Cam Little’s 70-yard heave before halftime was an unforgettable preseason moment, even if it won’t count as an official NFL record. Jacksonville’s kicker teased a miracle, while Pittsburgh’s 31-25 win over the Jaguars underscored early depth testing for both teams. The top rookies on each side—Kaleb Johnson for Jacksonville and Bhayshul Tuten for Pittsburgh—took meaningful looks, and Travis Hunter’s two-way NFL debut drew attention to versatility at the next level. Juan Thornhill showed up early for Pittsburgh, laying a impact-filled, catch-free 12-snap performance in coverage that mattered in the late stages of the game. PFF’s postgame grades and snapshots will refine these first impressions come tomorrow afternoon.

From a fantasy lens, Thornhill’s debut boosts the Steelers’ defensive ceiling and could translate into more turnovers and plays for the secondary. Johnson’s early usage signals potential for a breakout right Now, while Tuten’s role hints at Pittsburgh’s backfield depth battles continuing into August. Little’s leg offered a tantalizing Keenum-like flare—unreliable for immediate fantasy value, but a reminder that unusual, long-range kicks can influence late-game scoring in the preseason. The box score and red-zone efficiency paint a picture of a Steelers offense with momentum and a Jaguars squad experimenting with rookies and depth, setting a few intriguing watch-list names for late drafts and dynasty rosters.
