Jordan Williams Has Career-Day on Friday
Starting off the list is Ord's Jordan Williams, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Williams rushed for 177 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 9.8 yards per carry, and also threw for 130 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He continues to roll, besting his previous point total in each of the last three games he's played.
On the year, Williams has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 114.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to nine.
