Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson dislocated the pinky finger on his throwing hand as the opening week of the NFL preseason began tonight.
Baltimore beat Indianapolis 24-16, with Ravens wideout LaJohntay Wester's 87-yard punt return touchdown the play of the night. Richardson left the game early in the first quarter after David Ojabo's blind-side sack, with head coach Shane Steichen calling the quarterback 'day-to-day' afterward.
Philadelphia secured a 34-27 win over Cincinnati in a game that saw two touchdown passes each for Joe Burrow and Tanner McKee.
Finally, Daniel Carlson's 51-yard field goal capped Las Vegas' comeback to secure a 23-23 tie with Seattle in Pete Carroll's return to Lumen field, wrapping up the Thursday action. Three more games will take place Friday night. Share your thoughts: live@theathletic.com
Q3 12:39 - Seahawks 16, Raiders 3
Some promising signs from Jalen Milroe in the read-option game, but his first drive under center for the Seahawks stalls out due in part to an offensive holding penalty. Milroe is lucky to escape without an interception on a risky pass on third-and-14. Imagn Images
Marshawn Lynch has made his way up to the Seahawks' TV booth, and he's about to be fitted with a headset...
Between him, Mike Robinson and Michael Bennett, we're in for some comedy from the former Seahawks teammates.
Q3 15:00 - Seahawks 16, Raiders 3
...and rookie quarterback Jalen Milroe is in the game!
Time to see what Klint Kubiak has cooked up for the athletic former Alabama star. Getty Images
The Raiders have 23 yards rushing on 9 carries. Aidan O'Connell has thrown two interceptions. Seattle is averaging 5.5 yards per carry on running back runs.
Pete Carroll probably in there plowing through a pack of gum at halftime.
Don't tell these Seahawks diehards that it's still only early August.
It's not an uncommon sight to see a running back collide with a photographer on the sidelines. But it's not every day that the photographer has more experience rushing for touchdowns than the running back.... Getty Images
Raiders looked like a team that haven't had a live tackling practice yet and practiced tackling bags all training camp. Getty Images
HALFTIME - Seahawks 16, Raiders 3
A badly shanked 55-yard field goal try from Dylan Carlson pretty much sums up that first half for the Raiders. Ugly stuff to begin the Pete Carroll era in Las Vegas.
Some good rushes in the 1st half by Tyreke Smith. He had the pressure that forced an intentional grounding penalty and just wiped away a big gain there by drawing a holding call off the edge.
And speaking of Marshawn Lynch's sideline antics tonight... Getty Images
The Seahawks' local broadcast team, Kate Scott and Mike Robinson, just said Marshawn Lynch — who is on the sideline as a credentialed photographer — is trying to FaceTime them during the final two minutes of the first half.
Scott and Robinson declined to answer, focusing instead on the broadcast.
Q2 1:42 - Seahawks 16, Raiders 3
A nice bounce-back from Jason Myers there. The Seahawks kicker curls a 48-yard field goal past the left upright to atone for his missed extra point earlier. Imagn Images
Q2 2:00 - Seahawks 13, Raiders 3
...and the home team is in full control of this one. The Seahawks' offense is set up deep in Raiders territory after that interception and looking to tack on some more before halftime.
Consider Michael Bennett anti-AI as he rails against the new virtual measurement system that the NFL is implementing.
In all seriousness, the Seahawks legend is a great addition to this local Seattle broadcast.
Q2 4:55 - Seahawks 13, Raiders 3
This time it's safety Nehemiah Pritchett laying back and picking off Aidan O'Connell. Once again, the Seahawks are flagged for the team's starters, not in full uniform, running onto the field off the bench to celebrate! Getty Images
Seattle is averaging 6.3 yards per play and has converted 75 percent of its third downs. Not good for the Raiders defense.
