Ashton Jeanty has an injury scare after hard hit, but returns to game and scores TD
Ashton Jeanty had little production in a brief outing in his first NFL preseason game. Jeanty looked better in his second game, but also had a welcome to the NFL moment. Jeanty, who had 13 yards rushing on a pair of carries early in the Las Vegas Raiders' game Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers, caught a pass on his first drive, lowered his shoulder and got hit hard. Linebacker Luke Gifford gave Jeanty a hard hit, and although Jeanty got up quickly, he came out of the game and went to the medical tent to presumably have his shoulder lookd at. For those who have fantasy drafts coming up in the next couple weeks, seeing Jeanty suffer an injury was some alarming news. The good news was that Jeanty came out of the medical tent with his helmet and uniform on, and was back on the field on the next drive. And on his next drive he ran over a defender on a nice run. Jeanty looked fast and explosive. He also ran hard and initiated contact. He showed off his power on a touchdown run, keeping his legs moving at the goal line until he was in the end zone. That will be the first touchdown of many for him in a Raiders uniform. Jeanty was the sixth pick of the draft and one of the best running back prospects in many years. Seeing him go to the medical tent caused some skipped heartbeats, but he looked healthy. And for a few carries, looked every bit as good as advertised.

21 Of The Absolute "Dumbest" Reasons People Almost Died That Range From Honestly Kind Of Funny To Scarier Than Any Horror Movie
Recently, I wrote an article sharing people's stories of the absolute dumbest reasons they almost died, and it got really wild! You all really seem to love these, and in response, even more people detailed their own wild, "dumb" near-death experiences. So, I decided to share their answers! Here are some of the best: HBO 1."I was about 8 years old. I was passing around a bowl of hard Christmas candy — my last memory until I took a breath and felt a final whack on my back while hanging upside down by my feet. The piece of candy bounced onto the floor." "Skip ahead about 20 years. I was eating chili when a bean landed across my airway. I couldn't get the attention of my husband or two kids, so I jumped up from the table. That enabled me to blow out the bean. My husband snarled at me, 'What's the matter with you?' I answered, 'Nothing, just choking to death.'" —smartwitch66 2."I ate a Larabar on the first day of law school. Turns out I'm extremely allergic to cashews, which make up Larabars almost entirely. I had a lot of firsts that day: ambulance ride, EpiPen, hospital admittance, and IV." Bloomberg / Getty Images, Jeff Greenberg / Getty Images —foureyedshark 3."It was my first job during high school, in a family-style restaurant kitchen. I was told to clear out and clean the inside of the stand-up refrigerator across from the main grill during a slow period. While wiping the interior down with a damp cleaning rag, I decided the hole near the top needed to be cleaned and, wrapping the rag around my finger, I stuck it into the hole to wipe it out. Yes, it was where the lightbulb would be placed. One moment I was cleaning, the next moment I had been flung across the kitchen and was sitting on the grill. It took a while for my hair to lie back down, and much longer for the burns to heal!" —emoelf137 Related: 4."I was old enough to know better — a tweenager. I thought the inside of our new toaster looked pretty, so I stuck my finger in to feel it. What followed seemed like a cartoon, with zig-zag lightning bolts and me with outstretched arms and face contorted in frozen agony. That was my impression anyway. My mother had her back to me while sitting at the table, unfazed, and I had to tell her what had just happened. Apparently, my brain got not fried, but rather, frazzled; it shook me up to say the least, and that image of the cartoon character never left me." —smileygoose175 5."I was probably around 10, and my 'buddies' dared me to drink some gasoline. God Almighty, was I sick! Crawled home, vomited. Never told anybody, ever, till now." —Anonymous, 77 Toledo 6."One day, I was getting my hair washed by my mom because she had just cut my hair (she's a hairdresser), and I had just taken a Life Saver mint before I leaned down on the chair and started choking on it. Luckily, my mom used the Heimlich maneuver and got it out. Ironically, the Life Saver almost ended my life." Bon Appétit, Bloomberg / Getty Images —Anonymous 7."This happened this year, during winter. We live in the country, and this was my first winter out of the city, driving backroads. Snow had fallen a fairly decent amount, and as I was driving, I'd seen an oncoming car." "I wasn't sure if they had enough room to pass me safely, so I moved over and started sliding off the road. I hit a batch of trees, and had I not turned the wheel to the left, I would've hit the power utility box a few feet away. Total time was five seconds and I made it back on the road safely. I was shaken, scared, and crying. I'm a city girl and only live in the country because it's cheaper." —Anonymous, 53, Wisconsin 8."I had been around good golfers all of my life. On my honeymoon, one of the golfers was majorly slowing down the course, so I tried ways to speed up our play. I thought if we two women could hit our drives first and then move out of the way, that would help. Well, I didn't move out of the way enough — I was ahead of a beginner golfer on his tee shot. I was hit by the golf ball in my eye. Shattered the entire eye orbital, and I lost my vision in that eye. Lucky I didn't die or have brain damage! Btw, I still love to golf!" CBS —Anonymous, 58, salt lake city Related: 9."When I was 5, I lost my uncle to a self-inflicted gunshot wound, and I was the one who found him, a trauma that has stayed with me my entire life. In my 40s, my husband suggested I try to confront my fear by going to a shooting range." "I had just recovered from a tough bout of the flu and was still feeling weak, but I agreed. As I began firing, I felt surprisingly more confident with each shot. After a couple of dry fires, I assumed the gun was jammed and, in a split-second lapse of judgment, turned the barrel toward my face to check it, my finger still on the dry-fired again. My husband immediately grabbed my wrist and shoved it aside — just as I reflexively pulled the trigger a second time, this time firing a live were both shaking, and I'm not ashamed to admit I might have peed a little. I truly believe my uncle was watching over me that day, keeping me safe. I haven't picked up a gun since, and yes, I'm still terrified of them." —Anonymous, 42 About 7 (old enough to know better, I knew not to do this but never told WHY). Stuck a key in an outside outlet. Found myself lying on my back looking up the back stairs at my younger sister, who saw it and never moved. No obvious damage, but forever after I have issues with too much electricity in me." —cheesyglue121 11."I was a freshman in high school on the track team. A few of us were practicing long jumps near the discus throwers. It's a saucer-shaped piece, heavy, with a metal band around the outer edge. One throw went off the back of the hand of the thrower and just grazed the top of my head, leading to a few stitches. A few inches lower, I might not be writing this…" —charmingcoyote425 "I had one of those hit me directly in the head in seventh grade. It caused a concussion, and I'm convinced it's one of the reasons I have severe migraines today. Glad you're OK!" —poeticwitch268 12."Covered a lamp with a towel because it was too dark for pre-teen me to sleep without the lamp, but too bright to try and sleep with it. Did too good a job, and the towel touched the bulb directly. The only reason smoke inhalation didn't get me was mother's intuition; she rescued me as the towel was smoking but not yet in flames." —Anonymous Related: 13."I was about 13 when my parents bought an electric toothbrush. This was in the late '60s, so it was a very new thing. It had an attached cord you needed to plug in. It was early morning before school, and I didn't really have my eyes completely open yet. I had the bright idea to put my finger between the prongs to find the plug, found it, and got a bad shock. Afterwards, I told my parents about it, and my dad just shook his head and said, 'Well, that was stupid.'" 20th Century Studios / Freeform / Via —Anonymous 14."I was driving a pick-up truck while working in a camping park at 15 years old, came across the field, and saw a friend. I grew up shooting bow and arrows. He turned and shot one at the truck. I was driving, thinking it would hit the windshield and glance off, but it came right through and only stopped at my neck from the quills getting stuck in the windshield." 