Posted Aug 15, 2022
It was a good weekend of exhibition games for the two UNC quarterbacks in the NFL on Saturday, with Commanders rookie Sam Howell putting on a show off the bench and new Steeler Mitch Trubisky playing well as a starter. Ty Chandler made an excellent first impression in his Minnesota debut with a 56-yard kickoff return and five carries for 50 yards.
