Christian McCaffrey rushed three times for 33 yards and one touchdown in the Panthers' second preseason game, adding two catches for 39 yards.

Advice: The Panthers' offense barely saw the field in the first quarter due to a first-play fumble by Devin Funchess and then a Derek Anderson interception, but Jonathan Stewart played six of the first ten snaps, with McCaffrey getting the other four and the next five. McCaffrey ripped off numerous big plays in succession, first a 13-yard run up the gut followed by a 17-yard touchdown between the right guard and tackle. On the next drive, he took a screen 38 yards. McCaffrey's burst especially stands out. He's the real deal. McCaffrey's ADP has settled in the mid third round. Rotoworld.com Today, 1:56 pm

Mike Gillislee (hamstring) has been ruled out of Saturday's preseason game.

Advice: Gillislee wasn't expected to play after not practicing the last two weeks. The missed time continues to be a concern for his early-season role. ESPN's Mike Reiss expects Rex Burkhead to pick up Gillislee's snaps. Rotoworld.com Today, 1:36 pm

Marcus Mariota completed 6-of-8 passes for 61 yards and one touchdown in the Titans' second preseason game against the Panthers.

Advice: Mariota played a pair of series, leading a field goal drive on the first before finishing the second off with a four-yard touchdown to Delanie Walker who was wide open on a corner route. Mariota's first pass was a 20-yard bullet on a deep in to rookie WR Taywan Taylor. On the next play, Mariota kept it on a read-option for a nine-yard run. Looking healthy off last year's broken fibula, Mariota has top-five fantasy QB upside with a now-loaded skill group. Rotoworld.com Today, 12:44 pm

DeMarco Murray (hamstring) isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason game.

Advice: Murray was healthy enough to suit up, but didn't take part in pregame warmups. The Titans are taking it slow despite his return to practice. Derrick Henry will continue to rep with the starters. Rotoworld.com Today, 11:42 am

Leonard Fournette (foot) expects to be ready for Week 1.

Advice: This is good news for their workhorse back. Foot and ankle injuries clearly hindered Fournette's rushing ability in his last season at LSU, making this injury something to keep an eye on. Rotoworld.com Today, 9:53 am

Maxx Williams caught 2-of-3 targets for 48 yards in Thursday's second preseason game.

Advice: Williams looked explosive on his 40-yard catch and run on a play-action bootleg. The former second-round pick has struggled to contribute early, but he recently received the support of coach John Harbaugh, who called him "a sneaky athlete." It is unclear if he is also a gritty gamer with a high football IQ. With not much at the position besides 36-year-old Ben Watson, Williams will have the opportunity to be the starting tight end if he continues to make big plays. Rotoworld.com Today, 9:05 am

Redskins coaches like how Samaje Perine responded following a disappointing preseason opener.

Advice: Perine fumbled, dropped a pass, and struggled in pass protection in his first NFL game, but he apparently bounced back with a strong week of practice. Still, the coaching staff wants to see how he reacts in another game situation Saturday night. Perine remains well behind Rob Kelley, but he still has time to close the gap.

T.J. Yeldon exited the second preseason game with a hamstring injury.

Advice: The severity of the injury is not known, but it is another setback for a player who has struggled with injuries throughout his short career and sat out the entire offseason program with an ankle issue. Yeldon's spot as the third-down back is likely secure, but that could change if he is not able to get and stay healthy. Rotoworld.com Today, 7:48 am

Kasen Williams caught 2-of-4 targets for 28 yards and one touchdown in the Seahawks' second preseason game.

Advice: Building on his 4-119 line from last week, Williams ran exclusively with the Russell Wilson group, playing 11 of the first 15 snaps while making a 27-yard one-handed catch in Xavier Rhodes' coverage before then nabbing a one-yard touchdown on a fade. Williams could (should) have had another touchdown but dropped a 45-yarder that hit him in the belly. Williams is passing Jermaine Kearse for No. 4 receiver duties behind Doug Baldwin, Paul Richardson, and Tyler Lockett, and both Richardson and Lockett have big durability concerns.

Updating an earlier report, Le'Veon Bell's agent has denied that he had a deal in place with the Steelers ahead of the July 17 deadline for franchise players.

Advice: It was reported that agent Adisa Bakari had negotiated a five-year extension with Pittsburgh before Bell nixed the deal but Bakari has since refuted that claim. "All stories to contrary are false," he said. The Steelers reportedly offered their star running back a deal worth at least $12 million annually, though Bell thought he could do better. Bell has yet to sign his $12.1 million franchise tender, which allows him to hold out without being fined. He should resurface ahead of Week 1. Rotoworld.com Yesterday, 12:39 pm
