Amari Cotton Goes Supernova in Jo Byrns Loss
Jo Byrns had to settle for second on Friday, but Amari Cotton sure wasn't going down easily. Cotton turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 131 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Jo Byrns has traveled a rocky road recently having lost five of their last six contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-6 record this season.
