Prescott is not in line to play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Chargers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Per Machota, the plan is for Trey Lance to play the entire game, which would set the stage for both Prescott and Cooper Rush to be held out versus Los Angeles. Prescott's next game action is thus slated to occur on the road against Cleveland on Sept. 8.

Carr is among a number of Saints starters who isn't likely to play in Sunday's preseason finale against Tennessee, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Carr suited up for each of New Orleans' first two preseason games and completed a combined nine of 15 pass attempts for 59 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He's the clear No. 1 quarterback for the Saints heading into the season, so the team will use the final exhibition contest to assess Jake Haener and Spencer Rattler, each of whom is expected to play two quarters Sunday, per Underhill. Haener and Rattler are in close to a dead heat for the backup QB role to open the campaign, so how each performs against the Titans could determine the winner of that battle.

Watson won't play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Seahawks, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

Watson was able to participate in practice throughout the week leading up to the contest, but he was limited Wednesday due to what was described as general arm soreness. Though the signal caller returned to a full session Thursday, the Browns will play it safe with Watson, which sets the stage for his first game action since November of 2023 to occur Sept. 8 against the Cowboys. Per Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal, Jameis Winston is slated to draw the start at QB versus Seattle on Saturday.

Love is among the Packers' healthy key skill players not slated to see action in Saturday's preseason finale against the Ravens, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.

Also in that category are RB Josh Jacobs, WRs Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks as well as TE Luke Musgrave. Love's next start will thus occur Sept. 6 against the Eagles.

Beathard (groin) didn't play in Friday's preseason win over Atlanta, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports..

Beathard's absence from the contest was expected, as he suffered a groin injury during Jacksonville's second exhibition game last Saturday versus Tampa Bay and didn't practice all week. Trevor Lawrence started for the Jaguars on Friday and produced 92 yards through the air along with two touchdowns while completing eight of 10 pass attempts, and Mac Jones played the bulk of the game and looked good in completing 13 of 18 pass attempts for 113 yards and a touchdown. The performance may have given Jones a leg up in the battle with Beathard for the backup quarterback role behind Lawrence, though Jones and Beathard were said to be in a close competition for most of training camp.

Stroud is not in line to play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Rams, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Per Wilson, fellow QBs Case Keenum and Tim Boyle are expected to play extensively Saturday as they compete for slotting behind Stroud and Davis Mills. Stroud's next game action is thus slated to occur Sept. 8 against the Colts, when he'll helm an offense that will feature a pass-catching corps led by WRs Stefon Diggs, Nico Collins and Tank Dell, along with TE Dalton Schultz.

Most of the Giants' starters, including Jones, are expected to be held out of Saturday's preseason finale against the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Jones also skipped New York's preseason opener against Detroit on Aug. 8, but he did suit up for the team's second exhibition contest last Saturday versus Houston, playing the entire first half and completing 11 of 18 passes for 138 yards and two interceptions while adding 12 yards on one carry on the ground. That (and the Giants' preseason joint practices with the Lions and Jets) appear to be enough to satisfy the team's brass in regard to Jones' readiness for the regular season despite the fact that the QB didn't play after Week 9 last year due to a torn ACL. Jones will also be working with a number of different pieces on offense this season -- Darren Waller retired and Saquon Barkley departed to Philadelphia while New York drafted dynamic wideout Malk Nabers with the sixth overall pick in April's NFL Draft.

Goff isn't likely to see action in Saturday's preseason finale against the Steelers, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Goff was held out of the team's first two exhibition contests, and it looks like the Lions will continue to play it safe with their top QB on Saturday. As a result, look for Hendon Hooker, who's competing with Nate Sudfeld for backup slotting behind Goff, to draw the start against Pittsburgh. In that scenario, Goff's next game action will occur Sept. 8 against the Rams.

Lance might play the entirety of Saturday's preseason finale against the Chargers, Nick Harris of DallasCowboys.com report s.

Owner/GM Jerry Jones has stated outright that Lance is locked into a spot on the 53-man roster, but the coaching staff is still trying to figure out what to do with him. The 24-year-old quarterback has had a solid preseason statistically, completing 40 of 64 passes for 339 yards and a touchdown while adding 78 rushing yards and another TD on 13 carries, but his decision-making and ability to read defenses remains erratic. Dak Prescott is the unquestioned starter for Dallas, but Lance could still be in consideration for the No. 2 spot over Cooper Rush depending on his performance Saturday.

Peterman completed 12 of 19 pass attempts for 108 yards and a touchdown in Friday's preseason finale against the 49ers.

Peterman was signed to the Raiders earlier this preseason after getting cut loose by the Saints on Aug. 2. The veteran journeyman rejoins Las Vegas for the second time in his pro career in an attempt to back up journeyman starter Gardner Minshew this upcoming season. Peterman would still have to beat out the current frontrunner for the No. 2 position, Aidan O'Connell, who was one of the healthy scratches in Friday's exhibition.
