Troy Holloway Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Bolles got the W thanks in part to Troy Holloway playing the best football he has all season. Holloway forced two fumbles, made nine total tackles, and defended a pass.
For the season, Holloway has averaged 8.6 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.25 defended passes per game. This year he is averaging 0.5 defended passes.
