    Jermod McCoy: New concerns about knee
    4h ago

    Doctors have some concern that McCoy may eventually need surgery to replace a bone plug that was used to repair a cartilage defect in his knee, Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network report.

    McCoy is considered one of the top cornerbacks available in the upcoming draft and widely viewed as a first-round talent despite missing all of last season following surgery for an ACL tear. Pelissero and Rapoport indicate that McCoy's repaired ACL is fine but that a bone plug in the same knee may need to eventually be replaced via surgery, which would require "an extensive recovery." It remains to be seen how far -- if at all -- McCoy's draft stock will slip due to the concern, as teams who have interest in the Tennessee product will need to weigh the risk of drafting a player with a potential long-term knee issue versus the reward of securing a potential shutdown defender.

  • Daniel Jones IND QB
    Colts' Daniel Jones: Team optimistic about Week 1
    7h ago

    Colts general manager Chris Ballard said Monday that Jones is progressing well in his recovery from the torn Achilles the quarterback suffered in December and added that the club is shooting for the QB to be ready to play by Week 1 of the upcoming season, James Palmer of The Athletic reports.

    Palmer notes that the Colts aren't putting a timeline on Jones' return to game action, but Ballard's comments indicate that the signal-caller could be ready from the outset of the campaign. Ballard said that Jones is currently throwing and moving and is in a "really good spot," echoing the viewpoint the QB shared on The Pat McAfee Show in mid-March. Indianapolis placed the transition tag on Jones in early March before signing him to a two-year deal less than two weeks later, making it clear that the organization views him as a central part of the team's future.

    Panthers' Brycen Tremayne: Signs tender with Panthers
    9h ago

    Tremayne inked his exclusive-rights free-agent tender with Carolina on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Tremayne will officially return to Carolina for at least another season after being tendered by the club in early March. The 26-year-old was a regular part of the offense for the first time as a pro last year, tallying 14 catches for 160 yards over 262 offensive snaps spanning 16 regular-season games. He also played regularly on special teams and likely will retain the same role as a depth wideout and special-teamer during the upcoming season.

    Panthers' Jalen Coker: Inks ERFA tender
    9h ago

    Coker signed his exclusive-rights free-agent tender with the Panthers on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Coker was tendered by Carolina in early March and made his return to the team official Monday. The 24-year-old posted a 33-394-3 receiving line over 11 regular-season contests last year, nearly replicating his stats from his rookie 2024 campaign. However, Coker exploded for a 9-134-1 line in the Panthers' wild-card round loss to the Rams, and he could take another step forward as one of QB Bryce Young's top targets during the upcoming campaign.

    Jamon Johnson: Waived by Green Bay
    9h ago

    The Packers waived Johnson (undisclosed) on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Johnson did not revert to a reserve list Monday, so the linebacker is officially a free agent. He made his defensive debut in 2025 during the Packers' Week 18 loss to the Vikings. The 24-year-old played 100 percent of defensive snaps in the contest, totaling 10 tackles (three solo) and one pass defensed.

    Jaguars' Anton Harrison: Fifth-year option excercised
    10h ago

    The Jaguars picked up the fifth-year option connected to Harrison's rookie contract Monday.

    Harrison has been a consistent presence at left tackle for three years, and another year of salary regulation for a key player protecting quarterback Trevor Lawrence makes a lot of sense. The 24-year-old is set to make $4.199 million in 2026 before his fifth-year option grants him $19.072 million in 2027. If Harrison's consistency remains, the Jaguars likely will pay him for future years beyond the confines of his rookie deal.

  • Josh Naylor SEA 1B
    Mariners' Josh Naylor: Notches first steal of season
    1h ago

    Naylor went 3-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a stolen base in a loss to the Athletics on Monday.

    Naylor knocked in a run in the first inning with his first double of the season. He added two more knocks (including another double) to finish with his first multi-hit game of the campaign. To add to his big night, Naylor stole his first base of the season following an eighth-inning single. He was a big surprise in the theft department when he collected a career-high 30 stolen bases during the regular season last year, but this was Naylor's first attempt in 2026. That's partly because he hasn't gotten on base much -- entering Monday, he was batting just .146 with a .231 OBP. Naylor is still at a poor .174 batting average even after Monday's big effort, but he may be turning things around, as he's gone 6-for-10 with two walks over his past three contests.

