Preseason Week 2 Update (8-25-15)

Week Two of the NFL preseason is in the books. The big story around the NFL right now is injuries. Season ending injuries to be more specific. Since the beginning of rookie camps in May, at least 23 players have torn their ACL's. This is not counting players lost to other injuries for the season. I do not know what the solution to this problem is, but it is devastating to a lot of teams.

While most of college football does not get started until September 3rd, a big FCS game happens on Saturday. Montana and North Dakota State will hook it up and DFD will be watching. Look for a Quick Draft Dish write-up early next week.

The Week Two Preseason Rookie of the Week is: Jets DT Leonard Williams
