Tennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph completed 10 of 17 passes for 126 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Saturday's preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. On an unfortunate note, Rudolph lost a fumble on his final play of the day. The veteran is believed to be competing with Malik Willis for the backup role in Tennessee where he would operate behind Will Levis. Rudolph had an impressive surge near the end of last season in Pittsburgh, but he's off the fantasy radar in 2024 given his depth role with the Titans.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard rushed four times for 35 yards during Saturday's preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. He also hauled in both of his targets for an additional 11 yards through the air. Ultimately, Pollard finished as the Titans' most productive running back despite registering just a few carries. Saturday's preseason matchup doesn't compare to the opponents he'll face in the regular season, but this was a promising sign nonetheless. Pollard is a firm RB2 option heading into the 2024 fantasy football season.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis completed five of seven passes for 38 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Saturday's preseason win over the San Francisco 49ers. In addition to his modest passing stats, Willis had a truly impressive performance on the ground, adding four carries for 42 rushing yards. All eyes are on Willis this preseason as he remains on the roster bubble and competes with veteran Mason Rudolph for the backup quarterback job behind Will Levis. Now 25, Willis has earned opportunities in each of the last two seasons but isn't a viable fantasy option.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston drew the start under center in his team's 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers in the preseason opener on Saturday. Winston was in for only the team's first offensive possession of the game, completing four of his five passes for 30 yards and leading the team to a Cade York field goal. Winston departed after that, giving way to veteran Tyler Huntley. The veteran signal-caller is the favorite to open the year as Cleveland's backup quarterback behind Deshaun Watson.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford saw limited action in his team's 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers in the preseason opener on Saturday. Ford played on just the team's first offensive drive, carrying the ball twice for four yards before calling it a day. With Nick Chubb's status for Week 1 in question, Ford could be slated for a prominent role in the Cleveland offense, especially in the early going, making him a decent value for fantasy managers who wait on the running back position in drafts.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jamari Thrash made an impressive pro debut in his team's 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers in their preseason opener on Saturday. Thrash led the Browns in receiving, catching three of his five targets for 43 yards in the contest. He caught all of his passes from second-year QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson and ripped off a long reception of 22 yards. The Browns used a fifth-round pick in the 2024 draft to select Thrash. While he made a solid debut, he still has a long climb up the depth chart to reach fantasy relevance.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson looked sharp in his team's 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers in their preseason opener on Saturday. Thompson-Robinson completed 14 of his 18 passes for 134 yards while adding two yards on his lone rushing attempt. The second-year signal caller led the team's lone touchdown-scoring drive in the fourth quarter, which culminated in an Aidan Robbins touchdown run. With Jameis Winston expected to serve as the team's backup QB behind Deshaun Watson this season, Thompson-Robinson is looking to beat out Tyler Huntley in the preseason to serve as the QB3 in Cleveland.

Tennessee Titans running back Julius Chestnut rushed five times for nine yards during Saturday's preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. However, the bulk of his production came in the passing game where he hauled in two of three targets for a total of 37 yards through the air. His best play was a 36-yard pick-up on a short pass from Mason Rudolph in the second quarter. Chestnut has just 12 touches in nine games over the last two years, potentially putting him on the roster bubble ahead of what would be his age-23 season. Regardless of whether he makes the team, Chestnut should be avoided in all fantasy leagues.

From RotoBaller

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kyle Philips hauled in all three of his targets for a total of 18 yards during Saturday's preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. Philips had generated plenty of buzz prior to his rookie campaign in 2022, but injuries have held him to just 13 games, 23 catches, and 259 receiving yards since then. Even after his solid showing in Week 1 of the preseason, he is buried behind players like Calvin Ridley, Tyler Boyd, DeAndre Hopkins, and Treylon Burks on the Titans' depth chart. As a result, Philips remains off the fantasy radar in all formats.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown (shoulder) left Saturday night's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after catching his only target for 11 yards. Patrick Mahomes rolled right and fired a frozen rope at Brown that he successfully converted for a first down, but Brown got up and immediately signaled to his sideline before trotting off the field. It appeared that he landed on his shoulder as he was driven to the ground, and Kansas City designated him as questionable to return. The Chiefs' starters were only slated to play the opening frame regardless, but as of now -- there has been no further update on the veteran wide receiver. This remains a situation to monitor. Brown is the WR32 in Yahoo! ADP and the first Chiefs wideout off the board.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Curtis Samuel made his team debut in Saturday afternoon's preseason loss to the visiting Chicago Bears in Orchard Park, grabbing both of his two passes for 23 yards in the defeat. To jump-start Buffalo's 18-play scoring drive in the first half, quarterback Josh Allen connected with Samuel for 15 yards on a screen pass to the right. Although Samuel registered a measly 9.9 yards per reception over 62 catches with the Washington Commanders a year ago, he's set to operate as one of the Bills' regulars in three-receiver sets along with rookie second-rounder Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir in 2024. The 28-year-old veteran wideout is going to need an uptick in volume if he wants to work his way onto the weekly WR4/flex radar this fall, considering it's rather unlikely he'll make a significant number of splashy plays, but Samuel should also get some work on the ground to furnish a high floor in fantasy.

