The Pittsburgh Steelers concluded their preseason with a 24-17 loss to the Detroit Lions, finishing with an 0-3 record. Quarterback Wilson showed potential despite limited snaps, while Patterson's impressive 31-yard touchdown run may secure his spot on the roster. Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills fell 31-26 to the Carolina Panthers, focusing on evaluating their roster depth due to resting key starters. In a disappointing finale, the Philadelphia Eagles were defeated 26-3 by the Minnesota Vikings, but rookie WR Ainias Smith and LB Ben VanSumeren made notable strides, possibly earning roster spots. The Eagles finished their preseason at 2-1 and face final cuts before the regular season opener against the Packers on September 6.
