Nix completed six of 11 passes for 31 yards in the Broncos' 30-9 preseason win over the 49ers on Saturday night.

Nix averaged a meager 2.8 yards per attempt but certainly got his reps in during Denver's exhibition opener. The second-year signal-caller spread the ball around during his time in the contest, connecting with Troy Franklin, J.K. Dobbins, Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims and RJ Harvey, albeit with none of those completions going for longer than nine yards. Nix ended up playing early into the second quarter, but given the middling results for the first-team offense, he's likely in for another solid allotment of playing time in the Broncos' second preseason contest next Saturday night at home against the Cardinals.

Bennett completed 16 of 24 passes for 188 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Saturday's 31-21 preseason win over the Cowboys. He also rushed three times for 11 yards.

Bennett player the entire game, with neither Matthew Stafford (back) nor Jimmy Garoppolo suiting up. The third-string quarterback led touchdown drives on each of the Rams' first two possessions, though both were capped by Blake Corum touchdown runs. Bennett was picked off in the third quarter, then finished strong with fourth-quarter touchdown passes of nine yards to Cody Schrader and five yards to Brennan Presley. Bennett seems locked into the third spot on the depth chart ahead of the team's second preseason game Aug. 16 against the Chargers.

Murray completed seven of eight passes for 96 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while adding two rushes for nine yards during the Cardinals' 20-17 preseason win over the Chiefs on Saturday night.

Murray's night got off to a rousing start in the form of 12- and 15-yard completions to Michael Wilson and Marvin Harrison, respectively, which he bookended with his pair of scrambles. However, Murray's third pass attempt -- intended for Harrison -- was picked off, although he bounced back to lead a 10-play, 67-yard march on his next possession that culminated in a field goal. Murray had several more noteworthy connections during the drive, including a 21-yard strike to Trey McBride and two completions to Greg Dortch that totaled that amount as well. The interception aside, it was a positive start to the preseason for the veteran signal-caller, who'll next face the Broncos on the road next Saturday night in Arizona's second preseason tilt.

Mahomes completed his only pass attempt for a one-yard touchdown during the Chiefs' 20-17 preseason loss to the Cardinals on Saturday night.

The Chiefs' offense was set up in prime field position after the Cardinals lost a fumble on the opening kickoff, and after an incompletion on his first pass was wiped out by a defensive pass interference penalty against Will Johnson, Mahomes connected with Jason Brownlee for a one-yard touchdown pass on the next play. The two-time MVP was done for the night at that point, but he's almost certainly due for a longer stint in Kansas City's second preseason game Friday night on the road against the Seahawks.

Thompson completed 20 of 28 passes for 233 yards and three touchdowns while rushing once for three yards during Saturday's 31-25 preseason win over the Jaguars.

The 2022 seventh-rounder seems like a longshot to make the Steelers' 53-man roster to begin the regular season behind Aaron Rodgers, Mason Rudolph and Will Howard (hand), but Thompson made a strong impression during Saturday's preseason opener. The 28-year-old should continue to get increased reps while Howard is sidelined, but it seems most likely that Thompson is competing for a spot on Pittsburgh's practice squad or a roster spot elsewhere.

Love completed one of five passes for seven yards during the Packers' 30-10 preseason loss to the Jets on Saturday night.

Love was in on Green Bay's first two possessions, but as his final line implies, he couldn't get much going despite having some familiar faces around him at the skill positions. Love threw incomplete to Romeo Doubs on his first two attempts and then failed to connect with Malik Heath on his first throw of the Packers' second drive, but he finally got on the board with a seven-yard strike to rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden. Love ended up taking a sack on his final dropback of the night, making it a rocky start to the preseason. The 2020 first-round pick is likely in for a longer stint under center during the Packers' second preseason game, which comes on the road against the Colts next Saturday afternoon.

Fields completed three of four passes for 42 yards and rushed twice for 14 yards and a touchdown during the Jets' 30-10 preseason win over the Packers on Saturday night.

The first-team offense took the field for the Jets to start the game, and Fields was able to lead a 10-play, 79-yard drive that he capped off with a 13-yard touchdown run on New York's first possession. The veteran offseason addition was done for the night following the score, but he had his moments as a passer as well with 12- and 24-yard completions to Andrew Beck. Fields' first foray in his new offensive system has to be deemed a success, and he's likely to get even more reps during next Saturday night's exhibition against the Giants.

Brosmer was 5-of-8 passing for 47 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason win over Houston.

Brosmer entered the game in the fourth quarter and outplayed Brett Rypien in the battle for the No. 3 QB role. It seems unlikely the Vikings will keep three quarterbacks on the roster, making Brosmer, an undrafted free agent from Minnesota, a more likely candidate for the practice squad.

Ward completed five of eight passes for 67 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in Saturday's 29-7 preseason loss to the Buccaneers.

Ward got his first experience as a starter in the NFL and led two drives. The Titans went three-and-out on the first possession, but he then led an 11-play, 65-yard touchdown drive, during which he showed strong rapport with Calvin Ridley -- the duo connected for gains of 27, 10 and 13 yards. It was a limited sample for Ward, but it was an encouraging debut as he prepares to start from Day 1 of the regular season.

Lawrence completed six of seven passes for 43 yards in Saturday's 31-25 preseason loss to the Steelers.

Lawrence played Jacksonville's first offensive possession and led the offense to a field goal. He was accurate but threw exclusively short passes, with his longest completion going for only 11 yards. Lawrence played with the entire first-team offense, and it's unclear if coach Liam Cohen plans for his starting quarterback to retake the field during the rest of the preseason.
