeouts across 25 1/3 innings (five starts). Milwaukee's enviable starting pitching depth and his minor spring injury setback could leave Henderson on the outside looking in of the Opening Day rotation. However, he should have a chance to open the year healthy, and he will almost certainly have an opportunity to work his way back to the big leagues at some point this season. Fantasy managers in deep leagues may want to swoop in on Henderson now at a relative low point in his value heading into 2026.

Titans Releasing L'Jarius Sneed on Friday
The Tennessee Titans are releasing cornerback L'Jarius Sneed on Friday, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The move will save the Titans $11.4 million against this year's salary cap. Sneed will now be a free agent and can sign with any team. After spending his first four seasons in the NFL with the Kansas City Chiefs, Sneed joined the Titans in 2024. The 29-year-old defensive back only ended up playing in 12 games the last two years in Nashville, though, due to injuries. In his 12 games, he had 49 tackles (37 solo) and three pass breakups. Sneed ended up being a bust for the Titans' defense after he signed a four-year, $76.4 million deal with the Titans in March of 2024. He had developed into a top cornerback in his time with the Chiefs, so another team in need of cornerback help is sure to pounce on Sneed as long as he's healthy. Sneed averaged three interceptions and 66.5 solo tackles in his four years in KC.

Shane Bieber Getting Closer to Throwing Off a Mound?
MLB.com's Keegan Matheson reports that the Toronto Blue Jays plan to keep starting pitcher Shane Bieber (forearm) on his normal throwing schedule for the "next few days" before seeing if he's ready to throw off a mound for the first time "a week from now." Bieber dealt with right forearm fatigue late in Toronto's 2025 postseason run, which will lead to him starting 2026 on the Injured List. The 30-year-old underwent Tommy John surgery in April 2024 that kept him sidelined until late August 2025. Bieber pitched well across 40 1/3 innings (seven starts) for the Blue Jays upon his return to the mound, recording a 4-2 record with a 3.57 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 37 strikeouts. If he can work his way back to full health, Bieber could re-emerge as a fantasy-relevant starting pitcher in 2026. However, he remains without a firm return timeline and has to be considered a major health risk, given that he has not made more than 21 starts in a season since 2022.

Buccaneers Re-Sign Ko Kieft for Tight End Depth
Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht announced on Friday that the team agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal to bring tight end Ko Kieft (leg) back for the 2026 season. Kieft suffered a leg injury in Week 3 of last season and never played again. The 28-year-old former sixth-round selection by the Bucs out of Minnesota in 2022 has played for the team the last four years, catching only eight passes on 15 targets for 82 yards and two touchdowns. Both of his scores came in his first two years in the league. Kieft will return to Tampa for a fifth season, but he won't be anywhere on the fantasy football radar. He will most likely enter the 2026 regular season this fall as the TE3 behind both Cade Otton and Payne Durham. Kieft's best year was his rookie campaign in 2022, when he had seven catches for 80 yards and a touchdown. He hasn't caught a pass since 2023.

Rangers Designate Alexis Diaz for Assignment
The Texas Rangers have designated relief pitcher Alexis Diaz for assignment, per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com. Diaz served as the primary closer for the Cincinnati Reds in 2023 and 2024, collecting 65 total saves and 141 strikeouts across 123 2/3 innings. However, the right-hander struggled mightily in 2025, posting an 8.15 ERA across 17 2/3 innings split between the Reds, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Atlanta Braves. Texas took a flyer on Diaz by signing him to a one-year deal in free agency, but the Rangers have apparently decided to bail out early on the 28-year-old. Diaz looked completely lost in his three Spring Training appearances for Texas, walking four and allowing eight earned runs across 1 2/3 innings pitched. The former closer will now either accept an outright assignment to the Minor Leagues or search for a new home as he looks to resurrect his MLB career.

Jalen Tolbert Signing One-Year Deal With Dolphins
Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins on Friday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Miami's new quarterback, Malik Willis, was Tolbert's QB at the Senior Bowl when they were entering the league, and they are close friends. The versatile 27-year-old pass-catcher had over 1,000 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns with Dallas in his four seasons with the team. Tolbert's big season came in 2024 before George Pickens arrived, when he caught 49 of his 79 targets for a career-high 610 yards and seven touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. The former third-rounder in 2022 out of South Alabama only had 18 grabs last year for 203 yards and one touchdown on 34 targets. With Tyreek Hill leaving South Beach, Tolbert will have a prime opportunity to become the Dolphins' new WR2 behind Jaylen Waddle, barring any additions to the WR room in the draft. Tolbert could be shaping up as a late-round sleeper target in fantasy football, especially if his chemistry with Willis is strong.

