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.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver
Diontae Johnson caught one of his three targets for a seven-yard gain in a 22-13 preseason win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Johnson got the start for the Browns and was able to haul in a seven-yard pass on the team's first drive of the game, helping lead to a four-yard
Ahmani Marshall touchdown run. The veteran wideout fared better than he did in the team's preseason opener last week, where he was unable to corral either of his two targets. Johnson and
Jamari Thrash appear to be locked into a battle for the team's WR3 job behind
Jerry Jeudy and
Cedric Tillman. He will look to separate himself from Thrash next week in Cleveland's preseason finale against the Los Angeles Rams.
--Matt TerelleSource: NFL.com
August 17, 2025
Cleveland Browns wide receiver
Cedric Tillman caught his lone target for an 18-yard gain in a 22-13 preseason win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Tillman got the start and played for a short time after he did not suit up for the team's preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers last week. The third-year wideout hauled in his lone target on the Browns' second drive of the game. Tillman had some big weeks late in the 2024 season before a concussion ended his year early, but he still holds plenty of fantasy value as a sleeper in a Cleveland receiver room that is wide open behind
Jerry Jeudy. He's worth a look as a dart throw WR6 late in fantasy drafts later this summer.

Cleveland Browns running back
Pierre Strong Jr. carried the ball 13 times for 89 yards and caught four of his five targets for 10 yards in a 22-13 preseason win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. With
Jerome Ford inactive, Strong got the start and led the team in rushing in the game. He made a good impression as he averaged 6.8 yards per carry, including a 54-yard run that he ripped off early in the fourth quarter. Strong is fighting for a depth role behind Ford and
Dylan Sampson as the Browns near their preseason finale against the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday.

Cleveland Browns quarterback
Dillon Gabriel completed 13 of his 18 passes for 143 yards and an interception in a 22-13 preseason win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Gabriel also rushed twice for one yard and lost a fumble in the win. The rookie signal-caller got off to a fast start, completing eight of his nine pass attempts in the first quarter before cooling off in the second. Gabriel led a touchdown drive and two field-goal drives during his half of play, but his interception was ugly as he threw a 75-yard pick-six early in the second quarter. Gabriel, who missed last week's preseason opener with a hamstring injury, will look to continue to compete to open the regular season as the Browns' starting quarterback. The team's preseason finale comes against the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday.

Kicker
Jake Moody was responsible for nearly all of the 49ers' points in their 22-19 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. Moody tacked on the extra point for
Jeff Wilson Jr.'s touchdown in the second quarter and was 5-for-6 on field goal attempts. The lone miss was from 53 yards out, but the 25-year-old hit from 26, 30, 44, and 50 yards away before capping his day off with a 59-yarder as time expired to put San Francisco over the top. The performance was encouraging, though fantasy managers still don't need to go out of their way to select him in drafts. Last season, Moody was 10-for-20 on kicks beyond 40 yards, and since joining the league in 2023, his 76.3% conversion rate ranks last among kickers with at least 30 field goal attempts in that time. Moody gets one last tune-up before the regular season when the 49ers host the Chargers on August 23.

Wide receiver
Robbie Chosen caught five of his seven targets for 92 receiving yards in the 49ers' 22-19 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. His numbers led the team in each category in San Francisco's second preseason game. The 32-year-old veteran is buried on the depth chart, even with the statuses of
Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and
Jauan Jennings (calf) in question. Chosen spent each of the last two seasons with the Miami Dolphins, shuttling between their practice squad and regular roster. The journeyman wideout spent the 2024 preseason with the 49ers but was among the final cuts when the team finalized its 53-man roster ahead of the regular season. Chosen's final in-game audition for a roster spot will come August 23 when the Niners wrap up the preseason against the Los Angeles Chargers.
--Dan StephensSource: NFL.com
August 17, 2025
Running back
Jeff Wilson Jr. scored the 49ers' lone touchdown in the team's 22-19 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. It was Wilson's first game back with his former team after having spent the last three seasons with the Dolphins. The 29-year-old signed a one-year deal with the Niners earlier this week after
Ameer Abdullah (ribs) was placed on injured reserve. Wilson finished the game with just 16 yards on the ground, but his eight rushing attempts were second-most on the team. He also had another 16 yards on his sole reception of the game. Wilson will have one more chance to jockey for placement on the depth chart before the regular season. The 49ers' final preseason game is August 23 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

