The Bengals lost their first preseason game to the Chiefs 38-17 in Kansas City on Saturday. Starting quarterback Andy Dalton threw the ball 9 times completing 7 passes for 80 yards.

Running back Jordan Ellis led the team with 5 receptions for 44 yards a touchdown. Ellis also had 3 rushes for 11 yards. The Washington Redskins will play their first home football game of the season after losing in Cleveland last Thursday 30-10. The Redskins played three of their six quarterbacks in their first game. Dwayne Haskins Jr. went 8/14 with two interceptions and no touchdowns. Haskins threw for 117 yards and was sacked twice.

The Redskins defense allowed over 300 passing yards against the Browns with two passing touchdowns. Washington recorded just one sack which was by Ryan Bee. Although the defense will need to show some improvement all eyes remain on the quarterback competition for the backup spot.
