  • Michael Gallup DAL WR
    Raiders' Michael Gallup: Lands in Las Vegas
    2h ago

    Gallup agreed to terms on a one-year, $3 million contract with the Raiders on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    After a six-year stint in Dallas to start his career, Gallup will get a fresh start in Las Vegas. His second year with the Cowboys generated plenty of optimism, as he tallied 1,107 yards receiving to go along with six touchdowns. However, he has failed to replicate those types of numbers since. With Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers locked in as the team's top pass catchers, Gallup will compete with the likes of Tre Tucker and DJ Turner, among others, for the No. 3 pass catching role.

  • Curtis Samuel BUF WR
    Bills' Curtis Samuel: Get competition via draft
    3h ago

    Samuel has a new teammate in the receiving room after the Bills took Keon Coleman out of Florida State with the first pick of the second round Friday.

    Samuel, signed as a free agent in March, was never going to be a No. 1 or even a No. 2 in Buffalo, but now we at least know who's been brought in ahead of him on the depth chart. It's a mild surprise the Bills chose only one receiver with their 10 draft picks, so for now the versatile Samuel likely sits No. 3 in the pecking order behind Khalil Shakir and Coleman. That said, this is a perfect offense for Samuel's skill set and he'll be a weapon of some sort once things get going, just not the primary receiving option.

    Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Has 2025 option exercised
    4h ago

    The Falcons exercised Pitts' 2025 fifth-year option, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    It's a no-brainer move for the Falcons, even if Pitts, the No. 8 overall pick of the 2021 Draft, is coming off back-to-back disappointing seasons after going over 1,000 yards as a rookie. The hope in Atlanta is that the acquisition of Kirk Cousins coupled with the new coaching staff can help maximize Pitts' abilities. Pitts' figures to be a popular 2024 rebound candidate in both real life and fantasy football.

    3m ago

    The Dodgers have received reports that Treinen is faring well on his rehab assignment, and he's expected to make another appearance for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Treinen has given up five runs over 2.1 innings during his first three outings with Triple-A Oklahoma City, but the team is pleased with how he's pitched, per Harris. It remains to be seen whether Wednesday's appearance at Triple-A will be Treinen's last before being activated from the 15-day injured list.

    1h ago

    Varland will return to the major-league roster after being sent down to Oklahoma City on April 8.

    1h ago

    Brasier was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a right calf strain, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    It's unclear as to when Brasier picked up the injury, especially since he looked solid during Saturday's outing when he fired a scoreless inning against the Blue Jays. Gus Varland was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move.

    Reds' Brandon Williamson: Set for rehab assignment
    1h ago

    Williamson (shoulder) is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on May 9, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Williamson has missed the entirety of the 2024 campaign to this point while nursing a left shoulder strain, but he appears to be on the cusp of returning to the mound. He'll likely need to make a few starts with Louisville before he can be activated from the injured list. The southpaw produced a 4.46 ERA and 1.28 WHIP with 98 strikeouts over 117 innings in 23 starts with the Reds last season and he figures to be a valuable addition to their starting rotation once healthy.

Gibaut is set to undergo another examination in the coming days, at which point the club should have a better idea on the next steps in his rehab.

Boston should have more information on the big man's status over the next day or so.

  • Mark Giordano TOR D
    Maple Leafs' Mark Giordano: Can't crack postseason lineup
    11m ago

    Giordano has not been able to crack the postseason lineup against the Bruins in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Giordano, who missed significant time this season to injury and following his father's death, has 1,148 regular-season NHL games, but only 37 postseason games to his name. He started in 2005-06, and he headed off to the KHL in 2007-08 where he played 50 games for Moscow Dynamo. Giordano is nearing the end of his career, but with newcomers Ilya Lyubushkin and Joel Edmundson on the blue line, he has found it hard to crack the top-six. The Leafs are on the verge of elimination, down 3-1 to the Bruins this postseason, so Father Time is catching up with Giordano.

Oettinger was on a ridiculous run heading into the playoffs, going 10-1-0 with a 1.54 GAA and a .941 save percentage over his last 11 games during the regular season.

    Maple Leafs' Noah Gregor: Healthy scratch this postseason
    35m ago

    Gregor, who put up six goals and six assists in 63 games this season, has been a healthy scratch in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Gregor is an energy player with 241 NHL games under belt, but he hasn't dressed in a playoff game. And with the Leafs on the brink down 3-1 to the Bruins, Gregor's postseason debut may need to wait for another year. He's a free agent this summer, coming off a one-year, $775,000 AAV deal, and time will tell if he will be re-signed in Toronto.
