Jaylin Noel HOU WRTexans' Jaylin Noel: Impresses at minicamp
6h agoNoel was a standout at the Texans' mandatory minicamp, Jared Koch of SI.com reports.
Noel reportedly connected with quarterback C.J. Stroud for multiple touchdowns during team drills at mandatory minicamp, which took place from June 9-11. The 2025 third-rounder displayed impressive versatility as a rookie, suiting up for all 17 regular-season games while compiling a 26-292-2 receiving line (on 35 targets), rushing six times for 12 yards, and racking up 799 kick-return yards and 335 yards on punt returns. He enters Year 2 competing with Tank Dell (knee) and Xavier Hutchinson for receiver reps behind Nico Collins and Jayden Higgins, with Koch reporting that Noel currently appears to be in the lead for the No. 3 role.

Daniel Scott IND SAFColts' Daniel Scott: Participating at minicamp
1d agoScott participated in the Colts' minicamp practice Thursday.
Scott missed most of his 2025 rookie season due to a persistent knee injury. The reserve safety appears to be back to full health, however, and he'll likely slot into a rotational role in the coming season.
-
Josh Simmons KC OTChiefs' Josh Simmons: Involved at minicamp
1d agoSimmons was seen participating in the Chiefs' minicamp Friday, Jesse Newell of The Athletic reports.
The 2025 first-round pick missed multiple games during his rookie season due to personal issues and then suffered a season-ending wrist injury in Week 13 against the Cowboys. Simmons is now back on the field for minicamp and appears ready to protect Patrick Mahomes in the 2026 season.

Samuel Cosmi WAS OTCommanders' Sam Cosmi: Participating in OTAs
1d agoCosmi was seen participating at Commanders OTAs on Friday.
Cosmi was placed on injured reserve in late December with a concussion. The guard's presence at OTAs shows he's back to full health and ready to start the season at right guard as expected.
-
Desmond Reid 2005 RBBills' Desmond Reid: Reverts to IR
1d agoReid (undisclosed) reverted to the Bills' injured-reserve list Friday after being waived Thursday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
The undrafted running back from the University of Pittsburgh will have to miss the entire 2026 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Bills. Reid played in seven games during his senior season at Pitt, recording 278 rushing yards and two touchdowns over 60 carries. He also recorded 23 receptions for 317 yards and two touchdowns.

Riley Leonard IND QBColts' Riley Leonard: Battling for No. 2 role
1d agoLeonard competed with Anthony Richardson for the No. 2 quarterback role during the Colts' recent minicamp and remains in contention to serve as the primary backup to Daniel Jones (Achilles), Joel A. Erickson of the IndyStar reports.
Jones remains unavailable for team drills, affording both Leonard and Richardson plenty of reps in their head-to-head competition. Head coach Shane Steichen said there is currently no clear winner, and both quarterbacks will resume their job battle in training camp as Jones works his way back from the Achilles injury that derailed the Colts' 2025 season.

