Lane caught one pass on two targets for nine yards during the Ravens' 13-3 preseason win over the Vikings on Saturday.

Quarterback Tyler Huntley missed Lane on a deep pass late in the first quarter, but the duo connected on a nine-yard catch early in the second frame, which led to a 49-yard field goal by Tyler Loop two plays later. Lane has been one of the Ravens' standout players in training camp, and the rookie third-rounder flashed that potential in Baltimore's preseason opener against Philadelphia, when he caught three passes on as many targets for 38 yards and a score. Lane could work his way up to the WR2 role behind Zay Flowers with a strong finish to training camp, considering Rashod Bateman is facing charges stemming from a domestic incident in June.

Gilman has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's preseason game against the Buccaneers due to a back injury.

Gilman may have picked up the injury during pregame warmups, which will prevent him from suiting up for Saturday's exhibition contest. He'll undergo more tests to determine the severity of the injury, but it could prevent him from playing in the Chiefs' preseason finale against the Seahawks this Friday. Xavier Nwankpa and Jaden Hicks will start at safety in Gilman's absence, with Christian Roland-Wallace sliding in as the slot corner.

Simpson completed eight of 12 passes for 73 yards and added three carries for 10 yards during the Rams' 34-0 preseason win over the Saints on Saturday.

Matthew Stafford and most of the Rams' starters were sidelined for Saturday's exhibition contest. As was the case in the preseason opener against the Kansas City, Stetson Bennett served as the starter against New Orleans, and he played well under center before turning the keys over to Simpson midway through the third quarter. Simpson couldn't replicate the production he had against the Chiefs, but he managed to lead an 11-play, 66-yard scoring drive in the fourth quarter that ended with an 12-yard rushing touchdown by Jarquez Hunter. It appears as though Simpson is securely slated as the Rams' QB3 behind Stafford and Bennett heading into the regular season. The Rams wrap up their preseason slate Thursday against the Chargers.

Coleman (undisclosed) caught two of five targets for 32 yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason loss to the Giants.

Coleman had previously dealt with an undisclosed injury that caused him to miss some practice time, but the rookie fifth-round pick suited up Saturday and paced the team in targets and receiving yards. The Dolphins rested their starters and got an ugly passing performance out of the backups, as Coleman was the only player on the team to exceed 12 receiving yards in the game. Coleman seems to be running well behind rookie third-round pick Caleb Douglas, as well as the more experienced Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert and Tutu Atwell. Fellow rookie WR Chris Bell (knee) could also factor into the mix whenever he's cleared for game action.

Johnson caught his only target for 12 yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason win over the Dolphins.

Johnson is expected to work as the Giants' No. 2 TE in 2026 behind offseason addition Isaiah Likely, who previously played under new Giants head coach John Harbaugh in Baltimore. As the team's top option at the position in 2025, Johnson caught 45 of 74 targets for 528 yards and five TDs. Likely's career high in any regular season is only 477 receiving yards, though he was stuck behind Mark Andrews during his stint with the Ravens.

Bryant has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's preseason game against the Eagles due to an ankle injury, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Bryant sustained the injury on the Patriots' first offensive drive of the game. He had to be helped off the field by trainers before going to the locker room, where he'll undergo more tests to determine the severity of his injury. Dametrious Crownover has taken over at right tackle for Bryant.

Slayton caught four of six targets for 58 yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason win over the Dolphins.

Slayton paced the team in receiving yards Saturday, showing a nice rapport with backup QB Jameis Winston. Winston connected with Slayton on his first two passes of the game, picking up gains of six and 29 yards. Starting QB Jaxson Dart was rested Saturday and WR Malik Nabers (knee) has yet to be cleared for game action. Slayton is trying to hold off newcomers Calvin Austin, Darnell Mooney, Malachi Fields and Odell Beckham for a starting spot once Nabers returns to claim one of the starting roles on the outside.

Jackson (undisclosed) was carted off the field during the first quarter of Saturday's preseason game against the Patriots, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Jackson sustained the injury while making a tackle on the game's opening kickoff. He was carted off the field and has since been transported to a local hospital. The good news for the Arkansas product is that he demonstrated strength and movement in all extremities.

Tracy rushed six times for 26 yards, caught all three of his targets for 22 yards and lost a fumble in Saturday's 26-3 preseason win over the Dolphins.

Tracy split carries with Devin Singletary in the first half while Cam Skattebo and the newly signed Najee Harris didn't see any action. For the second time in as many preseason games, Tracy made a key mistake. After whiffing on a pass block in the preseason opener, Tracy fumbled in the red zone Saturday. Tracy averaged a solid 4.3 yards per carry and 7.7 yards per catch through his first two NFL seasons, so while the 2024 fifth-round pick could still be a key part of the Giants' backfield plans in 2026, he needs to clean up the errors to avoid landing in head coach John Harbaugh's doghouse.

Singletary rushed eight times for 40 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for four yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason win over the Dolphins.

Singletary was the first running back into the game for the Giants, as neither the presumed regular-season starter Cam Skattebo or the recently signed Najee Harris saw any utilization. Singletary and Tyrone Tracy alternated work throughout the first half, and the former put forth the better performance. The highlight of Singletary's afternoon was a 13-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter, while Tracy fumbled in the red zone in the first quarter. After rushing for exactly 437 yards in each of his previous two seasons with the Giants, Singletary is looking to secure a role in a crowded backfield, and he helped his case with Saturday's strong outing.
