Ethan Pocic CLE GRavens' Ethan Pocic: Joining Ravens on one-year deal
2h agoPocic is signing a one-year contract worth up to $4.5 million with the Ravens, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports Friday.
Pocic is reportedly healthy after tearing his Achilles in October. The veteran center made 57 regular-season starts for the Browns over the previous four campaigns after starting 40 games for the Seahawks across the preceding five regular seasons.

Calvin Austin III NYG WRGiants' Calvin Austin: Jostling for opportunities at WR
3h agoAustin is competing for playing time in a Giants wide-receiver room that also includes Malik Nabers (knee), Darius Slayton (abdomen), Darnell Mooney, Malachi Fields, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Odell Beckham, Alex Smith of SNY.tv reports.
Austin appears to be running ahead of at least Smith-Schuster and Beckham, both of whom were brought in to bolster the team's wide-receiver depth in camp while Nabers and Slayton are sidelined. Mooney is expected to play primarily in the slot and Fields is a rookie third-round pick, so Austin has a clear path to playing time early in the season if Nabers takes time to ramp up in his recovery from a torn ACL that was surgically repaired Oct. 28.

Darnell Mooney NYG WRGiants' Darnell Mooney: Favorite for slot duties
3h agoMooney is expected to work as the Giants' primary option in the slot, Alex Smith of SNY.tv reports.
Mooney was limited to 443 receiving yards with the Falcons in 2025, but he has recorded at least 992 receiving yards in two of his six NFL regular seasons. Slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, who signed with the Titans in free agency, led the Giants with 1,014 receiving yards in 2025. Mooney seems to have a defined role lined up while Darius Slayton (abdomen), Calvin Austin, Malachi Fields, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Odell Beckham compete for reps on the outside opposite Malik Nabers (knee), who is expected to reclaim a starting role once healthy.

Kyle Williams NE WRPatriots' Kyle Williams: In mix for snaps behind top WR duo
4h agoOnce training camp commences, Williams is slated to compete for snaps behind A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs in three-receiver sets, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
While it's clear that Brown and Doubs are atop the Patriots' WR depth chart, Kayshon Boutte also figures to see his share of work provided he remains with the team, with Williams, Mack Hollins and DeMario Douglas also in the mix for complementary work in a crowded positional group. For now, Williams -- who caught 10 of 21 targets for 209 yards and three touchdowns in 17 regular-season contests in 2025 -- doesn't have a clear path to volume in New England's offense, but the 2025 third-rounder, who's been working to improve his playing strength this offseason, does have the speed to help out as a downfield threat in 2026 when snaps are available.
-
Lan Larison NE RBPatriots' Lan Larison: Vying for RB3 spot in New England
4h agoLarison and Terrell Jennings are set to battle for the third spot on the Patriots' running back depth chart in training camp, Christopher Price of the Boston Globe reports.
Larison signed with the Patriots as an undrafted free agent out of UC Davis prior to the 2025 season but injured his foot during the preseason and spent the entire campaign on IR. Now that he's healthy, Larison will try to earn a roster spot in a depth role behind TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson. Jam Miller and Myles Montgomery are also vying for roles in New England's running back room.

Makai Lemon PHI WREagles' Makai Lemon: Ready for training camp
6h agoLemon (hamstring) noted Friday that he's "feeling great" and is "100 percent" ready to go for training camp, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
The 2026 first-rounder dealt with a hamstring injury during the Eagles' offseason program, but based on his comments Friday, Lemon should be able to work without restrictions once training camp commences. In the wake of the team's trade of A.J. Brown to the Patriots this offseason, Lemon has a chance to operate as the Eagles' WR2 alongside DeVonta Smith this season, a scenario that gives the USC product a path to a degree of fantasy utility as a rookie. Also in the mix for WR targets behind Smith are Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore.

