[Le journal des rookies] week 4: on Nate Wiggins’ island – Touchdown News

If Jayden Daniels splashes the NFL with his talent, other players like Nate Wiggins are starting to make their mark.

Every NFL Wednesday, the rookie newspaper honors the most prominent rookies. The best offensive beginner, his defensive alter ego, the action, the revelation of the week… And, finally, Power Rooking. Everything, you will know everything about the rookies!

Offensive Rookie of the Week

Jayden Daniels – WR – Washington Commanders (2e choix)
26/30, 233 yards, 1 touchdown, 1 interception, 8 courses, 47 yards, 1 touchdown

The weeks follow one another and are similar. A convincing victory in Arizona and a performance still full of authority despite his first interception. Daniels carries Washington and his connection with Terry McLaurin is improving week after week.

Special Mention: Brian Thomas – WR – Jacksonville Jaguars (23rd pick)
6 réceptions, 86 yards, 1 touchdown, 1 course, 13 yards

Nothing is going well in Jacksonville at the start of the season with 4 defeats in a row. Nothing except Brian Thomas. Author of a complete and promising performance, the former LSU receiver is slowly but surely establishing himself as Trevor Lawrence’s new favorite target.

Defensive Rookie of the Week

Nate Wiggins – CB – Baltimore Ravens (30e choix)
2 tackles including 0.5 for loss, 1 pass defended, 1 reception allowed for 5 yards

Quietly, Nate Wiggins put in a great performance against Josh Allen and his team. The former Clemson player completely muzzled his counterparts. His coverage was excellent and he came close to intercepting Josh Allen.

Action of the week

Tory Taylor – P – Chicago Bears (122e)

What a kick! The Bears punter particularly distinguished himself in the victory against the Rams, pushing back the opponent 3 times within his 20 yards, including a monumental 66-yarder which did not fail to delight the young player.

The revelation of the week

Jordan Whittington – WR – Los Angeles Rams (213e choix)
6 receptions, 62 yards

It seems that the Rams have made a specialty of finding nuggets at the receiver position. Deprived of Nacua, last year’s revelation and of Cooper Kupp, Stafford relied in particular on Jordan Whittington, targeted 8 times for 6 receptions.
