Lutheran-Illinois State-Jacksonville Jaguars RB James Robinson
The Jaguars had a rough game over the weekend but to be fair it was against one of the best teams in the NFL. The undefeated Steelers dominated the game from the start cruising by the Jags 27-3. James Robinson had all 17 carriers for his team finishing the game with 73 rushing yards while also catching the ball twice for 21 yards. After finishing Sunday’s game with 94 total yards from Scrimmage Robinson surpassed a milestone that only a few have ever achieved in the NFL. The Pro Football Hall of Fame made a tweet congratulating the rookie RB for surpassing over 1,000 total yards from scrimmage on the season to become the 5th undrafted rookie in the common-draft era to ever do so. James Robinson now has over 1,000 total yards from scrimmage in just 10 games played! Huge congratulations to James Robinson!!
Boylan-Wisconsin-Platteville-New Orleans Saints-Arizona Cardinals TE Dan Arnold
Thursday night on National TV the former local standout had a big impact in the Cardinals pivotal game vs the Seahawks. Dan Arnold caught a 4 yard touchdown strike in the back of the endzone to secure his 1st touchdown catch of the season! It was a nice route too, juked out the defender at the 2 yard line then ran a simple slant route to catch the pass. Unfortunately the Cardinals went on to lose the game 28-21, Arnold finished the game with his 1 touchdown grab. Congratulations to the former Boylan Titan!!
Boylan-Northwestern-Green Bay Packers DL Dean Lowry
The Packers struggled again last week vs the run, allowing the Colts to finish with 140 total yards on the ground. Dean Lowry had 1 solo tackle in the teams 34-31 overtime loss vs the Colts. Dean Lowry and the Packers will look to get back in the win column on Sunday night as the team gets ready to host the traveling Chicago Bears.
