Deshaun Watson CLE QBBrowns' Deshaun Watson: Throwing full speed
18m agoWatson (shoulder) said Tuesday he's already resumed "throwing full speed" but that he's uncertain how large a workload he'll handle during OTAs and minicamp, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Watson clarified that certain members of the Browns' medical staff are in favor of a more conservative approach to the quarterback's recovery from right shoulder surgery, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram, which would wait until training camp to have him fully practice. Still, Watson has been fully forthright in his confidence to be available for the Browns' season opener, and there appear to be no real worries about his Week 1 status. In case Watson misses part of the offseason, or struggles during the fall, Cleveland can lean on newly-signed, experienced backups Jameis Winston and Tyler Huntley.

Odell Beckham Jr. BAL WROdell Beckham: Nothing imminent with Miami
1h agoDolphins general manager Chris Grier said Tuesday that there's "nothing imminent" on a deal between Beckham and the team, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Beckham was reportedly extended a contract offer by Miami after visiting with the team back in March, but it doesn't appear that a signing is around the corner. The 31-year-old is coming off a forgettable 14-game season with the Ravens, in which he put up a 35-565-3 receiving line, but he could find more success as a No. 3 option behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. It could be that Beckham will need to wait until after the dust of the 2024 NFL Draft has settled to find a landing spot.

Jaylen Waddle MIA WRDolphins' Jaylen Waddle: Fifth-year option to be exercised
1h agoGeneral manager Chris Grier said Tuesday that he expects the Dolphins to pick up Waddle's fifth-year option, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
The Dolphins have consistently stated a desire to come to terms with Waddle on a long-term contract, and Grier specifically dismissed trade rumors earlier this offseason. The third-year pro has recorded three straight 1,000-yard seasons to begin his career, becoming the first wideout to do so in franchise history, and there's little question of his value as a No. 2 read behind Tyreek Hill. Picking up Waddle's fifth-year option will keep him under contract with the Dolphins for two more seasons.

Taylor Decker DET OTLions' Taylor Decker: Recovered from offseason surgery
2h agoDecker said Tuesday he underwent foot/ankle surgery this offseason and resumed working out mid-February, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.
Decker appears already recovered from his offseason procedure. The 30-year-old left tackle missed only two regular-season games last season while suiting up for all three of Detroit's postseason contests. Now heading into the final year of his contract, Decker is still playing at a high level.
-
Courtland Sutton DEN WRBroncos' Courtland Sutton: Not at voluntary OTAs
4h agoSutton wants a new contract and hasn't reported to voluntary OTAs, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Sutton has two seasons remaining on a four-year, $60 million extension, scheduled for a $13 million base salary in 2024 ($2 million guaranteed) and then $13.5 million in 2025 (no guarantees). He scored a career-high 10 touchdowns in 16 games last season, though 90 targets were his fewest since 2020 -- the year he suffered an ACL tear Week 1 -- and he still hasn't come close to matching his career-high 1,112 yards from 2019. The 28-year-old won't necessarily hold out from mandatory team activities later this spring, but the situation is at least worth keeping an eye on until he gets an extension or contract adjustment, or otherwise reports to the Broncos. There's been no indication of his Week 18 ankle injury lingering into the offseason, with the main concern at this point being the lack of a starting-caliber QB on Denver's roster. The team also appears thin at wide receiver, where the starting job across from Sutton could end up going to any of Josh Reynolds, Marvin Mims, Tim Patrick (Achilles) or Brandon Johnson.

Shemar Jean-Charles NO CBSaints' Shemar Jean-Charles: Back in Big Easy
19h agoJean-Charles re-signed with the Saints on Monday, Howard Balzer of GoPHNX.com reports.
Jean-Charles was not tendered by New Orleans as a restricted free agent, but he will return to the team nonetheless. After spending his first two seasons in Green Bay, the 25-year-old suited up for eight games between the 49ers and Saints in 2023. He accumulated four tackles (three solo) in the process. The Appalachian State product will now look to make an impression during offseason workouts.

