Alex Cooper contributed in the trenches in a 26-21 loss to the Jaguars. Cooper, who was part of the 2015 Houston championship team, looks to compete for a spot on the final roster along the Bengals offensive line.
Kenneth Farrow sat out his second straight game with a minor injury as San Diego fell 23-10 to Minnesota. With the Chargers losing No. 3 running back Branden Oliver for the year with a season-ending injury, Farrow will have the chance to make his case for the position. Read more about Farrow here.
