Isas Waxter SEA DBSeahawks' Isas Waxter: Activated off NFI list
13h agoThe Seahawks activated Waxter (undisclosed) off the active/non-football injury list Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Waxter was forced to miss the start of training camp with an undisclosed injury but is now healthy again. He will spend the rest of the preseason competing for a spot on the Seahawks' roster after having signed with the team as an undrafted free agent in May.

D'Eryk Jackson SEA LBSeahawks' D'Eryk Jackson: Activated off NFI list
13h agoThe Seahawks activated Jackson (undisclosed) off the active/non-football injury list Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Jackson is clear to resume football activities after passing his physical. The 23-year-old joined the team as an undrafted free agent back in May, and now that he's healthy, Jackson will spend the remainder of the offseason competing for a roster spot.
-
Emery Jones Jr. BAL OTRavens' Emery Jones: Placed on NFI list
13h agoThe Ravens placed Jones (shoulder) on the active/non-football injury list Wednesday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Jones continues to recover from shoulder surgery and will now be forced to miss the start of training camp. The rookie third-round pick was expected to compete for the team's starting right guard job, but that is now unlikely to be the case as his status for the start of the regular season is up in the air.

Divaad Wilson DET CBDivaad Wilson: Let go by Detroit
13h agoThe Lions waived Wilson (undisclosed) from injured reserve with a settlement Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Wilson landed on injured reserve back in June, just days after first signing with team, but will now head to waivers. He will look to get healthy and catch on with another club after having spent time with both the Cardinals and Giants last season, racking up five tackles (four solo) and a pass deflection across five outings.
-
Montorie Foster Jr. SEA WRSeahawks' Montorie Foster: Activated off NFI list
13h agoThe Seahawks activated Foster (undisclosed) off the active/non-football injury list Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Foster spent the start of training camp on the NFI list but is now cleared to start practicing again. Now healthy, the 23-year-old will look to earn a spot on Seattle's roster after having signed with the team as an undrafted free agent in May.

Seahawks' Tyrone Broden: Activated off NFI list
14h agoThe Seahawks activated Broden (undisclosed) off the active/non-football injury list Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Broden is now cleared to return to football activities after having started training camp on the NFI list. The 24-year-old signed with the team as an undrafted free agent in April and will now spend the remainder of the offseason competing for a roster spot.

Troy Melton DET SP
Tigers' Troy Melton: Bullpen candidate in second half
29m agoMelton, who earned a promotion to Triple-A Toledo in June, could be an option for the Tigers' bullpen down the stretch, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Melton has enjoyed success this season, posting a 3.23 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in 10 starts for Double-A Erie, and then lowering those figures to 3.06 and 1.12, respectively, through seven appearances (six starts) for Toledo. The 24-year-old righty has shown good strikeout ability as well, recording 93 of them in 71.1 innings across both levels. Detroit may not have a spot for Melton in the rotation this year, though he could be an effective bullpen weapon for the Tigers down the stretch as they make their postseason push, similar to what the team did with Jackson Jobe in 2024. Melton would have to be added to the 40-man roster, however.

Owen Caissie CHC OFCubs' Owen Caissie: Potential trade bait?
40m agoWith the Cubs seeking to make a push toward the World Series this season, Caissie is a candidate to get moved before the trade deadline, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
Caissie has been on fire for Triple-A Iowa, posting a .951 OPS and 19 home runs through 73 games. The 23-year-old outfielder seems ready to make his MLB debut, though he's currently blocked by the likes of Ian Happ, Pete Crow-Armstrong, Kyle Tucker and Seiya Suzuki. The Cubs figure to be active at the deadline as they look to make a push this year, and rival teams will certainly inquire about Caissie as part of any deal, with the potential of him slotting in at the MLB level right away. If he's not traded, Caissie may debut for Chicago in 2026, particularly if Tucker departs in free agency during the offseason.

