• Warren received an NFL Rookie of the Week nomination for Week 1, with the winner scheduled to be announced on Thursday.
• Quarterback Daniel Jones called Warren a dangerous, physical target who makes extra yards and tough catches, and coach Shane Steichen praised him as an old-school throwback baller.
