Aggies on the bubble see plenty of work in final preseason games

There are a number of former Texas A&M football players who are trying to work their way onto NFL 53-man rosters, and they had their final chance to impress over the weekend. Here are how some of them did.

LB Chris Russell: Had 5 tackles, including a tackle for loss, in Green Bay's 30-7 win over Baltimore. Fellow linebacker Edgerrin Cooper was held out of the game.

RB Trayveon Williams: 11 carries for 66 yards, 5 catches for 11 yards and one kickoff return in Cincinnati's 27-14 loss to Indianapolis.

CB Jaylon Jones: 1 tackle in limited time in Indianapolis' 27-14 win over Cincinnati.

Nickel Antonio Johnson: 1 tackle in limited time in Jacksonville's 31-0 win over Atlanta.

S Demani Richardson: 1 tackle in Carolina's 31-26 win over Buffalo.

DL Jayden Peevy: 3 tackles in Carolina's 31-26 win over Buffalo.

WR Ainias Smith: 6 catches for 36 yards, 1 punt return for 14 yards in Philadelphia's 26-3 loss to Minnesota.

P Braden Mann: 1 punt for 53 yards in Philadelphia's 26-3 loss to Minnesota.

DT DeMarvin Leal: 1 tackle, 1/2 sack in Pittsburgh's 24-17 loss to Detroit.

RB Isaiah Spiller: 3 carries, 1 yard and 1 fumble in the Chargers' 26-19 win over Dallas.

DB Josh DeBerry: 2 tackles, including a tackle for loss, in Dallas' 26-19 loss to the Chargers.

LB Tyrel Dodson: 1 tackle in limited playing time in Seattle's 37-33 win over Cleveland.

Buddy getting his shot?

In spite of a fine career with the Aggies, linebacker Buddy Johnson has struggled to stick with an NFL team since going pro in 2021. But he may be in a position to make the team this time around -- and "the team" is none other than his hometown Dallas Cowboys.

Johnson had 3 tackles and a pass defensed in the the Cowboys' 26-19 loss to the L.A. Chargers, but his performance over the course of the preseason has been good enough to move him from an afterthought to a real possibility to make the team. With the Cowboys having a couple of linebackers nursing or recovering from injuries, the numbers may break Buddy's way this time.

Final cuts to get to the initial 53-man roster will be made Tuesday, if not before.

Green takes back his old job

While the Houston Texans shocked the NFL with their rapid turnaround from a 3-13-1 team in 2022 to NFC South champions last year, Kenyon Green had to watch from the sideline. A shoulder injury last preseason knocked him out for the year, and some wondered if he would be able to take back his left guard spot upon his return.

Green put the doubters to rest, with a strong training camp. He didn't give up a pressure in the preseason and looked more familiar with the offense than he did in his rookie season two years ago. He didn't play in the Texans' 19-17 win over the L.A. Rams, a luxury usually afforded to certain starters.
