Jacoby Brissett Tosses Two Touchdowns In Preseason Win
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett turned in a very good performance in the three-point win over the Kansas City Chiefs in the team's preseason opener. The veteran signal-caller finished the game with 81 yards and two touchdowns on 5-for-8 passing and one carry for 10 yards. His first score of the game came on a screen pass to Emari Demercado, while the second was on a great throw to second-year receiver Xavier Weaver in the end zone. Brissett has proven to be a reliable backup ... [More...]
Marvin Harrison Jr. Snags One Catch Against Chiefs
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. carried incredibly high expectations entering his rookie season, and in some ways, failed to reach those lofty goals. Now, entering his second season, he's looking to build some better chemistry with Kyler Murray and connect more often. In their first preseason game on Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs, Harrison caught one of his two targets for 15 yards early in the first quarter. His only other target was a terrible throw from Murray... [More...]
Jarrett Stidham Sharp in Preseason Win Over 49ers
Denver Broncos backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham was sharp in the team's 30-9 victory over the hosting San Francisco 49ers on Saturday in the preseason opener, going 14-for-15 passing for 136 yards and two touchdowns while also leading the team in rushing with 36 yards on the ground on his three carries. Stidham took over for Bo Nix after the first-team offense did little with their three series, and he promptly led the Broncos to three scoring drives. Although it was a good showing for the ...

Trey Benson Sees Nine Carries In Preseason Opener
Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson received the most carries out of the backfield in the team's 20-17 preseason win over the Kansas City Chiefs. The second-year back out of Florida State finished with nine carries for 29 yards and one catch for 20 yards on his lone target. The efficiency on the ground wasn't particularly shining through this game, but he did show some explosive moments and took a short pass from Kyler Murray for 20 yards near the end of the first quarter, which set ...

Bo Nix Throws for 31 Yards in Preseason Opener
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix and the first-team offense did very little in their preseason opener against the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday in an eventual 30-9 blowout win. Nix played into the second quarter at Levi's Stadium and finished 6-for-11 passing for 31 yards with no touchdowns and an interception. The 25-year-old second-year signal-caller only averaged 2.8 yards per attempt and spread the ball around to receivers Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims Jr. and Troy Franklin and ... [More...]
Emari Demercado Plays Big Role In Passing Game
Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado finished as the high man in receiving yards during the 20-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. The third-year back saw three carries for seven yards, but did most of his damage through the air as he collected two receptions for 56 yards and a touchdown on two targets. Towards the end of the second quarter, Demercado caught a screen pass from Jacoby Brissett and raced 43 yards for a touchdown while making a couple of defenders miss. With... [More...]
Kyler Murray Shows Solid Accuracy Outside Of One Miscue
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray saw almost one quarter of playing time in the team's first preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs and posted a solid showing outside of one big mistake. In the 20-17 victory, Murray finished with 96 yards on 7-for-8 passing with one interception, and two carries for nine yards. While the interception was quite the egregious mistake, since the throw was straight to the defense, his play overall was what everyone would expect. He found Michael ... [More...]
Jordan Addison Efficient In Preseason Opener
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison was quarterback J.J. McCarthy's top target on Saturday, as the pair connected three times for 33 yards on Minnesota's opening drive against Houston. Justin Jefferson (hamstring) was held out, but Addison served as the clear preferred target on the only drive in which the Vikings' starting offense played. The third-year pro is facing a three-game suspension to begin the season, but has proven to be a capable fantasy WR2/flex option in spite of the... [More...]
Sam Howell Effective In Vikings Debut
Quarterback Sam Howell played well in his Minnesota Vikings debut, completing 11 of 13 passing attempts for 105 yards and adding a rushing touchdown in a 20-10 victory against Houston. The former North Carolina star is now on his third team in three years after Minnesota traded for him during the NFL Draft, adding a veteran option behind presumptive starter J.J. McCarthy. Howell has the inside track on the No. 2 job over journeyman backup Brett Rypien and undrafted rookie Max Brosmer, and ... [More...]
Ryan Miller Records Six Receptions on Saturday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Ryan Miller was active during Saturday's preseason opener against the Tennessee Titans. Miller hauled in six of his seven targets for 66 yards in the blowout victory. The Bucs didn't play a majority of their starters for long in this game. Both Jalen McMillan and Emeka Egbuka each saw two targets. Miller is fighting for a role as a depth player to start the season. The 25-year-old hauled in 12 receptions for 128 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games with the ... [More...]
