Twins' Kyle Garlick: Leaves with rib injury
2h agoGarlick left Monday's game against the Tigers with right rib inflammation, Megan Ryan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Garlick took two at-bats Monday before departing the contest. The extent of his injury is not yet known, so it remains to be seen if he will miss any additional time.

Jon Gray TEX SP
Rangers' Jon Gray: Exits with injury
2h agoGray was removed from Monday's game against the Orioles in the second inning with left side discomfort.
Gray's injury does not sound too serious, but it forced him to leave Monday's outing after throwing just 48 pitches. It remains to be seen if he will be available to make what was set to be his second start of the week Saturday.
-
Rich Hill BOS SP
Red Sox's Rich Hill: Activated, next start TBD
3h agoHill (knee) was activated from the 15-day injured list Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
The Red Sox have confirmed starters for the next few days, and it was reported earlier in the day that Hill would not start for the big club Wednesday as scheduled, so perhaps he is going to work out of the bullpen as a piggyback option for now. He gave up one run on four hits and zero walks while striking out five in three innings in his rehab outing last week.

Ricky Seals-Jones NYG TE
Giants' Ricky Seals-Jones: Misses third straight practice
3h agoSeals-Jones did not participate in Monday's practice, marking the third consecutive practice he's missed, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
It's unclear if Seals-Jones is dealing with an injury, and he certainly has plenty of time to ramp into shape before the season begins, but his absence from practice is notable since he's in a competition for New York's starting tight-end role. The veteran came into camp with a slight inside edge for the gig, but the Giants also brought in ex-Texan Jordan Akins this offseason and selected Daniel Bellinger in the fourth round of the draft, and either player could pull ahead of Seals-Jones on the depth chart with a strong preseason.

Amari Cooper CLE WR
Browns' Amari Cooper: Looked at by trainer
3h agoCooper was attended to briefly by a trainer after catching a touchdown in red-zone drills during Monday's practice, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.
The trainer checked out Cooper's right ankle, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports, but the receiver walked to the sideline under his own power. Cooper remained on the sideline for the remainder of practice, and Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski did not provide an update.

Cade York CLE K
Browns' Cade York: Connects from beyond 50
3h agoYork was successful on all six field-goal attempts during Monday's practice session, Athony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.
York has been perfect over two kicking sessions, nailing all 12 attempts, including a 48-yarder Saturday and a 51-yarder Monday that split the middle of the uprights.
-
Alvin Kamara NO RB
Saints' Alvin Kamara: Court date confirmed
3h agoKamara's hearing regarding a battery charge has been rescheduled for Thursday, Sept. 29, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Earlier Monday, Terrell reported that Kamara's imminent court date was pushed back another two months to October, the third time this hearing has been delayed. Kamara faces misdemeanor and felony battery charges for an incident in early February in Las Vegas. Until the legal process plays out, the NFL likely will wait to make a decision on any sort of punishment.

