    NFL Week 9 Recap for Former Virginia Football Players

    Harry Posted on

    Eight former players spotted in Week 9 of NFL season Virginia football The players saw the field. Let’s see how all these former Cavaliers and their teams fare in Week 9 in this edition of the Hoos in the NFL.

    Olamide Zaccheaus He had the NFL’s play of the week for UVA football alumni, making a huge 42-yard reception from Jayden Daniels late in the game to contribute to the Washington Commanders’ 27-22 victory over the New York Giants. Zaccheaus caught both passes coming his way for a total of 48 yards and returned a punt for eight yards. He played 24 offensive snaps (39% of Washington’s offensive snaps) and two special teams snaps (9%) for the Commanders, as the Commanders won their third straight game and moved atop the NFC East at 7-2. He maintained it with an overall record.

    Morgan Moses The New York Jets ended their five-game losing streak with a blowout 21-13 win over the Houston Texans on Thursday night. Moses played all 58 offensive snaps for the Jets at right tackle and three special teams snaps (12%).

    Juan Thornhill He recorded five total tackles, including two solo stops, in the Cleveland Browns’ 27-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Thornhill played 44 defensive snaps (77%) and one special teams snap. Rodney McLeod Jr. He logged 20 defensive (35%) and 14 special teams (48%) snaps for the Browns, who have lost six of their last seven games and fell to 2-7 overall.

    Charles Snowden He recorded two tackles, one without an assist, in the Las Vegas Raiders’ 41-24 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Snowden played 11 defensive snaps and seven special teams snaps (22%), his lowest snap count of the season. The Raiders have lost their last five games and are 2-7.

    In the Arizona Cardinals’ crushing 29-9 victory over the Chicago Bears, Joey Blunt he recorded no defensive statistics, but played six defensive snaps, or 8% of Arizona’s defensive snaps. This marks the first time Blount has relapsed on defense since Week 2 and only the second time all year. He also played 18 special teams snaps (64%) for the Cardinals, who have won three straight games and currently lead the NFC West at 5-4 overall.

    Dontayvion Suppositories He had perhaps his worst game of the season in the Green Bay Packers’ 24-10 loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday, as he had zero receptions on three targets, including a bad fumble in the end zone. He was a little behind the pass, but it was a catch he needed to make with this wide open because it could have kept the Packers in the game a little longer. Wicks has developed a habit of bouncing back from bad games with outstanding performances, so we’ll see what he can do after the bye week for Green Bay, which is 6-3 but in third place in the tough NFC North.

    Malik Washington He had no targets in the passing game for the second straight week, but had a punt return that resulted in a nine-yard rush and a one-yard loss in the Miami Dolphins’ 30-27 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Washington had 21 carries (34%) and eight special teams (32%) for the Dolphins, who lost their third straight game and fell to 2-6 overall.

    Brent Urban He was inactive this week due to the concussion he suffered last week against the Browns, but the Baltimore Ravens got back on track with a 41-10 win over the Denver Broncos.
