Dallas Cowboys right tackle La’el Collins told Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram he underwent surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff after the 2018 season. Per Hill, Collins said Dallas will “be cautious with him throughout OTAs and minicamp.” Collins believes he will be ready for training camp in July.

As if the MCL sprain wasn’t bad enough, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers played through a tibial plateau fracture last season, he disclosed on ESPN Milwaukee. The injury, sustained during the first half of the Week 1 game against Chicago, limited Rodgers for much of the season but did not sideline him for any games. “If you watch the hit back, just my two bones that come together on the outside just kind of made an indent fracture,” Rodgers said in an interview that aired on Tuesday but was conducted on Monday. “Very painful.

As Curry took his warmup shirt after starting line up openings, while showing the […]

Former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant signed with the Oakland Raiders on Wednesday. Grant becomes the latest addition to the Raiders’ revamped wide receiver corps this offseason, joining trade addition Antonio Brown and free-agent addition Tyrell Williams. Grant, 28, struggled to find a niche in the Colts’ offense last season, as it didn’t take long for him to slide down the team’s depth chart. The thought last season was that Grant would come in with extra motivation and solve the question on who would be the Colts’ second receiver to go with T.Y. Hilton after the Baltimore Ravens decided against signing Grant after the team said he failed his physical. Grant battled […]
