For the past two weeks of preseason games from the NFL, there has been a lot of second and third team work from each teams as the starters – including former FSU football stars like Jameis Winston, Dalvin Cook and more have played the first quarter at the most and then watched the rest of the game from the sideline.
With week three just around the corner, the real football is here. Traditionally, the third preseason game of the year is the one that teams treat the most like a real game. Starters for each team will, for the most part, play at least three quarters if not longer and you will actually see football that closely resembles what will be played come the first weekend of the regular season in September.
