Maxx Crosby LV DERaiders' Maxx Crosby: Headed to Baltimore
4h agoLas Vegas is trading Crosby (knee) to the Ravens in exchange for 2026 and 2027 first-round draft picks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Crosby is a five-time Pro Bowler who racked up 69.5 sacks over 110 regular-season games spanning seven seasons with the Raiders. He dealt with a knee injury that required surgery last year and missed the final two weeks of the campaign, but he's expected to be back to full health by the beginning of training camp. Crosby is widely regarded one of the league's top pass rushers and should immediately boost a Baltimore pass rush that tied for third to last in the NFL with just 30 sacks during the regular season in 2025. The trade can't be processed until next week, per Schefter, but it appears to be fully agreed upon.

Garrett Bradbury NE CBears' Garrett Bradbury: Heading to Windy City
6h agoThe Patriots are trading Bradbury to the Bears in exchange for a 2026 fifth-round pick, Dianna reports.
Bradbury joined the Patriots on a two-year, $9.5 million contract in March of 2025 after spending the first six years of his NFL career with the Vikings, but the 2019 first-rounder will head back to the NFC North as a member of the Bears. He has started in all 105 regular-season games he's appeared in and is slated to serve as the Bears' starting center for 2026 following the retirement of Drew Dalman on Tuesday.

Alex Cappa LV OGAlex Cappa: Let go by Las Vegas
6h agoThe Raiders released Cappa on Friday.
Cappa will not return to Las Vegas for 2026 despite signing a two-year, $11.02 million contract with the Raiders in March of 2025. He started in eight of 17 regular-season games for the Raiders last year, including the last six games of the campaign. The 2018 third-rounder should garner interest from teams looking to add depth to the offensive line.
-
James Hudson NYG OTJames Hudson: Let go by Big Blue
6h agoThe Giants released Hudson on Friday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Hudson joined the Giants in March of 2025 on a two-year contract, but his stint with the team will end after just one season in a move that will save New York $5.5 million against the salary cap. Hudson started in just two of 11 regular-season games in 2025 and will look to join a team in need of depth on the offensive line.
-
Kendall Williamson LAC DBChargers' Kendall Williamson: Inks extension with Bolts
6h agoThe Chargers signed Williamson (ankle) to a contract extension Friday.
The details of Williamson's contract haven't been announced by the Chargers, but the 2023 seventh-rounder figures to be around for at least the 2026 season. He served mostly on special teams last year and finished with 14 tackles (eight solo) across 17 regular-season games, though an ankle injury prevented him from playing in the Chargers' AFC wild-card loss to the Patriots in January.
-
Ryan Kelly MIN CVikings' Ryan Kelly: Hangs up cleats
6h agoKelly announced his retirement from the NFL through his personal X account Friday.
Kelly will step away from the game after a 10-year NFL career that started when he was selected in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft by the Colts. He signed a two-year contract with the Vikings in March of 2025 but suffered three concussions during the regular season, which limited him to eight games. Kelly was a four-time Pro Bowl selection and was a Second-Team All-Pro in the 2020 season while playing for Indianapolis.

Junior Caminero TB 3BRays' Junior Caminero: Sizzling start to spring
44m agoCaminero went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run for the Dominican Republic in Friday's 12-3 win over Nicaragua in the World Baseball Classic.
Caminero looks to have taken his hot bat from spring training into the WBC, considering he's gone 5-for-12 (.417) with five RBI and one walk covering his first five Grapefruit League contests. The 22-year-old slugger was a first-time All-Star in 2025, though it's worth noting that the Rays are returning to pitcher-friendly Tropicana Field in 2026. During last year's regular season, Caminero posted a .953 OPS across 294 at-bats at hitter-friendly Steinbrenner Field as opposed to a .743 OPS over 308 at-bats on the road.
-
Jonathan Aranda TB 1BRays' Jonathan Aranda: Hot hitting this spring
1h agoAranda went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run for Mexico in Friday's 8-2 win over Great Britain in the World Baseball Classic.
Aranda's hot start to spring training appears to have carried into the WBC -- the first baseman has gone 5-for-13 (.385) with a double and two walks over six Grapefruit League outings. Even with the Rays heading back to pitcher-friendly Tropicana Field in 2026, the 27-year-old should occupy a premium spot in Tampa Bay's lineup to begin the new year. Aranda was a strong four-category fantasy contributor when healthy in 2025, as he hit .316 with 14 homers, 59 RBI and 56 runs scored across 370 regular-season at-bats (106 games).