Mason Englert TB RPRays' Mason Englert: Shuttled back to minors
6m agoTampa Bay optioned Englert to Triple-A Durham on Saturday.
In his most recent stint with the Rays, Englert pitched in two games, allowing just one run on four hits with a 6:2 K:BB over nine innings. He threw 65 pitches while covering four frames Friday against the Angels, so he was likely going to be unavailable for a few days, and Tampa Bay decided to send him down to make room for Craig Kimbrel (wrist) to return from the injured list. Englert could be back with Tampa Bay the next time the team needs a reliever capable of covering multiple innings on the big-league roster.
-
Craig Kimbrel TB RPRays' Craig Kimbrel: Returns from IL
11m agoThe Rays activated Kimbrel (wrist) from the 15-day injured list Saturday.
Kimbrel landed on the IL due to a right wrist strain in late May, and he ended up needing only the minimum amount of time on the shelf. The veteran reliever will now resume his low-leverage role in Tampa Bay's bullpen. He has pitched in just one game since joining the team off waivers May 26, tossing a scoreless inning against Baltimore.
-
Nolan Schanuel LAA 1BAngels' Nolan Schanuel: Back in action Saturday
23m agoSchanuel (calf) is starting at first base and batting fifth Saturday versus Tampa Bay, Jack Janes of TheSportingTribune.com reports.
Schanuel was removed from Tuesday's contest versus Houston with left calf tightness and missed the Angels' subsequent two games. However, he's feeling well enough to return to action as both a batter and fielder Saturday. As a result, Trey Mancini, who started at first base in each of the Angels' previous two games, is out of the lineup.
-
Daniel Susac SF CGiants' Daniel Susac: Resting up Saturday
24m agoSusac isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Susac will get a breather Saturday after going 0-for-3 with a strikeout during Friday's loss. Eric Haase will take over as the Giants' backstop and bat ninth.
-
Miguel Rojas LAD SSDodgers' Miguel Rojas: Exits with injury
27m agoRojas was removed from Saturday's game against the White Sox with an apparent injury, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Rojas appeared to be bothered by something during his plate appearance in the seventh inning and was lifted for a pinch runner after drawing a walk. It's unclear what exactly the veteran infielder is dealing with, but the Dodgers should provide more details in the near future.
-
Jose Ramirez CLE 3BGuardians' Jose Ramirez: Pulled from game Saturday
1h agoRamirez (undisclosed) was removed from Saturday's tilt against Detroit in the sixth inning, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
It's not immediately clear why Ramirez was removed, but he fouled out during a plate appearance in the bottom of the fifth inning and was pulled for a defensive substitute in the top of the sixth. His removal is the continuation of a brutal day for the Guardians, who earlier lost outfielders Chase DeLauter (ribs) and Angel Martinez (foot) due to injuries. Cleveland has consequently had to shuffle around players on defense -- Daniel Schneemann is playing third base, Kyle Manzardo has entered at first base, Steven Kwan has taken over in center field and Rhys Hoskins is in left field for his first appearance in the outfield since 2018.
-
Luke Kornet SA CSpurs' Luke Kornet: Iffy for Game 5
1d agoKornet (illness) is questionable for Saturday's Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Knicks, Raul Dominguez Jr. of the Associated Press reports.
Kornet is under the weather and may be held out of Saturday's do-or-die matchup. The veteran big man's absence wouldn't cause any significant waves in the rotation, though Victor Wembanyama and Carter Bryant could pick up a few extra minutes.
-
Karl-Anthony Towns NY CKnicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Double-doubles despite foul issues
3d agoTowns logged 13 points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 107-106 victory over the Spurs in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Towns picked up two fouls within the first minute of the game, ultimately limiting him to just 26 minutes. However, he certainly played a key role for the Knicks down the stretch, as New York recorded the biggest comeback victory in the history of the NBA Finals. Towns continues to play arguably the best basketball of his career and will aim to ride that momentum into San Antonio when the two teams meet again on Saturday.
-
Jalen Brunson NY PGKnicks' Jalen Brunson: Game-high 36 points in win
3d agoBrunson recorded 36 points (12-25 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 9-11 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and three steals over 44 minutes during Wednesday's 107-106 victory over the Spurs in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Brunson scored at least 30 points for the second straight game, as he continues to do everything humanly possible to bring the NBA title to New York. Despite some inefficient shooting, Brunson has remained calm and collected, highlighted by the improbable comeback Wednesday. Now leading the series 3-1, New York will head to San Antonio on a high, looking to wrap things up in five games.
-
Dylan Harper SA PGSpurs' Dylan Harper: Goes for 21 points in Game 4 loss
3d agoHarper logged 21 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 107-106 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Harper continues to make a name for himself on the biggest stage, providing the Spurs with much-needed offensive production. Wednesday's outing was his highest-scoring performance of the Finals. It continues what has been a stellar postseason for the rookie, a fact that will certainly not be lost on fantasy managers heading into the 2026-27 campaign. Now trailing 3-1 in the series, the Spurs will head home for what is obviously a must-win game Saturday.
-
Julian Champagnie SA SFSpurs' Julian Champagnie: Only five points in loss
3d agoChampagnie chipped in five points (2-9 FG, 1-7 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and four steals across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 107-106 loss to New York in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Champagnie was mostly a non-factor, tallying just five points. While he was able to contribute four steals on the defensive end, his production on the offensive end remains sketchy, at best. Through four games in the NBA Finals, he has averaged just 10.3 points and 2.8 three-pointers per contest.
-
Victor Wembanyama SA CSpurs' Victor Wembanyama: Double-doubles in Game 4 loss
3d agoWembanyama finished with 24 points (9-25 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 13 rebounds, three blocks and one assist across 44 minutes in Wednesday's 107-106 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Wembanyama struggled mightily with efficiency, particularly in the second half, when he shot 3-for-14 from the field and scored just eight points. Still, the superstar big man led the Spurs in points, rebounds and blocks while securing his second double-double of the Finals. Wembanyama and the Spurs will now turn their attention to Saturday's Game 5 in San Antonio, where they'll look to stave off elimination.

Carter Hart LV GGolden Knights' Carter Hart: Set to start in Game 6
4h agoHart will start at home against Carolina in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals on Sunday, per Dan Rosen of NHL.com.
Coaches typically don't reveal their starters during the playoffs, but John Tortorella confirmed his while defending Hart's recent performance. Although Hart has been strong in the 2026 playoffs with a 14-7 record, 2.59 GAA and .907 save percentage in 21 outings, he's surrendered four goals in each game of the finals. However, Tortorella feels the issue is that the team in front of Hart needs to play better. The Golden Knights are down 3-2 in the series, so they need to win to force a Game 7 on Wednesday.
-
Vinni Lettieri TOR CMaple Leafs' Vinni Lettieri: Three points in Game 1 win
18h agoLettieri scored twice and added an assist in AHL Toronto's 4-2 win over Chicago in Game 1 of the Calder Cup Finals on Friday.
Lettieri has maintained a point-per-game pace in the playoffs with 10 goals and 10 assists over 19 outings. He has earned four goals and three assists over seven contests since the start of the Eastern Conference Finals. Lettieri's playoff performance should help him attract a two-way deal in free agency at the start of July.
-
Nathan Clurman MON DNate Clurman: Heading to Sweden
23h agoClurman signed a one-year contract with Rogle BK of the SHL on Friday.
Clurman spent 2025-26 with AHL Laval, earning 11 points in 60 appearances. His lone NHL appearance came with the Penguins in 2024-25. The 28-year-old could still work his way back to the AHL in the future, but he's unlikely to be an NHL regular at any point.
-
James Malatesta CLB LWBlue Jackets' James Malatesta: Agrees to one-year contract
1d agoMalatesta signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Blue Jackets on Friday, per Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.
Malatesta had 10 goals, 18 points and 87 PIM in 57 regular-season outings with AHL Cleveland in 2025-26. He didn't play at the top level in 2025-26, but the 23-year-old has recorded two goals and four points in 13 career regular-season NHL games.
-
Jack Thompson VAN DCanucks' Jack Thompson: Inks one-year contract
1d agoThompson signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Canucks on Friday.
Thompson had six goals and 25 points in 56 regular-season AHL outings between San Jose and Abbotsford in 2025-26. He began the campaign with the Sharks' minor-league affiliate, but he switched to Abbotsford after Vancouver acquired him March 5 in exchange for Jett Woo. The 24-year-old Thompson also has four goals and 10 points in 34 career regular-season NHL appearances, but he didn't log any games at the top level in 2025-26.

Amir Miftakhov CAR G
Hurricanes' Amir Miftakhov: Returned to minors
1d agoMiftakhov was reassigned to AHL Chicago on Friday, per AHL.com.
Miftakhov gave the Canes four goaltenders on the roster ahead of Game 5 versus Vegas on Thursday, but he is expected to link back up with the Wolves, who are playing in the Calder Cup Finals. In 28 regular-season games for AHL Chicago this year, the 26-year-old backstop went 12-8-7 with a 3.25 GAA and .888 save percentage.