    Athletics' Carlos Cortes: Goes deep in four-hit effort
    1h ago

    Cortes went 4-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 win against Seattle.

    Cortes opened the scoring for the Athletics with a 379-foot solo shot in the fourth inning. He added three singles to finish with his first career four-hit performance. Cortes didn't play much early in the campaign but has started five of the A's past six games, either in left field or right field or at DH. He rarely hits against lefties (Cortes has just two plate appearances against southpaws this season and has gone 2-for-2) but has shown himself to be very capable of hitting big-league pitching, posting a .333/.417/.548 slash line with two home runs, seven RBI and a 6:2 BB:K through 48 total plate appearances.

  • Emerson Hancock SEA SP
    Mariners' Emerson Hancock: Tagged for three homers Monday
    2h ago

    Hancock allowed three runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out three batters over five-plus innings in a no-decision against the Athletics on Monday.

    Hancock held the A's to just one run (on a Carlos Cortes solo homer) through five frames, but he then served up back-to-back solo shots to Nick Kurtz and Shea Langeliers in the sixth before being pulled. It was just the second time through five outings that Hancock has been unable to complete six frames, and Monday marked the first time the right-hander has served up more than one long ball in a contest. Hancock has opened the campaign pitching quite well, posting a 2.83 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 28:4 K:BB through 28.2 innings.

  • Joel Kuhnel ATH RP
    Athletics' Joel Kuhnel: Registers fourth save Monday
    2h ago

    Kuhnel picked up a save against the Mariners on Monday, allowing one run on two hits over one inning.

    Kuhnel was called upon in the ninth inning to protect a three-run lead. He gave up a single and a double to allow a run to score but was ultimately able to finish off the A's victory. The run was the first charged to Kuhnel this season, and the pair of hits were as many as he'd given up across his first six appearances. With four saves over his past five outings and no blown saves on the season, Kuhnel appears to have a solid grasp on the team's closer role despite fanning just three batters over seven total innings.

  • J.T. Ginn ATH P
    Athletics' J.T. Ginn: Fans six in no-decision
    2h ago

    Ginn allowed three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six batters over 5.1 innings in a no-decision against Seattle on Monday.

    Ginn fell behind quickly, giving up a pair of runs in the first inning and another in the second. He was able to settle down from there, however, keeping the Mariners out of the scoring column the rest of the way. Ginn's six punchouts were a season high, and he issued just one free pass after walking four batters in his previous outing. The right-hander began the season in the bullpen but has now worked as a starter in each of his past three appearances. In those three starts, he's allowed five runs over a combined 14.2 frames while posting a 13:6 K:BB.

    Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Remains hot with three more hits

    Guerrero went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored against the Angels in a 5-2 victory Monday.

    Guerrero put Toronto on the board with a two-run blast in the third inning. He added two singles to notch his second three-hit game in as many days and extend his hitting streak to 11 contests. Guerrero is tied for fourth in the majors with 29 hits through 22 games and has posted a .354/.442/.488 slash line with two home runs, 12 RBI, 11 runs and one stolen base.

    Knicks' Miles McBride: Fails to score in loss Monday
    40m ago

    McBride posted zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in 13 minutes during Monday's 107-106 loss to the Hawks in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    McBride had very little impact, failing to score in just 13 minutes. Outside of a 21-point performance in a win over Charlotte earlier in the month, McBride has basically been a non-factor. In eight appearances over the past month, he has averaged just 5.8 points and 1.5 three-pointers in 16.7 minutes per game.

    Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Quiet again in Game 2 loss
    42m ago

    Bridges ended Monday's 107-106 loss to Atlanta in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 10 points (3-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal over 37 minutes.

    Bridges continues to look like a shell of his former self, struggling to have a tangible impact on either end of the floor. In 13 appearances over the past month, he has averaged just 12.2 points, 0.9 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 30.0 minutes per game. With the series now tied at 1-1, New York will have to wrestle back the advantage, starting with a road game in Atlanta on Thursday.