Jaleel McLaughlin Returns to Denver on One-Year Deal
The Denver Broncos agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday to re-sign running back Jaleel McLaughlin, a source told Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. In addition to McLaughlin, the Broncos already brought back J.K. Dobbins (foot), so they'll have a very similar backfield going into the 2026 campaign, depending on what they do in April's NFL draft. The 25-year-old had a career-low 37 carries last year for 187 yards and one touchdown in eight regular-season games, even with Dobbins suffering a season-ending foot injury halfway through the year. The Broncos also have last year's second-rounder, RJ Harvey, who could have an even bigger role next to Dobbins next season. Unless injuries strike one of Dobbins or Harvey in 2026, McLaughlin probably isn't going to see the field all that often and could be a healthy scratch on game days more often than not. His dynasty/keeper stock is quickly plummeting.

Trevor Rogers to Start on Opening Day for Orioles
Baltimore Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers will get the nod on Opening Day this year for the team, manager Craig Albernaz told Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun. Rogers will take the hill to get things kicked off on March 26 against the Minnesota Twins. The 28-year-old southpaw was traded from the Miami Marlins to Baltimore in the middle of the 2024 season and struggled so much with the O's that he was sent to the minors. 2025 was a different story for Rogers, though, as he went 9-3 with a 1.81 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, and 103:29 K:BB in 109 2/3 innings pitched over his 18 starts for the team. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect similar numbers in 2026 if Rogers can pitch for a full season, but he showed last year that he still has plenty left in the tank. He's worth considering as a No. 4 or 5 starter later in fantasy drafts with the upside to be a SP2 if everything goes right. In his season debut against the Twins, Rogers will be a cheap DFS play in a good matchup.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Expected to be Out Until at Least Mid-April
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (knee) is expected to be out until at least mid-April after having surgery to fix a torn ACL in his knee, according to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com. Gurriel has already said that he's hopeful to be ready for Opening Day at the end of March, but the D-backs have other plans and plan to bring him along a bit more slowly. Still, the 32-year-old veteran is making excellent progress, and he could even serve as a designated hitter in Cactus League games before the end of spring training. With Gurriel set to open the 2026 regular season on the injured list, Jordan Lawlar is "all but certain" to make the Opening Day roster and get regular playing time for the Snakes. When Gurriel does return, he'll provide the D-backs with a platoon bat in left field. He has a three-year streak of 75-plus RBI, but Gurriel is undraftable in shallow mixed redraft leagues coming off the torn ACL that he suffered in the final month of last season.

Jose Berrios to Visit With a Doctor on Tuesday
Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berrios (elbow), who is dealing with right-elbow inflammation, will go to Texas for an in-person assessment with Dr. Keith Meister on Tuesday, according to Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet. Berrios will not throw before then. The 31-year-old also dealt with elbow inflammation and a biceps injury late last season. This isn't a good sign for a veteran pitcher with a ton of tread already on his tires. He had made three appearances in the Grapefruit League in spring training, posting a 3.38 ERA with seven strikeouts and four walks in 10 2/3 innings pitched. Berrios, a 10-year MLB vet, went 9-5 last year in his fourth full season with the Jays, posting a 4.17 ERA (4.65 FIP) and 1.30 WHIP with 138 K's and 56 walks in 166 innings over 31 regular-season outings (30 starts). The two-time All-Star was a depth starter in mixed fantasy leagues before more elbow issues cropped up. Until we know more, it's probably best to avoid Berrios in upcoming drafts.

Arnold Ebiketie Reaches One-Year Deal With Eagles
Free-agent linebacker Arnold Ebiketie signed a one-year deal worth a maximum of $7.3 million with the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, his agent told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The deal includes $4.3 million in guarantees. Ebiketie will help the Eagles' pass rush after they lost edge rusher Jaelan Phillips to the Carolina Panthers in free agency this week. The 27-year-old had a career-worst two sacks last year with the Atlanta Falcons as he became a rotational pass-rusher. Despite his low sack total, he was 10th in the NFL in quarterback pressure rate (16.4%) among players with at least 150 pass-rush snaps, according to Next Gen Stats. Ebiketie led Atlanta with six sacks in 2024 and also had six sacks in 2023. He was selected in the second round by the Falcons in 2022 out of Penn State. Ebiketie will certainly give Philly more pass-rush help, and he could be used more often than he was by the Falcons last year.

Abner Uribe to Take Over the Closer Job in Milwaukee?
Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe is competing to be the team's primary closer in 2026. While that role belonged to Trevor Megill last season, Uribe has simply been the stronger bullpen arm and offers tremendous upside in save scenarios. Uribe finished 2025 with a 1.67 ERA, 10.75 K/9, and 3.23 BB/9 over 75 games (75.1 innings). He touched 100 mph with his fastball and racked up seven saves. Megill had 30 saves, but he was less effective overall with a 2.49 ERA and 3.23 xERA. The Brewers are lucky to have two capable closers competing for one job; there are very few teams in MLB that find themselves in that position. At the same time, though, this is a very important decision for the Brewers to make, and all things being equal, it seems like Uribe may be the favorite. He's the cheaper fantasy option, too, currently holding an ADP of 170 (compared to Megill's ADP of 135).
