Pro Dawgs In The NFL: Week Five Recap

Oct 13, 2021

Several former Huskies are now playing in the National Football League. Below is a look back at last week's games, presented by Toyota.

NOTABLE PERFORMERS

Myles Gaskin was very active in the Dophins' passing game, catching a career-high 10 passes for 74 yards (7.4 avg.) and 2 TDs. Gaskin's 10 receptions are tied for the most in Dolphins history by a player whose primary position was running back. Gaskin is the only player in team history whose primary position was running back to have multiple games with at least two touchdown receptions. Gaskin also had two touchdown receptions on Dec. 26, 2020 at Las Vegas ... That Dolphins-Buccaneers game had six former Huskies on the rotsters for both teams ... The Rams-Seahawks game had seven Huskies on the roster, five of which were active. Sidney Jones had five tackles and Will Dissly had two receptions for 29 yards for the Seahawks. On the Rams side, Greg Gaines had two tackles and a QB hit, Taylor Rapp had a tackle and Coleman Shelton saw action on the line during special teams ... Budda Baker just makes plays. He had an interception, six tackles and a pass defense for the Cardinals ... Danny Shelton made six tackles and was credited with half a sack for the NY Giants ... Elijah Molden made three tackles and forced a fumble for the Titans. 

All Gas, no brakes.
 

Not your average Joe.
 

Elijah Molden keeping things loose.

Budda with the pick!
