Jacieon ?Way? Robertson's Big Game Leads Coolidge over Jackson-Reed
Starting off the list is Coolidge's Jacieon ?Way? Robertson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Robertson rushed for 155 yards on only 13 carries, and also picked up 58 receiving yards. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
