Brian Bonner Dazzles in Valencia Win
Brian Bonner's big game helped extend Valencia's winning streak to three on Thursday. Bonner did his part (and then some), rushing for 83 yards and four touchdowns, while also picking up 47 receiving yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
On the year, Bonner has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 48.4 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 17.
