Ryan Mallett throws two picks in preseason Week 2.

The Ravens backup quarterback was 13/22 for 113 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions against Miami. Mallett flashed his arm talent, throwing a few pinpoint passes, but he also showed some inaccuracy, including on some short throws. With Joe Flacco resting his back, look for Mallett to take all the first-team reps in practice this week and start the third preseason game with the Ravens offense.

LeSean McCoy carries four times in Bills’ second preseason game.

Shady had four carries for 21 yards, along with an 11-yard reception. He looked about as good as you’d expect, and will be an easy RB1 this season. McCoy might lead the league in carries in 2017.

Dalton throws ugly interception in first action of 2017.

The Bengals quarterback was 4/5 for 38 yards, but his interception occurred on the steps of the goal line as he allowed Vernon Hargreaves III to jump an out route. It was only the preseason, but plays like that from Dalton are part of the reason the Bengals have been held back. He will to bounce back from his mistake next week against Kansas City.

Alshon Jeffery plays in first preseason game as an Eagle.

The big receiver was targeted a lot in his limited action, catching two-of-five targets for 23 yards. Quarterback Carson Wentz, who just lost his most trusted receiver Jordan Matthews to a trade, might be looking Jeffery’s way a lot this season. Wentz forced an end zone fade into double coverage to him, but it was out of bounds. The Eagles have taken things slow/soft with Jeffery through the preseason, but he should get a good amount of playing time in the third preseason game next Thursday.

Jalin Marshall starts opposite Robby Anderson in preseason Week 1.

Despite being suspended the first four games of the season, Marshall worked as the number two receiver for the Jets. He had a 15-yard reception on a nice catch where he stepped in front of the defender. It might be accurate to believe Marshall’s roster spot is safe, with him starting ahead of so many other young guys in the group.

LeGarrette Blount gets involved in passing game in Week 2 of the preseason.

Blount had five carries for only eight yards, but added two receptions for 15 yards. The Eagles offensive line did not open many holes for Blount, so hopefully that doesn’t continue to be an issue when the regular season arrives. Used primarily as a runner throughout his career, Blount looks like he’ll be more involved in the passing game on check downs from Carson Wentz this season. Blount appears to be the clear early-down back for the Eagles.

Albert Wilson starts for the Chiefs in opening preseason game.

He didn’t make any catches, but Wilson appears to be the number three receiver behind Tyreek Hill and Chris Conley. During the game, Alex Smith said Wilson has had a great camp. Wilson will likely get most of the snaps as the third receiver in 2017, but he’ll likely often swap in and out of the game with Demarcus Robinson and others.
