    3h ago

    Davis played 11 NFL seasons, spending five years with the Rams, two with the Jaguars and the final four of his career with the Patriots. The 34-year-old primarily played on special teams and hadn't played a defensive snap since 2020. He'll finish his career with 118 combined tackles, two interceptions and three fumbles recovered.

  • Olamide Zaccheaus PHI WR
    Commanders' Olamide Zaccheaus: Moving on to Washington
    4h ago

    Zaccheaus has agreed to a deal with the Commanders, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    In his only campaign with the Eagles, Zaccheaus (who caught 40 passes with the Falcons in 2022) finished the 2023 regular season with 10 catches for 164 yards and two TDs in 17 games. With the Commanders, the 26-year-old will add depth to a wideout corps that is currently led by Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson. In that context, Zaccheaus has some bounce-back potential if he can carve out steady snaps in 2024 behind the team's top duo.

    Bills' DeShawn Williams: Lands in Buffalo
    6h ago

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

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

  • Jayden Daniels 2005 QB
    Jayden Daniels: Throws at LSU Pro Day
    7h ago

    Daniels, who opted to not throw at the NFL Scouting Combine, did so at LSU's Pro Day on 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
    9h 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 BAL RB
    J.K. Dobbins: Lines up AFC West visit
    11h 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.

    Twins' Max Kepler: X-rays clear on right leg
    4m ago

    Manager Rocco Baldelli noted after Thursday's 4-1 win over the Royals that X-rays on Kepler's right leg came back negative, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Kepler managed to finish his at-bat after the foul ball, but he didn't take the field in the bottom of the eighth inning. The Twins have Friday off, which gives the team an extra day to see how Kepler feels ahead of Saturday's contest. He went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts before exiting Thursday.

  • Clay Holmes NYY RP
    Yankees' Clay Holmes: Hangs on for opening-day save
    5m ago

    Holmes worked around three hits to deliver a scoreless ninth inning, earning the save in a 5-4 win over the Astros on Thursday.

    It certainly appeared that Houston was poised to tie the game in the ninth after two of the first three batters reached safely off Holmes. However, Juan Soto threw out Mauricio Dubon at home for the second out, preserving the one-run lead, before Holmes coaxed a groundout off the bat of Alex Bregman to seal the victory. While Thursday's outing may have been more tenuous than Holmes would have liked, the 31-year-old right-hander appears to be locked into the closing job in New York. Holmes recorded 24 saves last season, pitching to a 2.86 ERA with a 1.17 WHIP and 71:23 K:BB across 63 innings.

    Stephan underwent surgery to repair his UCL on Wednesday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

    It was known that Stephan would require surgery, though the exact nature of the procedure was unclear. The team still didn't announce details, though he'll miss the entire 2024 campaign and could also miss a significant portion of 2025 as well.

  • Ryan Yarbrough LAD RP
    Dodgers' Ryan Yarbrough: Notches three-inning save
    17m ago

    Yarbrough picked up the save in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Cardinals, allowing just one hit while logging one strikeout over three scoreless innings.

    After Tyler Glasnow held St. Louis to one run in the first six innings, Yarbrough held the Redbirds to a lone single over three efficient innings as he earned an unexpected Opening Day save. The 32-year-old left-hander isn't likely to see many save chances going forward in Los Angeles, as he's slated for a long-relief role. Yarbrough went 8-7 with a 4.52 ERA and 67:14 K:BB across 89.2 innings last season between the Dodgers and Rays.

    Twins' Trevor Larnach: Day to day with undisclosed injury
    22m ago

    Larnach is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury, according to Saints manager Toby Gardenhire via Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul.

    Larnach's injury is likely minor, but he's unlikely to be an option if the Twins need an outfield replacement in the near future. Larnach hit 15 home runs in 72 games with a .888 OPS at Triple-A last season, but he needs to make more contact once reaching the majors (60.7 percent contact rate) to stay in the big leagues

    25m ago

    Lewis (quadriceps) underwent an MRI and is awaiting results after exiting Thursday's game against the Royals, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Lewis was forced to exit the game after injuring himself running the bases in the third inning. He described the issue as feeling like a cramp, though nothing official has been announced. Lewis's status will become clearer once the results of the MRI are known.

    Vezenkov has been sidelined since early February, but he's trending in the right direction and is considered day-to-day. If he gets the green light, Vezenkov could work his way back into the rotation. On the season, the forward is averaging 12.6 minutes per game.

    Hauser is not in the starting lineup to face the Hawks on Thursday, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

    The Celtics will feature their regular starting unit of Jrue Holiday, Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis, so it's not surprising to see Hauser heading back to his regular bench role. Hauser is averaging 11.9 points per game while shooting 47.8 percent from three-point range since the beginning of March.

    Minnesota transferred Clark (Achilles) to the G League's Iowa Wolves on Thursday.

    Clark was a second-round pick by the Timberwolves but has yet to play this season while recovering from an Achilles surgery he underwent during his final collegiate season at UCLA in 2022-23. It's unclear if he'll be cleared to play before the end of his rookie campaign, but it's encouraging to see the youngster ramping up in the G League.
