    6m ago

    The Bills signed Williams to a one-year contract Thursday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Williams suited up for 16 regulars-season games with the Panthers last season, in which span he racked up 33 tackles (13 solo) and one sack. He stands to boulster Buffalo's defensive line as a depth piece for the 2024 season.

    Jayden Daniels: Throws at LSU pro day
    24m ago

    Daniels, who opted to not throw at the NFL Scouting Combine, did so at LSU's pro day Wednesday, Eric Edholm of NFL.com reports.

    Per the report, Daniels, who measured in at 6-foot-3⅝, 210 pounds, was slated to spend time afterward with the Patriots, Commanders, Giants, Vikings, Broncos and Raiders. As next month's draft approaches, the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner is viewed as one of the top options at the QB position, along with USC's Caleb Williams, North Carolina's Drake Maye and Michigan's J.J. McCarthy. While Williams is expected to be selected first overall, where Daniels lands remains to be seen, though what is clear is that the top four signal-callers figure to come off the board quickly, in any case.

    Jaguars' Josiah Deguara: Inking with Jacksonville
    3h ago

    The Jaguars are slated to sign Deguara to a one-year contract, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.

    Deguara spent the last four seasons handling a depth role in Green Bay, where he was drafted in the third round back in 2020. His versatility both as a blocker and on special teams will boost his chances of earning playing time behind Evan Engram, but Deguara peaked with a 25-245-2 receiving line in 2021 and doesn't appear to have much fantasy potential.

    J.K. Dobbins: Lines up AFC West visit
    5h ago

    Dobbins (Achilles) is visiting the Chargers on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Dobbins, who was recently medically cleared for football activities, is coming off a left Achilles tear after previously missing all of 2021 and about half of the 2022 season due to a torn ACL and proceeding issues. That medical history undercuts otherwise impressive career numbers for Dobbins, who has averaged 5.8 yards per carry and scored 13 touchdowns since entering the NFL in 2020 as a second-round pick by the Ravens, but only suited up for 24 games in that span. Reuniting with offensive coordinator Greg Roman could make the most sense as a landing spot for Dobbins, but it's possible he doesn't garner more interest than a potential prove-it deal. The Chargers signed Gus Edwards,a former Baltimore backfield mate of Dobbins, early in free agency.

    Texans' Derek Stingley: Slow start, strong finish
    5h ago

    Stingley recorded 39 tackles, 13 passes defensed and five interceptions over 11 regular-season games in 2023.

    Stingley, a second-year cornerback and 2022 first-round draft pick, suffered a Week 3 hamstring that created issues for the defense early on, but upon his return Week 10, Stingley made an impact. He had interceptions in three straight games, including a Week 13 win over the Broncos. Stingley will return as Houston's top cornerback in 2024.

    DeAndre Houston-Carson: Enters free agency

    Houston-Carson recorded 41 tackles, five passes defensed, two interceptions and one fumble recovery over 13 regular-season games in 2023.

    Houston-Carson started the season in Baltimore then finished up in Houston, where he played a career-high 447 snaps on defense. Injuries on the back end led to Houston-Carson playing a big role for the Texans, including two pivotal plays in a Week 10 win over the Bengals. He entered unrestricted free agency during the offseason.

  • John Means BAL SP
    Orioles' John Means: Opens season on IL
    3m ago

    The Orioles placed Means on the 15-day injured list Thursday with a left forearm strain.

    Means will be eased along slowly into the season after he experienced a flareup in his surgically repaired left elbow back in October. According to MLB.com, Means was about a month behind the Orioles' healthy pitchers in his throwing progression when he reported to spring training Feb. 14, so he only recently reached the point in his ramp-up program where he's able to face hitters. Means is expected to report to Triple-A Norfolk in the near future for a rehab assignment and is likely to make multiple starts on the farm before the Orioles are comfortable bringing him back from the IL.

    Pirates' Jose Hernandez: Recalled from Triple-A
    4m ago

    The Pirates recalled Hernandez from Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday.

    With Roansy Contreras on paternity leave, Hernandez will join Pittsburgh's bullpen for the start of the season. The 26-year-old southpaw registered a 4.97 ERA and 1.36 WHIP last season across 50.2 innings and will presumably head back to Indianapolis once Contreras rejoins the team.

    Pirates' Connor Joe: Batting leadoff Thursday
    5m ago

    Joe is starting in right field and batting leadoff for Thursday's opener against the Marlins.

    With southpaw Jesus Luzardo on the bump, Joe not only gets the call in right field over Jack Suwinski but is also perched atop the batting order. The setup makes him a sneaky DFS play Thursday.

    The Pirates placed Contreras on the paternity list Thursday.

    Contreras will be allowed to miss the first three games of the season while he tends to more important matters. Jose Hernandez was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move.

    Orioles' Kyle Bradish: Goes on 15-day IL
    7m ago

    The Orioles placed Bradish (elbow) on the 15-day injured list Thursday.

    The fact that Bradish is opening the season on the 15-day IL rather than the 60-day IL supports the notion that the Orioles are hopeful the 27-year-old will avoid a longer-term absence to begin the season while he recovers from a right UCL sprain. Bradish remains likely to miss all of April, but since he resumed throwing bullpen sessions more than two weeks ago, the right-hander is seemingly on pace to pitch at some point in May, barring any setbacks in the ramp-up process.

    Markkanen ended Wednesday's 118-111 loss to the Spurs with 25 points (8-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 42 minutes.

    Markkanen's team-high 42 minutes marked his second-most playing time in a game this season. This is encouraging, considering the 26-year-old forward has missed eight of Utah's last 12 contests. Since the beginning of 2024, Markkanen is been shooting 42.0 percent on 7.7 three-point attempts per game.

    Wolf will guard the road goal versus the Blues on Thursday, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

    Wolf played well in his last start Sunday against the Sabres, turning aside 25 of 27 shots, but he still came away with a loss due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. He'll try to get back in the win column in a middling road matchup with a St. Louis squad that's averaging 3.14 goals at home this year, 17th in the NHL.

    Flames' Oliver Kylington: Game-time call

    Kylington will be a game-time decision heading into Thursday's clash with St. Louis, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

    Kylington has been limited offensively since returning to the team in late January, registering just five points in 24 contests while averaging 16:44 of ice time. As such, most fantasy players won't be impacted by his potential absence. If Kylington does miss out against the Blues, Joel Hanley or Dennis Gilbert figures to step into the lineup.

    Barabanov was injured in the second period Tuesday versus Dallas and did not return. There are only three weeks remaining in the season and it's possible that Barabanov has seen his last action of the campaign. He has four goals and 13 points in 46 games this season, a far cry from 2022-23, when he had 15 goals and 32 assists in 68 games.
