Three Key Roster Calls From Packers’ Preseason Win Over Cardinals

The Packers’ 42-38 win over Arizona was about roster decisions, not the score: snap counts showed who’s in the mix, J. Michael Sturdivant’s standout performance could push Green Bay to carry seven receivers, and Kyle McCord’s strong showing kept the door open for a three-QB quarterback room, with Tyrod Taylor likely to start the season as the backup and McCord possibly ending up on the practice squad unless a miracle waiver move changes the plan.

Seahawks-Titans joint practice yields a mix of progress and questions

Seattle and Tennessee staged a joint practice in Nashville that produced a mix of positives and teachable moments: the Titans staged a red-zone/2-minute emphasis and had some success, while Seattle’s defense earned sacks and a Ty Okada pick-6. coach Mike Macdonald called it a productive day with room to improve, and multiple players on both sides stood out as factors to watch in upcoming preseason games, though Jake Bobo’s long-term injury is a noted concern and others stepped up at receiver and in the backfield.

Smack’s Long-Range Kicking Sparks Packers to 33-13 Preseason Win Over Broncos

Green Bay defeated Denver 33-13 in a preseason game, led by kicker Trey Smack’s long-range accuracy (multiple 50+ yarders) and strong work from the Packers’ reserves: Will Sheppard had six receptions for 47 yards with a TD, Jaden Nixon scored on a short TD drive, and Kyle McCord moved the backup offense effectively (6-of-11 for 69 yards) as Green Bay’s defense also made key plays.

Jaxson Dart puzzled by frequent blue tent visits after hit

In the Giants’ preseason opener against the Vikings, Jaxson Dart was sent to the blue medical tent after a hard hit, returned to throw a touchdown on the next play, and afterward said he’s puzzled by how often he ends up in the tent. The NFL concussion protocol and required medical checks mean such visits are common, and Dart acknowledged the experience but hinted there’s little he can do to avoid it. The episode echoes past league scrutiny of medical evaluations but doesn’t suggest targeting—it's likely routine procedure with closer monitoring to come.

Cardinals optimistic on Carson Beck as he shows progress behind Brissett

Arizona's rookie Carson Beck impressed in his preseason debut with strong pre-snap work, blitz recognition and smart decision-making, fueling optimism that he could become an NFL starter someday. For now, Jacoby Brissett remains the expected Week 1 QB after signing a one-year, $15.5 million deal, with Gardner Minshew as depth; Beck’s continued progress in OTAs, camp and the preseason is keeping the buzz alive around his long-term potential.
