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!
Detavious Williams' Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Starting off the list is Winnfield's Detavious Williams, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Williams rushed for 165 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
This year, Williams has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 36.3 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.14 rushing yards per game.

Another Winnfield player making an appearance on this list is Damascus Lewis. He rushed for 85 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries. He is becoming a predictor of Winnfield's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 3-1 (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
This season, Lewis has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 67.4 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he had one rushing touchdown.
