32 Thoughts on the NFL’s Biggest Talking Topics Heading Into Week Three of Preseason | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats & Rumors

Houston Texans: Last week I said I was starting to believe Houston is a legitimate Super Bowl contender. Another smooth preseason performance on both sides of the ball (this time against the Giants) and another week of hard work with few health issues and that belief is growing stronger.

Indianapolis Colts: No serious injuries and the starters put in a lot of work as the team wrapped up preseason on Thursday night. Sometimes that’s enough to be satisfied. This unit should be fun to watch in 2024.

Jacksonville Jaguars: Considering Trevor Lawrence’s injury history, it must be a relief for the Jaguars to see Mac Jones step up. We know the guy has good talent and can at least be a top-level reserve at 25. If Lawrence misses a season this year, the Jags have a better chance of surviving that stretch.

Tennessee Titans: I’ve been noticing lately how experienced this roster is, outside of Will Levis and JC Latham. The news that DeAndre Hopkins is set to return for Week 1 had me a little shaken. Newcomers L’Jarius Sneed, Tony Pollard, Calvin Ridley, Kenneth Murray, Jamal Adams, Lloyd Cushenberry III, Quandre Diggs, Sebastian Joseph-Day, Tyler Boyd, Chidobe Awuzie and Shane Ray make up a fairly experienced team, alongside returning veterans Hopkins, Harold Landry III, Jeffery Simmons, Arden Key and Amani Hooker. It will be fascinating to see how they all come together.
