David Stefano: The second half JJ. The first three quarters seemed to shake off the rust after playing only 10 snaps in preseason game 1. Kevin O'Connell follows the Sean McVay philosophy of bubble-wrapping starters during the preseason, which risks a slow start. JJ might be a bit tired, though, after being with his fiancée for the birth of their son last night. He was still at practice Friday.
