He immediately grabbed his right knee. It appeared to be a non-contact injury.He was carted off the field. Not what Chiefs fans want to see: Spencer Ware carted off with an apparent leg injury NFLonCBS (@NFLonCBS) The Chiefs The extent of the injury is unknown, but if Ware is going to mi s a portion of the regular season, it will leave a large void in the Chiefs' offense. Last year, Ware rushed for 921 yards and three scores. He added 447 yards and two touchdowns as a receiver. The Chiefs did draft in the third round, so he'd likely receive more playing time if Ware's injury is a serious one. Their roster also features and C.J. Spiller, both of whom could be in line for more action.The good news is that Hunt looked great in the first half, rushing for Sean Taylor Jersey 39 yards on nine carries. For Fantasy analysis of Ware's injury, Spoiler alert: Hunt could be a quality Fantasy option.Edelman limps off with feared torn ACLThe Patriots' opening drive featured a heavy dose of , but their reliable receiver was unable to finish the drive. After catching his third pa s and picking up his 52nd yard of the drive, Edelman limped off the field with an apparent leg injury. He didn't return during that series, and the team announced soon after that he was questionable to return with a knee injury. In the third quarter, he was ruled out. After the game,Losing Edelman would obviously be a huge blow to the Patriots. Last year, he caught 98 pa ses for 1,106 yards and three touchdowns. , both shakyAlex Smith wasn't good on Friday night. Neither was his supporting cast. The good news for Smith is that Patrick Mahomes was shaky, which means there definitely isn't going to be a quarterback controversy before Week 1. Smith went 7 of 17 for 44 yards, averaging 2.6 yards per attempt. That's awful. But it wasn't entirely his fault: Alex Smith had nearly as many of his pa ses dropped (6) as completed (7) in the first half. Nathan Jahnke (@PFF_NateJahnke) He played the entire first half. In the second half, Mahomes took over. As expected, Mahomes flashed signs of potential ...Mahomes makes a play on 3rd down to pick up the 1st Ben Baldwin (@guga31bb) ... but also provided a reminder that he's still a rookie who needs time to develop. Mahomes what are you doing Ben Baldwin (@guga31bb) In all, Mahomes went 8 of 15 for 70 yards, averaging 4.7 yards per pa s. That's not good enough to warrant starting consideration.It's Alex Smith's job -- for now, at least.Eddie Lacy outshined againIt's not that Eddie Lacy was bad on Friday night, but once again, when he was given an opportunity to take a firm grasp on the RB1 job, he failed to do so.Again, Lacy was fine. He was actually better Casey Toohill Jersey than he had been in previous preseason performances. He rushed for 21 yards on four carries, though 11 of those yards came on his first carry of the game. But someone else was better. That someone else: Chris Carson, who picked up 46 yards on eight carries. Carson, the Seahawks' seventh-round pick, also shined last week, when he rushed for 27 yards on six carries. In his first preseason game, he scored two touchdowns. Nobody should expect Carson to jump over Lacy on the depth chart, but Carson is making his case to claim a spot on the final roster.As for Lacy, he simply hasn't done enough to earn the starting job over his competition, Thomas Rawls and C.J. Prosise, both of whom didn't play on Friday. So Darrick Forrest Jersey , expect some sort of backfield by committee in Seattle. sits, rides bikeSeahawks defensive lineman Michael Bennett continued his protest against racial injustice by remaining seated for the national anthem.

In all, he went 13 of 19 for 200 yards and a touchdown.Brady starts perfectOn the bright side, tore apart the Lions' defense on that opening series, completing all four of his pa ses for 59 yards and a touchdown. Here's the touchdown, a seven-yard pa s to : Touchdown, !Tom Brady hits for the score on the first drive of the game. NFL (@NFL) Brady got the ball back immediately due to a Lions fumble.
