Kyle Pitts ATL TE
Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Locked in for 2026
25m agoPitts signed his franchise tender with the Falcons for the 2026 season Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Pitts thus is locked in for the coming campaign at a salary of $15.045 million. After posting 1,026 receiving yards as a rookie first-round pick in 2021, he has fallen short of 1,000 yards in each of his subsequent four seasons, but he bounced back last year with an 88-928-5 line on 118 targets in 17 regular-season games. Pitts' potential signal-callers for 2026 are Michael Penix (knee) and newcomer Tua Tagovailoa, who will be competing for the starting job during the offseason program through the preseason.

Zah Frazier CHI CB
Zah Frazier: Waived by Bears
1h agoThe Bears waived Frazier on Thursday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Frazier, whom the Bears took in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, subsequently sat out all of last season after being placed on the non-football injury/illness list due a personal issue. Finley notes that in January, GM Ryan Poles said that Frazier had a "mountain to climb" to contribute in 2026 because he missed so much time last season. "He needed to play." Since then, the Bears added depth at Frazier's position by making fellow cornerback Malik Muhammad a fourth-round selection in last month's NFL Draft.

Drake Maye NE QB
Patriots' Drake Maye: Past his shoulder issue
6h agoWith regard to the right shoulder issue he managed ahead of Super Bowl LX, Maye noted Wednesday that he's doing "great," ESPN.com reports.
Mike Reiss of ESPN previously reported that Maye said he received a pain-killing injection for his throwing shoulder before his team's loss to the Seahawks in the Super Bowl, a game in which the QB completed 27 of 43 passing attempts for 295 yards, with two touchdowns and two interceptions. Since then, Maye indicates that he's had "no problems at all" on that front while confirming that he didn't require an offseason procedure. As the coming campaign approaches, the Patriots return a number of the key skill players that Maye worked with in 2025, with free-agent addition Romeo Doubs representing a notable addition to a wide receiver corps that no longer includes Stefon Diggs. Additionally, there's plenty of speculation that A.J. Brown could be headed to New England (via a trade with Philadelphia) on or after June 1, and if that ends up being the case, Maye's 2026 fantasy prospects would be boosted by the addition of a true WR1.

De'Zhaun Stribling SF WR
49ers' De'Zhaun Stribling: Pick motivated by intangibles?
7h agoThe 49ers' selection of Stribling at No. 33 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft was partially motivated by the organization's strong belief in his personality, leadership and work ethic, according to Matt Barrow of The Athletic.
It also doesn't hurt to have 4.36 speed at 6-foot-2, 207 pounds. Mock drafters nonetheless projected Stribling as a mid-round pick, for the most part, due to concerns about age (24 in December) and his lack of an elite statistical season in college (career highs of 882 yards and six TDs). Reasonable arguments both, though the latter concern is somewhat mitigated by his combination of early success (44-471-5 in 2021 at Washington State) and strong cumulative production (2,964 career receiving yards across three schools). It sounds like the 49ers are even more impressed by Stribling's intangibles/personality, having given him their "gold helmet" label -- a designation they use each year for a handful of prospects viewed as the best culture fits. The franchise clearly is invested in Stribling's success, but his immediate future may entail a not-so-glamorous competition for the No. 3 WR job in an offense that prefers FB Kyle Juszczyk over a third WR outside of clear passing situations. The 49ers also have Christian Kirk, Demarcus Robinson and 2025 fourth-round pick Jordan Watkins hoping to compete for depth roles behind Mike Evans and Ricky Pearsall, both of whom missed large portions of 2025.

Aaron Rodgers PIT QB
Steelers' Aaron Rodgers: Discussing new deal with Pittsburgh
8h agoRodgers is set to meet with Steelers officials in Pittsburgh this weekend as he looks to reach agreement on a deal to return to the team in 2026, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Per 93.7 The Fan Pittsburgh, Rodgers is expected to sign with the Steelers over the weekend, but Rapoport relays that no deal has been finalized. In late April, Pittsburgh placed an unrestricted free agent tender on Rodgers, but since signing the tender would put the quarterback under contract for approximately $15 million in 2026, it's likely just a placeholder until he and the Steelers can work out a deal with more favorable financial terms. Applying the tender to Rodgers would also entitle the Steelers to a compensatory draft pick if he signs elsewhere prior to July 22, though at this stage of the offseason, the 42-year-old isn't believed to have any serious suitors other than Pittsburgh. Until Rodgers puts pen to paper on a new deal, veteran Mason Rudolph will be the most experienced member of a Steelers quarterback room that includes 2025 sixth-round pick Will Howard and rookie third-round pick Drew Allar (ankle).

