Steelers' Cameron Sutton: Suspended eight games

11m ago

Sutton has been suspended the first eight games of the 2024 regular season for for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Sutton's suspension relates to a March incident in which he was charged with one misdemeanor count of domestic battery stemming. The veteran cornerback, who previously played for the Steelers from 2017-22 before a one-year stint with Detroit in 2023, will be eligible for reinstatement after Pittsburgh's game against the Giants in Week 8. Once reinstated, he could mix in as a rotational player in the Steelers' secondary.

Colts' Ashton Dulin: Moving well as training camp nears

4h ago

Dulin (knee) did not participate in spring practices but has resumed running without a brace in personal workouts, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Dulin's latest workout video shows him running and cutting in non-contact football activities, and it looks encouraging as he works his way back from a right ACL tear suffered in training camp last year. The 27-year-old is competing for a depth role in Indianapolis' crowded wide receiver room.

Vikings' Khyree Jackson: Dies in auto accident

2d ago

Jackson, 24, died Friday in an automobile accident in Maryland, the Portland Oregonian reports. "I'm at a loss for words. My heart goes out to Khyree's family, friends, teammates and coaches," said Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell.

Jackson was killed along with former Dr. Henry Wise Jr. High School teammates Anthony Lytton Jr. and Isaiah Haze, according to the report. Jackson was Minnesota's fourth-round draft pick in 2024 after playing at Oregon.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Managing foot sprain

4d ago

Prescott was spotted Thursday wearing a protective boot on his right foot due to a sprain, but the injury isn't considered serious, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The Cowboys wrapped up the final practice of mandatory minicamp on June 5, which was roughly one month ago, and Prescott has reportedly been wearing his protective boot for about only a week, so it remains unclear how he suffered the injury. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network confirms that the injury is considered minor, so it doesn't seem like the franchise quarterback's foot sprain is at much risk of impacting his availability for the start of training camp on July 25. Now heading into his age-32 season, Dallas and Prescott have yet to come to terms on a new contract extension, and he remains scheduled for a $55.46 million cap hit in 2024. Meanwhile, star wideout CeeDee Lamb could be a candidate to hold out from training camp if he doesn't receive a new contract of his own.

Jaguars' Tank Bigsby: Improving after rough rookie year

6d ago

Jaguars running backs coach Jerry Mack said Bigsby's offseason priority has been to "refocus," and that "now things are starting to slow down for him" entering Year 2, Juston Lewis of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union reports.

Coach Doug Pederson said back in May that the team hopes Bigsby will be able to spell starter Travis Etienne more often during the 2024 season, but for that to happen the 2023 third-round pick will need to improve upon a lackluster rookie performance. Last season, Bigsby logged just 50 carries for 132 yards (2.6 YPC) and two touchdowns across 17 games. Mack noted that as a rookie "everything was extremely fast for [Bigsby]," but said that this offseason "he's understanding the ins and outs of the offense a lot better." D'Ernest Johnson and rookie fifth-round pick Keilan Robinson could offer competition for the No. 2 role, but if Bigsby can indeed improve entering the 2024 campaign and retain a complementary role behind Etienne, he could provide value as a post-hype sleeper in the late rounds of fantasy drafts.

Patriots' Jahlani Tavai: Agrees to three-year extension

6d ago

Tavai and the Patriots agreed to terms Tuesday on a three-year extension with a $15 million base value, and that can reach $21 million with incentives, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

Tavai has entrenched himself as a key member of New England's starting linebacker corps, playing a hybrid ILB/OLB role that saw him record 110 tackles, two interceptions and a sack in 17 games last season. He now joins DT Christian Barmore, RB Rhamondre Stevenson and C David Andrews as players who were entering the final year of their contracts but have re-signed under new coach Jerod Mayo. Tavai is well positioned to repeat as a worthwhile fantasy option in IDP formats in new defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington's scheme.