Connor Norby MIA 3BMarlins' Connor Norby: Out 6-to-8 weeks after hand surgery
1h agoNorby will be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks after undergoing surgery on a broken left hamate bone Wednesday, Craig Mish of FanDuel Sports Network Florida reports.
Norby landed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with what was referred to as left wrist inflammation at the time, but a visit with a specialist revealed the need for surgery. He will be shelved until at least late August, and often players struggle to regain their power stroke initially upon returning from a hamate operation. Graham Pauley should be the Marlins' primary third baseman while Norby is sidelined.
-
Gavin Sheets SD DHPadres' Gavin Sheets: Back from paternity leave
2h agoThe Padres activated Sheets from the paternity list Wednesday.
Sheets missed the final game prior to the All-Star break while he welcomed a new addition to the family, but he will be ready to roll for the first game of the second half. The 29-year-old was a pleasant surprise for the Padres in the first half, collecting a .775 OPS with 14 home runs. Sheets has been an everyday player for the Padres since late April, but it's possible a trade deadline acquisition could push him to the long side of a platoon. The left-handed-hitting Sheets has an .810 OPS against righties as compared to a .689 OPS versus lefties in 2025.
-
Jesus Tinoco MIA RPMarlins' Jesus Tinoco: Shifts to 60-day IL
13h agoThe Marlins transferred Tinoco (forearm) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
A right forearm strain sent Tinoco to the injured list in early June. The 30-year-old reliever has been throwing since mid-June and is nearing a return to mound work, though his move to the 60-day IL will ensure he remains out until at least Aug. 5. His 40-man roster spot will be handed to Michael Petersen, who was acquired in a trade with Atlanta on Wednesday.

Blake Treinen LAD RPDodgers' Blake Treinen: Makes third rehab appearance
15h agoTreinen (forearm) pitched one inning Tuesday, allowing one run on one hit and striking out one batter, in a minor-league rehab outing with the Dodgers' rookie-level Arizona Complex League club.
Treinen's first two rehab appearances came with Triple-A Oklahoma City, but he moved to the ACL team for Tuesday's outing because Los Angeles' other minor-league affiliates are out of action during the MLB All-Star break. The righty reliever served up a solo homer to Guardians prospect Dauri Fernandez but retired the other three batters he faced. Treinen has completed exactly one inning in each of his three rehab outings to date, giving up a combined two runs (one earned) on one hit with a 4:1 K:BB. He'll likely be back with the Dodgers at or shortly after the start of the second half of the big-league campaign.

