John Metchie III HOU WR
Texans' John Metchie: Plays minor role on offense
16m agoMetchie secured 24 of 37 targets for 254 yards and one touchdown across 13 regular-season games with the Texans in 2024. He also suited up for both of Houston's playoff games, securing six of 10 targets for 63 yards.
Metchie, a 2022 second-round pick, missed his entire rookie campaign due to illness, and has since carved out a rotational role on on offense with the Texans. There was opportunity for Metchie to earn more significant opportunities on offense in 2024, with both Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee) sidelined down the stretch, but even with expanded target volume the former Alabama standout struggled to to efficiently produce. He's now heading into the final year of his rookie deal with Houston.

Tanner Conner MIA TE
Dolphins' Tanner Conner: Limited to eight games in 2024
34m agoConner (knee), who ended the 2024 campaign on IR, secured three of four targets for 16 yards across eight regular-season appearances with the Dolphins.
Conner landed on IR due to an undisclosed left knee injury mid-November. The 26-year-old tight end remains under contract with Miami for the 2025 campaign, so it will be notable to monitor whether he's healthy enough to participate in the start of offseason activities.
-
Jack Stoll MIA TE
Dolphins' Jack Stoll: Headed for free agency
1h agoStoll was not targeted across four regular-season appearances with the Dolphins in 2024. He also appeared in seven regular-season games with the Eagles, securing two of three targets for 10 yards.
Stoll concluded the 2024 campaign on Miami's roster after having been claimed off waivers from Philadelphia. Back in 2023, he put up five catches for 38 yards (on eight targets) across 17 regular-season appearances with the Eagles. The 27-year-old tight end will become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Alec Ingold MIA FB
Dolphins' Alec Ingold: Plays 15 games in 2024
1h agoIngold rushed 10 times for 17 yards and one touchdown across 15 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2024. He also secured 11 of 12 targets for 96 receiving yards and fumbled twice, losing one.
Ingold handled his usual role as Miami's starting fullback, mostly contributing as a blocker but remaining capable when called upon as a runner, or in the receiving game. He has two years remaining on his contract with the Dolphins.

Sydney Brown PHI DB
Eagles' Sydney Brown: Limited role in 2024
14h agoBrown finished the 2024 season with seven total tackles (six solo), while also adding two passes defensed, including one interception, and a forced fumble over 11 regular-season games.
Brown saw his role on defense diminish in his second season with the Eagles, operating primarily as a special-teams option in 2024. The safety missed the first five games of the year with a knee injury, limiting his upside early in the year. Brown figures to be set to play a similar role with Philadelphia in 2025.
-
Bryce Huff PHI DE
Eagles' Bryce Huff: Limited by injury in 2024
14h agoHuff finished the 2024 season with 13 total tackles (five solo), including 2.5 sacks, while also forcing a fumble over 12 regular-season games.
Huff joined the Eagles ahead of the 2024 season, signing a three-year, $51.1 million deal with the team. The linebacker never had more than three tackles in a game during the regular season while also missing five contests with a wrist injury. Huff will look to have a greater impact on the team in 2025.

Manny Machado SD 3B
Padres' Manny Machado: Had fully healthy offseason
4m agoMachado is 100 percent at the beginning of spring training following his first normal offseason in a couple years, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
Machado dealt with lingering tennis elbow during the 2023 campaign as well as that offseason and then last winter was recovering from surgery to repair the elbow. This was the first time he was able to have a normal offseason routine since prior to the 2022 season and that year he slashed .298/.366/.531 while finishing runner-up in the National League MVP voting. Machado was still quite productive each of the last two years, but his numbers could be due for an uptick in 2025.
-
Kumar Rocker TEX SP
Rangers' Kumar Rocker: May miss out on rotation spot
10m agoRocker doesn't project to make the Rangers rotation if the five starters ahead of him are healthy, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
With Jacob deGrom, Nathan Eovaldi, Jon Gray, Cody Bradford and Tyler Mahle all healthy, Landry expects Rocker to begin the year at Triple-A as a depth option. Of course, those five starters may not all remain healthy between now and Opening Day, and Rocker has little to prove on the farm, so he should still make the majority of his 2025 appearances in the big leagues.