While Tanner McKee, Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase were the standout performers in tonight's Eagles win over the Bengals, here are a few other players who performed well: Eagles RB ShunDerrick Powell — 6 carries for 32 yards, TD
— 6 carries for 32 yards, TD Eagles WR Darius Cooper — 6 catches for 82 yards, TD
— 6 catches for 82 yards, TD Eagles WR Johnny Wilson — 3 catches for 73 yards
— 3 catches for 73 yards Bengals TE Tanner Hudson — 3 catches for 62 yards, 2 TDs
— 3 catches for 62 yards, 2 TDs Kickers Evan McPherson and Jake Elliott — both 2-2 on FGs
...the Seahawks' social media admin is having some fun tonight at the expense of Ashton Jeanty. Getty Images
Q2 6:37 - Seahawks 13, Raiders 3
Really nice job from two rookies on that play. Running back Damien Martinez splits out wide and draws the secondary deep, giving Drew Lock space to hit Tory Horton on a short stick route.
Horton then spins away from a defender — another missed tackle for the Raiders' defense in an ugly first half — and scampers into the end zone for his first NFL touchdown! It's deserved for the training camp standout.
However, the Seahawks miss the ensuing extra point.

Like Aidan O'Connell, Drew Lock was once in the running for Seahawks starting quarterback but is now firmly entrenched as a backup in his second stint in Seattle. He had a mixed bag while getting the start with Sam Darnold watching from the sidelines. Lock went 12-for-22 with 147 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
Jalen Milroe was also inconsistent in his first taste of NFL game action, but showed flashes of athleticism that made him such a tantalizing NFL prospect. The rookie quarterback went 6-for-10 passing with 61 yards and added 38 yards on three carries with his legs.
Aidan O'Connell is no longer in the running for the Raiders' starting quarterback job, but he saw the majority of snaps for Las Vegas tonight after taking over for starter Geno Smith following the Raiders' first offensive series. (Smith went 1-for-3 with 15 passing yards).
O'Connell scuffled quite a bit against, largely, the Seahawks' backups before finding his footing a bit more in the second half as Seattle went deeper into its depth chart.
Still, going 18-for-30 with 205 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions isn't exactly going to leave anyone too thrilled at his performance tonight — especially after Cam Miller's sterling debut that Tashan Reed chronicled below. Getty Images
Not much going for Ashton Jeanty in his first taste of NFL action.
The 2024 Heisman Trophy runner-up and No. 6 overall pick in last April's draft had -1 yards on three carries before being removed from the game early along with the rest of the Raiders' projected offensive starters. Imagn Images
Close observers of Seahawks training camp probably aren't surprised that Tory Horton impressed in his first taste of NFL game action.
The fifth-round rookie coming off a standout college career at Colorado State had 31 yards and a touchdown in three receptions. Imagn Images
George Holani, who once started ahead of Ashton Jeanty at Boise State and spent last year on the Seahawks' practice squad, was the biggest standout of the night for Seattle.
He had seven carries for 61 yards and a touchdown — all in the first quarter. Three of those carries went for 20 yards or more.
Rookie quarterback Cam Miller was impressive in first in-game action. His first drive ended in a beautiful touchdown bomb. His next resulted in a game-tying field goal. And then his last one was good enough to get them in range for a game-winning attempt.
Although the kick was blocked, Miller's performance still stood out.
The Raiders tie with the Seahawks at 23 in their preseason opener. It wasn't the most inspiring effort, but they finished strong in the second half after coming out flat to start the game.
That fight they displayed was the biggest positive takeaway while the most significant concern has to be how leaky the defense looked, but it's important to remember that there's still plenty of time to go before Week 1 arrives.
FINAL - Raiders 26, Seahawks 23
Some really, really impressive fight from the second and third stringers to claw back in this one, but Dylan Carlson's game-winning kick attempt is blocked!
Pete Carroll can only grimace in frustration on the sideline as he watches the chance to beat his old team fall away.
Q4 0:14 - Raiders 23, Seahawks 23
Cam Miller to Shedrick Jackson again! Raiders are down to the Seahawks' 39-yard line, well in field-goal range...
Q4 0:35 - Raiders 23, Seahawks 23
Now it's Jalen Milroe's turn to get sacked, forcing a punt from deep in Seahawks territory.
Can the Raiders complete the comeback?!
Q4 1:12 - Raiders 23, Seahawks 23
Don't worry, folks — there are no overtimes in preseason. But Jalen Milroe and the Seahawks will still have 72 seconds to attempt a game-winning drive after Dylan Carlson nails the game-tying field goal for the Raiders.
