The second week of NFL preseason action is in full swing, and there are plenty of storylines to follow.
We got our first glimpse of second-year Bears QB Caleb Williams under new head coach Ben Johnson. And it was a sight to behold on Sunday night, as Williams immediately led the Bears to a 92-yard scoring drive capped by a 36-yard touchdown pass against the Bills. He finished 6 of 10 for 107 yards and a touchdown in two drives, and that was likely plenty to get Bears fans everywhere excited about their new-and-improved offense. The Bears then rolled to a dominant 38-0 blowout win.

Earlier Sunday, rookie Tyler Shough got the start for the Saints as he competes with Spencer Rattler for QB1 in New Orleans. He played the entire first half against the Jaguars and had a fairly uneventful outing, completed 9 of 12 passes for 66 yards. Rattler played the entire second half and went 18 of 24 for 199 yards, a TD and an interception while rallying the Saints to a 17-17 tie.

On Saturday, Giants rookie Jaxson Dart put up another impressive preseason performance coming off his gem last week against the Bills. On Saturday against the Jets, he completed 14 of 16 passes for 137 yards and a touchdown to go along with a TD run. Could starting QB Russell Wilson be hearing footsteps?
Rookie Dillon Gabriel saw his first action of preseason Saturday, and it was an up-and-down day for the third-round pick. He finished 13-of-18 for 143 yards passing but also turned it over twice. He thew a pick 6 and also lost a fumble on a botched handoff exchange. He was otherwise solid and in control in the passing game. Fellow rookie QB Shedeur Sanders sat out due to an oblique injury.

Elsewhere in the QB world, the Colts battle for the starting job continues to heat up, with Daniel Jones ending up 7 of 11 passes for 101 yards while Anthony Richardson competed 6 of 11 passes for 73 yards. Those two appear to be neck-and-neck for the starting job, and head coach Shane Steichen told reporters he plans to decide the starter “very soon.”
