The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed wide receiver
Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million deal on Monday night, and ESPN's Nate Taylor thinks the Chiefs "should be able to offer him more snaps and more opportunities." The 25-year-old was one of KC's best receivers in 2025, especially early on when both
Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and
Rashee Rice (suspension) were out. Thornton had a career-high 438 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 19 catches in his first year working with quarterback
Patrick Mahomes. "He's the GOAT in my eyes, man," Thornton said of Mahomes. "He's a competitor, and he makes me so much better. It was an honor to go out there and catch those passes from him." As things currently stand, Thornton looks like the WR3 behind Rice and Worthy. His big-play potential is intriguing, though, as a late-round flier in what should be an improved Chiefs offense.

According to Dane Moore of The Dane Moore NBA Podcast, Minnesota Timberwolves forward
Kyle Anderson (knee) is available for Tuesday's game after missing one contest with a right knee issue. The veteran forward has played a limited role in his second stint with Minnesota, averaging 3.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 14.5 minutes across his first two appearances. Given his modest workload, Anderson is unlikely to provide meaningful fantasy value on Tuesday.

ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques writes that Miami Dolphins tight end
Greg Dulcich "should figure heavily" in the team's passing game in 2026 under new head coach Jeff Hafley. Dulcich didn't make his debut for the Dolphins last year until October, but he managed to be one of the club's bright spots, catching 26 passes for 335 yards and a touchdown on 33 targets in 10 games (three starts). Believe it or not, he was Miami's third-leading receiver. He also quietly led all tight ends in average yards after the catch (7.6) and yards per target (10.2) while finishing third in yards per catch (12.9). Quarterback
Malik Davis will be running the Dolphins' offense going forward, giving Dulcich some real deep sleeper potential at the TE position going into the 2026 season if they don't re-sign veteran
Darren Waller. Injuries have slowed the former third-rounder by the Broncos in 2022, as he's yet to play over 10 games in a season in his four years.

The Carolina Panthers re-signed wide receiver
David Moore to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday, according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. Moore only played in four games for the Panthers in 2025 in his second year with the team, catching his only target for five yards. The 31-year-old former seventh-round selection by the Seattle Seahawks in 2017 out of East Central totaled 32 receptions on a career-high 57 targets for 351 yards and three touchdowns in 17 games played in his first year in Carolina in 2024. Moore will return to provide depth for Carolina's wide receiver room, but he can pretty much be ignored in all fantasy formats going into his ninth NFL season. Moore has never gone over 35 receptions, 445 receiving yards, or six touchdowns in a single year in his NFL career.

The San Francisco 49ers added former New England Patriots swing tackle Vederian Lowe in free agency for two years and $12 million. Lowe is "not a replacement" for Trent Williams, though, according to Vic Tafur and Matt Barrows of The Athletic. The 6-foot-5, 315-pounder started four games at left tackle last season for New England and has 25 starts in the last three seasons. Williams continues to butt heads with the 49ers on his contract, which is scheduled to count $38 million against the 2026 salary cap. The 49ers must figure out what to do with Williams before March 20, when he's due a $10 million option bonus. There's a chance the 49ers opt to trade him, but only then would Lowe be a potential starter at left tackle for San Francisco. The Williams situation is one to watch, as it could drastically impact their O-line and quarterback
Brock Purdy.

Golden State Warriors guard/forward
Will Richard (ankle) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Chicago Bulls. The 23-year-old missed four consecutive games due to a right ankle sprain. Before the injury, Richard had been fairly productive, averaging 10.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 21.1 minutes per contest across his previous five outings. However, he is not considered a reliable streaming option on Tuesday, as his minutes could be limited while he works his way back from the absence.

Golden State Warriors forward/center
Al Horford (toe) will play on Tuesday against the Chicago Bulls. Horford missed the first set of a back-to-back on Monday due to toe injury maintenance. The 39-year-old veteran center is averaging 8.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.1 blocks across 21.8 minutes per contest in 41 games this season.
Kristaps Porzingis (illness) is also set to return, so
Quinten Post (foot) and
Malevy Leons minutes on the floor will be significantly shortened during tonight's contest.

The San Francisco 49ers have interest in re-signing running back
Brian Robinson Jr., according to Vic Tafur and Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Robinson had a solid season in the Bay Area as the backup behind
Christian McCaffrey in his first year with the team in 2025, even though he had a career-low 400 rushing yards and only two touchdowns on 92 carries over 17 regular-season games. In his first three NFL campaigns with the Washington Commanders, the 26-year-old former third-round pick out of Alabama had at least 733 rushing yards out of the backfield. B-Rob's best chance for a rebound in fantasy would be to sign elsewhere, but another injury to CMC would also thrust Robinson into a significant backfield role in one of the better offenses in the league if he re-signs. Robinson didn't have over 10 carries in a single game last year with McCaffrey staying healthy all year.

