  • Jake Bobo WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Placed on injured reserve

    The Seahawks placed Bobo (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

    Bobo sustained a serious knee injury in Friday's joint practice with the Titans. The wide receiver's placement on injured reserve means he will be unable to participate for the Seahawks in the entirety of the 2026 season. With Bobo out of the picture, Tory Horton (undisclosed), Emmanuel Henderson, Montorie Foster and Cody White will have a close competition for starting roles during the remainder of the preseason. The Seahawks also signed wide receiver Julian Hicks in a corresponding move.

  • Kaleb Johnson RB | PIT

    Steelers' Kaleb Johnson: Tallies 54 yards in preseason loss

    Johnson turned 10 carries into 39 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards during the Steelers' 17-0 preseason loss to the Jets on Friday.

    Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle served as the Steelers' one-two punch out of the backfield in the first quarter, with Johnson getting his first touch in the second frame. Johnson ended up playing 24 snaps on offense and led all Steelers running backs in touches and yards. The 2025 third-rounder is currently slated as the RB3 behind Warren and Dowdle on the depth chart, but Johnson's spot on the Steelers' 53-man roster for the regular season is far from guaranteed. Pittsburgh wraps up its preseason Thursday against Buffalo.

  • Drew Allar QB | PIT

    Steelers' Drew Allar: Plays second half of preseason loss

    Allar completed 11 of 23 passes for 110 yards and turned one carry into four yards during the Steelers' 17-0 preseason loss to the Jets on Friday.

    Both Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph sat out of Friday's exhibition contest, leaving Will Howard and Allar to command the Steelers offense. Howard drew the start and played the entire first half but tossed two interceptions in the second quarter. Allar took over for the start of the second half, but he wasn't that much better, going three-and-out on three of seven series while taking three sacks. It looks like Rudolph will be the Steelers' backup QB to Rodgers for the 2026 campaign, so Thursday's preseason finale against the Bills could determine whom between Howard and Allar will be the QB3 on the 53-man roster and who will open the regular season on the practice squad.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: DNP on Friday

    Boswell did not participate in Friday night's 17-0 preseason loss to the Jets.

    Undrafted rookie Laith Marjan was given a chance to prove himself Friday night while Boswell rested. Marjan had an uneventful night, attempting only one kick. The rookie missed a 44-yard field goal wide left, not providing much tape to push Boswell to compete. Boswell signed a four-year extension in May after converting 27 of 32 field-goal attempts in 2025.

  • Cade York K | NYJ

    Jets' Cade York: Misses in first half

    York missed his sole field-goal attempt, but converted a PAT in Friday night's preseason game against the Steelers.

    York missed from 59 yards in the second quarter, ending his night. Jason Sanders took over in the second half, making a 39-yard field goal and finishing the game with a PAT in the fourth quarter. York was called upon for the harder kick, but the failure likely still dings the kicker compared to Sanders' perfect night.

  • Cade Klubnik QB | NYJ

    Jets' Cade Klubnik: Follows Smith in Friday's preseason win

    Klubnik completed 10 of 14 passes for 75 yards and recorded a 16-yard carry during the Jets' 17-0 preseason win over the Steelers on Friday.

    Geno Smith commanded the Jets on the first offensive series and led a 10-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Jelani Woods. Klubnik took over on the second series and ended up playing more snaps than he did in the Jets' preseason opener against the Buccaneers. However, he could not lead the offense on any scoring drives, and part of the issue for the rookie fourth-rounder was that he was playing with the second-team offensive line. Klubnik appears to be ahead of both Brady Cook and Bailey Zappe for the backup QB job behind Geno Smith heading into the Jets' preseason finale against the Giants next Friday.

  • Jets' Jason Sanders: Perfect in win

    Sanders converted his sole field-goal attempt and only PAT in Friday night's preseason game against the Steelers.

    Sanders contributed four of the Jets' 17 points, making his 39-yard field goal in the fourth quarter. Cade York initially started the game for the Jets, missing a field goal in the second quarter. Sanders' performance likely further increased his chances of securing the starting role for the 2026 regular season.

  • Isaiah Davis RB | NYJ

    Jets' Isaiah Davis: Doesn't play vs. Pittsburgh

    Davis (knee) did not play in the Jets' 17-0 preseason win over the Steelers on Friday.

    Davis has missed the Jets' first two preseason games due to a knee injury he sustained in training camp practice in early August. He's trending on the doubtful side of suiting up for the Jets' preseason finale against the Giants next Friday, but he could be available for the regular-season opener against the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 13. With Breece Hall (groin) also sidelined, Braelon Allen will serve as the Jets' top running back in practices, with Kene Nwangwu, Chip Trayanum and Sam Scott all in line for additional reps.

  • Khalil Shakir WR | BUF

    Bills' Khalil Shakir: Won't play Saturday

    Shakir (undisclosed) won't play in Saturday's preseason game against Cleveland, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Shakir will join DJ Moore, Keon Coleman (foot/toe), Joshua Palmer and Skyler Bell (lower body) on the sidelines for Saturday's exhibition contest. Shakir is currently working through an unspecified injury, and while it doesn't appear to be a severe issue, it could prevent him from playing in the Bills' preseason finale against the Steelers on Thursday.

  • Skyler Bell WR | BUF

    Bills' Skyler Bell: Won't play Saturday

    Bell (lower body) will not participate in Saturday's preseason game against the Browns, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Bell has been limited in practice due to a lower-body injury he sustained in practice before last week's preseason opener against the Panthers. The Bills made it clear the injury was very surmountable, but the team is being careful with the rookie fourth-rounder until the regular season commences.
