Kyle Hendricks Focused On 2023 Season
Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks (shoulder) said that he'll head to Arizona after the team's current homestand with the goal of resuming a throwing program. However, the veteran hurler said his focus is on getting right for the 2023 season while having a full offseason. With the Cubs well out of contention, Hendricks' priority... Read More
Mike Gesicki To Play Less As Receiver
Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has been less of a focal point on offense during training camp. The 26-year-old is being used more as a blocker than a pass-catcher right now. This is different for Gesicki who has been a receiving tight end over the last three or four seasons. Now, Durham Smythe is... Read More
Jalen Guyton Catches Just One Pass Against Cowboys
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Jalen Guyton caught one of his two targets for 16 yards during their 32-18 loss against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday. Guyton has been trying to overtake teammate Joshua Palmer to become the No. 3 option in the offense behind Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. Unfortunately, this performance is unlikely to impress the coaching staff. Having finished... Read More
Preston Williams Fills Depth Role Saturday
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams hauled in all three of his targets for 22 yards against the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday evening. He returned a punt at the end of the third quarter, then saw his three targets in the fourth quarter when Skylar Thompson quarterbacked the offense. Williams has yet to emerge... Read More
Myles Gaskin Totals Five Touches On Saturday
Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin rushed four times for just 12 yards during Saturday's preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He also turned two targets into one reception for no gain. Gaskin was once a fantasy relevant running back in the high-end RB3 range, but he has fallen mightily due to a lack... Read More
Salvon Ahmed Rushes Five Times Saturday
Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed rushed five times for 20 yards during Saturday's preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He also saw one target but turned it into a catch for negative three yards. All of Ahmed's snaps came with the second-team offense, which included quarterback Teddy Bridgewater. However, the term "second-team offense"... Read More
Matt Corral Likely Done For The Year
Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback Matt Corral (foot) has reportedly suffered a Lisfranc injury that is expected to end his season. This is certainly not the way he wanted his NFL career to begin. This could also impact his availability entering 2023, depending on how quickly he returns to form. The 23-year-old will start a long... Read More
Tyquan Thornton Expected To Miss About 8 Weeks
New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (collarbone) left Friday's game against the Panthers with a collarbone injury. Although there is no official timetable for his return, the initial expectation is he'll miss about eight weeks. This is an unfortunate outcome for the rookie, who was making an impact during training camp and the... Read More
Kendrick Bourne Sliding Down The Depth Chart
New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne had 800 receiving yards last year, but he continues to slide down the depth chart this summer. He's now behind Nelson Agholor, Jakobi Meyers and DeVante Parker. Bourne said this week that he'll ride the bench if that's what he has to do to help the team win.... Read More
Xander Bogaerts Ejected Friday
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts was ejected from Friday's game against the Baltimore Orioles for arguing balls and strikes. Bogaerts was given a quick hook after objecting to a low pitch that was called for strike three in the fourth inning. Manager Alex Cora joined the argument and was also ejected from the contest.... Read More
Keegan Thompson Roughed Up By Brewers
Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Keegan Thompson had a rough start against the Brewers on Friday, allowing five runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three over three and two-thirds innings. Although Thompson has been useful this season, he has really struggled recently, pitching to an 8.44 ERA in four August starts. This... Read More
Aaron Rodgers Not Happy With Receivers
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers hasn't exactly been happy with his group of wide receivers in training camp this summer. "The young guys, especially young receivers, we've got to be way more consistent," Rodgers said. "A lot of drops, a lot of bad route decisions, running the wrong route. We've got to get better... Read More
Antonio Senzatela Exits With Sprained Knee
Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Antonio Senzatela suffered a left knee sprain during Thursday's blowout loss against the St. Louis Cardinals, according to Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post. The right-hander will undergo an MRI on Friday. "Devastating," manager Bud Black told Saunders when describing Senzatela's latest obstacle. "Crossing our fingers, for sure." The 27-year-old allowed... Read More
Isiah Kiner-Falefa Benched On Thursday
New York Yankees shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's contest against the Toronto Blue Jays. The absence is not injury related. Rather, Kiner-Falefa gets a day off after starting nine consecutive games and producing subpar numbers during that span. Rookie infielder Oswaldo Cabrera, who made his MLB debut at third base... Read More