The Seattle Seahawks let Super Bowl MVP running back
Kenneth Walker III walk in free agency to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the playoffs in January and might not be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season, which is why The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar believes the Seahawks will "probably" draft a RB in April with one of their first three picks at Nos. 32, 64, or 96. The Seahawks have a history of valuing the RB position more in the draft than in free agency, too. The Athletic's Dane Brugler recently mocked Notre Dame running back
Jadarian Price to Seattle with the No. 64 overall pick. Depending on who the Seahawks pick up at RB in the draft and Charbonnet's early-season status, incumbent
George Holani could be a sleeper for playing time as the Seahawks look to defend their title in 2026.

Golden State Warriors forward/center
Kristaps Porzingis (illness) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Chicago Bulls. Porzingis returns to the Warriors' rotation after sitting out Monday's loss to the Utah Jazz for maintenance. The 30-year-old recently returned to action in Saturday's loss to Oklahoma City following a six-game absence, finishing with nine points, five rebounds, five assists and one block in 23 minutes. However, he will likely remain on a minutes restriction as the team continues to ease him back into the lineup.

March 10, 2026
The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar writes that Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Rashid Shaheed's new deal "suggests a demotion" for
Cooper Kupp, who turns 33 years old in June. Last year, Kupp was second on the team in targets (70) and receiving yards (593), and third in catches (47). His 2026 salary cap hit sits at $17.4 million, fourth-highest on the team behind
Sam Darnold, Leonard Williams, and Uchenna Nwosu. One of either Shaheed or Kupp will end up being a pricey WR3, and the team still has second-year wideout
Tory Horton. If the Seahawks were to trade Kupp, they'd save around $9.4 million in 2026. Kupp led the NFL in catches (145), targets (191), receiving yards (1,947), and touchdowns (16) in 2021 with the Los Angeles Rams, but he's steadily declined since then. He caught only two touchdown passes in 16 regular-season games in 2025 and might have an even smaller role in his 10th year in the NFL if he stays in Seattle.

Retired All-Pro wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. believes that new Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
Jahan Dotson "has developed enough" to handle the No. 2 receiver role behind
Drake London, according to Josh Kendall of The Athletic. The Falcons have released
Darnell Mooney and
KhaDarel Hodge, leaving only London,
Casey Washington, and
Deven Thompkins under contract in 2026. In addition to Dotson, the Falcons signed
Olamide Zaccheaus on Monday. The 25-year-old former 16th overall pick by the Washington Commanders in 2022 out of Penn State only has 1,519 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns on 121 catches in his first four NFL seasons with the Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles, but his speed means he'll be "expected to play the field-stretcher role" that was handled the last two years by Mooney. Given Atlanta's big question mark at quarterback, Dotson figures to be a boom/bust WR4/5, at best, in fantasy in 2026.

Former Indianapolis Colts offensive tackle Braden Smith is signing with the Houston Texans on Tuesday on a two-year, $25 million deal, sources told Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Smith was drafted in the second round by the Colts in 2018 out of Auburn. The 29-year-old right tackle started 105 of the 107 games he appeared in over his eight seasons with the Colts. Smith has trended down the last two seasons and finished last year on Injured Reserve due to a concussion and neck injury. Still, the Texans are hoping he can be an upgrade at right tackle next season over Trent Brown. Houston's offensive line was a liability last year. Pass protection isn't Smith's specialty, but he should at least be competent as a run-blocker if he can stay healthy in his new digs in Houston.

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe says that he was told that the New England Patriots' talks regarding Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
A.J. Brown "aren't dead yet." The Eagles' asking price for Brown is "still very high," and it's unclear if anything changes on that front after New England signed former Green Bay Packers wideout
Romeo Doubs to a four-year deal on Tuesday. Right now, there isn't much common ground between the Patriots and Eagles on any potential deal for the 28-year-old Brown. Doubs goes a long way to help replace veteran
Stefon Diggs, who was released recently, but it wouldn't be a surprise if the Patriots still want an alpha No. 1 receiver like Brown. The three-time Pro Bowler had his fourth straight 1,000-yard season with the Eagles in 2025, although he wasn't happy with his role in the offense, and he had a career-low 12.9 yards per catch in his seventh year in the league.

The Dallas Cowboys restructured defensive tackle Kenny Clark's deal on Tuesday, turning his $11 million roster bonus due next week into a signing bonus to open up around $8.8 million in salary cap space for this year, sources told Todd Archer of ESPN. The Cowboys acquired Clark and two first-round picks last year from the Green Bay Packers in exchange for All-Pro pass-rusher Micah Parsons (knee). In his first year in Dallas, the 30-year-old veteran and three-time Pro Bowler had 36 tackles (17 solo), three sacks, six tackles for loss, and nine QB hits in 17 starts. The Cowboys haven't really made a big splash in free agency yet this week, but their restructuring of Clark's contract could be a sign that they are about to do something. They were interested in trading for All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby before he was dealt to the Ravens, and they've been connected to impending free-agent pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson as well.