35007 / Getty Images, ABC —Anonymous, 68, Florida 15."1969, I believe. I lived in suburban Arkansas at the time. Crossing the street to go to school, IN A CROSSWALK, I was hit by a car that took off after dropping off a child in the other lane. The driver was looking to make certain their kid got on the sidewalk safely. She 'punched it' pulling away (her words). Knocked me about 10 feet. The driver was screaming in horror that she had killed me. I spent three days in the hospital. Bruises and a good-sized scrape on the back of my skull from the pavement skid. Someone stole the brand-new Superman comics I spent my allowance on the night before. " NBC —Anonymous, 54, South Dakota 16."For some reason, I thought I could examine and fix an outlet that wasn't working by myself with no guidance. Turns out that not only could I not fix it, but also being electrocuted hurts a lot." —Anonymous, 30 17."When I was a toddler, I went to a pool party and they didn't want us tracking water through the house, so they taught us to pee in the drain behind the pool. So a few days later when I had gotten home, I saw a light socket on the floor, and remembering the drain, I peed in it. Luckily, I stepped away just as a wall of fire burst out of the socket, almost reaching the ceiling. My grandmother walked in just in time to see it. She said she had visions of the house burning down and is shocked to this day that I didn't get electrocuted." —Anonymous, 28, Ventura, California 18."I wondered what it looked like when you used a spray bottle, so I looked straight into the sprayer and squeezed the trigger. A mist of chemicals entered my eyes, nose, and mouth. Yep, it hurt. No lasting damage." —Anonymous Related: 19."I was in elementary school and we were in the pool. I had not learned to swim officially; we learned in our middle school gym class. I thought I was being cool by jumping in the deep end. I nearly drowned. I finally found the side of the pool and grabbed on like nobody's business. Nobody, not even the life guards, had any idea I was in trouble." —Anonymous, 53, Maryland 20."My dad was in the military, and we were living in Ohio. Being the baby and the only girl with two older brothers, I was often at their mercy. One day, when we were in the car, the window was down, and my middle brother told me to stick my head out the window, which I did. He then pushed the up button and got my head in the window with the window going into my neck. Luckily, my dad came out and yelled at him and made him stop. Who knows what would've happened to me." —Anonymous 21."I have a severe peanut allergy, and someone gave me a peanut butter-filled pretzel in sixth grade.

Zach Wilson and Quinn Ewers lead Dolphins to 24-17 preseason win over Lions
DETROIT (AP) — Backup quarterback Zach Wilson had a strong first half for the Dolphins and third-stringer Quinn Ewers threw for two second-half touchdowns as Miami beat the Detroit Lions 24-17 in the preseason on Saturday. The teams had a pair of joint practices earlier in the week. Both teams' starters participated in those workouts, but Saturday's game was all about the reserves who are trying to earn roster spots. Wilson, the Dolphins' No. 2 QB behind Tua Tagovailoa, completed 15 of 23 passes for 151 yards and a touchdown. Ewers went 11 of 17 for 116 yards. The Lions also took a long look at their second- and third-string quarterbacks with Jared Goff on the sideline. Kyle Allen impressed in the first half, going 14 for 17 with 124 yards and two scores. Hendon Hooker struggled in the final two quarters, completing 6 of 13 throws for 61 yards and an interception. Ollie Gordon II had 50 yards rushing for the Lions on 10 carries. Jacob Saylor had 13 carries for 39 yards. The Dolphins took a 7-0 lead on Wilson's 11-yard pass to Dee Eskridge late in the first quarter. Detroit tied the game midway through the second on Allen's 11-yard pass to Jackson Meeks. Miami drove to the Detroit 9 in the final two minutes of the first half, but Isaac Ukwu sacked Wilson on fourth-and-4. Isaac TeSlaa caught an 18-yard pass from Allen with 30 seconds left to give the Lions a 14-7 halftime lead. Ewers threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Theo Wease Jr. on his first drive to tie the game, but a fumbled punt led to a 33-yard field goal by Jake Bates and a 17-14 Lions lead. Ewers hit Wease for an 8-yard score to make it 21-17 with 12:22 to play, and Jason Sanders kicked a 21-yard field goal to make it a seven-point game with 1:53 left. The Lions drove to the Miami 13 in the last 30 seconds, but Ethan Robinson intercepted Hooker's pass with 22 seconds left. Up next Dolphins: Finish the preseason next Saturday, when they host Indianapolis. Lions: Host Houston next Saturday in their preseason finale. ___ AP NFL:
