Rasul Douglas BUF CBBills' Rasul Douglas: Key acquisition in 2023
7h agoDouglas posted 61 tackles, 1.0 sacks, 14 passes defensed, five interceptions, a pick-six and three fumble recoveries over 16 regular-season games split between the Packers and Bills.
The Bills acquired Douglas from Green Bay in a Halloween trade, and the veteran played a key role in helping the Bills turn around their season and win a fourth straight AFC East title. With Buffalo losing several key pieces this offseason, Douglas will remain a clear-cut starter and locker room leader entering his eighth NFL season. He's had four-plus picks in each of the last three seasons.

Jacob Phillips CLE LBTexans' Jacob Phillips: Houston bound
15h agoPhillips (pectoral) inked a one-year deal with the Texans on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Phillips spent last year on Cleveland's injured reserve due to a torn pectoral muscle. It was his second straight season-ending pectoral injury, as the same injury ended his 2022 campaign early. The 2020 third-round pick's addition to the Texans' offseason roster indicates his health is back to up to par. He will now compete for a role at linebacker in Houston.

Mitchell Wilcox NE TEPatriots' Mitchell Wilcox: Inks new deal
18h agoWilcox signed a contract with the Patriots on Monday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Wilcox now will call New England home after spending the first three campaigns of his career In Cincinnati. The 27-year-old appeared in all 17 regular-season games in 2023, mostly operating as the Bengals' No. 3 option at tight end and recording nine catches (on 12 targets) for 56 yards. If he can make the Patriots' roster this year, he'll likely be a depth option for them, too.

Cole Holcomb PIT LBSteelers' Cole Holcomb: Future status still in question
18h agoHolcomb (knee) still doesn't have a timeline for when he may be able to return to the field, Adam Borst of SteelersNow.com reports.
Holcomb suffered a significant knee injury Week 9 against the Titans that required season-ending surgery to repair. Since then, there has been speculation that the damage done was enough to keep the North Carolina product on the sidelines permanently, bringing an early end to his career. However, according to GM Omar Khan, Holcolmb is "working extremely hard to get back. I don't really have much to add on a timeline." Khan further stated, "It was a major injury, but he is working hard and I'm optimistic about all the effort he's going to put into getting back on the field."

Brandon Aiyuk SF WR49ers' Brandon Aiyuk: Discussing deal with team
19h agoGM John Lynch said Monday that the 49ers are having "good talks" with Aiyuk, who hasn't been at the team facility for the offseason program, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Aiyuk is unlikely to show up for voluntary workouts without a new contract in hand, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll hold out from mandatory minicamp in June if the two sides haven't reached an agreement by then. The 26-year-old's agent denied reports of a trade request last weekend, and it sounds like there's still hope for a long-term contract heading into the fifth and final year of Aiyuk's rookie deal. He's scheduled to make $14.12 million under the fifth-year option, whereas a multi-year deal likely would entail a large signing bonus and an annual average value well north of $20 million. Making it work for the 2024 season isn't an issue, but the Niners may be hesitant to pay Aiyuk at market value long term when they already have six players scheduled for cap hits north of $20 million in 2025, including WR Deebo Samuel and TE George Kittle. Even then, it's a workable situation, as they've got a starting QB on a late-round-rookie contract and don't owe large sums of guaranteed money beyond the current year to anyone besides DE Nick Bosa.

Zach Wilson NYJ QBBroncos' Zach Wilson: Traded to Denver
19h agoThe Jets are trading Wilson to the Broncos for a late-round pick swap, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.
The Jets will give up the 256th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and receive pick No. 203. They'll also hold some of Wilson's salary, with the 24-year-old scheduled for $5.45 million in guaranteed compensation for the final year of his rookie contract. This could give Wilson a shot to compete for a starting job, depending on what the Broncos do in the upcoming draft. Jarrett Stidham and Ben DiNucci are the other QBs on Denver's roster, with Stidham the favorite to start Week 1 if no early draft pick is added to the room.

Sam Huff TEX CRangers' Sam Huff: Sent back to minors
32m agoThe Rangers optioned Huff to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday.
Huff was up for a handful of days and did not receive a plate appearance. He'll go back to getting regular reps at Round Rock.
-
Owen White TEX RPRangers' Owen White: Optioned to Triple-A
40m agoThe Rangers optioned White to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday.
White was up with the big club for just a few days and did not make an appearance. He's clearing out to make room for Jonathan Hernandez's return from the injured list.
-
Jonathan Hernandez TEX RPRangers' Jonathan Hernandez: Activated from injured list
42m agoThe Rangers activated Hernandez (lat) from the 15-day injured list Monday.
Hernandez got a late start to the season due to a right lat strain but is ready to roll now after allowing just three runs with a 14:4 K:BB over 10 rehab innings with Triple-A Round Rock. The righty could eventually work his way into high-leverage situations but will probably be used earlier in games initially.
-
Jorbit Vivas NYY 2BYankees' Jorbit Vivas: Activated from Triple-A IL
1h agoVivas (eye) has been activated from the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Vivas suffered an orbital fracture late in spring training but is now ready for game action. The 23-year-old utility player is on the 40-man roster and could eventually push for his first big-league promotion this season.
-
Wikelman Gonzalez BOS SPRed Sox's Wikelman Gonzalez: Rough start to season
3h agoGonzalez has an 11.12 ERA and 2.88 WHIP over three appearances (two starts) at Double-A Portland.
Control has long been a challenge for Gonzalez, who is showing it to be more so at the start of the 2024 season. He walked eight batters over his first two starts -- he lasted just two-thirds of an inning in his second start -- and has nine overall in 5.2 innings. The right-hander had an encouraging third outing Sunday, when he walked only one over three scoreless innings as a piggyback starter.
-
Triston Casas BOS 1BRed Sox's Triston Casas: MRI confirms significant injury
3h agoCasas (rib) underwent an MRI on Monday that confirmed the expectation that he'll be out for a significant length of time, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
The Red Sox haven't placed a timetable on Casas' return, but it seems likely he'll blow past the 10-day minimum on the injured list. For now, the team plans to get by with a combination of Bobby Dalbec, Pablo Reyes and possibly Rob Refsnyder, who has been working at the position since the start of spring training. Another option is for Boston to wait and see what happens after May 1, when several players could exercise opt-out clauses.

Jalen Suggs ORL SGMagic's Jalen Suggs: Expects to play in Game 3
44m agoSuggs said after Monday's 96-86 loss to the Cavaliers that he doesn't think his sprained left knee injury will keep him from playing Thursday in Game 3 of the series, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Suggs suffered the injury in the first quarter Monday, when he collapsed to the floor after making contact with Cleveland's Donovan Mitchell. He grabbed at his leg in visible pain after the play and didn't put any weight on his leg as he was assisted to the locker room, but he was able to return to the contest after halftime while sporting a compression sleeve on his leg. He ended up playing well down the stretch, finishing with nine points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes. Adrenaline might have played a part in Suggs feeling well enough to return, so the Magic will wait and see how his knee responds over the next two days before deciding whether he's fit to play in Game 3 with the Magic facing a 2-0 series deficit.

