Xavier Thomas HOU LBTexans' Xavier Thomas: Shifts back to IR
2h agoThomas (undisclosed) cleared waivers Thursday and reverted to injured reserve, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
The 2024 fifth-round pick (Cardinals) played 18 games over his first two seasons, recording 10 tackles, 2.5 sacks and a pass breakup. However, he was waived by the Cardinals midway through the 2025 season before landing on the Texans' practice squad. It's unclear what he's dealing with, but he'll remain on IR unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Texans.

Jack Wilson IND OTJack Wilson: Agrees to injury settlement
2h agoThe Colts cut Wilson (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, per the NFL's official media site.
Wilson was waived/injured by the Colts in late April and cleared waivers. Now, he'll have a chance to get healthy before looking for his next opportunity. The lineman from Minnesota is 26 years old and has yet to play in an NFL game.

Thaddeus Dixon NYG CBGiants' Thaddeus Dixon: Suffers torn Achilles
2h agoDixon tore his Achilles on Wednesday and was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Despite going undrafted, there were high hopes for Dixon, who received $282,500 guaranteed in his contract (one of the largest among the rookie class), according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Dixon went undrafted in part because of an existing hamstring injury, so this is another tough break for the rookie. Because of his placement on injured reserve, Dixon won't play in 2026 even if he's able to heal up before the end of the season.

Jared Wilson NE CPatriots' Jared Wilson: Bumping to center
2h agoWilson will move from left guard to center in the upcoming 2026 season, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.
Wilson started 13 games at left guard as a rookie third-round pick. Now, he'll move to center after the Patriots traded Garrett Bradbury to the Bears this offseason, meaning Wilson will snap the ball to high-school teammate Drake Maye in 2026.
-
Michael Briscoe SEA WRMichael Briscoe: Let go by Seahawks
2h agoThe Seahawks waived Briscoe with a failure to disclose physical condition designation Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
The Seahawks signed Briscoe as an undrafted free agent May 1. It's unclear what he's dealing with, but he'll hit waivers, nonetheless. The Cal Poly product spent seasons in college and finished with 43 receptions for 779 yards and seven touchdowns in his final campaign.
-
Luke Lachey HOU TELuke Lachey: Waived after failed physical
2h agoThe Packers waived Lachey (undisclosed) after a failed physical Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Lachey spent the 2025 season on the Texans' practice squad. The Texans waived him Monday, and after the Packers claimed him off waivers, he'll go back to the waiver wire due to a failed physical. Lachey (6-foot-6, 247 pounds) never surpassed 28 receptions or 400 receiving yards through his four years at college.

Jacob Waguespack MIL RPBrewers' Jacob Waguespack: Back with Milwaukee
24m agoWaguespack and the Brewers agreed on a minor-league contract Sunday.
Waguespack was briefly a free agent after being released by the Brewers on May 5, but he quickly returned to the organization. The 32-year-old will likely return to Triple-A Nashville after a stop with the team's Arizona Complex League squad. Waguespack has produced a 2.40 ERA and 1.20 WHIP with 22 strikeouts over 15 innings in 10 appearances with Nashville this season.
-
Logan Webb SF SPGiants' Logan Webb: Trending towards minimum absence
30m agoWebb (knee) is on track to return to action after a minimum stay on the 15-day injured list, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Webb has been on the injured list since Saturday while nursing right knee bursitis, but he appears to be trending towards returning to action when first eligible May 21. The right-hander has struggled to a 5.10 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with 27 strikeouts over 30 innings in his last five starts, and it's possible that the two-week break will allow him to hit the reset button mentally and return to form.
-
Erik Miller SF RPGiants' Erik Miller: Expected to return Saturday
37m agoMiller (back) is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list Saturday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Miller has made two appearances with Triple-A Sacramento during his minor-league rehab assignment, combining to pitch two scoreless innings while striking out three batters. The southpaw will make his return to the major-league roster after the minimum 15 days on the injured list, and he'll immediately be back in the mix for save chances with San Francisco.
