Iowa State’s roster of former players in the NFL closed the preseason out on a high note.
*** Brock Purdy led the San Francisco 49ers in a stout performance Thursday against Houston. The quarterback ended the game with a team-high 182 yards on a 13-20 completion rate. He made some impressive throws, too.
***Enyi Uwazurike stood out for Denver and earned a game ball from SI’s Broncos site. Uwazurike recorded two tackles in the game but had a sack taken off the stat sheet after a penalty overturned it. In the same game, Kene Nwangwu earned 14 yards on four carries in limited time on the field.

***Breece Hall was again limited in his carries for the New York Jets, putting through 13 yards on five attempts in the team’s loss to the Giants.
***Mike Rose recorded four tackles for the Kansas City Chiefs in a 17-10 win over Green Bay. Allen Lazard did not play.
