McMillan caught two of five targets for a game-high 43 yards in Friday's 30-10 preseason loss to the Browns.

The eighth overall pick in the 2025 Draft got the start and played the entire first half, but all his production came in the first quarter with Bryce Young under center. The duo connected on a deep shot down the sideline for a 30-yard gain to launch Carolina's second drive of the game, as McMillan beat his man on a jump ball, and he added a 13-yard catch later in the possession for a first down. Young then looked his way in the end zone, but the rookie wideout dropped a sure TD to put a blemish on what was otherwise an impressive introduction to NFL game action. McMillan's two later incompletions came with Andy Dalton under center. Young could be poised for a Year 3 breakout, and McMillan already appears locked in as his top target, setting him up for potentially high volume in the Panthers' passing game.

Davis caught all three of his targets for 23 yards and two touchdowns in Friday's 30-10 preseason win over the Panthers. He also lost two yards on his only carry and added 31 return yards.

An undrafted free agent back in 2022, Davis made his NFL debut last season in Week 18 with the Browns and made a positive impression on special teams with 107 return yards. The 26-year-old did more than that Friday, rising to the occasion as a red-zone target for Shedeur Sanders and hauling in TDs of seven and 12 yards in the second quarter. Davis is still likely on the outside looking in for a Week 1 roster spot, especially with DeAndre Carter on the squad, but if he keeps stacking strong performances, he could make the veteran return man expendable.

Johnson failed to catch either of his targets during Friday's 30-10 preseason win over the Panthers.

The veteran wideout got the start but wasn't on the field for long and failed to connect with Shedeur Sanders during the Browns' first two drives of the night. Johnson's main competition for the No. 3 receiver role, Jamari Thrash, also only saw two targets but showed more chemistry with Sanders by hauling both of them in, albeit for only nine yards. Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman are locked into the top two spots on the wideout depth chart, and the 29-year-old Johnson is coming off an awful 2024 campaign which saw him bounce through three different organizations without making much impact. He'll need to do more with his opportunities if he's going to get his career back on track.

McCaffrey left Friday's 48-18 preseason loss against the Patriots due to an illness, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

McCaffrey tried to play through the illness and caught his only target for minus-1 yard but ultimately couldn't keep going. The Commanders' next exhibition game isn't until Monday, Aug. 18 against the Bengals, so McCaffrey will have additional time to recover. The 2024 third-rounder is battling for a bigger role in Washington's offense after finishing his rookie season with 18 catches (on 24 targets) for 168 yards across 17 regular-season games.

Williams didn't catch any of his four targets in Friday's 48-18 preseason win over the Commanders.

None of Williams' targets came from starting quarterback Drake Maye, as the rookie third-round pick is still stuck in a depth role at this point. Williams will try to bounce back in the Patriots' second preseason game, Aug. 16 against the Vikings.

TeSlaa had two receptions on three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Friday's preseason game in Atlanta.

TeSlaa followed up a strong preseason debut (2-46-0) with his first touchdown grab as a member of the Lions. The third-round rookie has built a good rapport with backup QB Kyle Allen through two exhibitions, with the duo producing 57 yards and a touchdown in less than four combined quarters of action so far. TeSlaa's size (6-foot-4, 214 pounds) and athleticism make him an intriguing prospect in a crowded Detroit receiver room. The rookie will look to continue impressing his coaching staff when the Lions host the Dolphins on Saturday, Aug. 16.

Larvadain is being evaluated for an apparent lower-body injury during Friday's preseason game against the Panthers, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Larvadain recorded two catches for 23 yards before being forced to the sidelines. There is little known about the potential injury at this point.

Polk went to the locker room during Friday's preseason game against the Commanders after injuring his arm/shoulder and did not return, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Polk appeared to suffer the injury on a running play late in the second quarter and was taken to the locker room after being attended to in the blue medical tent. Polk did not return to Friday's game, and further tests will determine the severity of the injury and his ability to practice ahead of the Patriots' second preseason game against the Vikings on Saturday, Aug. 16.

Floriea left Friday's preseason game with the Panthers due to a hamstring injury, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Floriea made a nice one-handed catch in the second quarter down the right sideline, but he appeared to suffer the injury on that play. The Browns also used him as a returner for both punts and kickoffs. Nothing is settled in the receiving corps beyond the top two, and the next few weeks are critical for Floriea's bid for a roster spot. Any missed time will be detrimental.

Olave did not participate in Friday's training camp practice after injuring his ankle during Thursday's session, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Olave was able to finish Thursday's practice after getting his ankle taped, and the injury is considered day-to-day, per Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. It could prevent Olave from playing in Sunday's preseason game against the Chargers, which would open the door for Bub Means and Cedrick Wilson to work with Rashid Shaheed and Brandin Cooks in three-wideout sets.
