Steele Skinner Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Holliday got the W thanks in part to Steele Skinner playing the best football he has all season. Skinner rushed for 198 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the year, Skinner has averaged 25.7 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after six games last season, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to four.

While Millsap might've come up empty on Friday, Nixon Delaune wasn't going down without a fight. Delaune turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up a sack, making four total tackles, and defending a pass. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack, making four total tackles, and defending a pass.
Millsap has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four games, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-4 record this season. Delaune and Millsap will play host again on Friday to welcome Jacksboro, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.
