What happened: The No. 1 pick entered after earning recent first-team reps. He finished the night 10-of-16 for 97 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions.
Why it matters: The outing followed a second-team start to camp and gave Mendoza his first NFL game action. His push for an early opportunity now has a preseason performance behind it.
By the numbers: Mendoza completed 62.5% of his first-half attempts, averaging 5.9 yards per attempt and 9.4 yards per completion.
What to watch: His workload and place in the quarterback rotation will be the next preseason checkpoints.
