News and Notes from week one of the NFL 2012 Preseason.

The No. 1 overall draft pick threw his first NFL pass for a long touchdown, just like Peyton Manning in 1998, then led Indianapolis to two more touchdowns. Andrew Luck one-upped his predecessor by winning Sunday’s preseason opener 38-3 over St. Louis — Indy’s first preseason-opening win since 1994.

The Miami Dolphins terminate the six-time Pro Bowl receiver’s contract 24 hours after he was arrested in a domestic battery case involving his wife.

Free agent receiver Plaxico Burress was headed to New England on Sunday to work out for the Patriots and while coach Bill Belichick would not confirm the tryout, he indicated that taking a look at a high-profile veteran such as Burress would be business as usual.

The Green Bay Packers have signed veteran Cedric Benson to a one-year deal. Benson, 29, spent the past four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, rushing for more than 1,000 yards each of the past three years.
