Here’s how former Liberty players fared this past week in NFL preseason games.

QB MALIK WILLIS

In the second preseason game for the Titans, Willis got the start at quarterback. He completed 12 of 16 passes for 116 yards, 0 touchdowns, and 1 interception. He also rushed 4 times for 30 yards as the Titans beat the Seahawks, 16-15. Willis continues to battle with veteran QB Mason Rudolph for the backup QB spot in Nashville.

WR DEMARIO DOUGLAS

Douglas was drafted in the 6th round of the 2023 NFL draft by the New England Patriots, and he immediately asserted himself as one of the top receivers for New England. Douglas, who will now wear #3 for the Patriots like he did at Liberty, will look to secure his starting spot for New England during the preseason. Douglas had 49 receptions for 561 yards and rushed 8 times for 41 yards in his rookie season last year.

After not playing in the week 1 preseason game, Douglas played briefly this past Thursday night against the Eagles. He had 2 targets, caught one pass for one yard as the Patriots were taking longer looks at some of their other receivers.

DE DURRELL JOHNSON

Johnson was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Dallas Cowboys following the 2023 draft. He will be looking to turn heads and grab the attention of his team executives during training camp and this preseason and perhaps crack the 53-man roster for the first time in his career. He had one tackle and one pass deflection against the Raiders in his second preseason game of the season.

LB STOREY JACKSON

After spending this past season as a member of the UFL’s Arlington Renegades, Jackson was signed by the Falcons last week. He had 41 tackles and 2 TFLs with Arlington while also making an impact on special teams. Now, he’s hoping to make an impact in the NFL and stick around with the Falcons for a little while. Jackson did not record any stats in the preseason game against the Ravens on Saturday.
