2025 NFL Preseason Week 3: Key Takeaways and Roster Predictions
Explore the key highlights and roster predictions from the third week of the 2025 NFL preseason, focusing on team performances and player evaluations.

Giants vs. Patriots: A Showcase of Emerging Talent
The Giants dominated the Patriots with a 42-10 victory, showcasing the depth of their roster. Cornerback Art Green made a strong case for securing his spot with five tackles in the first half. Defensive tackle D.J. Davidson also impressed by batting a pass and forcing a hold near the goal line. Quarterback Tommy DeVito, despite his stellar performance completing 15 of his first 17 passes and throwing a touchdown on each of his first three drives, is likely to be the odd man out in the Giants' quarterback room.
Patriots' Kicker Competition
The Patriots focused on evaluating their kickers, with rookie Andy Borregales and Parker Romo vying for the spot. Borregales missed a 49-yard field goal but later hit a 30-yarder and a point after attempt. Romo did not get a chance to kick, keeping the competition tight.
Steelers' Defensive Concerns
The Steelers faced a setback with rookie first-rounder Derrick Harmon suffering a knee injury, which could lead them to seek a veteran addition. The Panthers, on the other hand, might be considering trades for veteran receivers Hunter Renfrow and David Moore.
Upcoming Games
Friday and Saturday will feature a full slate of games, including the Eagles at Jets and the Ravens at Commanders, providing more opportunities for teams to finalize their rosters before the deadline.
