NFL preseason 2022 Week 1 takeaways and schedule: QB Deshaun Watson returns to game action, QB Zach Wilson limps off

The first full week of the 2022 NFL preseason commenced on Thursday night, with the New England Patriots hosting the New York Giants and the Baltimore Ravens welcoming the Tennessee Titans to get the slate started.

Friday brought us a full five-game slate of games, beginning with a tilt between the Atlanta Falcons and Detroit Lions. The Falcons picked up a 27-23 win, as we got our first look at Falcons rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder, who played three quarters. We also saw fantasy football darling D'Andre Swift score a touchdown for the Lions.