Eric Hosmer Gets Day Off On Thursday
Boston Red Sox first baseman Eric Hosmer isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bobby Dalbec will start in his place, batting eighth and playing first base. This is a simple rest day for Hosmer, who is hitting just .244 against righties and owns a 7-for-34 (.206) line through... Read More
MJ Melendez Won't Start Thursday
Kansas City Royals catcher and outfielder MJ Melendez isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Instead, Kyle Isbel, Michael A. Taylor, and Hunter Dozier make up the outfield for Kansas City while veteran Salvador Perez does the catching. Presumably, this is a non-injury-related day off for the 23-year-old, who... Read More
O.J. Howard Not A Threat To Dawson Knox
Buffalo Bills tight end O.J. Howard has been a slight disappointment this summer in training camp. He's a solid blocker who can help in two-tight end formations, but he doesn't look to be an immediate threat to Dawson Knox for playing time. Howard is a big body, but he's looked slow and has been predictable... Read More
Ezekiel Elliott Could Be Gone In 2023
The Athletic's Bob Sturm expects the 2022 season to be running back Ezekiel Elliott's last with the Dallas Cowboys. Elliott has lacked explosiveness in recent seasons and his rushing yards per game have fallen every year of his career. His yards per game receiving have also dropped every year since 2018, and he's unlikely to... Read More
Deshaun Watson Suspended 11 Games
The NFL and Players Association reached an agreement in Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson's case on Thursday, and he will be suspended for 11 games and fined $5 million. Watson will also undergo a treatment program and will be eligible to return against the Houston Texans, his former team. There had been talks between the... Read More
Yusei Kikuchi Removed From Toronto's Rotation
Toronto Blue Jays interim manager John Schneider said left-hander Yusei Kikuchi will transition to a relief role. He has struggled this season, posting a 5.25 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and a 91:49 K:BB across 82 1/3 innings in 2022. The 31-year-old is expected to pitch out of the bullpen, starting with Saturday's game against the Yankees.... Read More
Athletics Release Elvis Andrus
The Oakland Athletics released infielder Elvis Andrus on Wednesday. The 33-year-old appeared in 106 games for the A's this season, hitting .237 with a .301 on-base percentage, eight home runs, and seven stolen bases in 386 plate appearances. Andrus also saw the bulk of the team's starts at shortstop this season. Nick Allen has seen... Read More
Julio Jones To Take Part In Joint Practices
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones is expected to accompany the team to Nashville this week to take part in the team's two joint practices with the Tennessee Titans, according to head coach Todd Bowles.

The NFL and NFL Players Association have been involved in active settlement negotiations over the past few days in the disciplinary matter for Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, according to league sources not authorized to speak publicly.

Craig Kimbrel Blows Save Tuesday, Retains Manager's Trust
Los Angeles Dodgers closer Craig Kimbrel blew his fourth save of the season and took his fifth loss in Tuesday's 5-4 extra-innings loss to the Brewers. Kimbrel came in to pitch the bottom of the 11th inning with a one-run lead and a ghost runner on second. He allowed a leadoff single, got an out... Read More
Washington Wants Antonio Gibson To Be More Decisive
The Washington Commanders still like running back Antonio Gibson a lot and he can provide big plays, but the team wants him to be more consistent in the way he runs and to be more "one-cut and go." Gibson gets himself in trouble when he becomes indecisive about when or where to cut, which leads... Read More
Antonio Gibson Working With Punt Team
Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson is playing the slot on the punt-block team in training camp practice, which appears to be a new development. Special teams coordinator Nate Kaczor likes running backs in the slot because the role is similar to pass protection. In the past, it's been rookie Brian Robinson in that spot.... Read More
Christian Yelich Goes Hitless Against Dodgers
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 0-for-2 with two walks in Monday's 4-0 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fantasy managers weren't complaining about the two walks, but Yelich has been ice-cold at the plate out of the leadoff spot for the Brew Crew of late. In 12 games in August, he's hitting .159 (7-for-44)... Read More
Ronald Jones Could Be Cut Candidate
Kansas City Chiefs running back Ronald Jones could fall off the 53-man roster, according to Nate Taylor of The Athletic. The former second round pick was expected to compete for a backup role during training camp. Jones managed only one rushing yard on four attempts during their preseason opener. It sounds like the 25-year-old is... Read More
Daniel Jones Scuffles During Sunday’s Practice
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had a rough go finding success during Sunday's practice, per observers. The signal caller is reported to have gone 6-for-20 through the air, including tossing an interception. While Kadarius Toney (leg, knee) was unavailable, Jones still struggled to get the ball out to his playmakers. The 25-year-old kicked off... Read More
