Rivera said the starters will play 15 to 20 plays this Saturday against the Carolina Panthers: "You want to see some consistency out there."

Ron Rivera’s plan at QB for preseason game No. 1 vs. Carolina:
— Ethan Cadeaux (@Ethan_Cadeaux) August 11, 2022
1. Carson Wentz will start, said he wants starters to play 15-20 plays.
2. Taylor Heinicke will come in next, play probably into the third quarter.
3. Sam Howell will come in and finish the game.
Rivera said WR Curtis Samuel will play Saturday.

Ron Rivera said starters will play 15-20 snaps Saturday vs. the Panthers. His hope is they get a lot of situational in, like 3rd downs, red zone, etc.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) August 11, 2022
Not all starters will play. Chase Roullier (ankle) will not. Curtis Samuel will.
RB JD McKissic back in practice today. WR Curtis Samuel working too. TE group down to 4 again: Reyes, Wolf, Hodges and Rogers.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 11, 2022
OT Cornelius Lucas (non-football illness) remains sidelined but Ron Rivera said he's begun doing more work on the side field. Said he hopes Lucas will "be back on the field shortly."

I was concerned about Curtis Samuel based off reports. But after seeing him last Saturday in action, I have no concerns. IDC what they do to keep him fresh. That's a dangerous cat and he's ready.

As much as I love Kerrigan & I do…unfortunately he became known as bull rushing & getting pushed to the outside. Exactly what I saw happen to Young & Sweat last season. Not what they need IMO. #HTTC https://t.co/CJ1qqDaU9d

(wasn't quite that simple with CY, but something coaches want to fix)... key for any coach is communication. Just playing doesn't make you a good coach; but if the only criteria for a coach was "how great a player was he?" then a lot of guys would be gone. With RK? We'll see.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 11, 2022
He has a lot of wisdom to share. Becoming a good coach takes time, but the ends respect him and his work and know how hard it is to record the sack total he did. Takes a lot of work and study.

After today's practice, I asked Carson about the "inaccuracies" during training camp. pic.twitter.com/WZOKqmuHWN
— Scott Abraham (@Scott7news) August 11, 2022
I think it’s so funny that we have no idea how good or bad Carson Wentz has looked during training camp. He’s either thrown high & 100 interceptions and looks terrible OR he’s looked amazing and clearly like the best player on the field let alone QB on the field lol
— Damien Bartonek (@DABartonek) August 11, 2022
I guess but honestly it’s a little disappointing that we see such inconsistent reports about his play. Especially from those that are actually there, it makes you wonder what is causing such a difference in opinion between everybody
— Damien Bartonek (@DABartonek) August 11, 2022
Wentz has the most to lose*
— COMMANDERS FOOTBALL (@HogsHaven) August 11, 2022
Danny Dimes has the most to prove

The punt returner battle seemingly is between Dax Milne and Alex Erickson based on practice usage. That said, Rivera added, "Don't discount the opportunity to use Jahan (Dotson) as well."

Way doesn't give out secrets to other punters. "If they want to figure it out they can watch film like I did & try to steal some stuff." At the Pro Bowl following the '19 season Way signed P Brett Kearn's jersey "Hey Brett thanks for your drop; I stole it and made the Pro Bowl."
