    Griffin signed with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent Saturday.

    "Tulu" stands at 5-foot-10 and 181 pounds and ran a 4.43 forty at the combine after leading Mississippi State in receiving with a 50-658-4 line as a senior. His main selling point for the Raiders could be his returner skills after he showed some electricity with the ball in his hands during college.

    The Steelers signed Edwards as an undrafted free agent Saturday.

    Edwards was just a one-year starter at Georgia and overall functioned as part of a backfield committee. He concluded his four-year collegiate career with a 391-2,082-24 rushing line. Edwards is strong in pass-protection and joins a Pittsburgh backfield that is led by Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and newcomer Cordarrelle Patterson.

  • Travis Etienne JAC RB
    Jaguars' Travis Etienne: To get fifth-year option
    2h ago

    GM Trent Baalke said Saturday that the Jaguars will exercise the fifth-year option on Etienne's rookie contract, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

    The same can be said for fellow 2021 first-round pick Trevor Lawrence, which will become official by Thursday's deadline to lock in such options. After getting drafted three years ago, Etienne's pro debut was delayed due to a Lisfranc injury during the preseason in August 2021, but he's since rushed for more than 1,000 yards in both of the last two seasons while racking up 93 catches for 792 yards in 34 regular-season contests. He'll continue to lead Jacksonville's backfield for the next two campaigns ahead of Tank Bigsby once the aforementioned option is exercised.

    Yankees' Jon Berti: All set for rehab assignment
    14m ago

    Berti (groin) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Sunday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Berti has been down for the last two weeks with a left groin strain but is ready to play in some rehab games to show he's over the injury. Because he hasn't missed that much time, Berti probably won't need too many rehab at-bats before being activated.

    White Sox's Prelander Berroa: Expected to be recalled
    1h ago

    Berroa is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Charlotte prior to Sunday's game versus the Rays, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

    The White Sox need bullpen help after five relievers were needed in Saturday's extra-inning win over the Rays. Berroa allowed 11 runs over his first 4.1 innings with Charlotte this season but has been unscored upon in his last seven appearances. The hard-throwing righty was acquired from the Mariners over the offseason in the Gregory Santos trade and will be making his White Sox debut when/if he gets into a game.

    Rays' Jose Siri: Pulled due to lack of effort
    1h ago

    Rays manager Kevin Cash said he pulled Siri from Saturday's game versus the White Sox in the third inning due to a lack of effort, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Siri didn't show much hustle in going after an Eloy Jimenez double in the second inning and was removed for defense before the bottom of the third. Cash noted that he considers the matter closed and that there will be no carryover, so it sounds like Siri could be back in the lineup Sunday. The center fielder struck out in his lone plate appearance Saturday and has fanned at a 44.4 percent clip on the season.

    Angels' Miguel Sano: Gets left knee checked out
    1h ago

    Sano went to have his sore left knee examined Saturday afternoon, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Sano was in the starting lineup Friday after battling soreness in the knee for several days, but his knee "flared up again" after two at-bats, per manager Ron Washington. The Angels have not provided an update as of Saturday evening, and it's especially concerning given that Sano's left knee is what cost him the better part of the last two seasons. Sano got off to a decent start with the Angels and went yard last weekend for his first MLB homer in over two years, but his status is up in the air at the moment.

    Nationals' Jacob Young: Steals two bases, scores four runs
    2h ago

    Young went 2-for-4 with an RBI, four runs scored and two stolen bases in Saturday's 11-4 win over the Marlins.

    He had just two singles but managed to reach base in all five plate appearances, getting on via a hit-by-pitch, a fielder's choice and an error. It was the second multi-steal game this season for Young, who swiped three bags against the Giants back on April 9. Young is now a perfect 21-for-21 on stolen base attempts in 52 major-league games. The 24-year-old should continue to run wild as long as he's in the lineup, and his terrific defense in center field helps him in that regard. The rest of Young's offensive game is so limited, though, that he doesn't have much margin for error.

    Nationals' Jesse Winker: Swats grand slam Saturday
    2h ago

    Winker went 2-for-5 with a grand slam in Saturday's 11-4 victory over the Marlins.

    After walking CJ Abrams to load the bases in the top of the fifth inning, Edward Cabrera hung a curveball to Winker, who deposited it over the right-field wall to break the game open. Winker also had a single, giving him his first multi-hit game since April 16. He's now slashing .291/.404/.465 on the season for the Nationals.

  • Kristaps Porzingis BOS C
    Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Stuffs stat line Saturday
    15m ago

    Porzingis logged 18 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 victory over the Heat in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Porzingis was active on both ends of the court, and even though he cooled down after a strong start in which he scored Boston's first eight points, he still finished with a solid output despite playing just 27 minutes. The limit in playing time was probably related to the nature of the game since it was a blowout from the second quarter onwards, meaning Porzingis shouldn't have problems handling his regular workload in Game 4 on Monday. Porzingis has scored 18 points in two of his three appearances in the series.

