Stars of the week

Cameron Sutton – DB – Pittsburgh Steelers

He’s been starting for the Steelers all year, and Cam Sutton finally made the big play in this one. Sutton was actually solid throughout the game, finishing with three tackles, one of which was solo, and two pass deflections. However, what he did at the end of the game is what puts him in our stars of the week category.

With Vegas trailing 13-10 against the Steelers, their offense had one final chance to make a play. Sutton stepped in and picked off a pass Derek Carr intended for Hunter Renfrow. That secured the Pittsburgh victory and made Sutton the hero, so he had a complete performance.

Alvin Kamara – RB – New Orleans Saints

This is the Alvin Kamara Tennessee football knows. Okay, so his averages weren’t great, as he had just like 76 yards on 20 carries. However, he also had a touchdown run, and he added two catches for 34 yards. When you’re able to gain 120 total yards from scrimmage while picking up a score, you had a great week. He helped the New Orleans Saints beat the Cleveland Browns 17-10.

Darrell Taylor – LB – Seattle Seahawks

Returning to form, Darrell Taylor didn’t even play the majority of snaps for the Seattle Seahawks in their 24-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. However, he was still a big-play edge rusher, finishing with four tackles, three of which were solo, and most notably, a sack.
