Rebels in the NFL Update Through Four Weeks

Ole Miss has a strong presence on NFL rosters, currently.

Of the 26 Rebels currently on NFL rosters, none have made a bigger impact this year than DK Metcalf. We'll get to Metcalf more here later on, but the second year player quite literally is tied for the lead in the National Football League in receiving.

Rebels in the NFL update:

A.J. Brown, WR Tennessee Titans
Brown's only played one week this year, as this week's matchup between the Titans and Steelers was postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak on the Titans and he missed some time with a bruised knee. Having just played one game, Brown caught five balls for 39 yards.

Evan Engram, TE New York Giants
Engram led the Giants this week with six catches for 35 yards in a 17-9 loss to the Rams. He has 17 catches for 131 yards on the year.

Myles Harsfield, CB Carolina Panthers
Saw action on 18 snaps on special teams in the 31-21 win over the Cardinals. He's played in all four games this year with his snap percentage rising nearly every game.

Marquis Haynes, DE Carolina Panthers
Combined on two tackles and played 11 snaps on defense in the 31-21 win over the Cardinals. He recorded sack one week ago in a win over the Chargers.

Mike Hilton, CB Pittsburgh Steelers
Starting two of the three games for Pittsburgh this year, he played in 79% of the snaps last week and has one interception and three passes defended.

D.J. Jones, DT San Francisco 49ers
Jones started at defensive tackle and recorded a seven-yard sack in the 25-20 loss to the Eagles, his second sack of the year.

Dawson Knox, TE Buffalo Bills
Knox caught two passes for 16 yards in the 30-23 victory over the Raiders. He's been targeted exactly three times in each game this season.

Greg Little, LT Carolina Panthers
Little tarted at left tackle for the second consecutive week. He played 55 snaps in the victory and was a part of an offensive line unit that did not allow a sack.

Bobby Massie, OT Chicago Bears
Massie has started all four games at right tackle this year and actually caught one pass in week two.

DK Metcalf, WR Seattle Seahawks
Metcalf surpassed the 100-yard mark in receiving for the second straight week, finishing with four catches for 106 yards. He leads the league in receiving

He’s averaging 25.2 YPC which is a) silly and b) first in the NFL by a mile.

LSU rookie Justin Jefferson second at 21.8 YPC

Webster played four snaps on defense and 16 on special teams in the 25-20 loss to the Eagles. He does have a tackle on the year despite playing only 11 defensive snaps.