Kelly Oubre Jr. PHI SG76ers' Kelly Oubre: Does little in loss
2h agoOubre logged four points (2-7 FG), two rebounds, three assists and three blocks across 26 minutes during Monday's 104-101 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
Oubre's unproductive evening marked his second consecutive subpar performance in the quarterfinals. He joined a mediocre group of starters who scored only 22 points compared to the 69 points accrued by Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. Improved stat lines from Oubre will be necessary for the Sixers to even the series at home.
-
Joel Embiid PHI C76ers' Joel Embiid: Records double-double in 39 minutes
3h agoEmbiid totaled 34 points (12-29 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 8-12 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists and one block over 39 minutes during Monday's 104-101 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
Embiid showed no ill effects fro his lingering knee injury and logged a dull load in the loss, but his prolific line wasn't enough to turn the tide. Embiid and Tyrese Maxey got no help from their teammates as the rest of the roster ended with fewer points than Embiid alone.
-
Tyrese Maxey PHI PG76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Records 35/10 double-double in loss
3h agoMaxey notched 35 points (12-22 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds and 10 assists in 44 minutes during Monday's 104-101 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
Maxey scored 15 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter and was the primary catalyst in a massive rally that erased the Knicks' lead. His three pointer with 1:09 remaining appeared to seal a Game 2 win for the Sixers, but New York's defense turned the tables in the end. Although Joel Embiid is rounding back into form, Maxey's produtcion will be essential to get the team back into the series. The Maxey-Embiid duo also needs help from the rest of the supporting cast, who only scored 32 total points in the loss.
-
Jalen Brunson NY PGKnicks' Jalen Brunson: High scorer despite poor shooting
3h agoBrunson posted 24 points (8-29 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-9 FT), eight rebounds and six assists over 38 minutes during Monday's 104-101 win over the 76ers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
A productive night at the charity stripe and decent secondary production helped to mask Brunson's dreadful shooting night. The usually prolific guard has converted only 29.1 percent of his shots in the quarterfinals, and although the Knicks have pulled off a 2-0 lead amid the slump, the team's outlook will be much better if his shooting stroke gets back on track.
-
Josh Hart NY SFKnicks' Josh Hart: Logs stellar 21/15 double-double
3h agoHart provided 21 points (7-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 15 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 48 minutes during Monday's 104-101 victory over the 76ers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
Hart enjoyed another heroic stat line after posting a 22/13 double-double in Game 1. Jalen Brunson's shooting slump has rendered Hart as the most consistent producer for New York in the quarterfinals, and his 19 first-half points kept the team relevant
-
Ivan Fedotov PHI GFlyers' Ivan Fedotov: Secures two-year extension
9m agoFedotov agreed to terms on a two-year, $6.5 million contract extension with Philadelphia on Tuesday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.
Fedotov played just three games for the Flyers this season after coming over from the KHL, going 0-1-1 with a 4.96 GAA and .811 save percentage. With an extension in hand, it seems Fedotov and Samuel Ersson will battle it out for the starting gig during training camp in the fall.
-
Andrew Peeke BOS DBruins' Andrew Peeke: Suffers finger injury
12m agoPeeke was unavailable for the third period of Game 2 against the Leafs on Monday due to an apparent finger injury, Jim McBride of the Boston Globe reports.
Peeke managed just 10:20 of ice time before being forced out of Monday's contest. If the defenseman is unable for Game 3 on Wednesday, the recently returned Derek Forbort (undisclosed) could be activated off long-term injured reserve. Alternatively, Parker Wotherspoon could be an option to slot into a spot on the blue line.
-
Jakub Voracek ARI RWJakub Voracek: Officially retires
19m agoVoracek (concussion) officially announced his retirement Tuesday, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports.
Voracek hasn't played in an NHL game since Nov. 4, 2022, due to concussion concerns. The winger spent the entire year on LTIR while officially a member of the Arizona Coyotes, though he never played for the organization. Voracek will retire having logged 1058 games for the Flyers and Blue Jackets in which he tallied 223 goals and 583 assists.
-
Pavel Zacha BOS CBruins' Pavel Zacha: Lone helper not enough in Game 2
2h agoZacha added an assist in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Maple Leafs for Game 2 of the conference quarterfinals.
Zacha roused the home crowd with a spinning backhand pass to David Pastrnak for a one-timer that goalie Ilya Samsonov had virtually no chance of stopping. Unfortunately for Bruins fans, the top-line center was otherwise quiet in the contest, and Zacha's full minute on the man advantage didn't bear fruit. This is the lone playoff series with the teams tied, 1-1, after two games.
-
Tyler Bertuzzi TOR LWMaple Leafs' Tyler Bertuzzi: Notches assist in Game 2 win
3h agoBertuzzi emerged with a power-play assist in Monday's 3-2 win over the Bruins for Game 2 of the conference quarterfinals.
Bertuzzi, who was with Boston this time last year, nearly had a two-point night, but what initially appeared to be a power-play tally from the winger ended up getting overturned since he had the puck with a high stick during the play. Still, in a matter of minutes, he found John Tavares with a primary apple on the man advantage for the game-tying goal. Bertuzzi's fiery playing style works well in a playoff setting, but it will be important for him to stay aggressive without losing his cool and getting whistled for costly penalties.
-
Alex Laferriere LA RWKings' Alex Laferriere: Adds apple in loss
7h agoLaferriere notched an assist, five shots on goal and eight hits in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 1.
Laferriere made an impact in his first playoff game -- he was tied for the team lead in hits and shots. The 22-year-old received a top-line assignment at even strength but saw just 11:29 of ice time. Laferriere had 23 points, 113 hits and 147 shots on net in 81 regular-season contests, so he should be able to provide some depth scoring in the postseason.
