Drew Allar has never looked better. Calm in the pocket. Working through progressions. Reading with his feet. 10/13 for Via @RGIII on X

What happened: Two scores came through the air, with the third coming on the ground. Allar stayed calm in the pocket and worked through his progressions.

Why it matters: It was Allar's first NFL preseason appearance, giving evaluators an early data point on his readiness. The setting limits conclusions, but the efficient start strengthens his case for an immediate role.

By the numbers: Allar completed 76.9% of his attempts and averaged 11.8 yards per pass attempt, producing a touchdown on three of his 13 throws or runs that scored.

What to watch: His next preseason appearance will test whether the pocket poise and efficient decision-making hold up over more snaps.
