Coach Jerod Mayo said Friday that Brissett will start Sunday's preseason finale against Washington, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Brissett started the first two preseason games and completed three of 10 passes for 17 yards (with one interception) over the course of four unimpressive drives. Drake Maye has fared better coming off the bench and reportedly has a chance to get the nod Week 1, but Mayo and offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt both recently said they still view Brissett as their starting quarterback. The final preseason game gives Maye another opportunity to make an impression and potentially leapfrog Brissett before Week 1.

Bean suffered a shoulder injury in Thursday night's preseason win over the Bengals, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Bean was injured while running for a one-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. He was unable to return after visiting the blue medical tent. Prior to exiting, Bean completed all four of his passes for 52 yards and rushed three times for 15 yards and the aforementioned score. Kedon Slovis was the fourth Colts quarterback in the game after Anthony Richardson, Sam Ehlinger and Bean. Joe Flacco did not play.

Richardson completed eight of 14 passes for 86 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Thursday's 27-14 preseason win over the Bengals. He also rushed once for three yards.

Richardson played into the second quarter while Cincinnati rested its starters on both offense and defense. Seven of his completions came on the opening drive, which Richardson capped with a nine-yard touchdown pass to Adonai Mitchell. The good vibes from the first possession were quickly erased by a pick-six on the next possession, then two consecutive three-and-outs. On his fifth and final drive, Richardson had the ball knocked out on a rollout, derailing the possession with an eight-yard loss despite not losing the fumble. His subpar performance against backups Thursday suggests Richardson is still going through some growing pains heading into his second NFL regular season, but his unparalleled mix of size, speed and arm strength gives him an extremely high ceiling. The Colts kick off regular-season play Sunday, Sept. 8 at home against the Texans.

Mills (ribs) returned to practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 Houston reports.

Mills missed last Saturday's preseason game against the Giants with bruised ribs sustained during a preseason tilt the previous week against the Steelers. He looked sharp, per Wilson, delivering touchdown passes to John Metchie and Xavier Hutchinson. It's unclear if Mills will suit up for Saturday's preseason finale against the Rams. One thing that's certain is a healthy Mills will enter the regular season as the backup to C.J. Stroud.

The Bengals plan to rest starters, including Burrow, in Thursday's preseason finale against the Colts, Michael Hull of the team's official site and Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirerreport.

With the team having just concluded joint practices with the Colts, the Bengals are inclined to rest key players in their exhibition finale. Burrow's next start is thus slated for Sunday, Sept. 8 against the Patriots, with the biggest looming question -- in terms of Cincinnati's offense -- ahead of that contest being the status of top wideout Ja'Marr Chase, whose contract situation remains unresolved.

During Buffalo's press conference Thursday, head coach Sean McDermott did not rule out Trubisky (knee) for the Bills' regular-season opener against the Cardinals on Sept. 8, Alec White of the team's official site reports.

Trubisky injured his knee in Saturday's preseason game against the Steelers. Initial reports indicated that the injury would sideline the 2017 first-round quarterback for multiple weeks, but McDermott seemed to indicate Thursday that Trubisky has a chance at suiting up for Week 1. If not, Ben DiNucci -- who Buffalo signed on Aug. 12 after Shane Buechele landed on IR with a neck injury -- would serve as the backup quarterback behind Josh Allen to start the season, while Anthony Brown would fill in as the emergency QB.

Coach Mike Macdonald relayed Thursday that most of Seattle's starters, including Smith, are in line to play in the team's preseason finale against the Browns on Saturday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle and Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune report.

Smith didn't see action in either of the Seahawks' first two exhibition contests, but he's slated to get some work in this weekend, along with the team's other healthy starters on offense. Once Smith gives way to his backups Saturday, his focus will turn to a Week 1 matchup against the Broncos.

Coach Kevin O'Connell relayed Thursday that that Darnold's teammate Jaren Hall will start Saturday's preseason finale against the Eagles.

O'Connell added that Matt Corral is likely to see snaps after Hall on Saturday, with Darnold's next start thus slated to occur Week 1 against the Giants on Sunday, Sept. 8. The veteran QB is slated to open the regular season as Minnesota's top signal-caller, with first-round rookie J.J. McCarthy having landed on IR last week due to a knee injury.

Coach Kevin O'Connell noted Thursday that Hall will start Saturday's preseason finale against the Eagles.

Without naming specific players, O'Connell implied that a number of regulars are in line to be rested Saturday, while adding that Matt Corral is likely to see snaps after Hall. With that in mind, we wouldn't expect to see starter Sam Darnold face Philadelphia.

Watson (arm) practiced fully Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Watson's full participation arrives a day after he was limited with soreness in his surgically-repaired throwing shoulder Wednesday. Though Watson worked without restrictions Thursday, it remains to be seen if the QB will see his first preseason action Saturday against the Seahawks.
