  • Tank Dell HOU WR
    Texans' Tank Dell: Engages in workout Saturday
    7h ago

    Dell (leg) ran and performed drills Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Dell is recovering from what has been described as a "clean flesh wound" to his left leg sustained as an innocent bystander in a shooting in Florida in late April. The wideout's workout Saturday suggests that he's progressing well and confirms previous reports that the wound was minor. Given his activity Saturday, there appears to be a chance that Dell will participate in the Texans' OTAs, which begin Monday.

    Chiefs' Chukwuebuka Godrick: Arrested on misdemeanor charge
    1d ago

    Godrick and teammate Wanya Morris were arrested on misdemeanor marijuana possession charges Thursday and released on bond Friday, according to Johnson County (Kansas) Sheriff reports, Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.

    Godrick and Morris were arrested Thursday night and released on a $2,500 bond Friday. Possession of marijuana is illegal in the state of Kansas. Godrick is expected to compete for a roster spot in 2024 after spending his rookie year on Kansas City's practice squad in 2023. It's unclear whether Godrick will face supplemental discipline from the NFL or the Chiefs as a result of this arrest.

    La'Mical Perine: Waived by KC
    1d ago

    Perine was waived by the Chiefs on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Kansas City is parting ways with Perine after he rushed for 77 yards on 22 carries while adding three catches for 33 yards in 2023. The 2020 fourth-round draft pick of the Jets spent his first two seasons in New York. Perine will look to latch on with another team prior to training camp.

  • T.J. Hockenson MIN TE
    Vikings' T.J. Hockenson: No timetable for return
    1d ago

    Hockenson (knee) said "they haven't really put a timeline on it" when asked Wednesday about a potential date for his in-season return to action, Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.

    Hockenson was specifically asked on the NFL Schedule Release '24 show whether he expects to be playing Week 5 versus the Jets in London. The standout tight end said of his recovery from a right ACL and MCL tear he's "kinda taking it day by day, week by week," and that "the progression has been incredible" even though a specific return timetable remains uncertain. Hockenson underwent surgery late January and doesn't seem likely to be ready for Week 1, but Week 5 could be within the realm of possibility. The Vikings have a Week 6 bye, however, so it's possible that a more realistic target for Hockenson's debut could be Week 7 and beyond.

  • Najee Harris PIT RB
    Steelers' Najee Harris: Dropping weight for contract season
    2d ago

    Harris' trainer said Friday the running back has dropped to around 235 pounds this offseason after playing at 242 during the 2023 season, and that he's increasingly motivated after the Steelers declined his fifth-year option, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.

    Harris is heading into the final season of his rookie deal with Pittsburgh, so there's no doubt about his motivation to log a productive year and earn sizeable payday for 2025. Playing at a lower weight could help Harris' efficiency metrics, and there's also some reason to be optimistic that he now finds himself in a better scenario than 2023, when he set new career-high marks with eight rushing touchdowns and 4.1 YPC. Rookie first-round pick Troy Fautanu should represent an upgrade to the O-line, and while there are question marks surrounding Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, both have the potential to command a more effective offense than Kenny Pickett did. Harris is capable of handling 20-plus touches but also dependent on volume to produce, making the emergence of Jaylen Warren the biggest threat to his fantasy prospects.

  • Gunnar Henderson BAL SS
    Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Slugs league-leading 14th homer
    1h ago

    Henderson went 1-for-3 with his major league-leading 14th home run in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Mariners.

    Not only was it flamethrowing reliever Andres Munoz who Henderson took deep in the ninth inning, but he did so to the opposite field and over the 13-foot wall in left field in an impressive showing of power. It cut the Mariners' lead to one at the time, but that was as close as the Orioles would get. It was the second game in a row with a homer for Henderson, who also drew a pair of walks Saturday.

    Mariners' Andres Munoz: Nails down save No. 8
    1h ago

    Munoz allowed a run but hung on to notch his eighth save of the season in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Orioles.

