Caleb Williams was the most efficient quarterback of the preseason in EPA (expected points added) per dropback.

J.J. McCarthy and Bo Nix took strides toward getting starting spots.

Drake Maye was the straggler, because he threw only three passes.

The Vikings seem committed to starting QB Sam Darnold in Week 1 .

Rookie Jaylen Wright had 55 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries for the Dolphins.

Brock Bowers lined up in a normal tight end spot four times, twice out wide (and caught a pass on a nice slant route) The Raiders showed they're going to use a lot of two tight end sets and Bowers is going to line up just about anywhere.
