Denver Broncos tight end
Evan Engram recently praised second-year wide receiver
Troy Franklin, saying that it's "really evident (Franklin) is going to have a big year." A fourth-round pick in 2024, Franklin recorded 28 catches for 263 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games as a rookie. The 22-year-old has had a strong preseason so far, recording nine catches for 85 yards and two touchdowns across the team's first two games.
Courtland Sutton is the clear WR1 in Denver, but there's an opportunity for Franklin to emerge as the WR2 amongst a group that also includes
Marvin Mims Jr.,
Devaughn Vele, and rookie
Pat Bryant.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Emeka Egbuka didn't see a ton of action, but was able to help his team during their second preseason matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday. Egbuka was on the field for the first three drives and made an impact during his little time on the field. The rookie wideout hauled in one of his two targets for a five-yard touchdown. It was an impressive corner grab by Egbuka and a solid throw by quarterback
Teddy Bridgewater. Egbuka could be asked to make an impact early in the season if
Chris Godwin (ankle) is sidelined to start the season.

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh officially named rookie
Tyler Loop the team's starting kicker after he nailed five field goals in preseason action against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday night. Loop has been the only kicker on the roster since the Ravens released
John Hoyland earlier this month, but Harbaugh's statement indicates that Baltimore does not plan to bring in another veteran. A sixth-round pick out of Arizona, Loop made 83.8% of his field goals and 98.4% of his extra-point attempts in 50 career college games. He's made six out of his eight preseason field goal attempts so far.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Bucky Irving played the first three offensive drives during Saturday's preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Irving was one of the few offensive skill-position players to actually take the field on Saturday. The 22-year-old didn't have a ton of success as he rushed eight times for 12 yards on the ground. However, Irving made up for it with a 15-yard touchdown grab from
Teddy Bridgewater. Irving is penciled in as the primary back in Tampa Bay with
Rachaad White mixing in for carries as well.

Baltimore Ravens running back
Keaton Mitchell (hamstring) has a hamstring injury, but he will be "fine for the opener," according to Ravens head coach John Harbaugh. Harbaugh also did not rule Mitchell out for the Ravens' final preseason game against the Washington Commanders next Saturday. A torn ACL that he suffered in Week 15 of 2023 limited Mitchell to just five games in 2024, so it's unfortunate to see him battling injuries once again. Thankfully, this ailment does not appear to be particularly serious. Once he returns, Mitchell will be competing with
Justice Hill and
Rasheen Ali for playing time in the Baltimore backfield behind
Derrick Henry.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback
Teddy Bridgewater drew the start under center for Saturday's preseason contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bucs decided to rest most of their starters again, so
Baker Mayfield didn't take the field during this game. That being said, Bridgewater led the first three drives and looked sharp on the field. He completed 6-of-11 passing attempts for 85 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the win. Bridgewater is currently fighting for the backup gig with
Kyle Trask. The latter also played on Saturday, but Trask completed only 3-of-10 passing attempts for 19 yards. Bridgewater appears to be the favorite to be the backup in Tampa Bay, but that doesn't come with much fantasy value while Mayfield is healthy.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver
Devontez Walker bounced back from a catch-less preseason debut to lead all of their pass-catchers in the 31-13 win over the Dallas Cowboys. The former fourth-round pick caught six of his eight targets for 61 yards (10.2 yards per catch). Four of his targets came on the Ravens' second drive, and he contributed 25 yards to lead to a field goal eventually. Walker has been showing some great catching ability, even when it happens after the whistle, despite the below-average quarterback play from
Cooper Rush and
Devin Leary this preseason. Walker likely won't crack the top three unless someone gets hurt, but he could make some strides for the future.

Baltimore Ravens running back
Rasheen Ali saw the most work out of the backfield on Saturday in the win over the Dallas Cowboys. The second year back out of Marshall finished with 62 yards on 19 carries and one catch for 10 yards on two targets. While it wasn't the most efficient game, Ali showed some good bursts of speed here and there. Unfortunately, for his case,
D'Ernest Johnson had one fewer yard on eight fewer carries and even scored a touchdown. Ali now has 99 yards and one touchdown on 28 carries through two preseason games. He will have one more game to stake his claim for the RB3 spot against the Washington Commanders.

Indianapolis Colts tight end
Tyler Warren caught one of his three targets for a 25-yard gain in a 23-19 preseason loss to the Green Bay Packers on Saturday. Warren continues to look sharp for the Colts after they used the No. 14 overall pick in the draft to select him. He has now caught four of his seven targets for 65 yards through two preseason games. Warren is worth a look as a low-end TE1 in fantasy drafts as the regular season approaches.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Michael Pittman Jr. caught two of his three targets for 31 yards in a 23-19 preseason loss to the Green Bay Packers. Making his preseason debut after resting last week against the Baltimore Ravens, Pittman finished second on the Colts in receiving yards in the loss. Pittman played through a back injury that limited his production in 2024, but he is fully healthy now. He is on the radar in fantasy as a WR4 with upside heading into the 2025 season.

Indianapolis Colts running back
Jonathan Taylor carried the ball once for nine yards and was not targeted in the passing game in a 23-19 preseason loss to the Green Bay Packers on Saturday. Taylor got the start and looked good on his lone carry before calling it a day in the close loss to Green Bay. The veteran running back has little to prove in preseason action as he is locked into a workhorse role for the Colts as the regular season approaches. Taylor sets up as a solid RB1 in fantasy leagues, with durability his main red flag as he's missed 10 games over the past two seasons. He is unlikely to play in the Colts' preseason finale against the Cincinnati Bengals as he turns his eyes toward getting ready for the Miami Dolphins in Week 1.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback
Daniel Jones completed seven of his 11 passes for 101 yards in a 23-19 preseason loss to the Green Bay Packers on Saturday. Jones got the start and played the entire first quarter, although he was unable to lead the Colts on any scoring drives in the contest. He then stepped aside as the Colts turned to
Anthony Richardson Sr. in the second quarter. The two signal-callers have been locked in a preseason battle to be the team's starting quarterback in Week 1 in what has appeared to be a close competition thus far. It appears that the team may be ready to name the winner soon, as head coach Shane Steichen told reporters after the game that he's "very close" to naming his Week 1 starter. If Jones ends up getting the call, he would set up as a high-end QB3 for fantasy purposes.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback
Anthony Richardson Sr. completed six of his 11 passes for 73 yards and added a nine-yard rush in a 23-19 preseason loss to the Green Bay Packers on Saturday. Richardson relieved
Daniel Jones and played most of the second quarter, leading the Colts on a 90-yard drive that culminated with a
Tyler Goodson three-yard touchdown run. Richardson and Jones are still locked into a preseason battle for the Colts' QB1 role, but it appears that they won't have to wait much longer. After the game, head coach Shane Steichen told reporters that he's "very close" to naming his starting quarterback. The Colts' preseason finale comes against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday. Richardson would set up as an upside QB2 in fantasy drafts if he emerges from camp as Indy's starter.