Hunter Wohler IND LB
Colts' Hunter Wohler: Eyeing return for training camp
22h agoWohler (foot) said Wednesday he believes he will be healthy when Indianapolis starts training camp in July, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
General manager Chris Ballard indicated a couple weeks ago that Wohler was at the end of his rehab process for the Lisfranc injury he suffered during preseason last year, and Wohler echoed those sentiments to reporters Wednesday. The Colts recently added promising safety prospect A.J. Haulcy in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, but they're still otherwise relatively thin at the position behind returning starter Camryn Bynum, so a strong start to training camp could still start Wohler on a trajectory toward earning a depth spot on the 53-man roster for 2026.

Mookie Betts LAD RF
Dodgers' Mookie Betts: Beginning assignment Friday
16m agoBetts (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.
Betts landed on the injured list April 5 due to a strained right oblique, and his time on the shelf was slightly extended due to a setback he suffered in late April. He was cleared to play in a sim game Thursday and is now ready to test his oblique in a competitive setting. The Comets confirmed that the eight-time All-Star will play for them Friday and Saturday, leaving the door open for him to return to the Dodgers' lineup by the end of their weekend series against Atlanta. Otherwise, he could be activated ahead of Los Angeles' four-game series versus San Francisco.

Spencer Jones NYY CF
Yankees' Spencer Jones: Getting the call
20m agoThe Yankees are calling up Jones on Tuesday from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
Jones's promotion comes to fill the void of Jasson Dominguez, who is heading to the injured list with a sprained AC joint. Jones, one of the Yankees' top prospects, has slashed .258/.366/.592 with 11 home runs, 41 RBI and seven stolen bases across 142 plate appearances for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on the season. The 24-year-old outfielder should figure to see some at-bats with both Dominguez and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) out with injuries.

John Klein MIN SP
Twins' John Klein: Returning to Triple-A
37m agoThe Twins optioned Klein to Triple-A St. Paul on Thursday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
The move comes in order to make room for Yoendrys Gomez, who was acquired by the Twins from the Rays on Wednesday. Klein made one appearance up with the big club on Saturday, in which he tossed a perfect inning against the Blue Jays.

Roman Anthony BOS RF
Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Heading to injured list
1h agoRed Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said Thursday that Anthony (wrist) will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Anthony hasn't played since suffering a sprained right wrist in Monday's game versus the Tigers. The injury hasn't gotten worse, but Anthony wasn't going to be able to play for at least a few more days, and the Red Sox didn't want to continue playing a man short. He will have a chance to be activated when first eligible late next week, though that possibility should become clearer over the next few days. Masataka Yoshida will continue to get increased reps at designated hitter while Anthony is shelved.

Zack Short DET 3B
Tigers' Zack Short: Clears waivers
1h agoShort cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Toledo, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Short was pushed off the 40-man roster Tuesday once Zach McKinstry came off the injured list. Now that he's cleared waivers, Short will have the option to decline his outright assignment and elect free agency, and it remains unknown what he will do. The 30-year-old infielder has had minimal success at the big-league level during his career, slashing just .171/.269/.295 through 597 plate appearances since debuting in 2021.
-
Yoniel Curet PHI SP
Tigers' Yoniel Curet: Outrighted to Toledo
1h agoCuret cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Toledo, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
The 23-year-old righty has been in the minors since the beginning of the season but lost his 40-man spot Saturday to make room for Ricky Vanasco. Curet will remain in the organization after passing through waivers and look to bounce back at Toledo after giving up three runs (one earned) in just two-thirds of an inning during his lone outing.

