Jean Segura Leaves Game Wednesday
Seattle Seahawks shortstop Jean Segura (hamstring) left the Cactus League game early Wednesday with right hamstring tightness. The Mariners have been extremely unlucky with injuries in spring training, as outfielder Ichiro Suzuki was also hurt Wednesday night, and Nelson Cruz and Robinson Cano have also been injured of late. Segura is the team's spark plug […]

De'Anthony Thomas Returning To Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed wide receiver De'Anthony Thomas on Wednesday. He turned down $1.5 million from another team to remain in KC. Thomas had just 14 catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games last year for the Chiefs, and he's mostly a special teams asset, so fantasy owners need not take […]

Luke Willson To Visit With Panthers
Free-agent tight end Luke Willson will visit with the Carolina Panthers. Willson is looking to leave Seattle after spending the first five years of his career there. He never had more than 22 catches or 362 yards in a single season, but he did have a career-high four scores in 2017. In Carolina, Willson would […]

Chad Henne In The Mix For Dolphins
Free-agent quarterback Chad Henne is in the mix as a potential veteran backup for the Miami Dolphins. Henne has thrown just two passes as the backup in Jacksonville the last three years. That's pretty much all you need to know. If signed by the Dolphins, Henne would serve as Ryan Tannehill's backup.

Tom Savage Heading To Saints
Free-agent quarterback Tom Savage is signing with the New Orleans Saints. Savage may have been one of the most overmatched signal callers in the NFL last season after he was called into a starting role following rookie Deshaun Watson's knee injury. Savage had a 56.1 completion percentage, five touchdowns and six interceptions in eight games […]

Vikings Trading For Trevor Siemian
The Minnesota Vikings are set to acquire quarterback Trevor Siemian and a 2018 late-round pick from the Denver Broncos in exchange for a 2019 draft pick, according to multiple reports. With the Broncos signing Case Keenum, Siemian was expendable, and he's now set to serve as the backup to Kirk Cousins in Minnesota. Siemian, a […]

Ichiro Suzuki Pulled With Tight Calf
Seattle Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki (calf) was pulled early from the Cactus League game on Wednesday with a tight right calf. As if you needed another reason to dislike Suzuki as he enters his age-44 season, he's unlikely to hold up to regular playing time as he returns to his former team. There is a […]

Buccaneers Signing Chandler Catanzaro
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are signing free-agent place kicker Chandler Catanzaro to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to a source. The Bucs had no consistency from the kicking position in 2017 and were still feeling the effects of drafting kicker Roberto Aguayo way too early several years ago. Catanzaro hit 25 of his 30 […]

Mike Davis, Thomas Rawls Hit Open Market, J.D. McKissic Given Tender
The Seattle Seahawks did not tender running backs Mike Davis and Thomas Rawls, making them unrestricted free agents. However, they did give a qualifying offer to exclusive-rights free-agent running back J.D. McKissic. Rawls had plenty of potential in Seattle, but he was never the same after he suffered a broken ankle late in the 2015 […]

Seahawks Keeping Dion Jordan
The Seattle Seahawks placed an original-round tender on restricted free-agent defensive end Dion Jordan on Wednesday, meaning he'll receive a salary of $1.907 million in 2018. Seattle can match any offer another team signs Jordan to or receive a first-round pick as compensation. Jordan was the third overall pick by Miami in 2013 and missed […]

Brandon Coleman Becomes Free Agent
The New Orleans Saints didn't tender an offer to wide receiver Brandon Coleman, making him an unrestricted free agent. He's now free to sign with any team, although his market won't be all that robust after he had just 23 receptions for 364 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games last season. Coleman hasn't caught […]

Jets Place Second-Round Tender On Quincy Enunwa
The New York Jets placed a second-round tender on restricted free-agent wide receiver Quincy Enunway on Wednesday worth $2.914 million. A former sixth-rounder, Enunwa had 58 catches for 857 yards and four touchdowns last season and could generate interest on the open market after his solid season. If he returns to the Jets, he could […]

Zack Wheeler Could Be Ticketed For Relief Role
The New York Mets are intrigued by the idea of using starting pitcher Zack Wheeler out of the bullpen, but they have not wanted to use starter Steven Matz in that role. As expected, Wheeler was highly inconsistent in 17 starts for the Mets last season after coming off two lost seasons due to Tommy […]

Chargers Signing Virgil Green
The Los Angeles Chargers are signing free-agent tight end Virgil Green on Wednesday, according to a source. Always somewhat of a sleeper tight end for Denver, he never lived up to they hype and had only 14 receptions for 191 yards and one touchdown in 2017. He recorded one touchdown each of the last four […]

Ryan Tannehill Restructures Contract
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill restructured his contract in order to give the team more salary cap space this year, according to a source. He will receive more money up front.

Ndamukong Suh Officially Released
The Miami Dolphins are officially releasing defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh after a trade never materialized, according to a source. Taking Suh off the books will free up a ton of money against the salary cap in 2018. Despite his release, the 31-year-old remains one of the best run-stopping defensive lineman in the game, and he […]

Dolphins Officially Releasing Julius Thomas
The Miami Dolphins are officially releasing tight end Julius Thomas on Wednesday, according to a league source. Thomas failed to impress in his lone season with the Fish in 2017, catching 41 passes for 388 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games. Since back-to-back 12 touchdown campaigns with Denver in 2013-14, Thomas has done very […]

Patriots Retain Rex Burkhead
The New England Patriots agreed to an undisclosed multi-year extension with running back Rex Burkhead on Wednesday, according to a league source. Burkhead had more than 500 yards from scrimmage with eight touchdowns last year in his first season with New England. He should be lined up for even more work in the backfield in […]

Andrew Romine May Not Be Out Long
Seattle Mariners infielder Andrew Romine (shoulder) is dealing with a shoulder subluxation but will rest for now, and he doesn't think it'll keep him out for long. Romine should be good to go for the start of the regular season as he competes for a utility role on the team's bench. He hit just .233 […]

Bears Expected To Sign Chase Daniel
The Chicago Bears are expected to sign free-agent quarterback Chase Daniel to a two-year, $10 million deal, according to a source. The deal will contain $7 million in guarantees and is voidable after one year. Daniel has history with new head coach Matt Nagy from their time in Kansas City, so this makes sense. Daniel […]

Nelson Cruz Has Grade 1 Strain
Seattle Mariners outfielder Nelson Cruz (quadriceps) said he has a Grade 1 quadriceps strain. He will rest for a few days but said the injury isn't a big deal. The Mariners will surely be cautious with their big slugger, but it sounds like Cruz could be ready for Opening Day if he doesn't suffer any […]

Patrick Robinson Expected To Sign With Saints
Free-agent cornerback Patrick Robinson is expected to sign a four-year deal with the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday. Robinson was the 32nd overall pick in the first round by the Saints in 2010, and he was a disappointment in his five seasons with them, but he's returning and has a chance to flip the script […]

Magneuris Sierra Has Tight Hamstring
Updating a previous report, Miami Marlins outfielder Magneuris Sierra (hamstring) was diagnosed with a tight left hamstring after leaving the Grapefruit League game early on Wednesday. While this could hurt his chances of being ready for the start of the season, Sierra wasn't expected to begin on the major league roster anyway, and he's likely […]

Magneuris Sierra Removed From Game
Miami Marlins outfielder Magneuris Sierra (leg) was removed from the spring game early Wednesday after pulling up lame while running out a ground ball. Sierra needs plenty of seasoning in the minors with his new team, but hopefully this injury doesn't set him back from a developmental standpoint. Speed and contact is Sierra's game, but […]
