While Dak Prescott’s final stat line — fewer than 200 passing yards — looks modest, drops from his receivers left plenty of production on the field. His 86.1 PFF passing grade reflects that. With four big-time throws, Prescott tied for second in the NFL in that category in Week 1.
Colts rookie tight end Tyler Warren delivered an impressive all-around performance in his NFL debut. His 90.4 overall PFF grade ranked second among all tight ends in Week 1. He caught seven of his nine targets for 76 yards and added value as a run blocker, earning an 88.6 grade.