Buffalo Bills running back Frank Gore Jr. showed some juice in Saturday afternoon's preseason loss to the visiting Chicago Bears in Orchard Park, carrying the ball a team-high seven times for 21 yards and catching three of his four targets for 16 yards in the defeat. Gore posted a long run of 12 yards on the day. The 22-year-old Southern Mississippi standout went undrafted in the 2024 NFL Draft with uninspiring workout metrics, and like his father before him, Gore will likely need to overcome a lack of explosiveness to make an impact at the next level. He's currently the No. 5 back on Buffalo's RB depth chart, but Saturday's performance against the Bears at least prevented Gore's stock from dropping even further. If he has any chance of making the Bills' roster over journeyman Darrynton Evans and veteran Ty Johnson, he'll need to stand out more in next Saturday's preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir led the way with a team-high 28 receiving yards in Saturday afternoon's preseason loss to the visiting Chicago Bears at Highmark Stadium, bringing in each of his three passes in the defeat. On a fourth down early in the second quarter, he had a 19-yard gain to keep an eventual scoring drive alive. Shakir is staring a massive opportunity approaching his third year with the Bills, with top targets Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis now being off the roster. The 24-year-old slot receiver fell almost entirely under the radar throughout most of 2023, but he quietly led the entire NFL with 13.6 yards per target among qualifying wideouts over his 45 regular-season targets. He'll be working alongside newcomer Curtis Samuel, who spent the majority of his time in the slot last season, but Shakir has demonstrated a clear rapport with quarterback Josh Allen. Treat him as a WR4 with WR3 upside in 12-team fantasy drafts.

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis had an uneventful day in Saturday afternoon's preseason loss to the visiting Chicago Bears at Highmark Stadium, rushing five times for a mere two yards in the defeat. However, he did come down with three of his four targets for 19 yards. Davis was drafted by the Bills in the fourth round of this past spring's NFL Draft to provide a change of pace behind starter James Cook in Buffalo's backfield, but he was outproduced on the ground by both the undrafted Frank Gore Jr. as well as journeyman Darrynton Evans on Saturday afternoon against Chicago. Standing at 5-foot-7 with a 218-pound frame, Davis has the ability to catch passes, as evidenced by his 11.0% target share over his four-year college career, and handle goal-line work after finding the end zone 20 times at Kentucky in 2023. He'll look to be more productive in next Saturday's preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels looked sharp in his lone possession in his first professional game on Saturday afternoon. The number-two overall pick in this year's draft got things started with a 42-yard pass to wide receiver Dyami Brown on their first third down to move the Commanders into opposing territory. He then completed a short pass to Terry McLaurin for three yards before letting his two running backs, Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler, bring the Commanders into the red zone. The former LSU Tiger then capped the drive off by taking the ball into the end zone himself on a three-yard rush. This was a great debut for the reigning Heisman winner, as he was able to show off both his legs and his arm as well. Last season at LSU, the 23-year-old threw for 3,812 yards while tallying 1,134 on the ground. Daniels is a great upside pick with a current Yahoo ADP of 109.8, given his elite rushing ability.

Washington Commanders kicker Ramiz Ahmed went 1-for-1 on his field goal attempts and 2-for-2 on his extra-point attempts on Saturday afternoon. His field goal attempt came from 40 yards out. This is important to note because Riley Patterson missed his lone field goal try from 39 yards out. Brandon McManus was originally brought in during free agency to serve as the starting kicker in D.C. but was let go in June due to being involved with a civil lawsuit. As a result, this opened up a competition between Ahmed and Patterson, and after the team's first preseason game, Ahmed may be in the lead. Patterson does have more experience in the NFL and has gone 59-for-67 throughout the first four seasons of his career. Ahmed made only one NFL appearance back in 2022 with the Green Bay Packers and moved on to play for the Birmingham Stallions in the UFL last spring. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor this competition as the winner could be fantasy-relevant, especially if rookie Jayden Daniels is able to adjust to the NFL fairly quickly and move the Washington offense downfield on a consistent basis.

Washington Commanders running back Michael Wiley led the team in rushing yards and attempts with 34 on eight carries. He also caught his one target for five yards and punched in a score at the goal line. The undrafted rookie entered the game to start the second half and remained a key part of the offense towards the back half of the game. His touchdown late in the fourth quarter put the Commanders ahead, but they were unable to hold on to the lead. Wiley totaled 311 yards on the ground and 306 through the air in his final season at Arizona this past fall. Currently, Wiley slots in behind Chris Rodriguez Jr. and Jeremy McNichols on the depth chart but could push to serve as a depth option in the backfield, as both Rodriguez and McNichols combined for 10 rushing yards on nine carries on Saturday.

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott led the team in receiving yards with 57 and receptions with three on Saturday afternoon. Sinnott made his first professional catch in the first quarter off a one-yard pass from Jeff Driskel. In the second quarter, Driskel hit him on his longest reception of the day for 44 yards. Later in the second half, he made his final reception for 12 yards from Sam Hartman. This was a great sign for the former second-round pick, as he looked quite comfortable in his first NFL game. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression through the remainder of the preseason, as he could become a consistent option in the offense. For now, veteran Zach Ertz should be viewed as the starter, but Sinnott could be worth a flier late in drafts if he continues to produce in the preseason.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown led all Washington wideouts on Saturday afternoon as he totaled 55 yards on two receptions. His first catch came on the opening drive off a great contested 42-yard pass from rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. Later in the game, the former North Carolina product caught his other pass from Jeff Driskel for 13 yards in the second quarter. This was a great opening game for Brown as he struggled last season, holding a disappointing 52.2% catch rate, which placed him in the 17th percentile among all receivers. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor how Brown plays in the preseason, as he could claim the third spot in the wide receiver room that is open with Curtis Samuel now in Buffalo. If Brown continues to play well, especially with the First-team, he should be in the driver's seat to see consistent playing time in the fall.

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) won't suit up for Saturday's preseason opener. The 49ers will be without Mitchell, Christian McCaffrey (calf), and Isaac Guerendo (hamstring) for Saturday's contest. Undrafted rookie Cody Schrader and veteran Matt Breida are likely to see increased touches with the 49ers limited on players. These injuries aren't expected to linger into the regular season.
