Every NFL Wednesday, the Rookie Diary honors the most prominent rookies. The best offensive beginner, his defensive alter ego, the action, the revelation of the week, the flop… And, to finish, the Power Rooking. Everything, you will know everything regarding the Rookies!
Offensive Rookie of the Week
Kenneth Walker – RB – Seattle Seahawks (41e choix)
23 courses, 168 yards, 2 touchdowns
He has taken on the role of number 1 and he does not disappoint. Already seen in week 6, Kenneth Walker martyred on the defense of the Chargers. A work of undermining and a precious alternation which facilitated the life of Geno Smith. With his devastating support, he exploits all the flaws that his line gives him, like his first touchdown. In a pure traditional running back style, he is one of the symbols of his team’s good form.
Defensive Rookie of the Week
Jaquan Brisker – S – Chicago Bears (48e choix)
7 tackles, 1 interception, 1 pass defended
Against the run or the pass, the safety was omnipresent once morest the Patriots. Author of the action of the match with a magnificent one-handed interception, he contributed to the convincing victory of his team once morest New England. Targeted 5 times, he conceded only 2 receptions for a total of 11 yards.
Special mention : Sam Williams – DE – Dallas Cowboys (56e choix)
3 tackles, 2 sacks, 1 forced fumble, 1 covered fumble
Discreet until then in the excellent defensive line of the Cowboys, Sam Williams distinguished himself in the victory once morest Detroit. Getting the upper hand over Penei Sewell he sacked and snatched the ball from Goff’s hands to put his team in good position for the break.
action of the week
Kayvon Thibodeaux – Edge – New York Giants (5e choix)
If Kayvon Thibodeaux is a defensive lineman, it is not on a tackle from the quarterback that he distinguished himself. His defense taken by a good run from Travis Etienne, the former Oregon player turned into a linebacker to continue and come back to the Jaguars runner. An impressive effort that deserves to be commended.

Flop of the week
Drake London – WR – Atlanta Falcons (8e choix)
After a hot start to the season, the Atlanta receiver has stalled for a few weeks. Targeted once for a gain of 9 yards, his offensive contribution was very discreet.