August 17, 2025
Quarterback
Mac Jones was a crisp 13-for-16 for 135 passing yards in the 49ers' 22-19 win over the Raiders on Saturday afternoon. Jones got off to a shaky start after taking the reins from
Brock Purdy, who helmed San Francisco's first drive. On his third pass attempt of the game, Jones sent a ball to wide receiver
Robbie Chosen, but the route was easily jumped by Raiders safety Jeremy Chinn, who intercepted the pass. Jones recovered well following the miscue, putting touch on his passes and hitting receivers in stride before handing things over to
Carter Bradley in the fourth quarter. Jones' place as Purdy's direct backup on San Francisco's depth chart is secure. He will get one more chance to see live action before the regular season in the 49ers' final preseason game on August 23 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
--Dan StephensSource: NFL.com
August 17, 2025
Quarterback
Brock Purdy saw his first action of the 2025 preseason, though he was limited to just the first drive of the 49ers' 22-19 win over the Raiders on Saturday. It was announced prior to the game that Purdy would manage the first one or two drives, depending on their length, so that he could get in-game reps and develop chemistry with his receiving corps. The newly minted 265-million-dollar man showed plenty of chemistry with second-year wideout
Ricky Pearsall. Purdy's first three pass attempts went to Pearsall, who secured them all for a total of 42 yards. Purdy completed two other passes on the 11-play drive, finishing 5-for-7 for 66 yards. Four of the five completions went for at least 11 yards. The 49ers' next and final tune-up before the regular season comes on August 23 when they take on their former head coach, Jim Harbaugh, and his Los Angeles Chargers.

August 17, 2025
New York Jets wide receiver
Garrett Wilson could not bring in any of his three targets in Saturday's 31-12 loss to the New York Giants. Quarterback
Justin Fields attempted just five passes across the Jets' two series, with three of them going the 25-year-old's way. However, Wilson was arguably interfered with on two of his three opportunities, so the former Ohio State teammates aren't totally to blame for the seeming lack of chemistry. Either way, it appears that the wideout will be a target-hog again in his fourth professional campaign. A run-heavy New York offense could cause touchdown opportunities to be sparse. Wilson should be productive anyway, given the lack of receiving options around him. Look for him and his new QB to notch their first connection in the Jets' preseason finale, a home matchup with the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.

New York Jets quarterback
Justin Fields completed 1-of-5 passes for four yards in Saturday's 31-12 loss to the New York Giants. He added five yards on his lone rush. The 26-year-old and the other Jets' starters got just two drives in this one, and the signal-caller had a rough time connecting with his intended targets. Still, he managed to score three points on their second possession, despite dropping back only twice. If that drive is any indication of how Gang Green projects to operate, we can expect some iteration of a West Coast offense from them - bombarding defenses with a run-centric approach and a short, quick passing attack. It seems likely that Fields and the rest of the first-stringers will get an extended look in their preseason finale as a final tune-up before the regular season. That comes against the visiting Philadelphia Eagles next Friday night.

August 17, 2025
Detroit Lions quarterback
Hendon Hooker had his third straight subpar preseason showing on Saturday against the Miami Dolphins. The third-year signal-caller entered the game in the second half and completed just six of 13 passes for 61 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. Hooker was significantly outplayed by Lions quarterback
Kyle Allen, who has started two out of the team's three preseason games and looks like the best option to back up
Jared Goff when the regular season begins. Hooker was a third-round pick in 2023 and spent his rookie season recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered in college, so he may need more time to develop. However, he's already 27 and does not appear ready to be the team's QB2, which likely puts him on the roster bubble in Detroit.

August 17, 2025
Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver
Isaac TeSlaa continues to stand out in preseason action, recording four catches for 41 yards and a touchdown on Saturday against the Miami Dolphins. A third-round selection out of Arkansas, TeSlaa had just 28 catches last year for the Razorbacks and was thought to be more of a developmental prospect. He's reportedly opened some eyes in training camp practices, and he's logged 105 receiving yards and two touchdowns in three preseason games. TeSlaa could be pushing veteran wide receiver
Tim Patrick for the WR3 job in Detroit before the regular season even begins.

