Jaret Patterson is making the most of his preseason opportunities

For the second week in a row, Jaret Patterson, who hails from Glen Dale, Maryland, and who went to high school with Chase Young, grabbed attention in a preseason game. In the first week, against the Patriots, Patterson rushed for 40 yards and added 30 receiving yards. This week, against the Bengals, he upped the ante, going for 71 yards and a touchdown on the ground, and 3 receptions for 25 yards in the passing game. His 4.4 yards per carry rushing average and 8.3 yards per reception receiving average are likely to catch the attention of the coaching staff.
