Here's a look at who's in and who's out for Saturday's NFL preseason schedule:
Detroit Lions vs. Indianapolis Colts
Notables playing: QBs Anthony Richardson Sr., Riley Leonard, Easton Stick, Luke Altmyer, Josh Dobbs, WR Keenan Allen, DT DeForest Buckner
Notables confirmed out: QBs Daniel Jones, Jared Goff, RBs Jonathan Taylor, Jahmyr Gibbs, WR Alec Pierce
Richardson will get the first quarter, according to head coach Shane Steichen. Riley Leonard will take the second and Easton Stick will play the entire second half. That plan will see Richardson out there with many Colts starters, though running back Jonathan Taylor will sit. The No. 1 unit will get 8-12 plays on Saturday. The Lions will have one final quarterback test to see who wins the No. 2 job behind Jared Goff. Atlmyer and Dobbs will battle it out with Altmyer entering the game having taken more reps during training camp.
Chicago Bears vs. Tennessee Titans
Notables playing: QB Cam Ward, WR Carnell Tate, RB Tony Pollard, RB Salvon Ahmed
Notables confirmed out: WR Wan'Dale Robinson
Titans head coach Robert Saleh said he expects his starters to play between 25-30 snaps before handing the rest of the game to the backups. Roschon Johnson and Salvon Ahmed will continue their battle at running back to see who will land behind D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai on the Bears’ depth chart.
