Los Angeles Rams getting their rookies on the field: The Rams' first-year players combined to play 710 snaps in the first week of the preseason, the most of any team. 

• Texans seeing what they have: The Houston Texans‘ rookies combined for just 215 snaps, the least of any team. 

• Highest-graded rookie so far: Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Eli Ricks made a big impact against the Ravens in Week 1. He allowed only one reception — and it was one that he nearly broke up — on 11 coverage snaps for seven yards. He also got his hands on two passes.
