Ravens' Chris Moore Makes Spectacular Catch For Friday's first TD

The Ravens have taken an early 7-0 lead over the Commanders, thanks to this fantastic grab by wideout Chris Moore. A 2016 fourth-round pick out of Cincinnati, Moore began his NFL career with Baltimore. He spent the last two seasons in Washington before returning to the Ravens in July.

Tyler Huntley Flashes the Wheels

Tyler Huntley got the start for Baltimore and showed exactly why he's an ideal backup to Lamar Jackson. His dual-threat playing style fits Baltimore's offense perfectly, even in the preseason.

Jalon Walker to Start for Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face the Jacksonville Jaguars at 7:30 p.m. ET, and fans can expect to see a lot of undrafted quarterback Jalon Daniels. He'll get the start for Tampa, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, and could push for the Bucs' backup role in 2026.

Baker Mayfield is Tampa's starter. Jake Browning and Connor Bazelak are also in the QB room.

Commanders Rookie QB Athan Kaliakmanis Building Momentum

The Baltimore Ravens and Washington Commanders are set to open Friday's schedule, and neither team is expected to put many starters on the field. For Washington, that probably means a heavy dose of quarterbacks Sam Hartman and Athan Kaliakmanis.

Jayden Daniels will sit, while backup Marcus Mariota is out with an MCL sprain.

Kaliakmanis, a seventh-round rookie out of Rutgers, may have already done enough to secure his roster spot. According to Grant Paulsen of 106.7 The Fan, Kaliakmanis could force Washington to keep him on the active roster instead of the practice squad with a strong performance in the preseason finale.

Najee Harris' lone season with the Los Angeles Chargers was ended prematurely by a torn Achilles. Now with a new team, Harris is set to return to the field and make his New York Giants debut on Friday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Harris is looking to earn a role in a Giants backfield that also includes Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy Jr., and Devin Singletary.
