Alvin Kamara is off and runningSo much for the po sible
duel between former Chargers QBs Philip Rivers and Drew
Brees in Los Angeles on Sunday. The Saints and Chargers
both started their backups with Saints rookie running
back Alvin Kamara stealing the spotlight early.After the
Chargers went three and out on their first drive, the
Saints took over at midfield and Kamara took a handoff
from Chase Daniel off left tackle and took it to the
house. Here's a look. First play on offense for the ?
Rookie RB takes it 50 yards to the house! NFL (@NFL) SEE
YAAD was hyped New Orleans Saints (@Saints) That's a
nice start for the rookie, who is battling for reps in a
crowded Saints backfield that features Adrian Peterson
and Mark Ingram. If Kamara can keep making runs like
that, expect him to keep getting snaps.Kamara wound up
with 61 yards on five carries.James Conner impre sesWith
their third-round selection in this year's draft, the
Steelers took James Conner out of Pitt. It was for the
running back, given Conner battled and beat cancer during
his succe sful college career.Another feel-good moment
happened on Sunday when Conner made an impre sive
preseason debut. Against the Falcons, Conner rushed for
98 yards on 20 carries, which means he averaged 4.9 yards
per carry. On a scoring drive in the fourth quarter,
Conner broke free at multiple points. Here he is picking
up 17 yards: Rookie bursts through for a gain of 17
yards! NFL (@NFL) And here he is going for 20 yards:
Now a gain of 20 yards by ! NFL (@NFL) Conner won't
ever be the featured back in Pittsburgh as long as
Le'Veon Bell is still in town, but he looks like a
capable backup. Who knows, maybe in a year or two Conner
can claim the starting job.Trey Williams makes a strong
impre sionThe Steelers' backfield is a particularly
crowded one. Le'Veon Bell is the clear starter. is a
third-round pick. has been around for a couple seasons.
So, if Trey Williams is going to make the final roster,
he's going to need to make a strong impre sion --
especially on special teams. Here's what he did Sunday:
. .64 yards.HE GONE!

Williams went undrafted last year. As a member of the
Colts, he carried the ball twice for 12 yards. So, he
faces an uphill battle to make the final roster. He did
everything in his power on Sunday, though.Uneven half for
T.J. WattT.J. Watt's preseason debut for the Steelers was
so dominant that outside linebackers coach Joey Porter
declared that Watt's second , though, didn't go as
smoothly.On Sunday, it was an uneven first half for Watt,
who looked solid in run defense, but failed to make an
impact as a pa s rusher. He notched four tackles (two
solo), including one for a lo s. This was probably his
best attempt at getting after the quarterback:TJ Watt's

while pre sing a tight angle. Joe Marino (@TheJoeMarino)
And if that's his best, that means he really wasn't all
too effective.Uninspiring pa s rush reps so far from TJ
Watt. No identifiable plan and fighting body to body. Not
gonna get home like that. Joe Marino (@TheJoeMarino) But
he was a dependable run defender.TJ Watt re-sets the LOS
forcing RB to widen run and cause TFL for D. Strong hand
strike & arm extension. Joe Marino (@TheJoeMarino)
(Go check out for more examples from Watt's outing).Don't
get down on Watt for his inability to get after the
quarterback -- after all, it's only his second ever game
-- but it is a reminder that Watt is rookie and we
probably shouldn't expect too much of him just yet. He's
not going to be like his brother, J.J. Watt, in his first
profe sional season. He'll probably be forced to give up
some snaps to Harrison, who's been doing this forever.
And he's going to experience some growing pains.But
everything Watt has done seems to demonstrate that he's
going to be able handle himself when the real games
begin. No, he didn't get a sack on Sunday. But there's
more to playing outside linebacker than getting sacks. He
looked solid in run defense. That matters too.Matt Ryan
on fire against shorthanded defenseMatt Ryan started off
hot against the Steelers. After the Falcons' defense
forced a punt, Ryan was forced to begin his first drive
backed up at his own 9-yard line. The poor field position
didn't matter much, as Ryan led the Falcons 91 yards
downfield in 10 plays. The scoring drive was punctuated
by a touchdown run, but make no mistake about it: The
drive was all about Ryan. On that drive, Ryan went 4 of
6 for 56 yards. He spread the ball around, completing two
pa ses to , one to , and another to

control, navigating the pocket with the kind of mastery
we've come to expect from the reigning MVP.After the
touchdown, Ryan's day was finished. This preseason, Ryan
is 7 of 9 for 89 yards and a touchdown. So no, he does
not look like he's going to experience a hangover.Of
course, it is worth pointing out that the Steelers'
defense was a bit shorthanded. Among Steelers
defensive starters out: Bud Dupree, Ryan Shazier, James
Harrison, Mike Mitchell. Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN)
Martavis Bryant's returnFinally, Martavis Bryant made it
back onto the field on Sunday, playing his first NFL
snaps in 19 months. The last time he played? January of
2016. , who was targeted by Steelers rookie quarterback
on a quick screen on the first play from scrimmage. The
two hooked up, but Bryant was tackled immediately and
lost three yards. In the second quarter, Bryant carried
the ball on a reverse, but he fumbled. The ball went out
of bounds, though, so the Steelers retained po se sion of
the football. A couple plays later, Bryant finally did
something positive, making a tough catch down the
sideline for a 24-yard gain. . is back in action!He

Reed activated off PUPGood news for the Redskins. Their
tight end, Jordan Reed, is ready to play.On Sunday, off
the physically unable to perform list. Reed landed on the
PUP list on the eve of training camp due to a toe injury.
Getting activated off PUP means he was cleared by
doctors. That's great news. When healthy, Reed is one of
the league's best pa s-catching tight ends. In 2015, when
he appeared in 14 games, he ra