August 17, 2025
Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver
Jackson Meeks had his second straight impressive preseason performance on Saturday against the Miami Dolphins. Meeks was targeted eight times and hauled in seven catches for 93 yards and one touchdown. Signed as an undrafted free agent out of Syracuse, Meeks is making his case for a roster spot in Detroit with stellar preseason play. In three games so far, he's recorded 11 catches for 176 yards and two touchdowns. The Lions are deep at wide receiver, so Meeks is still a long shot to be fantasy-relevant in 2025, barring injury to multiple Detroit wideouts.
--Will BradySource: ESPN.com
August 17, 2025
Detroit Lions quarterback
Kyle Allen got the start on Saturday in the team's third preseason game against the Miami Dolphins and played well. Allen completed 14 of 17 pass attempts for 124 yards and two touchdowns, finishing the night with a passer rating of 136.3. The veteran played the entire first half before being replaced by third-year signal-caller
Hendon Hooker at the start of the third quarter. Allen and Hooker are competing for the QB2 job in Detroit behind
Jared Goff, but Allen has now significantly outplayed Hooker in back-to-back preseason games. Based on how the two have performed this summer, Allen should be considered the favorite to open the season as the primary backup quarterback for the Lions.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back
Omarion Hampton played only the first series in the Chargers' last-second 23-22 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Showing his burst and tackle-breaking ability on limited touches, the 22-year-old rushed for 17 yards on just two carries. The first-round pick from UNC, who posted 1,660 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns in 12 games his junior year, is rising up draft boards as veteran RB
Najee Harris' (eye) availability for the start of the season is still unknown.

August 17, 2025
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver
Scotty Miller logged two receptions for 38 yards on two targets in a 17-14 preseason loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The sixth-year pro continues to impress this summer in a Pittsburgh receiving corps that lacks proven commodities outside of
D.K. Metcalf. He made a sliding catch in the second quarter on a deep ball from quarterback
Skylar Thompson for a gain of 23 yards. Although there is no guarantee Miller makes the 53-man roster, he has certainly made a stronger case than fellow veteran
Robert Woods, who has just one catch through two exhibition contests. The 28-year-old appeared in 13 games with the Steelers last season and has ties to offensive coordinator Arthur Smith dating back to his 2023 campaign with the Atlanta Falcons. He'll look to keep rolling in the team's final preseason bout with the Carolina Panthers on Thursday.

August 17, 2025
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback
Trey Lance led the team in passing and rushing during a last-second 23-22 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams, making a strong case to be the QB2 entering the season. The former first-round pick completed 7 of 15 passes for 121 yards and gained 25 rushing yards on four attempts. Lance showed good chemistry with rookies Tré Harris and
Keandre Lambert-Smith on deep throws and appeared more confident in his passing throughout the game. He nearly threw a game-sealing touchdown pass on a perfectly thrown ball at the end of the fourth quarter, but the miss ultimately led to the Rams' final scoring drive. After an impressive preseason, it would be a surprise if Lance isn't named the official backup to
Justin Herbert.

August 17, 2025
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Ladd McConkey had a quiet night, catching one pass for 17 yards in the team's 23-22 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The 2024 second-round pick out of Georgia is expected to be the Chargers' WR1 again after a strong rookie season, posting 182 receptions, 1,149 yards, and seven touchdowns. McConkey focused on building his strength this offseason to stay healthy for a full season after dealing with injuries at the end of last year. He is projected as WR11 by RotoBaller.

August 16, 2025
New York Giants running back
Devin Singletary wasn't very involved in Saturday's preseason win over the Jets, amassing five yards off two carries. However, he made up for it by scoring a touchdown in the first quarter.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. is the team's starter. That's not expected to change anytime soon. However, with
Cam Skattebo (hamstring) having trouble getting on the field during the preseason, Singletary has a chance to remain more involved than anticipated to begin the 2025 campaign. Still, the 27-year-old has a way to go before earning a spot on fantasy rosters heading into the Week 1 opener versus the Washington Commanders. The Giants will close out the preseason on Thursday night against the Patriots.