Jasson Dominguez NYY CF
Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: May bat leadoff
20m agoDominguez could bat leadoff this year, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Per Hoch, manager Aaron Boone said he believes Dominguez's skill set fits well atop the lineup, pointing to his blend of on-base ability, power and solid base-running. Nothing has been decided yet, but it shouldn't be assumed that Anthony Volpe will bat leadoff after a second consecutive season with an OBP below .300. Hoch also notes that the Yankees would prefer to have Cody Bellinger and Jazz Chisholm in a position to drive in runs, but that they could be options to lead off if neither Dominguez or Volpe earns the honor.

Jace Jung DET 2B
Tigers' Jace Jung: Impresses in batting practice
32m agoJung's wrist is fully recovered from December surgery, and he put on a show during batting practice Saturday by hitting homers out to all fields, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
With Alex Bregman choosing Boston over Detroit and a couple other teams, the third base job is an open competition between Jung and Matt Vierling this spring. Jung has a chip on his shoulder and reported to camp early to show that he's regained the explosiveness in his swing that was more apparent in 2023. His exit velocities were below expectations last season, but Beck reports that Jung's exit velocities have been on the rise since minicamp in January. He mentioned that he did 100 push-ups a day to strengthen the wrist and also put in a lot of time with his brother, Rangers third baseman Josh Jung, working on his footwork at third base. Vierling will make the team regardless, but Jung probably either needs to win the starting third base job or he'll open the year at Triple-A.
-
David Buchanan PHI SP
Rangers' David Buchanan: Out with sprained ankle
45m agoBuchanan will be sidelined for about a week after badly spraining his left ankle during a fielding drill, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
The injury shouldn't have any long-term ramifications, but Buchanan was already a longshot for a roster spot, and the injury won't help his case. The 35-year-old made one big-league appearance with the Reds in 2024, which marked his first MLB action since 2015.
-
Joc Pederson TEX DH
Rangers' Joc Pederson: Under the weather
1h agoPederson will be away from Rangers camp for a few days while battling the flu, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
While not the way Pederson wanted to start off his Rangers tenure, it's not a big deal in the long run for the 32-year-old to get a bit of a late start. Pederson is slated to serve as Texas' designated hitter against right-handed pitching this season.
-
Jaylen Brown BOS SF
Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Plays in All-Star Game
36m agoBrown (knee) scored four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) with two rebounds across seven minutes for Team Shaq in Sunday's 41-25 win over Team Chuck in the All-Star Game.
Brown missed two straight games due to right knee soreness prior to All-Star Weekend, but his availability Sunday bodes well for his status going forward. Brown should be ready to roll for Thursday's game against the 76ers, resulting in fewer minutes for Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser.
-
Kyrie Irving DAL PG
Mavericks' Kyrie Irving: Makes impact in All-Star Game
13h agoIrving (shoulder) logged seven points (3-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in eight minutes of action during Sunday's 41-25 All-Star Game final win over Chuck's Global Stars.
Irving made his presence felt in limited action in both games of the All-Star mini-tournament, totaling 11 points, six rebounds, four assists and four steals in just 15 minutes across the two contests. Irving has been dealing with a shoulder issue of late, but it seems as if he should be available when the Mavericks return to play Friday against the Pelicans.
-
Jayson Tatum BOS PF
Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Scores 15 in All-Star Game
13h agoTatum recorded 15 points (6-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 11 minutes during Sunday's 41-25 All-Star Game final win for Shaq's OGs over Chuck's Global Stars.
Tatum had a solid performance in the semifinal for a balanced OGs squad, logging six points, two rebounds and two assists. However, he truly shined in the tournament final, posting a game-high scoring total. While Stephen Curry was named All-Star Game MVP, Tatum played a pivotal role in the OGs' success. The Celtics will resume regular-season play Thursday against the 76ers.
-
Stephen Curry GS PG
Warriors' Stephen Curry: Named All-Star Game MVP
14h agoCurry claimed All-Star Game MVP honors after recording 12 points (4-8 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two steals and an assist in 11 minutes during Sunday's 41-25 win against Chuck's Global Stars.
After shooting just 2-for-8 from three-point range in the All-Star Game Tournament semifinal, Curry caught fire, knocking down four threes, including a heave from near half court. The 11-time All Star recorded 20 points and 10 rebounds in 23 minutes of action across both games. This marks Curry's second career All-Star Game MVP award, the other coming back in 2022. The Warriors will return to action Friday against the Kings.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander OKC SG
Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Cools off in ASG final
14h agoGilgeous-Alexander tallied four points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one assist over 6:02 of court time during Chuck's Global Stars' 41-25 loss to Shaq's OGs in the final round of the All-Star Game Tournament.
Gilgeous-Alexander paced Team Chuck in their first-round victory over Team Kenny, connecting on all five of his field-goal attempts and finishing with 12 points, two rebounds, one assist and one block over 7:10 of playing time, but he wasn't able to carry that momentum into the finals. Now that the All-Star Game is over, Gilgeous-Alexander, fellow All-Star Jalen Williams and the Thunder will look to expand on their eight-game cushion at the top of the Western Conference standings, starting with Friday's game against the Jazz.