Josh Hart NY SF
Knicks' Josh Hart: Questionable for Friday
32m agoHart (thumb) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the 76ers.
Hart was able to return to Wednesday's Game 2 win after suffering an unspecified hand injury but now is listed on the injury report with a left thumb sprain. Through eight postseason games, the Villanova product is averaging 9.3 points, 8.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.8 steals across 33.8 minutes per contest. If Hart is ultimately unable to suit up, Miles McBride and Landry Shamet would be candidates for increased roles.
-
Mitchell Robinson NY C
Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Expected to play Game 3
34m agoRobinson (illness) is probable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the 76ers.
Robinson was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Game 2 and ended up sitting out the narrow win, but he's expected to return to action Friday. Across seven playoff games, Robinson has averaged 5.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 0.9 blocks in 13.6 minutes.
-
OG Anunoby NY SF
Knicks' OG Anunoby: Iffy for Game 3
36m agoAnunoby (hamstring) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the 76ers.
Anunoby suffered a hamstring injury in the waning moments of Game 2, and he's since been officially tagged as questionable for Game 3. More clarification on his availability for Friday should come closer to tipoff.
-
Joel Embiid PHI C
76ers' Joel Embiid: Questionable for Game 3
38m agoEmbiid (ankle) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against New York.
The team mentioned after Game 2 that Embiid would be considered day-to-day moving forward, so this questionable tag aligns with this previous report. Philadelphia should have a better idea of Embiid's availability for Game 3 after watching him take part in shootaround and warmups.

Dylan Harper SA PG
Spurs' Dylan Harper: Scores 11 points off bench
4h agoHarper supplied 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 133-95 win over the Timberwolves in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
The Spurs handled business early to tie the series, and the team went deep into the bench as a result of the lopsided score. Through seven playoff games, Harper is averaging 13.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 25.6 minutes per contest.
-
Keldon Johnson SA SF
Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Flirts with double-double off bench
4h agoJohnson produced nine points (2-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one block in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 133-95 win over the Timberwolves in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Johnson struggled with efficiency from the field but did solid work getting to the free-throw line and on the glass, ultimately finishing one point shy of a double-double. Wednesday marked the wing's first double-digit rebounding effort since Feb. 1 and just the seventh such performance of the year between the regular season and playoffs. Through seven postseason games in 2026, Johnson is averaging 7.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 19.6 minutes per contest off the bench.

Rasmus Dahlin BUF D
Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Slated to be available for Friday
3h agoDahlin (undisclosed) is expected to play in Game 2 against Montreal on Friday, per Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550.
Dahlin didn't complete Wednesday's 4-2 victory over Montreal after blocking a shot, but the 26-year-old said Thursday that he's not injured. He has a goal, four points, eight PIM, 25 shots, 10 hits and nine blocks in seven playoff outings this year. He also had 19 goals and 74 points in 77 regular-season appearances in 2025-26.
-
Kirby Dach MON C
Canadiens' Kirby Dach: Lights lamp Wednesday
4h agoDach scored a goal and added two hits in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres in Game 1.
Dach is up to three goals and one assist over eight playoff outings so far. He's been a regular in the Canadiens' bottom six since he returned from an upper-body injury in early April. The 25-year-old has added six shots on net, 17 hits, six PIM and a plus-4 rating this postseason.
-
Nick Suzuki MON C
Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Strikes on power play
4h agoSuzuki scored a power-play goal on three shots, added two PIM and logged two hits in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres in Game 1.
Suzuki has tallied in each of the last two games, though he wasn't able to do enough to help the Canadiens start the second round on a positive note. The 26-year-old center has two goals, five assists, 13 shots on net, 19 hits, 10 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating across eight playoff contests. He'll continue to see a massive role as the top-line center.
-
Jordan Greenway BUF LW
Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Pots game-winner
4h agoGreenway scored a goal and added five hits in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens in Game 1.
Greenway's tally at 3:32 of the second period held up as the game-winner. The goal was his first since Nov. 13 against the Avalanche. He had another injury-plagued regular season, getting limited to six points in 40 appearances while adding 32 shots on net, 56 hits, 22 blocked shots and 29 PIM in a bottom-six role. Greenway has managed two points, three shots on net and 20 hits across seven playoff contests.
-
Bowen Byram BUF D
Sabres' Bowen Byram: Tallies on power play
5h agoByram scored a power-play goal on two shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens in Game 1.
Byram has provided quality offense from the blue line this postseason with four goals, two assists and 17 shots on net over seven games. This was his first power-play point of the postseason. The defenseman also has six blocked shots, five hits and a plus-7 rating. He's a lock to see top-four minutes heading into Game 2.
-
Frederik Andersen CAR G
Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Expected between pipes
6h agoAndersen is set to tend the twine on the road for Thursday's Game 3 clash with the Flyers, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Andersen is undefeated in the postseason, going 6-0 with a ridiculous 1.02 GAA, .958 save percentage and two shutouts. In fact, going back to the regular season, the veteran backstop has won eight in a row, cementing himself as the No. 1 option for the Hurricanes. In the playoffs, the Flyers are generating the fourth-fewest shots on net per game at 26.3, so fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting a high-volume night for Andersen.
