Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Wray Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Samuel Meisner
Samuel Meisner's big game helped extend Wray's winning streak to seven on Friday. Meisner was dynamite, forcing a fumble, making eight total tackles (2.0 for loss), and defending a pass. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble, making eight total tackles (2.0 for loss), and defending a pass.
If the past is any indication, Meisner could be in store for another big game when he takes on Yuma on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Meisner saw the Outlaws), he made 13 total tackles (1.5 for loss).
