Kisean Johnson caught four passes for 52 yards, including the game-winning touchdown. J. Michael Sturdivant performed well with six catches for 112 yards and a touchdown, while Will Sheppard contributed with three catches and an 81-yard punt return for a touchdown. Isaiah Neyor had ten catches for 100 yards throughout the preseason. The outcome of the game was less significant as the focus was on which receivers might secure a spot on the final roster.