Victor Wembanyama SA C
Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Scores 11 points in ASG final
14h agoWembanyama registered 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one block over 7:29 of court time during Chuck's Global Stars' 41-25 loss to Shaq's OGs in the final of the All-Star Game Tournament.
Wembanyama played a key role in Team Chuck's 41-32 win over Team Kenny in the first round, finishing with six points, four rebounds, one block and one steal over 6:22 of court time. Wembanyama was the only player on Team Chuck to score in double digits in the finals, but it wasn't enough to earn the victory. With All-Star weekend coming to a close, Wembanyama and the 12th-seeded Spurs will look to make a final push for the playoffs, starting with Thursday's game against the Suns.

Linus Ullmark OTT G
Senators' Linus Ullmark: Exits ice first Monday
1h agoUllmark was the first goalie off the ice Monday, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes for Sweden's game against Team USA.
Ullmark saw action in relief of Filip Gustavsson against Finland on Saturday and will now get the starting nod for a crucial matchup with the Americans. In his two appearances with Ottawa following his extended absence due to a back injury, the 31-year-old netminder underwhelmed, giving up seven goals on 84 shots (.917 save percentage) in a pair of defeats. He'll need to perform significantly better if Sweden is going to make the championship game of the 4 Nations Face-Off.
-
Jordan Binnington STL G
Blues' Jordan Binnington: Tending twine against Finland
1h agoBinnington will defend the road net in Monday's 4 Nations Face-Off game against Team Finland, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Binnington has a 1-1-0 record with a 2.41 GAA and an .896 save percentage through games in the tournament. He stopped 20 of 22 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the United States, with the third goal being an empty-netter. Canada and Finland must win in regulation to guarantee a spot in Thursday's championship game versus Team USA. If the matchup between Canada and Finland goes into overtime and Sweden defeats the Americans in regulation, the Swedes will advance to the finals.
-
Jake Oettinger DAL G
Stars' Jake Oettinger: Facing Sweden
2h agoOettinger will patrol the home crease in Monday's 4 Nations Face-Off matchup against Team Sweden, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.
Oettinger will see his first game action in the tournament after Connor Hellebuyck made two straight starts. The 26-year-old Oettinger has a 26-12-2 record with a 2.35 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 40 appearances with Dallas this season. Team USA has already secured a spot in Thursday's championship game. Still, Sweden can earn a berth in the finals with a regulation win over the United States, as long as the contest between Canada and Finland is decided in overtime or a shootout.

Matthew Tkachuk FLA LW
Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk: Ruled out Monday
2h agoTkachuk (lower body) will not be in the lineup for Team USA against Sweden on Monday, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.
Tkachuk was limited to just 11:10 of ice time against Canada on Saturday -- though part of that was the result of him spending five minutes in the penalty box after dropping the gloves with Brandon Hagel. With Tkachuk out Monday, Chris Kreider will finally get his chance to suit up for Team USA. According to brother Brady Tkachuk, Matthew is expected to be ready to play in Thursday's 4 Nations Final, Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com reports.

Matthew Tkachuk FLA LW
Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk: Still being evaluated
20h agoTkachuk (lower body) is being evaluated ahead of Monday's 4 Nations Face-Off game versus Sweden, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports Sunday.
Tkachuk missed most of the third period in Saturday's 3-1 win over Canada. It's unclear if he will play versus Sweden, and he could sit out the matchup because Team USA has already clinched a spot in Thursday's championship game. Tkachuk has two goals and one assist through two outings at the 4 Nations Face-Off.
-
Cale Makar COL D
Avalanche's Cale Makar: Slated to be game-time call
21h agoMakar (illness) participated in Sunday's optional practice and will likely be a game-time decision for Monday's 4 Nations Face-Off game against Finland, Claire Hanna of TSN reports.
Makar sat out Saturday's 3-1 loss to the United States despite partaking in the morning skate. He remains day-to-day ahead of a must-win game for Canada on Monday. If Canada secures a regulation win over Finland, the team advances to Thursday's championship matchup against Team USA.
