Overview

• Rookies tight end Colston Loveland and wide receiver Luther Burden III looked comfortable in their first live action, making key receptions and demonstrating rapid acclimation.
• Backup quarterbacks Tyson Bagent (13-for-19, 103 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT) and Case Keenum (8-for-10, 80 yards, 2 TDs) earned high marks from Johnson for managing drives efficiently.
• Defensive end Austin Booker tallied three sacks and four quarterback hits while linebacker Noah Sewell forced a fumble and delivered a fourth-down red-zone stop.
• Competition for the starting left tackle role remains unsettled after snaps by Braxton Jones, rookie Ozzy Trapilo and Theo Benedet failed to yield a clear leader.
• Injuries to Amen Ogbongbemiga (shoulder), Travis Homer (calf), Major Burns (knee) and Luke Newman (concussion protocol) add urgency to upcoming evaluations before facing the Bills
