  • Michael Gallup DAL WR
    Raiders' Michael Gallup: Lands in Las Vegas
    12h ago

    Gallup agreed to terms on a one-year, $3 million contract with the Raiders on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    After a six-year stint in Dallas to start his career, Gallup will get a fresh start in Las Vegas. His second year with the Cowboys generated plenty of optimism, as he tallied 1,107 yards receiving to go along with six touchdowns. However, he has failed to replicate those types of numbers since. With Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers locked in as the Raiders' top pass catchers, Gallup will compete with the likes of Tre Tucker and DJ Turner, among others, for the No. 3 pass-catching role.

  • Curtis Samuel BUF WR
    Bills' Curtis Samuel: Get competition via draft
    13h ago

    Samuel has a new teammate in the receiving room after the Bills took Keon Coleman out of Florida State with the first pick of the second round Friday.

    Samuel, signed as a free agent in March, was never going to be a No. 1 or even a No. 2 in Buffalo, but now we at least know who's been brought in ahead of him on the depth chart. It's a mild surprise the Bills chose only one receiver with their 10 draft picks, so for now the versatile Samuel likely sits No. 3 in the pecking order behind Khalil Shakir and Coleman. That said, this is a perfect offense for Samuel's skill set, and he'll be a weapon of some sort once things get going, just not the primary receiving option.

    Hebert was waived by the Eagles on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Hebert joined Philadelphia's practice squad late last season and turned that into a reserve/future contract with the team in January. However, the Louisiana Tech product's time with the team will come to an end for now, and he'll have the chance to pursue new opportunities.

    Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Has 2025 option exercised
    14h ago

    The Falcons exercised Pitts' 2025 fifth-year option, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    It's a no-brainer move for the Falcons, even if Pitts, the No. 8 overall pick of the 2021 Draft, is coming off back-to-back disappointing seasons after going over 1,000 yards as a rookie. The hope in Atlanta is that the acquisition of Kirk Cousins coupled with the new coaching staff can help maximize Pitts' abilities. Pitts' figures to be a popular 2024 rebound candidate in both real life and fantasy football.

    Suarez was involved in Arizona's three-run fifth inning, plating a run with a single.

    Alexander batted leadoff and went 0-for-1 with three walks and two runs scored in Monday's 8-4 loss to the Dodgers.

    Alexander served as the leadoff batter for the first time, as manager Torey Lovullo recently tweaked the top of the order. Primary leadoff batter Ketel Marte has been moved to third in the order. Alexander has been adept at getting on base, posting a .406 OBP over 69 plate appearances.

    Dodgers' Will Smith: Swats solo shot Monday

    Smith went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk in Monday's 8-4 victory against the Diamondbacks.

    Smith padded the Dodgers' lead in the sixth inning with a 407-foot solo blast to center field. It was the backstop's second long ball in three games after he went deep just once over his first 23 contests of the campaign. Though he's been pretty quiet in the power department thus far, Smith is having an outstanding start to the season, slashing .363/.404/.539 with 22 RBI and 16 runs through 114 plate appearances.

  • Tommy Henry ARI SP
    Diamondbacks' Tommy Henry: Lasts just four innings in loss
    5h ago

    Henry (1-2) took the loss against the Dodgers on Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks without recording a strikeout over four innings.

    Henry got another turn in the rotation with Merrill Kelly (shoulder) and Ryne Nelson (elbow) on the injured list, but he was mostly ineffective against a potent Dodgers offense. Though the extent of the damage on the scoreboard against the southpaw was a pair of second-inning runs, he didn't record a single strikeout, and only one of his 72 pitches was a swinging strike. Henry's overall body of work this season has been mediocre, as he's posted a 5.40 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 24:11 K:BB over 28.1 frames. He may be pushed out of the rotation before his next turn comes up with Nelson nearing a return to action.