Q4 1:22 - Seahawks 23, Raiders 20
HUGE sack from Connor O'Toole, and the Raiders have to take a timeout. That might change some things for Las Vegas...
Pete Carroll plays for the tie and sends out Dylan Carlson...
Q4 2:00 - Seahawks 23, Raiders 20
This time it's Pete Carroll and Chip Kelly who gamble an fourth down, and Cam Miller delivers on a delayed quarterback run!
The Raiders are down to the Seahawks' 31-yard line — can they tie or take the lead?
Good ol' 4th-down rollout there that doesn't end up working. Need to see a replay but wonder if Jalen Milroe may have gotten the first by just taking off.
Q4 4:12 - Seahawks 23, Raiders 20
A major gamble by Mike Macdonald and Klint Kubiak backfires! They go for it on fourth-and-1 and come up short, as Jalen Milroe opts to pass on a bootleg option play but can't thread the needle downfield.
The Raiders now get the ball back near midfield with just over four minutes left and the chance to take the lead...
Q4 5:24 - Seahawks 23, Raiders 20
Jalen Milroe's legs and athleticism are as advertised! He keeps the ball on a read-option deep in the Seahawks' on territory and scampers over 25 yards for a big gain.
The Seahawks bench loves it.
Rookie quarterback Cam Miller ended his first NFL drive with a highlight. After freezing the defense with a pump fake, he threw a perfect pass to receiver Shedrick Jackson for a 41-yard touchdown.
Q4 7:27 - Seahawks 23, Raiders 20
WOW, an impressive recovery from Cam Miller after the Raiders were starting to go backward at midfield. Miller hits Shedrick Jackson on a beautiful sluggo route down the sideline for a 41-yard touchdown! Getty Images
Q4 8:50 - Seahawks 23, Raiders 13
Rookie Cam Miller finally takes over for Aidan O'Connell at quarterback.
But it's the Raiders running backs who are showing off, as Dylan Laube and Chris Collier both have big gains this drive to get Las Vegas deep into Seattle territory.

Recapping Day 13 of Chicago Bears training camp

The Chicago Bears were back at Halas Hall for their 13th training camp practice, and there were some headlines and standouts from a non-padded workout. The Bears had a lighter practice after Tuesday's padded session as they prepare to welcome the Miami Dolphins for a joint practice on Friday. There weren't a whole lot of takeaways from this session, where Ben Johnson's trickeration was both good and bad. Although, the end to Thursday's practice certainly seemed fun as some offensive players went to defense and some defensive players switched it up to offense. Let's recap Day 13 of Bears training camp: What we learned The Bears wrapped a lighter practice on Thursday ahead of the Dolphins coming to town for a joint practice on Friday. But that doesn't mean they didn't have some fun. During the final period of practice, head coach Ben Johnson decided to play around with moving guys around -- and it's not just offensive linemen catching passes. Johnson put some offensive guys on defense and some defensive guys on offense for the final rep of 11-on-11. According to Nicholas Moreano, quarterback Caleb Williams led the defense as the offense. Facing third-and-5, William completed a pass to cornerback Nick McCloud, with Olamide Zaccheaus in coverage, to get the first down. The offense's punishment? Push ups. The Bears got great news with the return of tight end Cole Kmet, who exited Tuesday's practice with an apparent injury. Unfortunately, there were two other key starters who exited Thursday's practice early: Cornerback Kyler Gordon and right tackle Darnell Wright. According to Scott Bair, Gordon was spotted heading to the locker room and didn't return to practice. The Bears have a deep cornerback group, but they're potentially down their top two corners in Jaylon Johnson and Gordon. Johnson suffered a leg injury while training before camp kicked into gear. Meanwhile, according to Brad Biggs, Wright "came up awkward" during the final team period of Thursday's non-padded practice. Wright is the lone returning starter from last year's disastrous offensive line, and the former first-round pick is entering his third season where he's looking to take another step forward. The Bears starting offense has had its struggles during the two-minute offense at times this summer, but they had a successful attempt on Thursday. According to Greg Braggs, quarterback Caleb Williams led the first-team offense into field goal position where the operations and snaps were clean and everyone was organized at the line of scrimmage. Williams connected with wide receiver Rome Odunze a couple of times while also finding receiver Olamide Zaccheaus. Rookie tight end Colston Loveland continues to make plays during training camp, and it's not even a surprise anymore. Mark Carman noted that it was another day of Loveland catching multiple balls out on the field, which included a completion on a "side arm missile" from quarterback Caleb Williams. Greg Braggs said that Loveland "makes at least one nice play every day of practice." 