Ryan Fitzpatrick has been in the NFL long enough http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/geoff-swaim-jersey-cheap , and been with so many different teams,here in a different uniform.Coming back to Tennessee is a bit easier thanks to such a short stint with the Titans."When I was here, it was such a blur because really it was just a year," Fitzpatrick said. "I'd just got released from Buffalo and was only here for a quick time. So they've done a really nice job with it. It's almost unrecognizable with some of the stuff and how it's changed so quickly."Fitzpatrick went 3-6 filling in for Jake Locker in 2013. That was three coaches and a handful of quarterbacks ago for Tennessee with Fitzpatrick with his third team since then.Making the return visit more enjoyable is Fitzpatrick is expected to start a second straight preseason game Saturday night for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.Tampa Bay will be without Jameis Winston for the first three games of the season, suspended after the NFL investigated an allegation Winston groped a female Uber driver in Arizona in March 2016.Tennessee will start Marcus Mariota, the quarterback drafted No. 2 overall in 2015 after Tampa Bay selected Winston.

He could get a little more time against Houston after two days of joint practices with the Texans showing him a different style of defense than he usually sees in practice."I think it was good. A lot of different looks that we're not used to getting," he said. "They run a different defense than what we're used to so it got our guys thinking and I think we handled it very well."Houston star receiver DeAndre Hopkins missed most of the first of two practices with the 49ers after being kicked out for his role in a scuffle with Jimmie Ward. In his return, he reveled in competing against four-time Pro Bowler Richard Sherman and hopes to get more work in against him Saturday night."It's always good to up against a veteran guy because he can tell your weaknesses Cheap Tyron Smith Jersey , he's going to tell you after what you need to work on," Hopkins said. "So, going up against guys like that, it helps me stay on top of my game."HOLDOUT BOWLWhen the Raiders return to their old home at the L.A. Coliseum for the first time in nearly 24 years to face the Rams in an exhibition game, both teams will have key pieces missing.Oakland edge rusher Khalil Mack and Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald, the winners of the past two AP Defensive Player of the Year awards, both are staging contract holdouts as they seek lucrative long-term deals.That gives both teams opportunities to see what kind of pass rush they can get without the two stars.

Kirk Cousins watched that one from home, in awe and disbelief like everyone else, not yet knowing Minnesota was the place he would wind up.Now Cousins, who signed a three-year, $84 million, fully guaranteed contract, will put on his new purple jersey in front of Minnesota's fans for the first time. He is expected to play more than one series after being perfect in the Vikings' exhibition opener last week at Denver."The little bit I've been there, it's a great facility," Cousins said. "I'm just so excited to hear the crowd and go through warmups and just get a feel for the game-day dynamic. I'm sure it's going to be second to none in the NFL."LEFT BEHINDThe Jaguars will be without both cornerback Jalen Ramsey and defensive end Dante Fowler in Minnesota. Both were left at home for disciplinary reasons following a scrap between Fowler and defensive end Yannick Ngakoue.

Chad Kelly gets a shot at the job against Chicago as the new No. 2 after leapfrogging ineffective Paxton Lynch this week.Kelly was the final player selected in the 2017 draft and sat out his rookie season while recovering from wrist and knee surgeries. He lost weight and had a terrific offseason, then threw for 177 yards and two touchdowns in mop-up duty against the Vikings last week, his first game in more than 640 days.
