DeShone Kizer shines in Thursday's preseason game versus Steelers

by Brad Richter | Thu, Aug 16th 11:37pm EDT

DeShone Kizer went 7-of-12 for 149 yards with two TD passes in the 51-34 win over the Steelers. Kizer threw a nice back shoulder fade to backup TE Robert Tonyan in the second quarter and hit WR Jake Kumerow on an out pattern that Kumerow took to the house for 82 yards in the third quarter. Kizer added two carries for four yards.

Fantasy Impact:

Kizer remains in a battle with incumbent backup QB Brett Hundley for the spot behind Aaron Rodgers. Kizer made strides to claim that spot on Thursday, although Hundley also held his own engineering a TD drive.
