Redskins sign unrestricted free agent linebacker Chris Carter
- March 18, 2017
Butler plans to move to safety this season after beginning to make the conversion last season. Butler's main asset is his versatility, capable of playing in a number of secondary roles. Butler rejoins third-year safety Clayton Geathers and second-year safety T.J. Green in a position group that will welcome his experience.

Sean Dyche: Sunderland fans will be expecting a win against Burnley

Rams re-sign kicker Greg Zuerlein to 3-year deal
- March 17, 2017
Rams announce they have agreed to terms with K Greg Zuerlein on 3 year contract.

Gennady Golovkin vs Daniel Jacobs
- March 17, 2017

A sexy name is not what we need, says Boro chairman
