With several great performances this week, here are just a few Razorbacks that made a positive impact for the NFL team’s this past week.

It was a great week for Henry and Wise as their teams got a much needed win. The New England Patriots improve to 3-4 after taking down the Jets at home.

It was a touch day for Flowers and Jacobs, as the Detroit Lions continue to struggle this season. The Lions remain the only team that has yet to win a game this 2021 NFL season.

Alex Collins, who continues to enjoy an important role on the Seahawks, took a majority of the snaps at running back for Seattle. The ‘Hawks had their hands full on Monday Night Football against the Saints, falling 13-10 at home.

Razorback fans will be sure to keep an eye on Henry and the Patriots as they travel to Los Angeles to face his former team, in the red-hot Chargers. Will Henry be able to continue his streak of recording a touchdown in a game?
