In a preseason riddled with poor performances and injuries, the Cleveland Browns can now turn their attention towards the start of the regular season.
Despite losing 37-33 against the Seattle Seahawks on the road in a late night matchup, this was the best preseason performance for the Browns.
Here are three players who deserve recognition as stars of the game.
Huntley saved his best for last in the preseason finale. The former Baltimore Ravens quarterback went 17 of 22 for 146 yards and three touchdowns.
This bodes very well from a Browns perspective for a few reasons. If the organization decides to keep him on the roster, then this is proof that Huntley still has the skills to be a quality backup and provide valuable depth. An even more likely scenario is that Huntley could have just increased his trade value.
If the Browns do decide to proceed with Deshaun Watson, Jameis Winston and Dorian Thompson-Robinson, the thought would likely be that Cleveland will hope to get something in return for Huntley instead of just releasing him.
Woods finds himself among a group of wide receivers battling for the final roster spots in the room. He made a strong case for himself on the night with five receptions for 53 yards and two touchdowns.
Amari Cooper, Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore are the obvious locks as the top three wide receivers. After that, Cedric Tillman is likely safe and despite being out injured for a bit, Kevin Stefanski stated that David Bell was having a strong training camp and preseason.
Assuming that the organization keeps six receivers on the 53-man roster, Jamari Thrash and Woods are likely the two going head to head for the final spot. Although Thrash likely has the advantage as a rookie with several strong performances in a row, perhaps Woods just opened up room for another conversation.
Could you keep seven receivers and go with two tight ends on the 53-man roster?
Diabate shined last year in the preseason as a rookie. Now in his second year, the linebacker continues to impress.
On Saturday night, Diabate tallied three tackles and one sack against the Seahawks.
He should be an asset on special teams in kick coverage this year, but could also be the fifth or sixth linebacker on the roster.
A “possible cyberattack” led to a series of delays at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) as the Port of Seattle dealt with an “internet and web systems outage” Saturday.
In a statement, the international airport announced that the outages began on Saturday morning, which stemmed from a “possible cyberattack” at the Port of Seattle.
“Earlier this morning, the Port of Seattle experienced certain system outages indicating a possible cyberattack,” authorities said. “The Port isolated critical systems and is in the process of working to restore full service.”
On Saturday, as of 8 p.m. ET, 247 flights had been delayed and six had been canceled at the airport, according to FlightAware.
The airport noted that it does not have an estimated time for returning to full operational capacity, but is working with authorities and partners to help travelers whose itineraries were impacted by the outage.
“We are working closely with appropriate authorities and partners to help travelers who may be impacted. If you are traveling today, please check with our airline partners for travel information and allow extra time to get to SEA and to your gate,” the airport said. “To help get through the airport easier, get your mobile boarding pass for your flight and any checked baggage through the airline apps before you get to SEA.”
Transportation authorities also urged passengers traveling at the airport to check in with their airlines for latest information related to their flights.
They said the outages are impacting some systems at the airport.
The Federal Aviation Administration declined to provide a comment on the delays, referring FOX Business to SEA authorities.

Seattle Mariners stars and team leaders J.P. Crawford and Julio Rodriguez spoke on Friday about the team’s decision to fire longtime manager Scott Servais after eight-plus years.
From Crawford’s perspective, per Curtis Crabtree of FOX 13 Seattle:
J.P. Crawford on Scott Servais: “It was tough. He’s been my manager ever since my first day here and he challenged me to be the best person I could be. Sad to see him go.”

Under Servais, Crawford reached great heights, so it’s understandable why he has such an affinity for him. After being acquired in a trade with the Philadelphia Phillies, Crawford won a Gold Glove Award in 2020. He also helped the Mariners get back to the playoffs in 2022, having a crucial hit in an AL Wild Card Series win over the Toronto Blue Jays.
Furthermore, Crawford earned a five-year contract worth $51 million under Servais’s helm. He’s under contract through 2026.
As for Rodriguez, Servais is the only big-league manager he’s ever played for (until Friday night).
As for Rodriguez, the following comes fron Daniel Kramer of MLB.com:
Julio Rodríguez on the Mariners’ managerial change:
“I’m just focused on playing baseball. Those decisions are outside the players. That’s obviously higher up. We’re employees here, just like everybody is, so we’ve just got to show up and play baseball.”

Rodriguez was back in center field on Friday night for the first time since injuring his ankle on July 21. He went 0-for-3 at the plate with two walks and made an outstanding catch in the top of the tenth inning to keep the game tied. The Mariners eventually won it 6-5 in the bottom half.
They’ll play the Giants again on Saturday at 1:10 p.m. PT.