Spencer Horwitz PIT 1BPirates' Spencer Horwitz: Uncertain role
2h agoHorwitz enters the 2026 season with an uncertain defensive home, Kevin Gorman of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.
Horwitz was the Pirates' primary first baseman when healthy in 2025, and he delivered a solid 119 wRC+ across 411 plate appearances. However, the team brought in Ryan O'Hearn this winter, and he will almost certainly get some playing time at first base. The team's other additions of Brandon Lowe and Marcell Ozuna lower the potential playing time available at second base and designated hitter, respectively, leaving Horwitz without an obvious path to a regular defensive home. O'Hearn is slated to also play in right field, so Horwitz should still get a fair bit of run at first base while also occasionally filling in at second base and DH as needed.
-
Rafael Montero NYY RPYankees' Rafael Montero: Still not in camp
3h agoMontero continues to have visa issues and hasn't yet arrived at Yankees camp, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Montero has been unable to join New York to this point while he works to resolve the visa issues. The veteran reliever had been slated to use the exhibition slate to try to win a spot in the Yankees' bullpen, but given how much time he's already missed, it's becoming increasingly unlikely that Montero will have much of an opportunity to make his case this spring.
-
Cameron Schlittler NYY SPYankees' Cam Schlittler: Fans four in spring debut
3h agoSchlittler pitched 2.1 scoreless innings against Tampa Bay in a Grapefruit League game Friday, allowing two hits and issuing one walk while striking out four batters.
Schlittler dealt with a back injury during the early part of training camp but appeared fully recovered Friday. He tossed 39 pitches and showed good velocity, topping out at 99.6 mph on his fastball. With his spring debut now in the books, Schlittler seems like he'll be ready for Opening Day, though he may be on a pitch count for his first few starts as he works to get fully ramped up.

Sean Burke CHW PWhite Sox's Sean Burke: Bumpy start to spring
4h agoBurke allowed four earned runs on five hits while striking out three across 3.0 innings in Thursday's Cactus League game against the Guardians.
This was Burke's third outing of the spring, and he's allowed a combined six earned runs across his last six innings. Despite the poor line Thursday, he did manage to settle in after allowing all four of his runs to the first six batters he faced. While Burke is expected to land a spot in the rotation to begin the season, manager Will Venable has been purposely non-committal about the roles of his pitchers to this point in the exhibition season, per Barry Bloom of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Moussa Cisse DAL CMavericks' Moussa Cisse: Swats three shots in loss
38m agoCisse notched six points (3-5 FG), seven rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal across 25 minutes during Friday's 120-100 loss to Boston.
With Daniel Gafford (ankle) and Marvin Bagley (neck) sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back set, Cisse saw increased playing time and even logged more minutes than starter Dwight Powell (15 minutes). Cisse was fairly productive in this one, grabbing seven boards and recording a game-high three blocks. The big man has just four games of eligibility left at the NBA level while on a two-way contract, so he isn't likely to suit up unless Gafford and Bagley both continue to miss time.
-
Cooper Flagg DAL SFMavericks' Cooper Flagg: Shooting woes in blowout loss
1h agoFlagg produced 16 points (7-23 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Friday's 120-100 loss to the Celtics.
Flagg turned in a lackluster performance from the field and from beyond the arc, though he still finished as Dallas' second-leading scorer. While he wasn't efficient on the offensive end against Boston, the 19-year-old still led the Mavericks in rebounds and assists, dishing out six dimes for a second consecutive contest. The rookie saw an additional four minutes of action compared to Thursday's loss to Orlando -- his return from an eight-game absence due to a foot injury -- and will presumably continue to increase his workload going forward.
-
Klay Thompson DAL SGMavericks' Klay Thompson: Paces Dallas in defeat
1h agoThompson posted 19 points (7-13 FG, 5-11 3Pt) and one assist over 18 minutes during Friday's 120-100 loss to Boston.
Thompson followed up his 24-point performance during Thursday's loss to Orlando with another impressive outing on the offensive end. The veteran wing led the Mavericks in scoring Friday and was one of just two Dallas players to score more than 13 points. Thompson has been a relatively consistent source of three-pointers recently, though he doesn't offer much in terms of peripheral numbers.
-
Luka Garza BOS PFCeltics' Luka Garza: Adds 10 points in win
1h agoGarza contributed 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt), three rebounds, two blocks and one assist over 18 minutes during Friday's 120-100 win over the Mavericks.
Garza saw at least 15 minutes of action for a third consecutive contest due to Nikola Vucevic suffering a fractured finger in the opening quarter. Garza turned in a solid outing on the offensive end, scoring in double figures for the first time since Feb. 4. He also chipped in at least two blocks for just the third time this season. Vucevic is expected to miss at least one month with the finger injury, so Garza is likely to operate as Neemias Queta's primary backup for the time being.
-
Jaylen Brown BOS SFCeltics' Jaylen Brown: Well-rounded effort in win
1h agoBrown had 24 points (9-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 120-100 victory over the Mavericks.
Brown put together a relatively efficient performance in this one, leading the Celtics in scoring while extending his streak of 20-plus-point outings to 23. The star forward also tied the game-high marks in steals and assists, dishing out at least seven dimes for a fourth straight game. While Brown's usage may take a slight hit due to Jayson Tatum returning to action, the former should still operate as Boston's top option on the offensive end as Tatum is eased back into action.
-
OG Anunoby NY SFKnicks' OG Anunoby: Stuffs stat sheet in blowout win
1h agoAnunoby tallied 34 points (11-17 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, four steals and one block across 32 minutes in Friday's 142-103 win over the Nuggets.
With Jalen Brunson posting just nine points on 3-of-13 shooting, it was Anunoby who stepped up for New York in the scoring column. The 28-year-old forward reached the 30-point threshold for the first time this season after averaging 13.6 points per game on less-than-impressive shooting splits in his first eight outings following the All-Star break. He contributed across the board, particularly on the defensive end, where he chipped in five combined steals-plus-blocks for a second consecutive contest. He also finished one assist shy of matching his season-best mark.

