Emmanuel Pregnon, the sole rookie to officially start, made an immediate impact at left guard, showcasing strong performance in both run blocking and pass protection.
Wide receiver Josh Cameron also delivered a standout performance, catching both his targets for 20 yards and a touchdown, while also contributing effectively in the run game. Other rookies like tight end Nate Boerkircher and defensive lineman Albert Regis saw considerable playing time and contributed in rotational roles.

This indicates a competitive depth chart, with players like undrafted defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr. potentially seeing increased opportunities due to injuries on the roster.
