• Bagent played the entire second half of the preseason finale, going 20-of-28 for 212 yards and throwing the last-second winner in a 29-27 comeback over the Chiefs.
• Caleb Williams finished the first half in Kansas City 11-of-15 for 113 yards and a touchdown with a 116.8 rating, drawing praise from coach Ben Johnson for a crisp two-minute drive.
