Things kicked off on Thursday night as the Kansas City Chiefs won in front of their home fans over the Green Bay Packers and the Houston Texans shut out the San Francisco 49ers. Each of the NFL’s 32 teams will handle this week differently. Some will play their chips a little, some will play their chips more, and some not at all. In fact, this week is more about the reserves as coaching staffs around the league figure out who will make their 53-man rosters. Below, we’ll break down highlights from all 16 preseason games. Bookmark this post as it will be your one stop shop for everything you need to see.

Drew Lock connects on beautiful TD pass

The Drew Lock experience is in full force. After throwing an interception on his first drive of the game, Locke earned another chance to show off his arm strength. Battling for the starting quarterback position in Seattle, Locke hit Penny Hart on a 35-yard pass. Throws don’t get much better than this week 3 of the preseason. Lock has a chance to take the job from Geno Smith, who started this game for Seattle. Coach Pete Carroll says he will name a starter after the third preseason game.

Mark Ingram gets his second TD in the first quarter

Mark Ingram is the NFL’s current leading rusher and continues to have a prominent role with the Saints, rushing for two touchdowns in the first quarter as New Orleans blew a 14-0 lead over the Los Angeles Chargers — who play the majority. of their backups. That touchdown run was from 2 yards out.

Baker Mayfield finds Shi Smith for the score

Mayfield won the starting quarterback job in Carolina and puts an exclamation point on this training camp with a 19-yard strike to Shi Smith for a touchdown. Smith has been mentioned as Mayfield’s favorite target by some of the local writers in Carolina, emerging as a candidate not only for a roster spot — but also for regular-season snaps. Mayfield has two touchdown passes in the first quarter. This might be it for him. To the surprise of some, the Texans’ starting quarterback took the field to start the second half. After a torrid first two quarters in which he threw an interception, Mills led a six-play, 77-yard drive that ended with a touchdown — a 16-yard strike to Chris Moore. This is a nice bullet pass in the middle of the field. Houston has high hopes for the second-year signal caller.

It’s the Bushman’s world, we just live in it

Matt Bushman has a big night and recorded 73 receiving yards on his first three catches. He scored his second touchdown of the game early in the third quarter on a play that looked like a turnaround waiting to happen.

A must-see interception

What at first appeared to be a great catch by the Texans turned into an interception by the 49ers in the blink of an eye. Credit to both defensive backs in this game for battling for the ball. Samuel Womack III bent it and then Tarvarius Moore somehow brought it in.

Whose man was he?!

Chiefs tight end Matt Bushman ran a simple corner route that resulted in a 54-yard touchdown. The safety wasn’t looking his way, and the cornerback thought he was giving the tight end to his teammate. This play will look bad when the Chiefs evaluate the film. The Packers got off to a slow start Thursday night — going three-and-out on their first two possessions. Things started to click on their third drive, however, as Green Bay drove 83 yards down the field in 11 plays to score the game’s first touchdown. He was the undrafted rookie out of Iowa who got into the end zone for the Packers. Check out this EXPLOSIVE run by Tyler Goodson covered in the spin move.

Texans’ Dameon Pierce continues hot start

Houston’s rookie running back has been one of the stars of the preseason. After an impressive Week 1 outing, Pierce did not play last weekend. Texans coach Lovie Smith said he kept Pierce out because he was seen a lot in the first preseason game, according to the Pro Football Network, which could mean he’s an RB1. Pierce did play Thursday night, though, and on the Texans’ opening drive, he rushed six times for 37 yards as Houston drove 85 yards down the field in 11 plays and scored a touchdown. Who scored for the Texans? I’ll give you a guess.

‘Choir huddle’ honors Len Dawson

Earlier this week, legendary Hall of Fame quarterback Len Dawson passed away at the age of 87. The former No. 5 overall pick was a Super Bowl champion, Super Bowl MVP, NFL Man of the Year and Chiefs legend. To open the Chiefs’ Thursday night preseason game, Patrick Mahomes took the field and lined up his offense in the famous “chorus” to honor Dawson. After the delay of game penalty, which was dismissed by the Packers, Mahomes walked off the field.
