It does not appear that […]

Detrez Newsome Looks To Shine
Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Detrez Newsome got off to a hot start last week by scoring a nice touchdown in his first NFL preseason game. This week versus the Seahawks, expect Newsome to get plenty of looks once again. Newsome is competing to be the third-string running back for the Chargers behind Melvin […]

Kareem Hunt Struggles in Second Preseason Game
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt saw more attempts in the second preseason game on Friday, but failed to do much with the ball. Hunt collected a total of 15 yards on seven attempts for an average of 2.1 yards per carry. It's early in camp, so the Chiefs aren't going to overload Hunt […]

Dalvin Cook Will Not Play in Preseason Week 2
Minnesota Vikings sophomore running back Dalvin Cook will not be playing on Saturday afternoon against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Cook says that he is absolutely 100% ready to go for Week 1 of the regular season, but the Vikings are still taking a cautious approach.

Chad Henne, Matt McGloin Continue Battling for Backup QB
Kansas City Chiefs quarterbacks Chad Henne and Matt McGloin are putting on an impressive battle for backup QB. It appears that Patrick Mahomes is going to be the starting quarterback in KC, but injuries happen and his lack of experience is showing on the field. Through two games Henne has completed 16-for-24 passes with two […]

Patrick Mahomes Plays Well on Friday
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes started off slow in Friday's preseason game against the Falcons, but finished with a bang. Mahomes completed eight of twelve passes for 138 yards and one touchdown with one interception on Friday. The word from Chiefs camp is Mahomes has been struggling with interceptions and he threw one right […]

Bills Pass Defense Solid, Suspect Against the Run
The Buffalo Bills defense played well for the most part against the Cleveland Browns in Friday's 19-17 win. The Browns went only 11 of 24 through the air for a measly 83 yards. The Bills ranked 20th against the pass in 2017 with 3,688 yards registered against them. They do, however, possess big play-making ability, […]

Kenyan Drake Rushes for 54 Yards in Preseason Loss Friday
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake rushed for 54 yards on eight carries in the Dolphins' 27-20 preseason loss to the Panthers. He also caught three passes for four yards.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill was 14-for-17 passing for 100 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions in the Dolphins 27-20 preseason loss to the Panthers. Tannehill got much more playing time this game compared to last week, when he only played one series and attempted six passes. Tannehill is looking healthy after coming off […]

Nathan Peterman Efficient in Closing Out Bills Victory
Buffalo Bills quarterback Nathan Peterman is now fully in the hunt for the starter's role. A.J. McCarron's early-game shoulder injury Friday against the Cleveland Browns has appeared to clear a path for either Peterman or strong-armed rookie Josh Allen to take on Week 1 duties. Peterman, although extremely limited, (two games started in 2017 rookie season, […]

Cam Newton Plays Two Quarters In Second Week Of Preseason
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton stepped up his preparations for the regular season, putting in two quarters of work.

The interception was a result of a poor decision to throw into double […]

Christian McCaffrey Continues To Impress In Preseason
Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey for the second week in a row looked very impressive, taking the majority of the snaps with the starters and showcasing his talent both on the ground and in the air. On his second touch of the game, McCaffrey broke off a long run of 71 yards, taking the […]

Eric Saubert Gets A Reception Friday
Atlanta Falcons tight end Eric Saubert registered a single reception for 24 yards in the Falcons preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs Friday.

Logan Paulsen Does Not Register A Reception Friday
Atlanta Falcons tight end Logan Paulsen did not register a reception in the game Friday. Paulsen entered the game second on the depth chart, but he is a in a battle with Eric Saubert for that spot.

Austin Hooper Catches Touchdown Friday
Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper caught a touchdown from Matt Ryan in the preseason game Friday.

Smith's struggles Friday were […]

Tevin Coleman Performs Well Friday
Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman put in a good performance Friday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Coleman rushed the ball five times for 35 yards, averaging seven yards per rush. It is interesting to see that the Falcons have been choosing not to play Devonta Freeman, but keeping Coleman active. That suggests Coleman is […]

Garrett Grayson Sees Limited Time Friday
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Garrett Grayson did not see much time on the field in the preseason game Friday. Grayson threw three passes, with two completions for 14 yards. Grayson came into the game late in the fourth quarter, after Kurt Benkert had struggled. Prior to this game it appeared Grayson was a distant fourth on […]

Matt Schaub Solid In Second Preseason Game
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Schaub had a solid outing in the Falcons second preseason game against the Chiefs. The Falcons backup went 7-for-10 with 75 yards and a touchdown. Schaub threw the most passes of all of the Falcons quarterbacks, and his solid performance will likely have strengthened his position as the backup to Matt […]

AJ McCarron Suffers Broken Collarbone
Updating a previous report, Buffalo Bills quarterback AJ McCarron (shoulder) suffered a hairline fracture in his collarbone during the preseason game on Friday against the Browns, according to a source close to McCarron. He was competing for the starting job this preseason but is now a candidate to go on the Injured Reserve-designated to return. […]

Nick Williams Should Be Very Involved Saturday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Williams started at wide receiver in the team's Week 1 preseason game due to injuries to Rishard Matthews and Corey Davis. Because of this, Williams played somewhat sparingly, catching one pass for 38 yards. Look for Williams to be a little more involved Saturday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as […]

Akrum Wadley Needs To Impress Saturday
Tennessee Titans rookie running back Akrum Wadley looked solid in his debut last week, aside from the fumble. However, he will need to build off of that performance this week in order to keep pace with David Fluellen in the race for the team's number three running back spot. Wadley likely outmatches Fluellen when it […]

Marcus Mariota Expected To Play More Saturday
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota and the first-team offense is expected to get more playing time on Saturday than they did in Week 1 of the preseason, according to Jim Wyatt. Mariota only played one drive in the preseason opener, but he looked sharp, completing two of three passes for 42 yards and a touchdown. […]

Mike Glennon Nursing Forearm Injury
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Mike Glennon (forearm) is nursing a forearm injury and did not play in the preseason game on Friday, according to head coach Steve Wilks. Glennon is third on the QB depth chart behind Sam Bradford and rookie Josh Rosen, so he has no fantasy value heading into the 2018 season.

AJ McCarron Injures Shoulder Friday
Buffalo Bills quarterback AJ McCarron (shoulder) suffered a right shoulder injury in the preseason game against the Browns on Friday.

Nick Chubb Finds End Zone Friday
Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb turned in an excellent game against the Buffalo Bills on Friday. Chubb carried the ball 11 times for 53 yards while adding a touchdown and two catches. This was a welcome performance after Chubb struggled the previous week, gaining just 11 yards on 15 carries. Against Buffalo, Chubb looked […]

Baker Mayfield Solid In Preseason Game Friday
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield played well in his second preseason game on Friday. Facing the Buffalo Bills, Mayfield completed 7-of-13 passes for 75 yards while adding four rushes for nine yards.

Fade Nyheim Hines Of The Colts
Indianapolis Colts rookie running back Nyheim Hines has an outside shot of getting the starting job. However, he has struggled recently in training camp and the first bit of preseason action. Marlon Mack and Christine Michael are the veterans that will get the majority of the carries. Hines may be worthy of a late-round stash […]