  • Jayson Tatum BOS PF
    Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Posts double-double in Game 3 win
    17m ago

    Tatum logged 22 points (6-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-12 FT), 11 rebounds, six assists and one block in 39 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 victory over Miami in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Tatum co-led the Celtics in scoring Saturday with Jaylen Brown, but Tatum also made his presence felt in other categories, particularly in the rebounding column, another category in which he led the team. Tatum's eight makes from the charity stripe salvaged what could've been a subpar scoring performance for the star forward, and he'll aim to bounce back from a poor shooting display in Game 4 on Monday.

  • Jaylen Brown BOS SF
    Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Fills stat sheet in Game 3 win
    19m ago

    Brown posted 22 points (11-20 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 33 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 victory over the Heat in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Brown couldn't repeat the 33-point output from Game 2, but he delivered a well-rounded effort and surpassed the 20-point mark for the second consecutive contest, as he continues to play a prominent role on offense for the Celtics even when the team is at full strength. Brown should play a significant role on offense once again when these two teams meet again Monday. He's averaging 24.0 points per game in the series.

    Pelicans' CJ McCollum: Rough night Saturday
    3h ago

    McCollum produced 16 points (7-22 FG, 2-8 3Pt), five rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 35 minutes during Saturday's 106-85 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    McCollum went just 7-of-22 from the field, summing up another rough night for the Pelicans. After falling behind early, New Orleans was never able to get back into the game, shooting just 38.1 percent from the floor as a team. McCollum needs to be better, although, at this stage, he might not have it in him. Game 4 will be on Monday when the Pelicans will look to restore some pride.

    Ryan amassed zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one steal over three minutes during Saturday's 106-85 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Ryan failed to score in his three minutes, adding to what was a terrible night for the Pelicans. Playing in front of their home fans, the team offered little resistance. Now on the brink of elimination, New Orleans will look to turn things around Monday, in the hope of sending the series back to Oklahoma City.

    Liddell amassed one rebound in three minutes during Saturday's 106-85 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Liddell saw rare playing time in the loss, as the Pelicans were blown out on their home court. The fact that he was in the rotation tells you everything you need to know about where the Pelicans are at right now. They will look to salvage some pride when the two teams face off again in Game 4, also in New Orleans.

  • Ilya Samsonov TOR G
    Maple Leafs' Ilya Samsonov: Pulled after two periods
    8m ago

    Samsonov allowed three goals on 17 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins in Game 4.

    Samsonov lasted two periods before head coach Sheldon Keefe turned to Joseph Woll for the third. Woll stopped all five shots he faced, though the Bruins didn't apply much pressure while protecting a lead. Samsonov has gone 1-3 with 12 goals allowed over four playoff contests so far, so it's fair to question how much longer he'll be the starter with the Maple Leafs entering must-win mode. Keefe declined to name a starting goalie for Tuesday's Game 5 in his postgame comments.

  • Mason Lohrei BOS D
    Bruins' Mason Lohrei: Generates helper
    10m ago

    Lohrei logged an assist in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 4.

    Lohrei was solid Saturday, including a play where he forced a turnover and fed James van Riemsdyk's for the Bruins' opening goal. The 23-year-old Lohrei has added two shots on net, three hits, three blocked shots and four PIM over two playoff contests. It's unclear if he'll keep his spot in the lineup since Derek Forbort (undisclosed) has been cleared to play and Matt Grzelcyk also awaits an opportunity to draw into the lineup. Parker Wotherspoon and Kevin Shattenkirk could also be in danger of being scratched with the Bruins' defense corps getting healthier.

    Bruins' Charlie McAvoy: Earns power-play helper
    14m ago

    McAvoy logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two PIM, two blocked shots, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 4.

    McAvoy set up Brad Marchand's second-period tally, which ended up being the game-winner. With four helpers (three on the power play) through four playoff contests, McAvoy is stepping up on offense and playing steady defense, which has helped the Bruins establish a 3-1 series lead. The 26-year-old has added eight shots on net, 15 hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in the postseason.

    Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Gathers assist in Game 4
    19m ago

    Zacha notched an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 4.

    Zacha has earned two assists over four playoff outings so far. The center has added eight shots on net, seven hits and a minus-2 rating in those contests. Zacha continues to play alongside David Pastrnak, so there will be chances to contribute as long as the Bruins' offense keeps humming along -- they've outscored the Maple Leafs 14-7 in the first round so far.

    Coyle logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal, three hits and three blocked shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 4.

    Coyle has a helper in back-to-back contests following a four-game point drought. Both of those assists have been on the power play. Coyle has added six shots on net, 15 hits, six blocked shots and four PIM through four playoff outings while continuing to see top-six usage.

    Bruins' James van Riemsdyk: Gets on board Saturday
    23m ago

    Van Riemsdyk scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 4.

    Van Riemsdyk slotted home the Bruins' first goal at 15:09 of the first period. The tally was the winger's first since Feb. 17 versus the Kings, and it was the first time he'd earned a point since March 2 against the Islanders. When he plays, van Riemsdyk often occupies a bottom-six spot in the lineup. He had 11 goals, 27 helpers, 142 shots on net and a plus-7 rating in 71 regular-season appearances this year.
