Daniel Jones, meanwhile, continued to shine despite seemingly being firmly entrenched behind Eli Manning in New York.Below you can relive all the top action, highlights and headlines from Thursday's Week 3 action.In addition, you can view the entire schedule for Week 3 of the preseason.

After an offseason spent recovering from shoulder surgery, which followed a 2018 season plagued by an ailing arm, the former NFL MVP was forced out of Thursday's game against the Patriots after suffering a separate injury to his foot. New England kept the blitzes coming on Newton early in the exhibition action, and the team announced shortly after his departure that he would not return. Newton was later seen exiting Carolina's locker room in a walking boot, but the QB's injury does not appear "serious." Daniel Jones delivers another efficient outing"Danny Dimes" came into Week 3 of the preseason as the Giants' biggest star (imagine telling people that in April), and while his counterpart, Eli Manning, made the highlight reel for an attempted run block (yes, for real; see below), it'll be hard not to keep talking up the first-round rookie Brad Hand Jersey after yet another efficient showing on Thursday night. While Jones didn't throw a touchdown against the Bengals, he completed all but two of his 11 pa ses on the evening, finishing with 141 yards and some nice touch on some of his deeper balls. Brb adding this to his highlight reel | New York Giants (@Giants) Eli has been nearly as effective numbers-wise over Tony Gwynn Jersey the course of preseason, but Jones has gotten the job done more often and in surprisingly poised fashion. How soon until Giants fans start calling for his name?Rashan Gary carted off in Canada; reportedly 'fine'Hours after the Raiders and Packers agreed to play with 80 yards of field in Winnipeg due to concerns over the turf conditions at IG Field, one of Green Bay's top rookies got a scare. Linebacker Rashan Gary was carted off the field and into the locker room after colliding with another player in the second quarter of Thursday's game, becoming the third Packer to be removed from the matchup with an injury. Gary had previously been battling a shoulder ailment and had limped off the field earlier in the game, but Green Bay all but acknowledged concerns about the field's safety prior to the start of the game by sitting 33 different players. Luckily, , the pa s rusher is now "fine and doing well." Josh McCown comes in hot out of retirementA week ago, the 40-year-old former New York Jets backup was retired. On Thursday night, McCown was changing calls at the line and leading a handful of second-half scoring drives for the Eagles. Summoned off the street after Philly lost Carson Wentz's new backup, Nate Sudfeld, to a broken wrist, the journeyman looked right at home at Lincoln Financial Field, following up just three practices on Doug Pederson's squad with a big -- and productive -- dose of action against Baltimore. Helping the Eagles cut a three-score deficit to 11 points in the third quarter, he opened 17 of 24 for 192 yards and a pair of touchdowns -- with rookie wideout Randy Jones Jersey J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (104 yards) a favorite target. Josh McCown is out here putting on a clinic! | Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) Trace McSorley carves up Eagles defenseLamar Jackson did not suit up for Thursday's "dre s rehearsal" in Philadelphia, but the Ravens hardly took a step back at quarterback, where sixth-round rookie and former Penn State standout Trace McSorley led Baltimore to a 26-0 first-half lead against the Eagles. Twelve Philly penalties certainly aided the Ravens' efforts, but the 6-foot first-year signal-caller looked calm as could be on the Lincoln Financial Field gra s, finishing the first two quarters 16 of 24 for 203 yards and two well-thrown touchdowns, including a perfectly lobbed deep ball to Michael Floyd. That TD pa s from to was a thing of beauty. Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) McSorley was reportedly nowhere near as effective against the Eagles' defense during this week's joint training camp practices, so his Thursday night performance should be a confidence booster -- even if it came against mostly backups. Packers, Raiders playing on an 80-yard fieldPlaying a special preseason game with the Packers acro s the border, the Raiders expre sed concern over the field conditions at Winnipeg's IG Field on Thursday night, and as a result, Oakland and Green Bay agreed to . The concerns stemmed from the stadium's recent relocation of Canadian Football League goalposts, , and prompted both sides to forgo kickoffs in favor of starting po se sions at the 25-yard line.Eli closes out preseason with ... a block? has been the talk of New York this preseason, dropping dimes after an offseason in which his arrival at No. 6 overall in the 2019 draft was widely ridiculed. But closed out his preseason work trying to steal the spotlight -- in the running game. The longtime Giants starter went 4 for 8 through the air to finish 9 of 13 this preseason, but his Week 3 vs. the Bengals will most be remembered for the block -- or attempt at a block -- he pulled off during a carry.
