The Ryan Mallett showcase didn’t work as intended, but the backup quarterback wasn’t offered much help last night in the Patriots’ preseason opener against the Redskins, Jeff Howe of the Boston Herald reports.
Mallett only completed 5-of-12 passes for 55 yards as the Pats fell to the Redskins, 23-6, at FedEx Field. He was outdueled by fellow trade-bait backup Kirk Cousins, who was 9-of-13 for 103 yards and a touchdown and helped the Redskins build a 13-0 lead in the first half.
Rookie Jimmy Garoppolo’s surprisingly productive performance was particularly noticeable after Mallett’s struggles. The second-rounder completed 9-of-13 passes for 157 yards and a touchdown in his first NFL action, and wide receiver Brian Tyms had five receptions for 119 yards and the scoring grab.
