13 former Huskers saw action in the third week of the NFL season last weekend.
Ameer Abdullah had five carries for 24 yards in helping the Vikings take down Seattle with a 30-17 victory on Sunday while Rex Burkhead pulled in a five-yard reception in the Thursday Night Football game vs. Carolina.
On the defensive side, Lavonte David tallied six solo tackles while playing every defensive snap for Tampa Bay at the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Maliek Collins totaled four tackles in a loss vs. Carolina on Thursday Night Football, and Luke Gifford tallied two tackles, including one tackle for loss in a 41-21 win over Philadelphia on Monday Night Football.
On special teams, Sam Koch punted three times for a total of 137 yards, averaging 45.7 yards per punt. He pinned the Lions inside the 20 on two punts while having his longest punt of the game at 54 yards. Koch was also part of a play on Sunday that will go down in NFL history, serving as the holder of Justin Tucker’s record-breaking 66-yard field goal as time expired to narrowly defeat the Lions on Sunday afternoon.
