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!
Jordan Williams Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
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.
This season, Williams has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 114.8 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to nine.

This year, BENES has thrown 1 touchdown (and no picks) while averaging 14.2 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to ten.
