From the article

Mafah was the first one to rotate in. He saw a few handoffs before a Rashan Gary punchout saw him drop the ball only for rookie Caleb Downs to recover. Just like your coach in middle school would do if a player turned the ball over in practice, Mafah was subbed out.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Mafah's early fumble in camp practice cost him snaps in backup RB competition.

Competing for backup running back role behind Javonte Williams; was the first to rotate in during Day 1 of training camp but fumbled on a Rashan Gary punchout and was immediately subbed out, losing an early opportunity to make an impression.