    Gunnar Henderson made things interesting with a two-out, solo home run, but Munoz quickly bounced back in setting down Adley Rutschman swinging to end it. Henderson's long ball represents the only run Munoz has allowed over his last 10 appearances, and he boasts a 15:1 K:BB over 12 innings during that span.

  • Grayson Rodriguez BAL SP
    Orioles' Grayson Rodriguez: Dazzles in return from injured list
    1h ago

    Rodriguez didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Mariners, yielding just one hit and three walks over six shutout innings. He recorded seven strikeouts.

    Rodriguez missed a little more than two weeks with right shoulder inflammation and made his return Saturday without going out on a rehab assignment first. He certainly showed that he didn't need one, as didn't give up his first and only hit on the night until there was one out in the sixth inning (and even that was just an infield single). Rodriguez was limited to just 82 pitches in his first start back, but he still managed to complete six frames because he was so efficient. The righty displayed his normal velocity and induced 13 swinging strikes on his 82 pitches. Rodriguez missed out on a win after the Orioles' bullpen struggled, but he looked as good as his fantasy managers could have hoped for.

    Mariners' Luis Castillo: Mixed bag in no-decision
    2h ago

    Castillo did not factor into the decision Saturday in Baltimore, permitting two runs on four hits and four walks over six innings. He struck out two.

    The four walks were a season high and the two strikeouts were by far a season low for Castillo. He still managed a seven straight quality start, though, keeping his team in it before the Mariners' offense rallied late. It's the first no-decision of the season for Castillo, who is just 4-5 in spite of a 3.28 ERA, including a 2.01 mark across his last seven outings.

  • Kevin Gausman TOR SP
    Blue Jays' Kevin Gausman: Tosses quality start Saturday
    2h ago

    Gausman came away with a no-decision in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Rays, giving up three runs on eight hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out six.

    The veteran right-hander cruised through five innings before running into trouble in the sixth and allowing all three of his runs. It was a solid bounce-back effort for Gausman after he got tagged for seven runs (six earned) in his last outing, and the quality start was his third of the season. He'll take a 4.89 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 43:11 K:BB through 42.1 innings into his next start, which lines up to come on the road next week in Detroit.

  • Jonny DeLuca TB CF
    Rays' Jonny DeLuca: Leads comeback win
    2h ago

    DeLuca went 1-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run, a second run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Blue Jays.

    After drawing a walk and coming around to score in the sixth inning as part of a three-run rally that got the Rays on the board, DeLuca turned on a 97.3 mph fastball from Nate Pearson in the eighth inning and launched it over the left-field fence for the game-winning hit. DeLuca has begun to see his playing time slip as Tampa Bay's roster has gotten healthier, but through 15 games this season he still sports a .300/.404/.550 slash line with two homers, three steals, six runs and 12 RBI.

    Timberwolves' Mike Conley: Questionable for Sunday
    5h ago

    Conley (Achilles) is questionable for Sunday's Game 7 against Denver.

    After missing Game 5 with this same injury, Conley played in Game 6 on Thursday and finished with 13 points, five assists, four rebounds and one block in 31 minutes. With Minnesota's season on the line, Conley will likely attempt to power through the issue again.

    Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Questionable for Sunday
    6h ago

    Murray is questionable to play in Sunday's Game 7 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

    Murray has been listed as questionable throughout the entire series, but that's not surprising, as the star point guard has been dealing with a left calf strain since the end of Denver's first-round series against the Lakers. The Nuggets may need Murray to be at his best if they want to win Sunday, as he's coming off a woeful showing in the Game 6 loss on Thursday, scoring 10 points while shooting 4-for-18 from the field.

    Anunoby (hamstring) has been upgraded to questionable for Sunday's Game 7 against the Pacers.

    The questionable tag is all there is to work with right now in terms of specifics, but New York fans will be thrilled that there's a chance Anunoby is able play for the first time since Game 2. There should be additional clarity on Anunoby's status following the Sunday morning shootaround.

