3h agoWillis signed his exclusive rights free-agent tender with the 49ers on Tuesday.

Jaylen Warren PIT RBSteelers' Jaylen Warren: Signs RFA tender
7h agoWarren signed his one-year restricted free agent tender with the Steelers on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Warren received a second-round restricted free agent tender from Pittsburgh in March, which carries a $5.35 million salary for the 2025 season. Signing his tender doesn't necessarily preclude a long-term deal materializing for Warren, but any further negotiations could be heavily swayed by the team's actions, or lack thereof, in addressing the running back position during the 2025 NFL Draft. Coach Mike Tomlin expressed confidence Tuesday in Warren's capabilities of handling lead back duties following the departure of Najee Harris, per Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com.

James Cook BUF RBBills' James Cook: Skipping voluntary workouts
8h agoCook is not present for the start of voluntary OTAs on Tuesday, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.
Bills general manager Brandon Beane said it's "not fair" to assume Cook's absence at voluntary OTAs is related to his desire for a new contract, adding that "he'll be ready to go" for mandatory offseason activities. Nonetheless, coming off a 2024 campaign in which he scored 18 touchdowns (16 rushing) despite playing just 48 percent of offensive snaps in his 16 regular-season appearances, Cook has been open about his desire for both a substantial extension and increased playing time. Still, Buffalo has Ray Davis entering Year 2, and the team opted to re-sign pending free agent Ty Johnson, indicating some level of commitment to a backfield rotation. How much attention the team pays to the running back position in the 2025 NFL Draft, which kicks off Thursday, could be telling as to Cook's odds of attaining a new deal. He's currently heading into the final year of his rookie contract after having compiled back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons.

Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah CLE LBBrowns' Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah: In building for voluntary OTAs
9h agoOwusu-Koramoah (neck) is present at team facilities Tuesday for the start of voluntary OTAs, Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com reports.
Owusu-Koramoah's activity level at voluntary workouts has yet to be disclosed, and his attendance doesn't necessarily indicate having been cleared for any on-field activities, but but the 25-year-old's presence is at least a positive sign. The star linebacker suffered a serious season-ending neck injury last October after colliding with Baltimore running back running back Derrick Henry, and Browns general manager Andrew Berry referred to his recovery progress as "nebulous" last Thursday. Officially, Owusu-Koramoah still remains without a clear recovery timetable, and it's possible more specific clarity on his potential return to the field won't arrive until training camp.

Kirk Cousins ATL QBFalcons' Kirk Cousins: Shows up for voluntary workouts
9h agoCousins is present for the start of Atlanta's voluntary OTAs on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Cousins' attendance at voluntary OTAs is something of a surprise, after his having been benched Week 16 of last season in favor of 2024 first-round pick Michael Penix, who is slated to kick off the 2025 campaign under center. Atlanta could have released Cousins in mid-March to avoid having his $10 million guaranteed roster bonus kick in, but the team opted to keep the veteran quarterback in house as a backup option or trade candidate. However, Cousins' contract includes a no trade-clause which he seems unlikely to waive unless the chance to inherit a starting role elsewhere materializes.

Tanner Bibee CLE SPGuardians' Tanner Bibee: Earns second win
4m agoBibee (2-2) allowed two runs on five hits and three walks over six innings Tuesday, striking out five and earning a win over the Yankees.
Bibee was taken deep by Ben Rice on the first pitch of the game, but the Yankees didn't plate another run until Jazz Chisholm's sacrifice fly in the sixth inning. Bibee picked up his first win since his season debut March 30; he was 0-2 with an 8.16 ERA in three starts between wins. The 26-year-old threw 70 of 106 pitches for strikes but forced only four whiffs. Bibee now owns a 5.19 ERA with a 20:14 K:BB through 26 innings. He's projected to face the Twins at home next week.

Jorge Polanco SEA DHMariners' Jorge Polanco: Smacks fourth homer of 2025
9m agoPolanco went 1-for-4 with one walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to Boston.
Polanco opened the scoring in the first winning, when he took a returning Bryan Bello deep to right-center field for a solo homer. It was Polanco's fourth homer of the year, and he's started the season slashing .339/.356/.589 with one stolen base, six runs scored and 13 RBI in 60 plate appearances.
-
Steven Kwan CLE LFGuardians' Steven Kwan: Two hits in victory
9m agoKwan went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Yankees.
Kwan continues to display his elite contact skills and is up to nine multi-hit performances this season, including five over his last eight games. The 27-year-old outfielder singled twice Tuesday and scored a run during Cleveland's three-run sixth inning. Kwan is now slashing .341/.400/.505 with 17 runs scored through 23 games.

