Perry signed a contract with the Jaguars on Wednesday.

Perry's addition comes as C.J. Beathard is sidelined due to a groin injury and is not expected to play in Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons. The former has spent time in the organization as recently as last season, and should be able to provide reps in practice and is an option to suit up in Friday's game.

Wilson said Wednesday that he and other key players will play in Saturday's preseason game at Detroit, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.

The Steelers apparently will deploy their first-string offense for a third time in as many preseason games, although in Wilson's case, it'll be just his second appearance because he dealt with a calf injury in late July and early August. While Wilson is still considered the favorite to get the Week 1 start, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette suggests that the 35-year-old could split first-team reps with Justin Fields in this weekend's exhibition finale.

Cowboys owner Jerry jones said Tuesday that Lance will have a spot on the 53-man roster, Saad Yousuf of The Athletic reports.

Jones' comments aren't a big surprise with NFL teams now allowed to more easily carry three quarterbacks, but Lance is still in the running to take the No. 2 job from Cooper Rush and emerge as Dak Prescott's primary backup this season. Lance's mobility and athleticism have been on display this preseason, but he's only attempted 102 passes since being selected third overall in the 2021 NFL Draft by the 49ers. Lance's ability to read defenses and manage game situations remains a work in progress.

Head coach Dan Campbell stated Tuesday that he'd like Hooker to start Saturday against the Steelers, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Hooker is currently in a battle with Nate Sufeld for the backup quarterback job behind Jared Goff. The second-year pro was arguably the better performer in the Lions' win over the Chiefs last Saturday, completing 12 of 15 passes for 150 yards while he also rushed for a touchdown.

Coach Shane Steichen said that Colts' starters, including Richardson, will play into the second quarter of Thursday's preseason finale against the Bengals, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Richardson didn't see any action in this past Saturday's preseason game against the Cardinals, but he's in line to play a quarter or more Thursday. Once he gets his reps in versus Cincinnati, the QB's focus will then turn to preparing for a Week 1 start against the Texans on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Lock (hip) is practicing Tuesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Lock suffered a bone contusion to his hip during the team's first preseason game against the Lions on Aug. 8 and has been out of action since. However, the veteran should be ready Week 1 against the Vikings, where he's expected to be the team's No. 2 quarterback, behind starter Daniel Jones.

Coach Todd Bowles said Tuesday that Mayfield and other healthy starters will take the field for Friday's preseason finale against the Dolphins, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Mayfield said he doesn't expect to play much Friday, so though Bowles hasn't officially revealed how many series Tampa Bay's starters will play, it seems like it could be only a handful. The veteran signal-caller hasn't yet been called up for preseason action, so Friday's exhibition contest will represent a valuable chance to freshen up his chemistry with WRs Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, plus RB Rachaad White and TE Cade Otton.

Jackson isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Packers, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Banner reports.

It's no surprise that the Ravens aren't inclined to risk playing their franchise QB on Saturday, but Jackson will at least get some reps against a defense other than his own team's this week, with Baltimore and Green Bay scheduled to conduct a joint practice Thursday. As the coming campaign approaches, Jackson indicates that he's shed about 10 pounds since last season, with an eye toward increasing his agility and on-field energy level. As long as the 27-year-old can stay healthy in the coming weeks and months, he's poised to maintain his status as a top-level fantasy QB in 2024.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that the starting units will get "some snaps" during Friday's preseason finale against the Raiders, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

Purdy was on the field for only three drives during Sunday's preseason win over the Saints, in which he completed two of six pass attempts for 11 yards. It seems likely that Christian McCaffrey (calf) and Brandon Aiyuk (contract dispute) will remain sidelined Friday, but McCaffrey is still on track to suit up Week 1 versus the Jets. Star pass-catchers Deebo Samuel and George Kittle figure to represent Purdy's top receiving options Friday. With Ricky Pearsall (shoulder) still sitting out Tuesday's practice, though, it's notable that Purdy has had almost no opportunities throughout training camp to build chemistry with the rookie first-round pick.

Coach Matt Eberflus said Tuesday that Williams and the majority of starters will not suit up for Thursday's road exhibition finale against Kansas City, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Williams has flashed a handful of highlight-reel plays across two preseason showings thus far, and the Bears don't need to see any more from the 2024 first overall pick ahead of the regular season. During Saturday's game against the Bengals, Williams completed just six of 13 passes for 75 yards, including going three-and-out against a Cincinnati defense that sat a significant number of starters. He rebounded well though, leading Chicago to a field goal and then scoring a seven-yard rushing TD on his fifth and final drive. Williams will look to make the most of his regular-season debut in Week 1 against the Titans, with a star-studded cast of skill-position players at his disposal. WRs DJ Moore, Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze, RB D'Andre Swift, and TEs Cole Kmet and Gerald Everett represent a pass-catching corps capable of helping Williams make an immediate impact at the NFL level.