    Hawks' Mouhamed Gueye: Goes scoreless in win

    Gueye notched zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) in five minutes during Monday's 107-106 win over the Knicks in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Gueye played just five minutes, continuing to serve as a makeshift backup, highlighting the fact that Atlanta is certainly not blessed with center depth at the moment. Both he and Tony Bradley are really the only two backup options right now, with neither providing reliable production.

    Hawks' Tony Bradley: Inserted as backup

    Bradley totaled two points (1-2 FG), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal across 12 minutes during Monday's 107-106 win over the Knicks in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Bradley moved back into the rotation, playing 12 minutes as the primary backup center behind Onyeka Okongwu. Atlanta is struggling for center depth following an ankle injury to Jock Landale, meaning both Bradley and Mouhamed Gueye are likely to continue sharing the responsibility.

  • Nickeil Alexander-Walker ATL SG
    Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Struggles offensively Monday

    Alexander-Walker provided nine points (3-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, six assists and three blocks in 38 minutes during Monday's 107-106 victory over the Knicks in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Alexander-Walker struggled from the field for the second straight game, although he did manage to match his season-high with three blocks. Despite a pair of underwhelming performances, Atlanta is positioned well, with the series tied at 1-1 heading back to Atlanta. Given the season he has had, expect to see Alexander-Walker back on the front foot for Game 3 on Thursday.

  • CJ McCollum ATL PG
    Hawks' CJ McCollum: Drops 32 points in win
    5h ago

    McCollum tallied 32 points (12-22 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 5-7 FT), six assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block across 35 minutes in Monday's 107-106 Game 2 win over the Knicks in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    McCollum provided a steady scoring presence and finished as the game's leading scorer as the Hawks rallied to stun the Knicks in Game 2. The veteran has led his team in scoring in both games of the first-round series, shooting over 50 percent from the field in each. With the series tied at 1-1 and shifting to Atlanta, McCollum's offensive production will need to continue for the Hawks to pull off the series upset.

    Trenin (upper body) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's Game 2 in Dallas.

    Trenin was injured after getting hit by Colin Blackwell in the first period. The 29-year-old Trenin registered three hits in 3:02 of ice time before departing the game. The Wild have several depth options to replace the Russian forward in the lineup if he is unable to play in Game 3 in Minnesota on Wednesday.

    Oilers' Jason Dickinson: Returning to lineup for Game 1

    Dickinson (leg) is in the lineup for Game 1 versus the Ducks on Monday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Dickinson was classified as a game-time call earlier Monday, and he'll avoid missing the start of Edmonton's postseason run. He is slated to center the third line between Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Jack Roslovic in Game 1. While he's not an offensive force, Dickinson is an important player from a defensive perspective, as he'll likely play a big role on the penalty kill.

    Gudas (lower body) will play in Game 1 in Edmonton on Monday, according to Patrick Present of The Hockey News.

    Gudas missed the final two games of the regular season and 13 of the last 17 due to his lower-body injury. The right-shot defenseman will occupy a bottom-four role next to Tyson Hinds on Monday, and Gudas should factor in on one of the penalty-kill units as well.

    Zuccarello is unavailable for Game 2 in Dallas on Monday due to an upper-body injury.

    Zuccarello is a big loss for the Wild's top six, as the Norwegian winger generated three helpers, including two on the power play, in Saturday's 6-1 win in Game 1. Vladimir Tarasenko will slot in on the top line alongside Kirill Kaprizov and Ryan Hartman, while Bobby Brink will suit up in Game 2 as a result of Zuccarello's absence. Zuccarello can be considered day-to-day ahead of Game 3 in Minnesota on Wednesday.

Zub will have a few days to attempt to be ready for Thursday's Game 3, which will be played in Ottawa.

    Ullmark turned in a pretty solid effort in Saturday's Game 1 loss, stopping 27 of 29 shots, but the Senators weren't able to find the back of the net in a shutout loss. Game 2 won't be any easier for the Swedish netminder -- Ottawa will be without arguably its top shutdown defenseman in Artem Zub (undisclosed).