Chris Bassitt TOR SPBlue Jays' Chris Bassitt: Stumbles for first time this season
10m agoBassitt (2-1) took the loss against the Astros on Tuesday after allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk in 5.1 innings. He struck out three.
Although Bassitt had allowed just two runs through his first four starts of the year, it was a struggle for him Tuesday. The veteran right-hander matched a season low with three punchouts, and most of the damage was done during a three-run first inning by the Astros. Bassitt still sports a 1.88 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and a sparkling 34:6 K:BB over 28.2 frames ahead of a tough matchup at home against Boston in his next scheduled outing. However, the righty does have a strong 2.27 ERA and 35:18 K:BB in seven appearances (43.2 innings) versus the Red Sox as a member of the Blue Jays since 2023.
-
Bryce Miller SEA SPMariners' Bryce Miller: Gives up four runs in loss
12m agoMiler (1-3) took the loss against Boston on Tuesday. He allowed four runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four across 4.2 innings.
Miller had particular trouble facing off against Alex Bregman, with the third baseman responsible for driving in three of the four runs Miller gave up in Tuesday's contest. Miller wasn't able to make it out of the fifth inning despite tossing 100 pitches (59 strikes), and through five starts he's up to a 4.21 ERA and 1.44 WHIP over 25.2 innings. He's in line to make his next start against the Marlins at home this weekend.
-
Aaron Judge NYY RFYankees' Aaron Judge: Perfect day at dish
14m agoJudge went 4-for-4 with a double, a run scored, and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to Cleveland.
Judge didn't display his usual power Tuesday, but he delivered his second four-hit game of the season. He also swiped his third bag of the year and first since April 4. The star outfielder owns a ridiculous .411/.509/.772 slash line with 14 extra-base hits and 22 runs scored over 108 plate appearances. Judge has gone deep just once over his last 17 games, but he's hitting .426 (26-for-61) during that span.

20m agoMathurin closed with 14 points (4-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound and one assist across 17 minutes during Tuesday's 123-115 win over the Bucks in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

22m agoPortis ended with 28 points (11-19 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one block over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 123-115 loss to the Pacers in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Portis shined off the Bucks bench in Tuesday's Game 2, providing Milwaukee with a much-needed boost while leading all players in three made and finishing second among Bucks players in scoring and rebounds in a double-double. Portis had his breakout performance Tuesday, a game after recording just four points and eight boards in Game 1. Milwaukee will need Portis to continue the Game 2 level of play if it wants to climb back into this series against Indiana.
-

26m agoHachimura went to the locker room with 4:39 remaining in the first quarter of Tuesday's Game 2 against the Timberwolves after being inadvertently struck in the face by Naz Reid, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Hachimura tallied two points (2-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal in seven minutes before exiting Tuesday's contest early. If Hachimura is unable to return to action, Dorian Finney-Smith will likely receive increased playing time.
-
Giannis Antetokounmpo MIL PFBucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Does it all in Game 2 defeat
26m agoAntetokounmpo supplied 34 points (14-20 FG, 6-10 FT), 18 rebounds, seven assists and one block across 40 minutes during Tuesday's 123-115 loss to the Pacers in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Filip Gustavsson MIN GWild's Filip Gustavsson: Guarding goal Tuesday
22m agoGustavsson will start in goal on the road versus the Golden Knights in Game 2, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Gustavsson will look to even the series after being in goal for the 4-2 loss in Game 1. The 26-year-old netminder is expected to be the starter for the Wild throughout the playoffs, though they'll be in a precarious position in the first round if he can't snag a win Tuesday.
-
Jesse Puljujarvi FLA RWPanthers' Jesse Puljujarvi: Back in NHL
2h agoPuljujarvi (suspension) was called up from AHL Charlotte on Tuesday.
Puljujarvi will serve the first game of his two-game suspension Tuesday. Assuming he stays on the NHL roster, he'll be eligible to play in Game 3 on Saturday, but there's no guarantee he'll be in the lineup at any point in the postseason.
-
Sergei Bobrovsky FLA GPanthers' Sergei Bobrovsky: Starting Game 1
3h agoBobrovsky will start on the road in Game 1 versus the Lightning on Tuesday, Rob Darragh of the Panthers' official site reports.
As expected, Bobrovsky has the net for the first game of the Panthers' playoff run. That's unlikely to change regardless of his performance this postseason, especially since Vitek Vanecek didn't have a great end to the regular season. Bobrovsky was occasionally unlucky late in the season, going 9-6-0 despite his elite 1.87 GAA and .916 save percentage over his last 15 outings.
-
Hayden Hodgson OTT RWSenators' Hayden Hodgson: Still unavailable
4h agoHodgson (lower body) won't play in Game 2 against Toronto on Tuesday, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.
Hodgson hasn't been skating and will miss his fourth straight game. He appeared in two NHL outings during the 2024-25 regular season, earning two shots on goal and seven hits. Once healthy, Hodgson probably won't crack Ottawa's lineup.

Olivier Rodrigue EDM G
Oilers' Olivier Rodrigue: Summoned from AHL
8h agoRodrigue was recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Tuesday.
Rodrigue appeared in two games with the Oilers during the 2024-25 regular season, posting a record of 0-1-0 with a 3.10 GAA and an .862 save percentage. He went 18-16-7 with a 3.12 and an .897 save percentage across 41 AHL regular-season outings in 2024-25. Rodrigue will be Edmonton's third goaltender in the playoffs behind Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard.

Adin Hill LV GGolden Knights' Adin Hill: Starting in Vegas
8h agoHill will tend the home twine Tuesday against Minnesota in Game 2, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Over his last four appearances, including the regular season, Hill is 4-0-0 with a 2.00 GAA and a .904 save percentage. The 28-year-old made 18 saves on 20 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win in Game 1 -- Matt Boldy, who scored twice, was the only Wild player to put the puck past Hill in that contest. As long as Vegas' blue line remains healthy, Hill will continue to be a strong option between the pipes.