Tyler O'Neill BOS RFRed Sox's Tyler O'Neill: Sitting Tuesday
5m agoO'Neill (head) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
The 28-year-old is going through the concussion protocol after a colliding in the outfield with Rafael Devers on Monday, and O'Neill will sit at least one game as he continues to be evaluated. He received eight stitches above his left eye, and O'Neill should be considered day-to-day until it's determined whether or not he has a concussion.
-
Trevor Rogers MIA SPMarlins' Trevor Rogers: Moving up to Wednesday
8m agoRogers will move up a day to start Wednesday versus the Giants, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Rogers last started Friday, so he will be pitching on regular rest. He's filling in for A.J. Puk, who is battling an illness.
-
A.J. Puk MIA SPMarlins' A.J. Puk: Will not start Wednesday
10m agoPuk (illness) will not start as hoped Wednesday against the Giants, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Puk was pushed back from Monday to Wednesday due to illness and he remains under the weather. Trevor Rogers will move up a day to start Wednesday on regular rest. It's not yet clear when Puk might be ready to take the ball next, but the Marlins have an opening Thursday versus the Cubs that they probably are hoping he'll feel well enough to fill.
-
Anthony Rendon LAA 3BAngels' Anthony Rendon: Continues hot stretch
12m agoRendon went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs in Monday's 7-3 victory versus the Rays.
Rendon notched his fourth straight multi-hit game Monday, and he's now batting .263 on the season. That's an impressive climb considering that the veteran third baseman began the campaign hitless through his first 21 at-bats. Rendon is batting a robust .480 over his past six contests, and he's reached base via hit or walk in nine consecutive games. However, his role as the Angels' leadoff hitter has limited his run-production opportunities -- on the season, he has just one RBI.
-
Carlos Santana MIN 1BTwins' Carlos Santana: Taking seat Tuesday
1h agoSantana is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Baltimore.
Alex Kirilloff will get the nod at first base while Santana takes a seat. It's the second day off of the season for Santana, who is slashing an ugly .135/.224/.154 over his first 14 contests.
-
Brendan Rodgers COL 2BRockies' Brendan Rodgers: Held out again with illness
1h agoRodgers (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Philadelphia.
Rodgers was a late scratch from Monday's lineup due to illness and still isn't feeling up to playing. Alan Trejo will again filling in at second base for the Rockies. Trejo went 1-for-3 at the plate in Monday's loss to the Phillies.
-
Malik Monk SAC SGKings' Malik Monk: Yet to begin running
8m agoMonk (knee) has not re-commenced running amid his ongoing recovering from an MCL sprain, and he "doesn't know if a first round return is realistic goal," per Anthony Slater of The Athletic.
Sacramento must defeat Golden State on Tuesday to unlock a first-round opportunity, but Monk appears to be multiple recovery steps away from returning to game action. Behind superstar De'Aaron Fox, Keon Ellis and Davion Mitchell have absorbed work in a shorthanded backcourt.
-
Ousmane Dieng OKC SFThunder's Ousmane Dieng: Recalled from G League
16m agoThe Thunder recalled Dieng from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Tuesday, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
Dieng had a monster game in the G League Championship on Monday, garnering 25 points, six rebounds and four assists in a 117-100 victory over the Maine Celtics. The 20-year-old averaged 4.0 points and 1.5 rebounds in 33 appearances during his second NBA regular season. Dieng will rejoin the team for the postseason but is not expected to be part of the Thunder's rotation.
-
Lindy Waters III OKC SGThunder's Lindy Waters: Recalled from G League
17m agoThe Thunder recalled Waters from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Tuesday, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
Waters helped the Oklahoma City Blue clinch their first G League Championship on Monday, putting up 15 points, 11 rebounds and two assists in a 117-100 victory over the Maine Celtics. The 26-year-old has been given more of an opportunity in April, averaging 7.9 points on 60.0 percent from the floor in 11.6 minutes. He's back for the Thunder's postseason run but isn't expected to be part of the NBA rotation.
-
Walker Kessler UTA CJazz's Walker Kessler: Expected to play in Summer League
27m agoThe Jazz plan to have Kessler (nose) participate in the 2024 NBA Summer League, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
