Aaron Rodgers: Slated to return to Pittsburgh
Rodgers and the Steelers are expected to agree on a one-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The deal will be worth up to $25 million, according to Schefter. Rodgers has been linked to a return to Pittsburgh throughout the offseason, and the Steelers emphasized their desire to bring the veteran QB back when they placed a right-of-first-refusal UFA tender on him in late April. Rather than sign that tender, Rodgers will return on a freshly negotiated one-year deal. He's slated to serve as the team's starting QB for a second straight campaign after leading Pittsburgh to the playoffs last season and throwing for 3,322 yards with a 24:7 TD:INT while completing 65.7 percent of his pass attempts over 16 regular-season games.Read More -

Tershawn Wharton: Out indefinitely
Wharton underwent neck surgery in early May and is out indefinitely, Joe Person of The Athletic reports. Wharton signed a three-year, $45 million contract with the Panthers last offseason, and he played just nine regular-season games in 2025, recording 36 tackles (11 solo), 2.0 sacks and a pass breakup. It's unclear if he'll miss any time, but LaBryan Ray would likely handle an increased workload if Wharton's injury lingers.Read More -

A 2023 third-round pick, Martin has played in just six regular-season games through three seasons. Unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Raiders, Martin will spend the entire 2026 season on IR.Read More

Larry Nance: Doubtful for Game 7
Nance (illness) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Pistons. Nance is expected to miss a second consecutive contest due to an illness. However, the veteran big man's absence wouldn't affect the rotation in Sunday's win-or-go-home matchup.Read More -

Kevin Huerter: Questionable for Game 7
Huerter (adductor) is questionable for Sunday's Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Cavaliers. Huerter is on the injury report again as he continues to manage a left adductor strain that has kept him sidelined for the majority of the second round. While he was cleared to play in Game 5, he saw just three minutes of action off the bench and did not see the floor at all during Friday's Game 6 victory. Given the "all hands on deck" nature of a Game 7, the 27-year-old sharpshooter will likely be active, but he may not see the floor, as he has yet to log meaningful minutes since the first round.Read More -

Duncan Robinson: Iffy for Game 7
Robinson is listed as questionable for Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Cavaliers on Sunday due to lower-back soreness. Robinson's back injury prevented him from playing in Game 5 on Wednesday, but he was cleared to play in a reserve role for Game 6 on Friday, when he played 20 minutes and finished with 14 points, two rebounds and two assists in a 115-94 win. Through 12 playoff games, Robinson has averaged 11.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 3.2 threes and 1.3 steals over 30.2 minutes per contest. His potential absence would mean more minutes would be available for Marcus Sasser and Javonte Green.Read More

Christian Walker: Smacks homer off deGrom
Walker went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during the Astros' 4-1 win over the Rangers on Saturday. Walker extended the Astros' lead to 3-1 in the fourth inning after belting a solo homer off Jacob deGrom. It was Walker's 11th home run of the season, which is tied for eighth-most in the American League and is second on the Astros behind Yordan Alvarez (15), the latter of whom also smacked a home run in Saturday's win. Walker is slashing .266/.342/.521 with 30 RBI and 27 runs scored over 190 plate appearances this season.Read More -

Yordan Alvarez: Goes long against Texas
Alvarez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during the Astros' 4-1 win over the Rangers on Saturday. All four of the Astros' runs Saturday came from solo home runs off Jacob deGrom, with Alvarez belting his homer in the first inning. It was his second home run in three games and 15th of the season, which is tied for third-most in the American League behind Munetaka Murakami (17) and Aaron Judge (16). Alvarez is slashing .322/.429/.649 with 31 RBI, 30 runs scored and a steal across 205 plate appearances this season.Read More -

Pete Fairbanks: Takes second blown save
Fairbanks (1-2) was charged with a blown save but earned the win Saturday against the Rays, allowing one unearned run on one hit and one walk in the ninth inning. He struck out two. Joe Mack committed a throwing error while attempting to catch Cedric Mullins stealing second base, which resulted in Tampa Bay's game-tying run in the ninth frame going unearned on Fairbanks' ledger. The Marlins went on to rally in extra innings and get Fairbanks off the hook, but the hurler has certainly been shaky during his debut season with Miami. Through 10 frames as the club's primary closer, the hard-throwing right-hander has a 9.00 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 15:5 K:BB while converting five of his seven save chances.Read More

Dobes has gone 3-2 with a .901 save percentage (118 saves on 131 shots) over five second-round games against the Sabres. The 24-year-old is looking to get the Canadiens to the Eastern Conference Finals and will have up to two chances to do so.Read More -

Manson (undisclosed) was listed as day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's Game 1 against the Golden Knights, per Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports on Saturday. Head coach Jared Bednar mentioned Manson should resume skating before the team's playoff series against the Golden Knights. The 34-year-old Manson had been dealing with an upper-body injury and didn't participate in Saturday's practice. However, it's unclear if this is the same issue or something new. He has two assists and 13 hits across five appearances this postseason.Read More -

Burns (undisclosed) is listed as day-to-day after missing Saturday's practice, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports. Burns still has plenty of time to return to the ice and prepare to play before Game 1 against Vegas on Wednesday. After the first two rounds of the postseason, he has collected three assists, 14 shots on goal, six blocked shots and 13 hits in nine appearances.Read More