    Heat's Kevin Love: Barely noticeable Monday
    5h ago

    Love amassed zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in six minutes during Monday's 102-88 loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Love logged just six minutes, failing to have any sort of real impact against an impressive Celtics squad. At this point in his career, Love doesn't have enough in the tank to provide Miami with meaningful production. As has been the case for the last years, Love will not be a viable fantasy option next season.

    Heat's Duncan Robinson: Fails to score in three minutes

    Robinson finished Monday's 102-88 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over three minutes.

    Robinson hit rock bottom in the loss, failing to score in just three minutes of playing time. It's a far cry from what he was doing during the regular season and highlights just how unimpactful he can be. The Heat will now head back to Boston where they will attempt to extend the series beyond five games.

    Mills played a few extra minutes in the loss as the Heat fell to the Celtics in Game 4. Although they managed to win away from home in Game 2, there is a decent chance this series will come to an end Wednesday. Beyond this season, it's hard to see Mills having any sustainable fantasy value.

  • Al Horford BOS C
    Celtics' Al Horford: Increased role Monday

    Horford supplied seven points (3-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 102-88 win over the Heat in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Horford was forced into an increased role Monday, thanks to a calf injury to Kristaps Porzingis. While initial reports indicate that Porzingis has avoided anything serious, there is certainly a chance he will miss at least the next game. Should that be the case, Horford would likely slide into the starting lineup.

    Holiday continues to put up mediocre stats, something that has been a trend all season long. He has had to take a back seat since arriving in Boston, especially on the offensive end. With that said, the Celtics recently signed him to a sizeable contract extension, highlighting just how important he is to the team despite the lack of tangible numbers.

    White dominated both ends of the floor, guiding the Celtics to victory in Game 3 against the Heat. He led all players in scoring and blocked shots, demonstrating his versatility. Now leading 3-1, Boston will look to wrap up the series Wednesday in front of their home fans.

    Golden Knights' Brayden McNabb: Stays warm with helper
    6h ago

    McNabb recorded an assist and four hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

    McNabb has two goals, two assists, seven shots on net, 11 hits and 14 blocked shots over four playoff outings. His strong production at both ends of the ice has earned him a steady top-four role, and it's help to make up for relatively quiet starts to the playoffs for Alex Pietrangelo and Shea Theodore. McNabb can't be expected to maintain this level of offense in the long run, but he's worth a look in DFS while he's got a hot stick.

    Howden posted an assist and two hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

    The helper was Howden's first in four playoff outings. He's added two shots on net and 15 hits while filling a bottom-six role. Howden had 19 points, 76 shots on net, 85 hits and 51 blocked shots in 72 regular-season appearances. He can move up the lineup on occasion, but it's likely a better sign for Vegas if he sticks in the bottom six throughout the postseason.

    Barbashev registered an assist and eight hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

    Barbashev has an assist in three of the Golden Knights' four playoff games so far. He's added 25 hits and a plus-2 rating, offering a heavy physical game in addition to his solid offense. Barbashev continues to play alongside Jack Eichel and Jonathan Marchessault in a top-six role.

    Marchessault helped out on a Jack Eichel tally in the second period. Through four playoff outings, Marchessault has two goals, two assists, 15 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-3 rating. The reigning Conn Smythe winner continues to occupy a significant role in the Golden Knights' top six, and he's delivering with steady offense and energy.

    Golden Knights' Michael Amadio: Enters lineup, scores goal

    Amadio scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

    Amadio was scratched for the first three games of the playoffs, but he drew in over Anthony Mantha in this contest. The 27-year-old Amadio was able to cash in a goal, but the rest of the Golden Knights' offense mostly struggled. He produced 14 goals, 27 points, 117 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over a career-high 73 appearances in the regular season, but there's no guarantee Amadio will remain in the lineup consistently moving forward.

    Eichel scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

    Eichel put the Golden Knights ahead 2-1 in the second period, but their offense stalled out there. The 27-year-old is riding an eight-game point streak, which includes three goals and three helpers over four playoff contests. The center remains a huge part of the Vegas offense and will look to get his team back on track in Wednesday's Game 5.