After a nice rookie season in 2022-23 in which Kessler started his final 34 appearances, he was selected in the early-to-mid rounds of most fantasy leagues this season. Managers that did so were disappointed. The center's points (8.1) and rebounds (7.5) per game decreased, as did his field-goal percentage (65.4). He also started just 22 games and crossed the 30-minute threshold only eight times. While the Jazz also had interest in developing other bigs like John Collins and Taylor Hendricks, plus giving minutes to Kelly Olynyk before trading him to Toronto, Kessler's role gave the impression that he wasn't impressing coach Will Hardy. The organization seems to believe it would be best for Kessler to get more development minutes this summer.
-
Dereck Lively II DAL CMavericks' Dereck Lively: Full go at practice Tuesday
1h agoLively (knee) was a full participant during Tuesday's practice, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.
Lively missed the final eight regular-season games due to a right knee sprain, but it looks like he'll have a chance to play in Dallas' opening-round series against the Clippers. However, the Mavericks still have a few days before they release their official injury report, and we won't get clarity on Lively's status until then.
-
Ayo Dosunmu CHI PGBulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Hopeful for Wednesday
1h agoDosunmu (quadriceps) is hopeful to play in Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Dosunmu missed four straight games to end the regular season with a bruised right quad. He's trending in the right direction, however, and he was spotted going through a full-court scrimmage with the player development coaches Tuesday. More clarity is expected when the Bulls release their injury report Tuesday evening.
-
Chandler Stephenson LV CGolden Knights' Chandler Stephenson: Considered day-to-day
3m agoStephenson won't be in the lineup versus Chicago on Tuesday due to an undisclosed injury, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Stephenson is considered day-to-day, so he could still be an option for the season finale against Anaheim on Thursday or, perhaps more importantly, Game 1 of the playoffs. In his previous 11 contests, the 29-year-old center managed just two goals while chipping in eight helpers, including four power-play points. Without Stephenson in the lineup, Paul Cotter looks set to take on a second-line role.
-
Jacob Markstrom CGY GFlames' Jacob Markstrom: Tending twine Tuesday
8m agoMarkstrom will patrol the road crease versus Vancouver on Tuesday, Eric Francis of Sportsnet reports.
Markstrom is stuck in a three-game losing streak while also having won just once in his last seven outings. During that seven-game stretch, the 34-year-old backstop has managed a subpar 3.48 GAA and .870 save percentage. Meanwhile, Dustin Wolf has won three in a row and could get the nod for the season finale against San Jose on Thursday.
-
Logan Thompson LV GGolden Knights' Logan Thompson: Slated to start
25m agoThompson was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, putting him on track to guard the home goal versus Chicago on Tuesday.
Thompson played well in his last start Friday against the Wild, stopping 25 of 27 shots en route to a 7-2 blowout victory. He'll try to secure a win in what could be his last start of the regular season in a highly-favorable home matchup with a Blackhawks team that's an eye-popping 7-31-1 on the road this year.
-
Torey Krug STL DBlues' Torey Krug: Won't play in season finale
34m agoKrug (upper body) won't be in the lineup for Wednesday's regular-season finale against Dallas, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Krug will finish the season with four goals, 39 points, an ugly minus-31 rating, 162 shots and 111 hits through 77 contests. He should produce similar totals while seeing regular power-play usage in 2024-25, making him a decent complementary option at defense in most fantasy formats.
-
Brady Skjei CAR DHurricanes' Brady Skjei: Back in action
44m agoSkjei (rest) will be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Blue Jackets, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
Skjei will play on the top pairing with Brent Burns after sitting out Sunday's 4-2 win over Chicago for roster management purposes. The 30-year-old Skjei has 13 goals, 47 points, 185 shots on net and 90 blocked shots in 80 contests this campaign.
-
Jonas Rondbjerg LV RWGolden Knights' Jonas Rondbjerg: Recalled from AHL
1h agoRondbjerg was recalled from AHL Henderson on Tuesday.
Rondbjerg has played in 18 games with the Knights this season, recording one goal and two assists. The 25-year-old will hope to stick with the Golden Knights in a depth spot for the team's playoff run.
