Undrafted rookie Stephen Dix Jr. stunned the Miami Dolphins by signing just one day before his preseason debut, playing 36 snaps, making a tackle, and calling plays—already earning rave reviews. Meanwhile, Joey Aguilar dazzled for Jacksonville with nine-of-ten passing accuracy, 130 yards, and a TD, proving he’s a rising developmental gem. On the flip side, top 2026 draft pick Fernando Mendoza struggled mightily for Las Vegas, throwing for 86 yards, getting sacked, and tossing a pick-six—raising doubts about his readiness to start. Anthony Richardson’s Colts preseason was underwhelming, completing just three of nine passes for 24 yards, putting him in a tough spot as he fights for backup status. And JaMori Maclin, cousin of Jeremy Maclin, exploded for 108 yards and a 71-yard TD catch with Buffalo, showcasing elite speed and making a serious case for a roster spot.
