The USA TODAY NFL staff on things that surprised them this preseason:
JARRETT BELL
*Less dress. It struck me that there were fewer starters around the NFL risked with extensive playing time in the third preseason game, which is typically the "dress rehearsal." Packers star Aaron Rodgers, for example, didn't play a single snap last weekend. No doubt he doesn't need another preseason snap.
*RGIII losing starting job while "concussed." All offseason, Jay Gruden declared that Robert Griffin was his starter. The manner in which he lost his job — idled while undergoing concussion protocol — is even more stunning than the fact he was benched for Kirk Cousins.
