On Sunday, we watched rookies take over games.
Against the Saints, Lions tight end Sam LaPorta refused to be stopped, putting together the best game of his young career. In a win over the Commanders, Dolphins RB De’Von Achane proved once more he might end up being the best back of this class, finding the end zone twice.
Then there was the weekly stardom by C.J. Stroud, who led the Texans to a win over the Broncos, bringing Houston’s record to 7–5.
