He was under pressure on only six snaps but went 3-of-4 for 86 yards — 21.5 yards per attempt —and added an 18-yard scramble on those pressured dropbacks.

Defensive Player of the Week: CB C.J. Henderson, Carolina Panthers

Targeted three times in coverage, C.J. Henderson allowed one catch for 47 yards but snagged an interception in overtime that should have won his team the game. He also added a pass breakup and finished the game with the highest single-game PFF grade of his career.

Rookie of the Week: S Kyle Hamilton, Baltimore Ravens

Hamilton was as stingy as it gets on Thursday Night Football against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, allowing just two catches for 15 yards on four targets in coverage. He forced one incompletion, allowed just one first down and added a QB hit as a blitzer. 

Offensive Line of the Week: Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay offense may have fallen short, but the offensive line earned the best pass-blocking grade in the NFL this week after combining for just six pressures allowed on 48 passing snaps.
