NFL preseason games typically aren't very compelling, but there's a must-watch preseason game this week if you're a Tennessee Vols fan.
On Thursday night, the New York Giants will host the Detroit Lions. And a couple of former Vols are expected to see a significant amount of playing time.
Lions head coach Dan Campbell told reporters on Tuesday that starting quarterback Jared Goff likely won't play against the Giants, which paves the way for former Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker to see extended action.
Hooker is battling with Nate Sudfeld for the No. 2 quarterback job in Detroit. Preseason action will go a long way in determining who wins that battle.
On the other sideline on Thursday night will be Hooker's former teammate at Tennessee, Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt.
Hyatt and Hooker played together for two seasons at Tennessee.
Hyatt's having a solid training camp with the Giants and appears poised to be a big part of New York's offense in 2024. He should see plenty of action in the Giants' preseason game against the Lions on Thursday.
The Giants and the Lions will kick off at 7:00 PM ET on Thursday night.