Mike Soroka ARI SPDiamondbacks' Michael Soroka: Aiming for early-August return
5m agoManager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Soroka (glute) is in line to return from the injured list sometime around early August, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
The plan is for Soroka to throw a couple more bullpen sessions Saturday and Tuesday before pitching in a simulated game the following Saturday (July 25). The D-backs have already confirmed the right-hander will make at least one rehab start before returning to the big-league rotation, which will push his next start with Arizona into next month. An exact date for his second-half debut will likely emerge as he continues to check off boxes in his throwing program.

Blaze Alexander BAL 3BOrioles' Blaze Alexander: No timeline for return
13m agoAlexander (hand) does not have a timeline on a return from the 10-day injured list, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Alexander landed on the 10-day injured list Thursday due to a fractured left hand that he sustained against the Royals this past Sunday. The third baseman will undergo weekly checkups on his left hand and will begin physical activity once the bone heals. Coby Mayo is starting at third base for the Orioles on Friday against the Astros, and he should see a bump in playing time at the hot corner for as long as Alexander is on the shelf.
-
Tommy Troy ARI LFDiamondbacks' Tommy Troy: Likely out 3-to-4 weeks
19m agoManager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Troy (shoulder) is expected to remain out for roughly 3-to-4 weeks, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
A sprained AC joint in Troy's right shoulder caused him to move to the injured list Wednesday, and it now seems like he won't be able to make it back before the end of the month. The 24-year-old had been getting opportunities to start in center field with Jordan Lawlar (hamstring) on the shelf, but those reps will now likely be passed on to Ryan Waldschmidt and Jorge Barrosa.
-
Ben Lively CLE SPGuardians' Ben Lively: Scheduled for live BP on Monday
20m agoLively (elbow) tossed a live bullpen Wednesday and is scheduled for another session Monday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Lively continues to progress in his recovery from a UCL reconstruction and flexor tendon repair that he underwent in May of 2025. He inked a minor-league contract with the Guardians in mid-February, and it appears he's not far from embarking on a rehab assignment. That means Lively could be available for the Guardians for the final weeks of the 2026 regular season.
-
Seth Halvorsen COL RPRockies' Seth Halvorsen: Facing hitters
30m agoHalvorsen (shoulder) threw live batting practice Thursday, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.
Halvorsen is on the mend from shoulder inflammation that sent him to the injured list July 4. He's started to make significant progress after receiving a cortisone injection, and the Rockies are optimistic that he'll be able to begin a rehab assignment in the near future. A more definitive timeline for his return to Colorado's bullpen will likely emerge once he begins pitching in minor-league games.
-
Burch Smith DET RPTigers' Burch Smith: Cleared for rehab assignment
36m agoSmith (shoulder) will start a rehab assignment with Single-A Lakeland on Friday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Smith has been shelved by right shoulder inflammation since May 22 and was transferred to the 60-day injured list in late June. He's progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment and could be back in the majors by late July or early August. Prior to his injury, Smith posted a 3.18 ERA and 1.47 wHIP across 17 innings.

2h agoEssengue (thumb) won't play in Friday's Summer League game against the Cavaliers, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Essengue will be held out of Friday's Summer League finale due to right thumb soreness. However, he should be ready to go when training camp begins.
-

