Watson, who issued a public apology to the women who have
accused him of sexual assault and harassment in an interview
that was aired prior to the game, completed just 1 of 5 passes
for seven yards.
Travis Etienne appeared in a game for the Jaguars for the first
time after missing the entirety of his rookie season with a foot
injury. He rushed for 23 yards on nine carries and added one
reception for 10 yards.
Jets 24, Eagles 21
Second-year quarterback Zach Wilson completed just three passes
for 23 yards and threw an interception before exiting in the
first quarter with a knee injury as visiting New York edged
Philadelphia.
Mike White took over for Wilson, but Chris Streveler ended up
the hero, throwing for two touchdowns, including a 5-yard,
game-winning strike to Calvin Jackson Jr. with 16 seconds left
to play. Jalen Hurts completed all six of his pass attempts,
throwing for 80 yards and a touchdown for the Eagles.
Cardinals 36, Bengals 23
Trace McSorely threw for 163 yards and a touchdown, and running
back Jonathan Ward rushed for two scores to lead Arizona to a
victory over host Cincinnati.
The Cardinals dominated the first 45 minutes of action, carrying
a 36-9 lead into the final quarter.
Running back Jacques Patrick found the end zone from the 1-yard
line, and an 11-play, 94-yard drive was capped off by 25-yard
touchdown reception by Kendric Pryor in the fourth, but it
wasn't nearly enough to get the Bengals back in contention.
49ers 28, Packers 21
Trey Lance completed 4 of 5 passes for 92 yards and a touchdown
to help San Francisco defeat Jordan Love and Green Bay in Santa
Clara, Calif.
Love went for 176 yards on 13-for-24 passing and two touchdowns,
but he struggled to solve the 49ers' secondary, throwing three
interceptions.
Packers receiver B.J. Baylor turned heads, though, taking a
catch and run 68 yards to the San Francisco 15-yard line. Three
different receivers tallied touchdowns for the Niners.
Falcons 27, Lions 23
Marcus Mariota attempted just two passes but managed to notch a
rushing touchdown, and visiting Atlanta found the end zone with
1:30 left to play to squeak past Detroit.
The Falcons, however, lost wide receiver Drake London to a knee
injury on their first drive of the game. The 2022 first-round
pick had one catch for 24 yards.
Running back D'Andre Swift averaged five yards on four carries
and found the end zone once for the Lions.
