STILLWATER – We’ve been doing this article for a little over three years now and this is one of the better weeks of football to write about. It was a huge week for James Washington and Jordan Brailford and we can’t forget about Emmanual Ogbah who continues to have great performances.
We’re going to start with last night’s Pittsburgh-Washington game.
Coming into this game, the Pittsburgh Steelers were undefeated on the season at 11-0 and looking to top the struggling Washington Football Team. Well, Washington had other plans, but James Washington did his best to try and keep the Steelers on track. He finished the game with two receptions and one touchdown, easily one of the most impressive touchdowns of his short NFL career.

That brings Washington up to 23 receptions on the season with 343 yards and four touchdowns.

Next up on the list is a 27-24 overtime win over the Jacksonville Jaguars for Jordan Brailford, Dan Bailey and the Minnesota Vikings.
Brailford recorded his first tackles of the 2020 season on Sunday as he finished with two tackles and one fumble recovery, but one of those tackles scored some points.
