Week 2 of the NFL preseason continued Sunday, when the Steelers hosted the Falcons and the Chargers hosted the Saints. Both games came down to the wire, with the Steelers and Saints coming away with wins. Below, you'll find everything important that happened during those games and updates from earlier this week.Scores and schedule 20, 16 ( ) 31, 7 ( ) 12, 8 ( ) 20, 13 ( ) 34, 27 ( ) 30, 12 ( ) 24, 19 ( ) 16, 6 ( ) 21, 17 ( ) 27, 23 ( ) 33, 14 ( ) 24, 21 ( ) 24, 23 ( ) Steelers 17, 13 ( ) 13, 7 ( ) at , 8 p.m. Mon. ( ) Alvin Kamara is off and runningSo much for the po sible duel between former Chargers QBs Philip Rivers and Drew Brees in Los Angeles on Sunday. The Saints and Chargers both started their backups with Saints rookie running back Alvin Kamara stealing the spotlight early.After the Chargers went three and out on their first drive, the Saints took over at midfield and Kamara took a handoff from Chase Daniel off left tackle and took it to the house. Here's a look. First play on offense for the ?Rookie RB takes it 50 yards to the house! NFL (@NFL) SEE YAAD was hyped New Orleans Saints (@Saints) That Rick Nash Women Jersey 's a nice start for the rookie, who is battling for reps in a crowded Saints backfield that features Adrian Peterson and Mark Ingram. If Kamara can keep making runs like that, expect him to keep getting snaps.Kamara wound up with 61 yards on five carries.James Conner impre sesWith their third-round Danton Heinen Men Jersey selection in this year's draft, the Steelers took James Conner out of Pitt. It was for the running back, given Conner battled and beat cancer during his succe sful college career.Another feel-good moment happened on Sunday when Conner made an impre sive preseason debut. Against the Falcons, Conner rushed for 98 yards on 20 carries, which means he averaged 4.9 yards per carry. On a scoring drive in the fourth quarter, Conner broke free at multiple points. Here he is picking up 17 yards: Rookie bursts through for a gain of 17 yards! NFL (@NFL) And here he is going for 20 yards: Now a gain of 20 yards by ! NFL (@NFL) Conner won't ever be the featured back in Pittsburgh as long as Le'Veon Bell is still in town, but he looks like a capable backup. Who knows, maybe in a year or two Conner can claim the starting job.Trey Williams makes a strong impre sionThe Steelers' backfield is a particularly crowded one. Le'Veon Bell is the clear starter. is a third-round pick. has been around for a couple seasons. So, if Trey Williams is going to make the final roster, he's going to need to make a strong impre sion -- especially on special teams. Here's what he did Sunday: . .64 yards.HE GONE! NFL (@NFL) Williams went undrafted last year. As a member of the Colts, he carried the ball twice for 12 yards. So, he faces an uphill battle to make the final roster. He did everything in his power on Sunday, though.Uneven half for T.J. WattT.J. Watt's preseason debut for the Steelers was so dominant that outside linebackers coach Joey Porter declared that Watt's second preseason game, though, didn't go as smoothly.On Sunday, it was an uneven first half for Watt, who looked solid in run defense, but failed to make an impact as a pa s rusher. He notched four tackles (two solo), including one for a lo s. This was probably his best attempt at getting after the quarterback:TJ Watt's best rush so far. Chop-rip while pre sing a tight angle. Joe Marino (@TheJoeMarino) And if that's his best, that means he really wasn't all too effective.Uninspiring pa s rush reps so far from TJ Watt. No identifiable plan and fighting body to body. Not gonna get home like that. Joe Marino (@TheJoeMarino) But he was a dependable run defender.TJ Watt re-sets the LOS forcing RB to widen run and cause TFL for D. Strong hand strike & arm extension. Joe Marino (@TheJoeMarino) (Go check out for more examples from Watt's outing).Don't get Paul Postma Women Jersey down on Watt for his inability to get after the quarterback -- after all, it's only his second ever NFL game -- but it is a reminder that Watt is rookie and we probably shouldn't expect too much of him just yet. He's not going to be like his brother, J.J. Watt, in his first profe sional season. He'll probably be forced to give up some snaps to Harrison, who's been doing this forever. And he's Bobby Orr Jersey going to experience some growing pains.But everything Watt has done seems to demonstrate that he's going to be able handle himself when the real games begin. No, he didn't get a sack on Sunday. But there's more to playing outside linebacker than getting sacks. He looked solid in run defense. That matters too.Matt Ryan on fire against shorthanded defenseMatt Ryan started off hot against the Steelers. After the Falcons' defense forced a punt, Ryan was forced to begin his first drive backed up at his own 9-yard line. The poor field position didn't matter much, as Ryan led the Falcons 91 yards downfield in 10 plays. The scoring drive was punctuated by a touchdown run, but make no mistake about it: The drive was all about Ryan. On that drive, Ryan went 4 of 6 for 56 yards. He spread the ball around, completing two pa ses to , one to , and another to . He was in total control, navigating the pocket with the kind of mastery we've come to expect from the reigning MVP.After the touchdown, Ryan's day was finished. This preseason, Ryan is 7 of 9 for 89 yards and a touchdown. So no, he does not look like he's going to experience a Super Bowl hangover.Of course, it is worth pointing out that the Steelers' defense was a bit shorthanded. Among Steelers defensive starters out: Bud Dupree, Ryan Shazier, James Harrison, Mike Mitchell. Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN) Martavis Bryant's returnFinally, Martavis Bryant made it back onto the field on Sunday, playing his first NFL snaps in 19 months. The last time he played? January of 2016. , who was targeted by Steelers rookie quarterback on a quick screen on the first play from scrimmage. The two hooked up, but Bryant was tackled immediately and lost three yards. In the second quarter, Bryant carried the ball on a reverse, but he fumbled. The ball went out of bounds, though, so the Steelers retained po se sion of the football. A couple plays later, Bryant finally did something Charlie Mcavoy Women Jersey positive, making a tough catch down the sideline for a 24-yard gain. . is back in action!He connects on a 24-yard pa s from . NFL (@NFL) The Steelers are very clearly trying to get Bryant as involved as po sible.Jordan Reed activated off PUPGood news for the Redskins. Their tight end, Jordan Reed, is ready to play.On Sunday, off the physically unable to perform list. Reed landed on the PUP list on the eve of training camp due to a toe injury. Getting activated off PUP means he was cleared by doctors. That's great news. When healthy, Reed is one of the league's best pa s-catching tight ends. In 2015, when h