-
Edwin Arroyo CIN SSReds' Edwin Arroyo: Getting look at third base
2h agoArroyo has started to get some reps at third base at Triple-A Louisville, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox19.com reports.
Arroyo has always been known as a good fielding prospect, with his primary position still being second base. But the bat has been slow to come around, especially in terms of his power after a shoulder injury wiped out his 2024 campaign. So far at Triple-A he's enjoyed his best year at the plate, hitting .342/.408/.590 with eight homers in 189 plate appearances. Arroyo turns 23 in August, so it's not too late for him to make a major league impact someday.
-
Omar Martinez LAA C
Angels' Omar Martinez: Optioned to Triple-A
2h agoMartinez was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Martinez will head to Salt Lake after spending nearly a week with the major-league roster, going 1-for-3 with a strikeout in his brief stint with the Angels. The team is expected to activate Logan O'Hoppe (wrist) from the 10-day injured list Friday, and he'll replace Martinez with the big-league club.
-
Dillon Dingler DET CTigers' Dillon Dingler: Remains productive in loss
3h agoDingler went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 9-4 loss to the Mets.
Dingler extended his hitting streak to four games, and he's batting .313 with two home runs during the stretch. Overall, the Detroit catcher is now up to eight long balls for the season, which puts him on pace to fly past last year's career-high total of 13 homers in 126 regular-season games. Dingler can be a bit streaky at the plate, but he's locked into a starting role and is producing in the power department for fantasy managers.
-
Kevin Huerter DET SGPistons' Kevin Huerter: Questionable for Friday
5h agoHuerter (adductor) is questionable for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Cavaliers on Friday, Danny Cunningham of Sports Radio 92.3 The Fan Cleveland reports.
Huerter managed to make his first appearance of the series Wednesday after missing time with a left adductor strain, but he logged only three minutes and recorded one assist. It's unclear how much the 27-year-old will be able to contribute if he's ultimately given the green light to suit up.
-
Caris LeVert DET SGPistons' Caris LeVert: Iffy for Friday
5h agoLeVert (heel) is questionable for Friday's Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against Cleveland.
The veteran swingman has battled a right heel contusion throughout this series, but the issue hasn't stopped him from suiting up in any of Detroit's last five contests. Marcus Sasser could play an expanded role in the event that LeVert cannot play Friday, and Javonte Green would also be an option to rejoin the rotation.
-
Duncan Robinson DET SGPistons' Duncan Robinson: Game-time call for Game 6
5h agoRobinson (back) is questionable for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against Cleveland on Friday, Danny Cunningham of Sports Radio 92.3 The Fan Cleveland reports.
Robinson was unable to go in Game 5 due to lower-back soreness, and he's back on the injury report of Friday's matchup. The Pistons will presumably monitor the sharpshooter closely in shootaround and warmups before issuing another update on his availability for Game 6.
-
Javonte Green DET SGPistons' Javonte Green: Left out of rotation in Game 5
5h agoGreen (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Wednesday in the Pistons' 117-113 overtime loss to the Cavaliers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
After playing in all 82 games during the regular season as well as the Pistons' first 11 games of the playoffs, Green failed to see the court for the first time in the 2025-26 campaign during Game 5. Green's prospects for rejoining the Detroit rotation likely won't get any better moving forward, as the Pistons were without starting wing Duncan Robinson (back) for Game 5 but could get him back for Friday's Game 6.
-
Kevin Huerter DET SG
Pistons' Kevin Huerter: Light run in return
8h agoHuerter (adductor) recorded one assist over three minutes off the bench Wednesday in the Pistons' 117-113 overtime loss to the Cavaliers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Available to play for the first time since Game 4 of the Pistons' first-round playoff series versus the Magic, Huerter was a fringe member of head coach J.B. Bickerstaff's rotation. The veteran wing checked into the contest with 6:17 left in the first quarter and played a brief shift before heading back to the bench, where he remained for the rest of the game. Regardless of whether Duncan Robinson (back) plays in Friday's Game 6 after sitting out Wednesday, Huerter could find himself outside of Bickerstaff's rotation entirely.