Milwaukee Bucks forward
Bobby Portis (back) was added to the team's injury report as questionable with a back contusion for Tuesday night's home game against the Suns. Portis has scored at least 12 points in six straight games and is coming off a big 18-point, 10-rebound double-double on Sunday. Since
Jericho Sims (knee) and
Taurean Prince (neck) are also questionable, there could be large workloads available for
Kyle Kuzma and
Pete Nance. If Prince is able to play, his minutes will likely be minimal since he has not played since Nov. 4.

Miami Heat forward
Simone Fontecchio (groin) is ready to return from a three-game absence and will be back in action after being upgraded from probable to available. He could step right into a large role in a smash spot against the Washington Wizards.
Kel'el Ware (shoulder),
Norman Powell (groin),
Andrew Wiggins (toe), and
Nikola Jovic (back) are all out, and
Tyler Herro (quad) is questionable. Fontecchio could fill in at forward and brings lots of offensive upside. He had 12 points in 20 minutes in his most recent game last Tuesday, and he could be in a similar role in this contest, depending on who else is available or out for Miami.

The Buffalo Bills have reached out to pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson, a source told Ryan Talbot of Syracuse.com. Plenty of other teams around the league are in the mix for Hendrickson as well, who is expected to walk away from the Cincinnati Bengals in free agency this offseason. Despite playing in only seven games last year and having season-ending core-muscle surgery, the 31-year-old All-Pro defensive end is the top name available on the market after back-to-back 17.5-sack seasons for the Bengals in 2023 and 2024. Hendrickson has every right to think that he deserves somewhere between $30 million and $40 million per season, but ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that so far, no team has been willing to meet his asking price. Teams are probably hesitant to dole out that much cash for a player on the wrong side of 30 coming off surgery. The Cowboys are another team that has been connected to Hendrickson.

Miami Heat center
Kel'el Ware (shoulder) was ruled out after being listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Wizards. Ware is dealing with a shoulder strain and will miss his first game since Jan. 25. Without him,
Andrew Wiggins (toe) and
Nikola Jovic (back) on Tuesday,
Bam Adebayo will have to play heavy minutes at center with
Vladislav Goldin as the only other true center available. That should open up more time for
Simone Fontecchio, Jaime Jaquez, and
Myron Gardner at forward. Jaquez logged 29 minutes in the team's last game against Detroit, producing 19 points, six rebounds, and seven assists, while Gardner started but played just 17 minutes with four points and six rebounds.

The plan is for Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder
Corbin Carroll (hand) to serve as the designated hitter in the team's Cactus League game on Wednesday against the Athletics, according to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com. The 25-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year has healed quickly from surgery to fix a fractured hamate bone in his right hand in early February. Barring a setback once Carroll returns to game action, he should be ready for Opening Day later this month. It's great news for the Diamondbacks and fantasy managers who took Carroll as a top-10 fantasy outfielder already in drafts. The former 16th overall pick in 2019 is a two-time All-Star and contributes across all categories in fantasy. Carroll has led the league in triples in each of the last three years and was a 30-30 man in 2025 for the first time in his career.

Miami Heat guard
Tyler Herro (quad) was a late addition to the injury report for Tuesday's game, which is never a good sign for a player's availability. He has missed time this season with a variety of ailments, and he is now dealing with quad soreness. He played 30 minutes on Sunday against the Pistons and racked up 25 points in Miami's win. Before that, he lit up the Hornets for 33 points, nine assists, and nine rebounds on Friday. He's been rolling and has a great matchup against Washington if he's at 100%, but if he is unable to give it a go,
Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez could be more involved for the Heat. If that happens, both would bring high ceilings as streaming or DFS plays.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander
Roki Sasaki is expected to open his second year in the big leagues in 2026 as a starting pitcher, per Jack Vita of the Los Angeles Times. "I don't see a world in which Roki Sasaki doesn't [open the season] as a starter," manager Dave Roberts said. Sasaki only appeared in 10 games (eight starts) in his first big-league season in 2025 during the regular season, allowing 18 earned runs on 30 hits (six homers) while walking 22 and striking out 28 in 36 1/3 innings pitched. The 24-year-old Japanese hurler then made nine appearances in the postseason as the Dodgers' closer, giving up just one earned run while recording three saves in 10 2/3 frames. He hasn't looked great in his two Cactus League starts, allowing seven earned runs while walking five and striking out five in 3 1/3 innings. Control continues to be the biggest issue for Sasaki, who could eventually be moved back to a bullpen role in 2026 when lefty
Blake Snell (shoulder) makes his season debut.