Jackson LaCombe ANA DDucks' Jackson LaCombe: Collects two points in shootout win
2m agoLaCombe scored a power-play goal on two shots and added an assist in Friday's 6-5 shootout win over the Canadiens.
LaCombe had gone 27 games without a goal prior to his second-period tally Friday. Despite the lack of goals, he had 10 assists over his prior 11 contests to maintain a steady presence on offense in addition to his strong defense. The 25-year-old blueliner is up to seven goals, 36 assists, 14 power-play points, 124 shots on net, 106 blocked shots, 55 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 62 appearances. LaCombe is likely to remain the Ducks' top overall blueliner, but he may lose some power-play minutes to John Carlson (lower body), who was traded from the Capitals prior to Friday's deadline.
-
Leo Carlsson ANA CDucks' Leo Carlsson: Pair of points in Friday's win
5m agoCarlsson scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist and added two PIM in Friday's 6-5 shootout win over the Canadiens.
Carlsson has gotten on the scoresheet in five of his last six games, totaling three goals and five helpers in that span. The 21-year-old center has continued to play in a top-line role after his absence due to a thigh injury. He's now at a career-high 21 goals in addition to 31 assists, 127 shots on net and a plus-5 rating across 50 appearances this season.
-
Cutter Gauthier ANA LWDucks' Cutter Gauthier: One of each in shootout win
7m agoGauthier scored a goal on five shots, added a power-play assists and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-5 shootout win over the Canadiens.
Gauthier has six goals and an assist over four contests in March. He struck early Friday, opening the scoring just 39 seconds into the game. The 22-year-old winger is looking like a real star with 32 goals, 57 points, 236 shots on net, 49 hits and a plus-6 rating over 61 appearances this season. He's on track to compete for a 40-goal campaign and has an outside chance to hit 80 points as well.
-
Chris Kreider ANA LWDucks' Chris Kreider: Leads offense with four points
9m agoKreider scored a goal on four shots, added three assists and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-5 shootout win over the Canadiens.
Kreider had a helper in each period and also scored with 42 seconds left in regulation to force overtime. This was his fourth multi-point effort in his last eight games, a span in which he has four goals and seven assists. The veteran winger is up to 21 goals, 18 assists, 13 power-play points, 105 shots on net, 47 hits and a plus-1 rating over 56 appearances this season. Kreider continues to bring experience and quality offense to the Ducks' young top six.
-
Lukas Dostal ANA GDucks' Lukas Dostal: Wins in shootout
12m agoDostal stopped 23 of 28 shots in Friday's 6-5 shootout win over the Canadiens.
Dostal gave up five goals for the third time in his last five outings, but he escaped with a win. The Ducks blew a 4-2 lead in the third period, but Chris Kreider forced overtime. Dostal's recent play hasn't inspired a lot of confidence, but he's still getting results with six wins in his last seven outings. He's up to 25-14-2 on the season with a 3.06 GAA and an .893 save percentage over 43 appearances. The Ducks have a favorable matchup versus the Blues on Sunday to wrap up this homestand.

Chase Bradley COL LWAvalanche's Chase Bradley: Two goals Friday
37m agoBradley scored two goals in AHL Colorado's 5-2 win over Abbotsford on Friday.
This performance ended an 18-game goal drought, in which he had just two assists. Bradley has a poor 11 points through 34 appearances in his second AHL campaign. The 24-year-old's lack of offense this season suggests he'll have a tough time carving out a regular role at the NHL level.
