Lynch completed six of seven passes for 74 yards in Thursday's preseason opener against the Bears, adding three carries for five yards.
As planned, Lynch played the entire second half in his first NFL appearance, but he spent most of his time handing the ball off to RB Kapri Bibbs. Although the stat line doesn't look bad at first glance, Lynch took a trio of sacks and didn't lead his team to any points. While technically considered to be a part of the QB competition, the rookie is still a long shot to beat out both Mark Sanchez and Trevor Siemian before Week 1.
