Denver Broncos running back Samaje Perine was expected to have an elevated role in the offense in Week 5 against the New York Jets with Javonte Williams (quadriceps) sidelined, and that came to fruition in the 31-21 loss.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon ran the ball 25 times in Sunday's win over the Cardinals, finishing with 81 yards. He added four catches (four targets) for 13 yards.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson secured three of his seven targets for 54 yards in a 31-21 victory over the Denver Broncos.

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill salvaged his day by scoring the team's only touchdown of the day.