670 the Score's Chris Emma said Loveland "doesn't look a tight end. He doesn't even look like a wide receiver. He's a mismatch out there. He's such a natural route-runner. You see his ability to separate from a defender." Loveland has had immediate success during practice, and the hope is that translates to the field. It's even more impressive considering Loveland didn't participate in any of the offseason program as he rehabbed from shoulder surgery. Veteran defensive end Montez Sweat has been having a quietly, dominant training camp, where he continues to challenge right tackle Darnell Wright. According to 79th & Halas Podcast, has gotten the best of Wright during Thursday's practice. "In a game, he'd probably strip sack Caleb." Sweat has been a problem for opposing tackles throughout training camp, and he's also making Wright better. It's clear Sweat is healthy and ready to get after opposing quarterbacks this season. The battle for the starting left tackle job rages on between veteran Braxton Jones and rookie Ozzy Trapilo. Today, it was Jones' turn to start with the first-team offense, but Trapilo did rotate in every other team period. It certainly sounds like Jones is getting healthier, as Mark Carman noted, and he had some "physical blocks" during Thursday's practice. But he did face some challenges from defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo, who beat Jones on back-to-back plays, according to Greg Braggs, showing "impressive burst at the snap." Although, Jones bested defensive end Austin Booker during his rep with the second-team offense. Friday's practice will be a big one as Chicago welcomes Miami to town. Whoever is starting with the first-team offense could have the edge, although the expectation is both Jones and Trapilo will get reps with the starters. Standouts HC Ben Johnson: After Tuesday's intense practice, things were a bit quieter on Thursday. The Bears didn't practice in pads and weren't going at full speed. Still, head coach Ben Johnson made his mark on this practice with some of the drills he had his players doing. Near the end of the session, Johnson added a fun wrinkle by putting defensive players on offense and offensive players on defense. D'Andre Swift was at linebacker, Joe Thuney was playing defensive tackle, and Tremaine Edmunds was the halfback during some interesting and entertaining plays. That's the balance Johnson is striking in these camp practices. One day, it's a physical practice with more hitting than people can remember. The next, players are literally switching positions. DE Dayo Odeyingbo: Even though the pads weren't on, offensive and defensive linemen still got after it on Thursday. That included defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo, who had a few nice reps against the tackle he was going against. According to CHGO's Greg Braggs Jr., Odeyingbo got past Braxton Jones multiple times to get to the ball carrier. Both plays came in team drills, and while one of the reps still resulted in a big gain by Swift, it's good to see one of the prized free agents make his presence felt. DE Montez Sweat: It doesn't matter if the Bears are practicing in full pads or in shells because Montez Sweat will make a big play one way or another. Sweat has been a mainstay on our standout lists throughout camp, and he showed why yet again on Thursday. According to the 79th and Halas Podcast, Sweat was giving fits to tackle Darnell Wright all day and likely would have gotten a strip sack of Williams in a live setting. Sweat has had a tremendous camp up to this point and has earned the praise of the front office over the course of the entire offseason. All of it is shaping up to be a big year for No. 98. Injury updates The good news is the Bears did get back tight end Cole Kmet, who avoided an injury after leaving Tuesday's practice. But cornerback Kyler Gordon and dright tackle Darnell Wright did exit Thursday's workout, and their statuses are unknown. We should know come Friday's joint practice. Meanwhile, the Bears announced that running back Roschon Johnson and center Doug Kramer are nursing foot injuries. Also sidelined, per Dan Wiederer: Offensive tackle Kiran Amegadjie, cornerback Zah Frazier, defensive tackle Shemar Turner, offensive lineman Bill Murray and wide receiver Miles Boykin. Highlights Press conferences What's next The Bears will host the Miami Dolphins for a joint training camp practice on Friday morning at 10:30 a.m. CT. It will be open to fans.