-
Daniss Jenkins DET PGPistons' Daniss Jenkins: Drops 19 points in spot start
18h agoJenkins closed with 19 points (8-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 41 minutes during Wednesday's 117-113 overtime loss to the Cavaliers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Jenkins moved into the starting lineup, replacing Duncan Robinson, who was ruled out with a back injury. Jenkins made the most of his opportunity, scoring a postseason-high 19 points, adding three combined steals and blocks. In 12 postseason games, Jenkins has averaged 8.0 points, 2.8 assists and 0.9 three-pointers in 21.1 minutes per game. However, he has now scored double digits in four of the past six games, seeing elevated minutes on a consistent basis.
-
Benoit-Olivier Groulx TOR CMaple Leafs' Benoit-Olivier Groulx: Three points in series opener
4m agoGroulx scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Toronto's 5-2 win over Cleveland in Game 1 on Thursday.
Groulx had his first big game of the postseason, ending a five-game slump in the process. He's earned two goals and three helpers through nine outings for the Marlies in the playoffs. Groulx put up 28 goals and 52 points in 59 AHL regular-season contests, as well as five points over 13 outings with the Maple Leafs in 2025-26.
-
Jakub Dobes MON GCanadiens' Jakub Dobes: Expected to start in Game 5
3h agoDobes is expected to start on the road against Buffalo in Game 5 on Thursday, per Heather Engel of NHL.com.
Dobes stopped 19 of 22 shots en route to a 3-2 loss to the Sabres on Tuesday. He dropped to 6-5 with a 2.22 GAA and a .914 save percentage in 11 playoff outings this year. Buffalo will have the home-ice advantage, but that might not help the Sabres much. They're 2-3 while averaging just 2.40 goals per game in Buffalo during the 2026 playoffs.
-
Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen BUF GSabres' Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen: Back in goal for Game 5
3h agoLuukkonen will protect the home goal versus the Canadiens in Game 5 on Thursday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Luukkonen will get the start again after picking up a win with a 29-save effort in Montreal on Tuesday in Game 4. The 27-year-old is now 2-1 with nine goals allowed on 71 shots over three appearances this postseason. The Canadiens have yet to lose consecutive games in the playoffs, so this could be a tough matchup for Luukkonen at a pivotal point in the second-round series.
-
Carter Hart LV GGolden Knights' Carter Hart: Slated to face Anaheim
6h agoHart is expected to start on the road against Anaheim for Game 6 on Thursday, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.
Hart has been effective in Vegas' series against Anaheim, posting a 2.19 GAA and a .928 save percentage. He's 7-4 with a 2.49 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 11 playoff outings this year. However, Anaheim has been very productive at home during the 2026 postseason, going 4-1 while averaging 4.40 goals per game.
-
Lukas Dostal ANA GDucks' Lukas Dostal: Guarding cage Thursday
6h agoDostal will patrol the home crease against the Golden Knights in Game 6 on Thursday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
In his 11 postseason outings, Dostal is sporting a 6-5 record, 3.36 GAA and .878 save percentage. It was a career year for the 25-year-old backstop, as he set new personal bests in games played during the regular season (56) and wins (30), though his save percentage (.888) was the worst of his five-year NHL career.
-
Radko Gudas ANA DDucks' Radko Gudas: Set to remain sidelined
8h agoGudas (lower body) is not expected to play in Thursday's Game 6 clash with the Golden Knights, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Gudas has been on the shelf since Game 1 versus the Oilers on April 20 and has appeared in just five of the Ducks' last 28 contests. Considering the veteran blueliner recorded a mere 13 points in 56 regular-season tilts this year, fantasy managers probably shouldn't be banking on an offensive explosion from him if he returns to the lineup during the playoffs.
