Jaxson Dart will have to wait his turn in the New York Giants’ quarterback pecking order, but his first NFL preseason action revealed that he may not have to sit on the bench for long.
The first-round rookie made one big-time throw — an impressive deep shot with perfect accuracy to the endzone — and finished 12-of-19 for 154 passing yards. He added 24 yards on the ground before giving way to Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito, both of whom looked solid, too.
The well-rounded effort from the Giants’ signal-callers spurred the offense to points in bunches and a 34-25 win over the Buffalo Bills in preseason Week 1.
Bills fourth-round rookie interior defender Deone Walker starred on 15 snaps in his NFL debut. Once thought to be a first-round-caliber player, Walker dropped in the 2025 NFL Draft, but his 95.9 PFF overall grade, pending reviews, was the top mark in the game.

PLAYER OF THE GAME
Deone Walker tied with Abdul Carter and Trace Ford for the game high in quarterback pressures (three). His 27.3 pass-rush win rate was the second-best clip in the game, behind only Carter, who played just three snaps. Walker, a fourth-round pick out of Kentucky, was a pass-rushing and run-defending menace in 2023 before a less-heralded 2024 campaign, which ultimately led to his draft fall.

Kiks gólmana potopil Teplice. Čeká nás spousta práce, hlesl kouč
„Samozřejmě je to zklamání, nepochopení některých věcí, měli jsme blízko vítězství, ale srazila nás individuální chyba, sahali jsme po třech bodech,“ hlesl zklamaný kouč Teplic Zdenko Frťala, jehož svěřenci dlouho vedli po trefě Trubače z 22. minuty. Hlavou mu logicky šrotoval Trmalův kiks, který už nastal poté, co Teplice dohrávaly v deseti. V 79. minutě totiž po druhé žluté kartě putoval pod sprchy záložník Matěj Radosta. „Dostali jsme branku a potom jsme se mohli dostat do vedení, ale nevyužili jsme brejk na vstřelení gólu, to jsou klíčové momenty, čeká nás spousta práce,“ podotkl teplický kouč.Jeho protějšek Jan Kameník naopak kvitoval vzepjetí svého týmu ve druhé půli.

How Tijjani Reijnders made an instant impact at Man City and might ease the blow of losing Kevin de Bruyne
Getty Images When Tijjani Reijnders moved to Manchester City this summer, he probably couldn't have thought of a better Premier League debut than the one he had against Wolverhampton on Saturday, scoring a goal and grabbing an assist. The team coached by Pep Guardiola won 4-0 in their opening league match, with two goals scored by Erling Haaland and one each by Rayan Cherki and another new signing, the talented Dutch international, Reijnders. If you've followed Serie A and AC Milan over the last seasons, you shouldn't be surprised to see him scoring in his debut match with Manchester City in the Premier League, but what can we expect from him this season under Guardiola? Who is Tijjani Reijnders?The Dutch midfielder joined ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup from AC Milan for around $75 million, marking one of the […]

NASCAR at Richmond predictions, lines, odds: 2025 Cook Out 400 picks by model that called 27 winners
After a win last week at Watkins Glen, Shane van Gisbergen joins Denny Hamlin as the only two drivers this season with four wins in the NASCAR Cup Series. However, van Gisbergen won't see another road course (where he's collected all his wins) until the Round of 12 in the 2025 NASCAR playoffs and Hamlin will enter the 2025 Cook Out 400 on Saturday as a five-time winner at Richmond Raceway. Hamlin is the +230 favorite in the 2025 Cook Out 400 odds while van Gisbergen is a +30000 longshot. Hamlin's teammate Christopher Bell is listed at +550 in the NASCAR at Richmond odds while current points leader William Byron is listed at +1400. Ryan Preece will start from the pole position and he's listed at +1300 in the latest NASCAR odds. The green flag will drop at 7:30 p.m. ET […]
NFL Preseason Week 2 Game Recap: Miami Dolphins 24, Detroit Lions 17
Detroit Lions quarterback Kyle Allen pump-faked to his left and then fired. Miami Dolphins cornerback Cornell Armstrong was all over it, draping Allen's intended receiver, rookie Isaac TeSlaa. TeSlaa couldn't have cared less. He rose up and brushed off Armstrong with a veteran-like savvy. For the second straight week, the third-rounder brought down an end-zone shot. Detroit's decision to trade two future third-round picks to move up and draft TeSlaa is looking smarter by the day. Although TeSlaa thrived once again, the Dolphins scored 10 unanswered points to close out a 24-17 victory in Week 2 of the 2025 NFL preseason. Rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers powered the comeback. After a lackluster appearance last week, he bounced back with two touchdown passes and a burgeoning connection with fellow rookie Theo Wease Jr., who was on the end of both scores. PFF's […]
