17 Aug
Summary
- Rookie Travis Hunter getting reps on both offense and defense for Jaguars
- Saints rookie QB Tyler Shough impresses in preseason opener
- Bills and Bears set to face off in nationally televised preseason game

As the 2025 NFL preseason continues, football fans are in for a treat this Sunday with several exciting matchups on the schedule. The spotlight will be on rookie sensation Travis Hunter, who has been getting reps on both offense and defense for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite missing Friday's practice with an "upper-body injury," Hunter is expected to see limited action in the Jaguars' matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
In the other marquee game, the Buffalo Bills will host the Chicago Bears. The Bills, who are this year's "Hard Knocks" team, are coming off a 34-25 loss to the Giants in their preseason opener. Meanwhile, the Bears' offense, led by quarterback Caleb Williams, will look to build on their 24-24 tie against the Dolphins last weekend.
Elsewhere, Saints rookie QB Tyler Shough impressed in his last outing, going 15-for-22 for 165 yards and a touchdown against the Chargers. The Jaguars will be hoping for a similar performance from their own young signal-caller, Trevor Lawrence, as he continues to develop under new head coach Liam Coen.
