Baylor Football
Two weeks to open the preseason without a target. With rookies Cooper Kupp and Josh Reynolds making noise, Cannon's odds of a roster spot are sinking.
Aiavion Edwards, LB — Los Angeles Chargers
Been a ghost since mini camp.
Kyle Fuller, G — Houston Texans
Went without a snap against Patriots but has been competing as a backup at both guard and center in practice.
Orion Stewart, S — Denver Broncos
Returned after leaving Week 1 with an injury but dropped from five tackles to one solo tackle. Also missed a TD-saving tackle being stiff armed with an arm tackle attempt. Needs work to make the 53-man roster but hopes are still high.
Ryan Reid, S — Los Angeles Chargers
Tipped a pass from Drew Brees to turn it into an intereception. That was during a scrimmage before the game but regardless, it's a play coaches love to see especially against a future Hall of Famer. In the game, Reid had three tackles, gunning for a roster spot now.
Seth Russell, QB — Free Agent
Still no word on any team taking a shot with Russell after being let go by the Raiders.
Ish Zamora, WR — Oakland Raiders
Zero production in Week 2. Even worse, the two other UDFAs he's competing with had five catches on eight targets. Practice squad's name is calling right now.
Had one tackle in 21 defensive snaps but still has that track speed he became famous for tracking down that Jayhawks RB.
Jarell Broxton, G — Baltimore Ravens
Listed as second backup to six-time Pro-Bowler Marshal Yanda.
Corey Coleman, WR — Cleveland Browns
Coleman was the team's leading receiver Monday night with 29 yards on two receptions, only going out there for a few drives.
Spencer Drango, OT — Cleveland Browns
Not much to report on Drango's playing. But he did beat Joe Thomas in the pool this week.
Rico Gathers, TE — Dallas Cowboys
Has been held out of practice being evaluated for a concussion. His first two games have set expectations high, grabbing everyone's attention in the best possible way. The Cowboys have been running a lot of two-TE sets with Witten and Gathers in practice.
Xavien Howard, CB — Miami Dolphins
After a questionable performance in Week 1, Howard showed off his ball skills to prove he's starter material.
Jimmy Landes, LS — Free Agent
Let go by Detroit Lions in June.
Blake Muir, OT — Indianapolis Colts
Muir was waived Monday and awaits to clear waivers. If he is not picked up by a team, he'll move to the injured reserve list like Antwan Goodley.
Waived by Chiefs in July, reverted to team injured reserve list after passing through waivers.
Bryce Hager, LB — Los Angeles Rams
Has just three tackles through both games but a roster spot is certainly in the cards with a couple years left on his contract.
Bryce Petty, QB — New York Jets
Head coach Todd Bowls was impressed with Petty playing the entire second half. Petty completed 15-of-24 passes for 160 yayds with an interception and no touchdown. Expect this to secure his roster spot battling for the QB2 spot with Christian Hackenberg.
Demetri Goodson, CB — Green Bay Packers
PUP list (knee). Not expected to play until Week 7 recovering from ACL surgery.
Cyril Richardson, OT — Chicago Bears
Backup to All-Pro left guard Josh Sitton following Eric Kush tearing hamstring. Second straight week he struggled to impress, allowing the team's sole sack to franchise first-rounder QB Mitch Trubisky.
No stats in the preseason but is nothing less than the WR2. Been putting on a show in practice.
Still working as the WR3 but had a down week with just three targets for two receptions and nine yards.
Robert Griffin III, QB — Free Agent
Nobody's picking up RG3 anytime soon.
Phil Taylor, DT — Washington Redskins
Showed off his run-stuffing ability last week and flashed pass rush potential getting to the QB for a sack and QB hit. Looking like a great investment for Washington after Taylor sat idle the past two years.
Enters eighth season with Texans, looking to make his second Pro Bowl.
Made both his fireld goal attempts from within 30 yards and XP try.
