Jalin Hyatt – New York Giants – WR

Alvin Kamara – New Orleans Saints – RB
Kamara racked up 64 all-purpose yards and a touchdown in the Saints’ loss to the Buccaneers. He received 13 carries for 40 yards and a touchdown and caught five passes for 24 yards. The Saints are trusting former South Carolina quarterback and current rookie Spencer Rattler as Derek Carr remains out with an injury.
Cade Mays – Carolina Panthers – OL
Mays played four special teams snaps in the Panther’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Mays was recently signed from the Giants practice squad to the Panthers active roster.
Joe Milton III – New England Patriots – QB
Milton did not see any snaps, as the Patriots turned to rookie quarterback and first-round pick Drake Maye.
