Josh Jennings was CAA Co-Defensive player of the week for his 13 tackles and one INT against Albany.
As mentioned by one of our readers, I thought Anthony Rouzier played well on defense with 6 tackles. It was good to see him out there playing the game. Hopefully, this year will be an injury-free year for him.
