Kickoff returns:  4 returns/89 yards

Notes:  Latimer went on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.

RODGER SAFFOLD, OT, LOS ANGELES RAMS

Games/Started – 8/8

Notes:  Saffold continues to be a dominant fixture on the Rams offensive line.  He is enjoying a great season as the longest tenured Ram.  Saffold has certainly seen the highs and lows of the Rams’ franchise and appears to be on a strong Super Bowl contender this year.

JASON SPRIGGS, OT, GREEN BAY PACKERS

Games/Started – 6/0

Notes:  Spriggs missed one game with an ankle injury but has appeared in every other game thus far for Green Bay.

NATE SUDFELD, QB, PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

Notes:  Sudfeld continues to sit behind Carson Wentz and Nick Foles.  There was hope that he might benefit in some way from the trade deadline, but it did not happen.  The California native saw extensive preseason action, completing 43 of 74 passes for 524 yards to go with 5 touchdowns and 3 interceptions.

IAN THOMAS, TE, CAROLINA PANTHERS

Games/Started – 7/3
Rec – 11
Yards – 87
TD – 0

Notes:  With the return of Greg Olsen, Thomas has returned to a backup role although he is still seeing game action and should continue to do so over the course of the season.
