If anything, the rookies for the New York Jets are certainly bringing home the hardware and putting a big smile on the face of general manager Joe Douglas.
On the heels of rushing for 71 yards and a touchdown against the Buffalo Bills, running back Bam Knight won the Pepsi Zero Sugar Rookie of the Week award for Week 14.
That gives the Jets three straight wins and an incredible ten wins overall of the award this season. The Green Bay Packers are the only other team to have had players win the award in multiple weeks.
The other nominees for Week 14 were 49ers QB Brock Purdy, Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco, Texans safety Jalen Pitre, Jaguars DL Travon Walker and Patriots CB Marcus Jones.
