Top 10 rookie debuts of the 2022 NFL season: Drake London, Dominique Robinson stand out (6.  Malcolm Rodriguez - KEY WEEK 1 METRICS:  44 defensive snaps, 6 tackles (13.6 tackle percentage), 5 defensive stops (third among rookies), 2 run stuffs (most among rookies).  WEEK 1 OVERALL SCORE: 67.  Rodriguez was all over the field against the Eagles, securing five defensive stops, which are tackles on plays that were successful for the defense. Rodriguez paced rookies in run stuffs (which are run plays in which the ball-carrier is stopped with a gain of 1 or fewer yards), including this clutch solo stop of Boston Scott on a third-and-1, when the Eagles were trying to run out the clock. The Hard Knocks standout earned a starting role on your TV this summer, and his Week 1 performance -- Detroit head coach Dan Campbell told the media that the player known as "Rodrigo" did not miss a single assignment in Week 1 -- suggests he might be there to stay.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/top-10-rookie-debuts-of-the-2022-nfl-season-drake-london-dominique-robinson-stan

Agent's Take: 2022 ultimate 53-man roster features Tom Brady and offensive playmakers all over the field (P: Jack Fox, Lions ($904,440):  Fox was second in the NFL in gross punting last season with a 49.2 yard average. He earned Pro Bowl honors in 2020. :  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/agents-take-2022-ultimate-53-man-roster-features-tom-brady-and-offensive-playmakers-all-over-the-field/

Which Week 1 losers should we panic about? Definitely Cowboys, but who else? (Maybe some misplaced hype: Carolina Panthers, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars - Each of those teams spent some time this offseason getting hyped up as a potential breakout. Some cold water was poured on each of them. The Lions are probably the team to worry about least, because there's not a lot of shame in losing to the Eagles. Giving up 38 points wasn't ideal though. These teams should be OK, but Sunday was a reminder that the offseason is long, and we talk ourselves into breakouts when we probably should know better. They should all be moderately competitive, but just lower expectations.):  https://sports.yahoo.com/which-week-1-losers-should-we-panic-about-definitely-cowboys-but-who-else-194821102.html