Brice Sensabaugh UTA SGJazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Still sidelined
11h agoSensabaugh (knee) didn't play in Wednesday's 86-76 Summer League win over Washington.
Sensabaugh hasn't played in the Las Vegas Summer League after tearing up the Salt Lake City Classic earlier this month. He's been dealing with soreness in his right knee. It's not clear if he'll play in Utah's Summer League finale this weekend.
-
AJ Johnson WAS PGWizards' AJ Johnson: Another big game in SL
11h agoJohnson generated 25 points (10-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-5 FT), with five rebounds and three assists over 35 minutes of Wednesday's 86-76 Summer League loss to Utah.
Johnson dropped 20 points Tuesday and followed up the performance with a Summer-League high in the category. Entering his second NBA season, Johnson will have a tough time cracking the Wizards' rotation, but at age 20, he has shown plenty of promise as a long-term project.
-
Isaiah Collier UTA PGJazz's Isaiah Collier: Drops 17 points in SL win
11h agoCollier tallied 17 points (7-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 86-76 Summer League win over the Wizards.
Collier was one of four players for his squad to score in double digits. The USC product had his best scoring outing of the Las Vegas Summer League so far while helping lead his team to a 10-point win.
-
Leaky Black NBADRAFT SFWizards' Leaky Black: Records SL double-double
11h agoBlack contributed 10 points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists, four blocks and two steals over 33 minutes in Wednesday's 86-76 Summer League loss to the Jazz.
Black didn't shoot particularly well Wednesday but filled up the stat sheet, most notably grabbing 11 rebounds and swatting four shots. He spent the 2024-25 season with the Wizards' G League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go, and hasn't appeared in an NBA regular-season game since suiting up for the Hornets during the 2023-24 campaign.
-
Cody Williams UTA SFJazz's Cody Williams: Scores team-high 23 points in win
11h agoWilliams finished with 23 points (9-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 86-76 Summer League win against the Wizards.
Williams was one of four players for his squad to score in double figures. The Colorado product has now scored 22 or more points in his last two games during the Las Vegas Summer League.
-
Jeremiah Fears NO PGPelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Drops 22 points in SL loss
11h agoFears tallied 22 points (8-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds and six assists across 30 minutes in Wednesday's 95-81 Summer League loss to the Thunder.
Fears connected on just one three-pointer but delivered an efficient all-around scoring performance Wednesday in what's been an up-and-down Summer League. The No. 7 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft was viewed as a high-upside, high-risk prospect, so some early inconsistency is to be expected.
-
Ty Smith CAR DTy Smith: Bound for Russia
23m agoSmith agreed to terms on a contract with Dinamo Minsk (KHL) on Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Smith was not given a qualifying offer by the Penguins this offseason, and it appears he has been unable to land an NHL deal. The 25-year-old blueliner saw action in eight games for the Hurricanes last year in which he generated one goal on 14 shots, one assist and two hits while averaging just 13:40 of ice time. Given his age, it's possible Smith will get another shot at an NHL deal, but he will need to impress in the KHL first.
-
Louis Domingue NYR GLouis Domingue: Inks KHL contract
26m agoDomingue signed a one-year contract with Sibir Novosibirsk of the KHL on Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
The 33-year-old netminder played one game with the Rangers during the 2024-25 regular season, stopping 25 shots in a 6-2 win over Chicago on January 5. He spent most of the season with AHL Hartford, going 7-20-1 with a 3.32 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 28 appearances.
-
Carter Bear DET LW
Red Wings' Carter Bear: Signs entry-level deal
20h agoBear signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Red Wings on Wednesday.
Bear was selected by Detroit with the 13th overall pick in last month's draft, and he was able to reach an agreement with the Red Wings several weeks after joining the organization. The 18-year-old's 2024-25 campaign was cut short due to a lacerated Achilles, and he'll likely spend most of the 2025-26 season developing in juniors.
-
Jake Leschyshyn NYR CSabres' Jake Leschyshyn: Pens one-year deal
21h agoLeschyshyn inked a one-year, two-way deal with the Sabres on Wednesday, per PuckPedia.
Leschyshyn was let go by the Rangers this offseason after the team failed to issue him a qualifying offer. Considering the 26-year-old center failed to make an NHL appearance for the club last season -- and played in just one game for the Rangers the year prior -- his departure shouldn't come as a surprise. While NHL minutes could be easier to come by for Leschyshyn with Buffalo, he still figures to spend the bulk of his time in the minors with AHL Rochester.
-
Cameron Hebig UTA C
Mammoth's Cameron Hebig: Lands two-way contract
22h agoHebig signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Mammoth on Wednesday, PuckPedia reports.
Hebig spent last season with AHL Tucson, his fifth consecutive year with the minor-league club. He recorded 26 goals, 21 assists and 34 PIM over 67 appearances. He hasn't yet made his NHL debut, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.
-
Joseph Veleno MON CCanadiens' Joe Veleno: Lands with hometown team
1d agoVeleno inked a one-year contract with Montreal on Wednesday.
Veleno split the 2024-25 campaign between Detroit and Chicago, racking up eight goals and nine helpers in 74 combined regular-season games. After being traded to Seattle and then bought out by the Kraken, the 25-year-old center was free to return to his native Montreal. With the Habs, Veleno should challenge for a middle-six role and figures to push for the 20-point threshold after missing that mark last time around.
