Details
  • Buffalo vs St. Louis: DeJuan Groce didn’t impress at all, getting beaten a lot and especially abused by a #14-wearing scrub WR for Buffalo’s 3rd TD. (GridIron Gateway)
  • Scott Shanle played well on STs, write Shanle’s name down on the roster sheet in ink. (GridIron Gateway)
  • The Rams lost defensive starter LB Pisa Tinoisamoa when he suffered a sprained ankle midway through the second quarter. The injury didn't appear to be serious. Tinoisamoa limped off with 7:55 remaining in the second quarter amd was replaced on the starting defensive unit by rookie Scott Shanle, a seventh-round draft pick from Nebraska. (St. Louis Dispatch)
  • Houston vs San Deigo: LB Jay Foreman sustained a sprained neck during the game. It wasn't immediately clear if it would affect his availability for Thursday night's exhibition finale at Tampa Bay. (AP)
  • Carolina vs Green Bay: Steve Warren was in uniform but did not play.
  • Panthers defensive end Mike Rucker left in the first half with a sprained left ankle and did not return. (Charlotte Observer)
  • With starters from both teams playing into the third quarter, Carolina's defense was almost flawless until Ahman Green broke off a 45-yard touchdown run with 11 minutes, 1 second left in the third quarter. (Charlotte Observer)
  • San Francisco vs New Orleans: Bill LaFleur had three punts, producing a net average of 26. 7 yards and a gross average of 33.3 yards. (Contra Costa Times)
  • Houston vs San Diego: Dahrran Diedrick carried the load in the first half. He finished with seven rushes for 29 yards and four catches for 41 yards. Diedrick had a 14-yard run and 21-yard reception on San Diego's first-half touchdown drive. (Salisbury Post)
  • Kansas City vs Seattle: Like a pitcher in the middle of a perfect game, Josh Brown doesn't want to talk about it. But he knows it's there: four field goals attempted in three exhibition games, four makes, including two last night. As if two field goals (32 yards and 50 yards) and four extra points last night weren't enough, Brown also sent several kickoffs deep, including one to start the game that bounced out of the end zone. It marked the first touchback for the Seahawks since 2000, Brown said.
      "My expectations are probably always out of reach," Brown said. "I expect a lot out of myself. But I've been working hard. So this is a good start." (Seattle Times)
Details
  • New Orleans vs New York Jets: Saints reserve cornerback Keyuo Craver suffered a left hip pointer in the third quarter and did not return to the game. (The Times-Picayune)
  • Arizona vs San Diego: Cardinals DE Kyle Vanden Bosch suffered torn ligaments in his left knee and will undergo an MRI to determine the extent of the injury. The injury could be season-ending, but the team won't know until Monday. This is the second knee injury for Vanden Bosch who sat out the 2001 season after he blew out his right knee. (ESPN)
  • Chargers OG Toniu Fonoti (feet) did not play.
