Auden Tate
Even after leaving the field on a stretcher and donning a neck brace on the plane ride home last week, Tate took the field this week against the Steelers. Tate had a single catch for 10 yards as he got back in the swing of things.

As an added bonus, it was a nice catch over a Gator to kick off rivalry week:

Jameis Winston
Coming back from two interceptions in the first quarter, Jameis Winston tossed three touchdowns in the Bucs’ win over Atlanta, including this 71-yard strike which is the longest of his career to this point:

And it was another crazy throw to Chris Godwin for his second of the day:

Lastly, Winston threw one to 347 pound DT Vita Vea, who might be the heaviest player to ever catch a TD:

Winston eclipsed 300 yards passing once again, making this his sixth straight game to do so:
Winston now has over 300 yards passing. Not hard when you have CG12 accounting for nearly 2/3 of that total.

It's his sixth-consecutive 300+ yard game, further extending his franchise record. It's also the longest active streak in the league.
Brian Burns
Since his hot start, Burns has seen the field much less in recent weeks. In his limited time today, Burns terrorized Brees and the Saints’ offensive line with 2 solo tackles, including a sack and a TFL.
This tweet from Burns’ brother and former Panther Stanley McClover shows the sack, as well as frustration with Burns’ playing time that Panthers fans are echoing:
Brian Burns Deserve more fucking playing time period!!!! He plays more we win don’t @ me pic.twitter.com/un7Z1GSCv7

Dustin Hopkins
Dustin Hopkins has scored 40 percent of Washington’s points this year. Today was no different as Hopkins carried the Redskins again, making all four of his field goals including this game-winner:
