Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Daune Morris Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Oakland's Daune Morris, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Morris rushed for 229 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 9.5 yards per carry, and also picked up 36 receiving yards. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 59 yards.
The victory (which was Oakland's third in a row) raised their record to 11-1. They and Riverdale are set to duel on Friday.
