Multiple Cyclones found the endzone for the first time since week one, as 11 of the 14 Cyclones on active rosters won this weekend. No win was bigger than Brock Purdy and the 49ers who defeated the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks on the road to remain a perfect 5-0.<\/p>\n
The Cyclones have plenty alumni in standalone games this week, beginning with Enyi and the Broncos on Thursday before the group in Houston plays in London to open up Sunday morning. Purdy and the 49ers will close things out for the week on Monday Night Football against the Commanders.<\/p>\n
Brock Purdy \u2013 QB, #13, San Francisco 49ers (5-0)
\nPurdy continues to showcase why he’s one of the league’s best field generals as he led the 49ers into the reigning Super Bowl champs’ stadium and walked out with a win. He tossed a pair of touchdowns in the win and has thrown at least two in every contest so far this season.
\nLast Time Out: W at SEA, 32-29 \/\/ 19-29 for 189 yards and 2 TDs, 5 rushes for 6 yards
\nUp Next: Oct. 19, vs. Washington (7:15 pm on ESPN)<\/p>\n
Jaylin Noel \u2013 WR, #13 \u2013 Houston Texans (1-4)
\nNoel found paydirt for the first time this season, as he and C.J. Stroud hooked up five times \u2013 tying for the team lead in receptions. Both he and Xavier Hutchinson may see their roles shift as Houston traded for Marvin Harrison Jr. and is getting Tank Dell back from injury soon.
\nLast Time Out: W at TEN, 26-3 \/\/ 5 catches for 41 yards and 1 TD, 1 rush for 1 yard, 1 kick return for 22 yards, 2 punt returns for 21 yards
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, vs. Jacksonville (8:30 am on NFL Network \u2013 game played in London)<\/p>\n
C.J. Stroud \u27a1\ufe0f Jaylin Noel for the touchdown!

\u2014 NFL (@NFL) October 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n Will McDonald IV \u2013 EDGE, #9, New York Jets (2-3) Fitting way to close it out. David Bailey almost gets sack number four but Will McDonald gets there first.
\u2014 Glenn Naughton (@JNRadio_Glenn) October 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n Xavier Hutchinson \u2013 WR, #19, Houston Texans (1-4) Darien Porter \u2013 DB, #26, Las Vegas Raiders (3-2) Charlie Kolar \u2013 TE, #88, Los Angeles Chargers (0-5) Enyi Uwazurike \u2013 DL, #96, Denver Broncos (3-2) Kene Nwangwu \u2013 RB, #3, New York Jets (2-3) Jalen Travis \u2013 OL, #75, Indianapolis Colts (2-3) David Montgomery \u2013 RB, #32, Houston Texans (1-4)
\nMcDonald had another solid outing for the Jets, amid rainy conditions. He was used a bit more as a quarterback spy on Deshaun Watson versus a traditional rusher, but he was still able to seal the game with a strip sack that he recovered.
\nLast Time Out: W vs. CLE, 17-12 \/\/ 4 tackles (1 solo), 1 sack, 2 QB Hits, 1 forced fumble and 1 fumble recovery

\nNice day for the @nyjets in some very sloppy conditions. https:\/\/t.co\/yXUe4YAqRN<\/p>\n
\nHutchinson was again tied for the second-most receptions on the team this weekend. He averaged 16.3 yards per reception, and his 65 receiving yards led all players.
\nLast Time Out: W at TEN, 26-3 \/\/ 4 catches for 65 yards
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, vs. Jacksonville (8:30 am on NFL Network \u2013 game played in London)<\/p>\n
\nPorter seemed to begin the process of wrestling back the starting corner spot from Hezekiah Masses, as he had his best game of the season against the Patriots. He was tied for the second-most tackles by any Raider and led all players with two passes defended.
\nLast Time Out: L at NE, 17-45 \/\/ 7 tackles (5 solo), 2 passes defended, 1 fumble recovery
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, vs. Buffalo (3:25 pm on CBS)<\/p>\n
\nAfter Los Angeles reversed its initial decision to place Kolar on injured reserve, Kolar returned to the field after missing the last two games with a broken forearm. He’d proceed to play over 75% of the team’s offensive snaps and led the team in catches and receiving yards.
\nLast Time Out: L vs. DEN, 17-23 \/\/ 3 catches for 37 yards, 57 total snaps
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, at Kansas City (3:25 pm on CBS)<\/p>\n
\nUwazurike matched his season high with three tackles against the Chargers, with all three going down as solo stops. Mike Klis of 9News in Denver put together a feature on Enyi and how he’s earned a starting spot on a vaunted NFL defense. You can read it here<\/a>.
\nLast Time Out: W at LAC, 23-17 \/\/ 3 solo tackles, 33 total snaps
\nNext Up: Oct. 15, vs. Seattle (7:15 pm on Prime Video)<\/p>\n
\nNwangwu continues to provide a spark to the Jets’ special teams, as the return game has seen an average return increase since his return two weeks ago.
\nLast Time Out: W vs. CLE, 17-12 \/\/ 3 kick returns for 68 yards
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, at New England (12 pm on CBS)<\/p>\n
\nTravis held his own in reps against premier pass-rusher T.J. Watt on Sunday in Pittsburgh. Unfortunately, Travis went down with an ankle injury toward the end of the contest and has missed the practices early in the week. His status for the weekend is in question.
\nLast Time Out: L at PIT, 22-34 \/\/ 67 offensive snaps (94.4%), 6 special teams snaps
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, vs. Tennessee (12 pm on FOX)<\/p>\n
\nAfter a few early attempts against the Titans, Montgomery was sidelined with a groin injury. He is considered “week to week” by Texan coach DeMeco Ryans.
\nLast Time Out: W at TEN, 26-3 \/\/ 5 rushes for 11 yards
\nUp Next: Oct. 18, vs. Jacksonville (8:30 am on NFL Network \u2013 game played in London)<\/p>\n
