Adrian Martinez News
Friday, August 21, 12:57 AM
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Adrian Martinez captained the team's offense in the second half of Thursday's preseason clash with the Los Angeles Chargers. Martinez went 8-for-17 for 57 passing yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions, and added 10 more yards and another touchdown on four scrambles in the 41-17 win. Martinez got off to an inauspicious start, going three-and-out in his first series and throwing a pick-six in his second. Martinez righted the ship on the 49ers' next possession, leading a 14-play drive that culminated in a Khalil Herbert touchdown. Martinez himself ran in for a score on the following drive, and hit Jordan Watkins for a 17-yard score on the possession after that. With Brock Purdy and Mac Jones firmly positioned ahead of him on the depth chart, the best Martinez can hope for is a solid showing in the 49ers' preseason finale on August 27 to retain his third-string role.

Joe Milton III News
Sunday, August 16, 12:35 PM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton III kept himself firmly in the mix for the No. 2 job with a strong second half in Saturday's 17-7 preseason win over the Seattle Seahawks. Milton completed 12 of 15 passes for 107 yards and a touchdown, finishing with a 118.6 passer rating and no interceptions. He came out sharp after halftime, completing five of his first six throws for 62 yards on an 84-yard touchdown drive. That possession ended with Milton finding rookie Camden Brown for a two-yard score in the back corner of the end zone. Sam Howell had a good night too, going 8-for-12 for 94 yards and a touchdown in the first half. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said both quarterbacks handled Seattle's pressure well and protected the football. Dallas listed Milton or Howell behind Dak Prescott on its first unofficial depth chart, and Saturday did little to separate them. Milton did what he needed to do to keep the competition going.