  • Josh Hart NY SF
    Knicks' Josh Hart: Iffy for Game 7 with abdominal strain
    6h ago

    Hart suffered an abdominal strain during Friday's Game 6 against Indiana, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. He's officially listed as questionable for Sunday's Game 7.

    Hart exited Friday's Game 6 early with abdominal soreness, and further testing indicated that Hart's dealing with a strained abdomen. Even if Hart gets the green light, it's unlikely that he'd be at 100 percent considering the recency of the issue. If the 28-year-old can't go, expect Miles McBride. Alec Burks and Precious Achiuwa to see more minutes.

    Pacers' Doug McDermott: Cracks rotation in victory

    McDermott supplied zero points (0-1 FG) in three minutes during Friday's 116-103 victory over the Knicks in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

    McDermott played three minutes to close the game Friday, at which point the Pacers had the game sealed up. Having played a total of just 19 minutes in the series, it's safe to say that McDermott is not going to play a role in determining the outcome of what has been a fantastic series between two bitter rivals.

  • Evander Kane EDM LW
    Oilers' Evander Kane: Point streak at four games
    3m ago

    Kane scored a goal on four shots, added 10 PIM, logged seven hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Kane converted the Oilers' fifth goal after Leon Draisaitl won a faceoff back to him. During his four-game point streak, Kane has two goals, two assists, 15 hits and 16 PIM. The winger is at seven points, 28 shots, 41 hits, 31 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 11 playoff contests. He continues to play in a middle-six role, though he's looked a little sharper since Draisaitl moved back to the second line at even strength.

    Oilers' Zach Hyman: Scores 10th goal of postseason
    5m ago

    Hyman scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Hyman snapped a three-game slump with his second-period tally, which ended up being the game-winner. It was perhaps a short-term regression for the winger, who scored nine times over the first six contests this postseason before the skid. He's at 10 goals, two assists, 45 shots on net, 29 hits and a plus-5 rating through 11 appearances in the playoffs.

    Oilers' Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: Collects three points in Game 6
    7m ago

    Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal, dished two assists, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Nugent-Hopkins earned his first multi-point effort in five outings. He assisted on goals by Zach Hyman and Evan Bouchard in the second period before scoring one of his own in the third. Through 11 playoff contests, Nugent-Hopkins has three goals, 11 assists, 14 shots on net, 20 hits and a plus-3 rating. He's played the last two games alongside Connor McDavid, which gives Nugent-Hopkins some significant DFS upside if he stays in that spot for Game 7 on Monday.

    Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Ruled out for Game 7
    9m ago

    Head coach Rick Tocchet said Demko (knee) will not play in Monday's Game 7 versus the Oilers, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

    Demko was believed to have a chance to return during the second round, but this will eliminate that possibility. The Canucks will instead entrust either Arturs Silovs or Casey DeSmith in a must-win game with a trip to the Western Conference Finals on the line. Demko will have missed 12 straight contests after Monday, and there's been no indication at what point he might be available if the Canucks are able to extend their playoff run.

    13m ago

    Bouchard scored a goal on two shots, added two assists, went plus-4 and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Bouchard had a point in each period as he earned his third multi-point effort over six games in the second round. The defenseman has been excellent with five goals, 13 helpers, 37 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 11 playoff outings. Even more impressively, Bouchard has held his own defensively, though he's also clearly benefiting from playing alongside Mattias Ekholm on the top pairing.

    Skinner stopped 14 of 15 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Skinner was benched for the previous two games, but he was back between the pipes with the Oilers' season on the line. The Canucks came out flat, leaving Skinner with little work to do as he snagged the win and forced Game 7. The 25-year-old is 6-3 in the playoffs, but he's given up three or more goals in six of his appearances. Securing the win Saturday makes it likely he'll start in the win-or-go-home contest Monday in Vancouver.