2h agoWilson (rest) is out for Friday's Las Vegas Summer League finale versus the Cavs, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Wilson will sit out the Summer League finale for rest, but he's not dealing with any sort of injury. He played well in Las Vegas, averaging 23.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 3.3 triples, 1.3 steals and 2.5 swats per contest on 50/42/33 shooting splits.
-
Dailyn Swain CHI SFBulls' Dailyn Swain: Out with wrist soreness
2h agoSwain is out for Friday's Summer League game against the Cavaliers due to right wrist soreness, per K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network.
The Bulls are holding out the rookie first-rounder for their Summer League finale Friday. There's no reason to believe Swain will be limited at all when training camp opens up in the fall.
-
Trey Alexander UTA SGJazz's Trey Alexander: Out with bruised rib
4h agoAlexander (rib) is out for Friday's Summer League game against Portland, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.
Alexander was taken off the court on a stretcher in Monday's 80-63 win over the Bulls due to a left rib contusion, and Utah is taking a cautious approach in its Summer League finale. The two-way player has plenty of time to recuperate ahead of training camp in the fall.
-
Ace Bailey UTA SGJazz's Ace Bailey: Out with back spasms
4h agoBailey (back) won't play in Friday's Summer League game against Portland, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.
The Jazz are giving Bailey Friday night off while he tends to right back spasms. Given the nature of the injury, the 2025 first-rounder should be fully recovered in time for training camp this fall.
-
Darryn Peterson UTA PGJazz's Darryn Peterson: Won't play Friday
4h agoPeterson (rest) is out for Friday's Summer League game against Portland, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.
Peterson is sitting out Utah's Summer League finale Friday. The rookie first-rounder is primed for a significant Opening Night role with the Jazz in 2026-27.
-
Jamie Drysdale PHI DFlyers' Jamie Drysdale: Inks four-year contract
5h agoDrysdale signed a four-year, $26 million contract with the Flyers on Friday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Drysdale was a restricted free agent who would have gone to arbitration if he had been unable to agree to terms with Philadelphia. He had eight goals, 32 points, 33 PIM, 16 hits and 94 blocks in 78 regular-season outings with the Flyers in 2025-26. The 24-year-old matched his previous career high of 32 points from the 2021-22 regular season. He should serve in a top-four capacity and receive significant power-play minutes next season, which puts him in a great position to get at least 30 points again if he stays healthy.
-
Kirby Dach MON CCanadiens' Kirby Dach: Gets one-year deal
1d agoDach signed a one-year, $3.6 million contract with the Canadiens on Thursday.
Dach had eight goals, 15 points, 31 PIM and 53 hits in 37 regular-season outings with Montreal in 2025-26. The 25-year-old has struggled to live up to his potential as a top-six power forward, and his lengthy injury history has certainly been part of the problem. He might surpass his career high of 38 points if he stays relatively healthy this campaign, but he's played in fewer than 60 games in each of the past four regular seasons.
-
Connor McMichael STL CBlues' Connor McMichael: Inks six-year contract
1d agoMcMichael signed a six-year, $40.5 million contract with the Blues on Thursday.
McMichael was a restricted free agent after completing his two-year, $4.2 million contract. St. Louis acquired him from Washington on June 23 as part of the trade that sent Jordan Kyrou to the Capitals. The 25-year-old McMichael had 14 goals and 46 points in 78 regular-season appearances with Washington in 2025-26, which was down from 26 goals and 57 points in 82 outings during the 2024-25 regular season. He's expected to open the upcoming campaign in a middle-six capacity and should receive some power-play ice time.
-
Jakub Skarek SJ GJakub Skarek: Headed for Germany
1d agoSkarek inked a one-year contract with DEL club Straubing on Thursday.
Skarek played in two NHL games for the Islanders back in 2024-25, going 0-1-0 with a 3.95 GAA and an .872 save percentage. At 26 years of age, the door isn't completely closed on Skarek eventually returning to the NHL, but he will certainly face an uphill battle to make it back.
-
Trevor Zegras PHI CFlyers' Trevor Zegras: Earns four-year contract
2d agoZegras signed a four-year, $36.5 million contract with the Flyers on Wednesday.
Zegras is coming off a career year after posting 26 goals and 67 points in 81 regular-season games in 2025-26. The 25-year-old forward is expected to continue filling a top-six role with a spot on the first power-play unit in 2026-27. Zegras should continue to be a reliable fantasy forward regardless of if he's able to stick at center or ultimately moves to the wing later in the contract.
-
Cole Perfetti WPG CJets' Cole Perfetti: Gets five-year contract
2d agoPerfetti signed five-year, $30 million contract with the Jets on Wednesday.
Perfetti was a restricted free agent. He had 12 goals, 32 points, 20 PIM, 54 hits and 33 blocks in 68 regular-season appearances with Winnipeg in 2025-26. That was down from 50 points during the 2024-25 regular season, but it was also his fourth consecutive campaign with at least 30 points. He's still just 24 years old and has the potential to establish himself as a solid top-six forward.