Trae Young (injury management) has only played two games for the Wizards since being acquired at the trade deadline, and Tuesday won't be his third after he was ruled out for injury management. He has averaged 14.5 points and 7.0 assists in just 18.5 minutes in his two games for the Wizards, and his next chance to return to the lineup will be Thursday against the Magic. Without Trae on Tuesday,
Bub Carrington and

Detroit Tigers first baseman
Spencer Torkelson (forearm) was hit on his right forearm by a pitch during a simulated game in camp on Tuesday and left early with a trainer for treatment, according to Chris McCosky of the Detroit News. It's unclear right now how serious Torkelson's injury is or if it will prevent him from being ready on Opening Day later this month. The 26-year-old former first overall pick in 2020 out of Arizona State hit 31 home runs for the second time in his career last season after clubbing only 10 long balls in 2024, and he added 78 RBI and 82 runs scored in 155 games played while slashing .240/.333/.456 in 649 plate appearances. There's always going to be swing and miss in Torkelson's game, but he cut back slightly on his whiffs in 2025 and showed more plate discipline. Fantasy managers should look at Tork as a power asset later in drafts as corner-infield depth.

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora stopped short of making it official but "strongly indicated" on Tuesday morning that infielder
Caleb Durbin will be the team's starting third baseman on Opening Day later this month, according to Sean McAdam of MassLive.com. The Red Sox will most likely go with Durbin at the hot corner after they were unable to re-sign
Alex Bregman in free agency in the winter. The 26-year-old Durbin played third base with the Milwaukee Brewers last year in his MLB debut, too, while finishing with a .256/.334/.387 slash line, .721 OPS, 11 homers, 53 RBI, 60 runs scored, and 18 stolen bases in 136 total regular-season games. Durbin finished third in the National League Rookie of the Year voting. He displayed great plate discipline, but fantasy managers should be concerned about his 4.0% barrel rate, 26.9% hard-hit rate, and 85.2 mph average exit velocity. Durbin doesn't have the high-end power to be more than a backup third base option in mixed fantasy leagues.

Black is having a breakout season for the Magic, averaging 15.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 30.7 minutes per game. He has helped the Magic overcome extended absences by
Jalen Suggs and
Franz Wagner (ankle), but now it looks like he'll be on the sideline for a while. For however long he is out,

A few teams have called the San Francisco 49ers about quarterback
Mac Jones, but many interested teams around the league described the price as "astronomical," according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. The 49ers don't have much incentive to move Jones, who filled in nicely with
Brock Purdy missing plenty of time last year with a turf-toe injury. The 27-year-old went 5-3 as a starter while throwing for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions in 11 total games played. The Niners signed Jones to a two-year, $8.4 million deal last offseason, so he has become an excellent value as the backup for the oft-injured Purdy. The 49ers will have to be blown away by a trade offer to even consider moving Jones as he heads into the final year of his deal. The former first-rounder in 2021 by the New England Patriots out of Alabama has become one of the more steady backup options in the NFL.

The Indianapolis Colts and quarterback
Daniel Jones have made progress on a long-term deal, but nothing has been finalized yet, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Both sides remain in contact. The Colts placed the transition tag on Jones, which will pay him a fully guaranteed $37.83 million for 2026 if he doesn't sign a long-term extension. Jones' representatives reportedly countered a previous long-term offer by Indy and asked for $50 million per season. The two sides were pretty far apart on the numbers, but it sounds like they're getting closer to a middle ground to lock Jones up as their starter under center for the future. The 28-year-old former sixth overall pick by the New York Giants in 2019 out of Duke was having a career year in his first year in Indy in 2025, throwing for 3,101 yards, 19 touchdowns, and eight interceptions before tearing his Achilles in the second half of the year. It sounds like something will eventually get done, and he'll return to the Colts. As far as Jones' fantasy value goes, there will be a lot of skepticism with him spending all offseason rehabbing his Achilles tendon tear.

The Detroit Tigers placed right-hander
Troy Melton (elbow) on the 60-day injured list on Tuesday with elbow inflammation despite no rehab setback, according to Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press. The move means that the earliest Melton can return in 2026 is on May 25. The 25-year-old has yet to resume throwing since suffering a right-elbow strain early in spring training last month. It's a big setback for the young pitcher after he looked good in his big-league debut for Detroit last year. Melton went 3-2 on the mound with a 2.76 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, 36 strikeouts, and 15 walks in a small sample size of 45 2/3 innings over 16 outings (four starts). He showed even more upside as a key arm for the Tigers in the offseason, even if his strikeout rate from the minors didn't carry over. The expectation was that Melton would get a shot at a full-time starting role this year, but those plans could be changing because of his elbow injury.
