Mullens was arguably the most encouraging story of the preseason game through the first half, completing six of his first seven attempts for 65 yards with a 9.3 yards-per-reception average; his improvement from Week 1 to Week 2 in early-drive efficiency was notable with zero turnovers, red-zone efficiency, and quality performance against much of the Panthers' starting defense, establishing a working partnership with rookies Josh Cameron and CJ Williams.PositiveUsageAug 22, 2026
Mullens completed six of seven passes for 65 yards on Jacksonville's opening possession, demonstrating encouraging early work with young receivers before Carter Bradley took over and struggled; Mullens' efficient start was part of Jacksonville's reasonable offensive beginning that failed to translate into touchdowns.PositiveProjectionAug 22, 2026

Backup quarterback had a day to forget on Saturday, following an offseason of fan and media discontent with the Jacksonville backup quarterback role. As a backup quarterback, Mullens' primary role on the team is to be an asset to the quarterback room in learning the playbook, while leveraging his experience and knowledge of the system to protect the football and keep the wheels from falling off. Mullens consistently struggled to hit open receivers, throwing an early red zone interception where Josh Cameron looked to be wide open on the play. Mullens seemed not to notice the underneath defender on the play, both underthrowing the attempt and placing it behind the intended receiver. He later took a third-down sack, where it seemed the veteran quarterback struggled to pull the trigger on the available options. Final line: red-zone interception, a sack given up, 3/7 for 33 yards (17.9 passer rating) against primarily Saints' backups.NegativeRoleAug 16, 2026