James Washington DAL WR
Cowboys' James Washington: Out 6-10 weeks with foot fracture
3h agoWashington will be sidelined 6-to-10 weeks due to the fractured foot he suffered at Monday's practice, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.
After he landed awkwardly on his right leg while attempting to come down with a deep ball on a go route, Washington required a cart to go to the locker room. Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, it initially was feared that he may have sustained a Jones fracture in his right foot, but tests confirmed it's a metatarsal fracture. With Michael Gallup (knee) unlikely to be available Week 1, the Cowboys' receiving corps will be reliant on CeeDee Lamb, rookie Jalen Tolbert and tight end Dalton Schultz to begin the campaign.
-
Najee Harris PIT RB
Steelers' Najee Harris: Foot issue downplayed
4h agoCoach Mike Tomlin noted that Harris' foot got stepped on during Monday's practice, but the coach added that it "shouldn't be a major deal," Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Given Tomlin's comments, we'll consider Harris day-to-day for now. Next up for Pittsburgh's backfield reps in practice as long as Harris is sidelined or limited is Benny Snell, with Anthony McFarland, Jeremy McNichols and Mataeo Durant also in the mix.
-
Rodney McGruder DET SG
Pistons' Rodney McGruder: Re-signs with Detroit
21m agoMcGruder agreed to a contract extension with the Pistons on Monday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
McGruder will be staying in Detroit for at least one more season, as the Kansas State product tallied 5.4 points and 2.2 assists across 51 games played last year. The 2022-23 season will mark the guard's third straight with the Pistons. McGruder's new deal is reportedly for one year.
-
Carsen Edwards DET PG
Carsen Edwards: Signs with Turkish club
2d agoEdwards signed a one-year contract with Turkish club Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul on Sunday.
Edwards will make the jump to Europe after he struggled to gain much traction as an NBA player since being selected early in the second round of the 2019 NBA Draft. The 5-foot-11 guard proved to be one of the G League's most dynamic scorers during the 2019-20 and 2021-22 campaigns, but he averaged only 3.7 points (on 36.4 percent shooting from the field), 1.1 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 9.8 minutes over 72 appearances across the last three seasons with the Celtics and Pistons.
-
Armoni Brooks TOR PG
Armoni Brooks: Waived by Toronto
2d agoBrooks was waived by the Raptors on Saturday, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
The Raptors wanted to open up another training camp spot. Brooks appeared in 54 games last season between the Rockets and Raptors, averaging 5.3 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 15.6 minutes.
-
Collin Gillespie DEN PG
Nuggets' Collin Gillespie: Out indefinitely
3d agoGillespie will be out indefinitely after suffering a lower left leg fracture earlier in the week, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.
Gillespie has already undergone surgery as a result of the injury. He recently signed with the Nuggets as an undrafted free agent. The point guard was hoping to earn a roster spot during training camp, but he will now have to refocus his sights on his recovery.
-
Ryan Rollins GS G
Warriors' Ryan Rollins: Strikes deal with Golden State
3d agoRollins (foot) agreed Thursday on a three-year, $4.76 million contract with the Warriors, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
The No. 44 overall pick in June's draft was unable to participate in Summer League play for the Warriors after he was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his right foot shortly after being selected, but it won't deter Golden State from guaranteeing the first two years of his deal. Rollins' availability for the start of training camp is up in the air.
-
Zavier Simpson OKC PG
Magic's Zavier Simpson: Joins Orlando
3d agoSimpson and the Magic agreed on a contract Friday, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.
Simpson made his NBA debut last season on a 10-day contract with the Thunder at the end of the year. He saw an absurd 43.5 minutes per game in four appearances and averaged 11.0 points, 7.5 assists, 5.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks as OKC tanked down the stretch. He was also part of OKC's G League team, where he averaged 14.6 points, 6.5 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 32.4 minutes across 35 regular-season appearances. With the Magic, he'll join the team for camp but will presumably be a staple with the G League team in Lakeland.
-
Leon Gawanke WPG D
Jets' Leon Gawanke: Signs two-way deal
3h agoGawanke signed a one-year, two-way contract with Winnipeg on Monday, per PuckPedia.
Gawanke scored 10 goals and 36 points in 65 games with AHL Manitoba last season. The 23-year-old blueliner was taken in the fifth round of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft but he's yet to make his NHL debut. He should fill a similar depth role again next season.
-
Nikolai Knyzhov SJ D
Sharks' Nikolai Knyzhov: Will be ready for training camp
8h agoKnyzhov (groin) is expected to be healthy for the start of training camp, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports Monday.
Knyzhov missed the entirety of the 2021-22 season due to his long-term groin injury and hasn't suited up for a game since May 12, 2021. That season, the 24-year-old blueliner generated two goals and eight assists in 56 contests and could push for the 20-point threshold if able to avoid injury.
-
Owen Tippett PHI RW
Flyers' Owen Tippett: Inks two-year extension
3d agoTippett signed a two-year, $1.5 million AAV contract with the Flyers on Friday.
Tippett was acquired from Florida last season as part of the Claude Giroux trade. He scored 14 points in 42 games with the Panthers and another seven points in 21 appearances with Philadelphia. The 23-year-old winger was selected 10th overall in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft and was considered a high-end prospect for several years. While he hasn't quite found his footing at the highest level, Tippett has a solid chance to outplay this deal in Philadelphia's middle-six before becoming a restricted free agent again in 2024.
-
Ben Gleason DAL D
Stars' Benjamin Gleason: Secures two-way deal
3d agoGleason signed a one-year, two-way deal with the Stars on Friday.
Gleason was waived prior to the start of the 2021-22 season and spent the entire year with AHL Texas. He tallied nine goals and 44 points in 70 appearances. The 24-year-old blueliner hasn't seen any NHL action since the 2018-19 campaign and should fill a similar depth role in the organization next season.
-
John Klingberg ANA D
Ducks' John Klingberg: Inks deal with Ducks
3d agoKlingberg signed a one-year, $7 million contract with Anaheim on Friday.
Klingberg received a solid raise after completing his seven-year, $4.25 million deal with the Stars. He'll turn 30 before the 2022-23 campaign begins and will likely be more focused on a long-term deal next offseason. The 6-foot-3 blueliner has been offensively minded; since he entered the league in 2014, Klingberg ranks eighth among all NHL defensemen with 374 points (0.68 per game). Expect him to eat minutes in Anaheim's top four next season.
-
Mathieu Joseph OTT RW
Senators' Mathieu Joseph: Receives four-year extension
4d agoJoseph (undisclosed) signed a four-year, $11.8 million contract with the Senators on Thursday.
This new deal locks Joseph in at a $2.95 million cap hit as the Senators look to move from rebuilding to competing. The 25-year-old impressed after he was traded from the Lightning last year, logging 12 points in 11 games before ending the year on the shelf with an undisclosed injury. Joseph had 30 points in 69 contests overall last year, and he'll add some physicality in a middle-six role, though the additions of Claude Giroux and Alex DeBrincat could reduce Joseph's opportunities on offense.
