New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught two of four targets for 32 yards through the air during Sunday's Week 5 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

Greg Dortch Not Used Much In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch caught only one pass for seven yards on a designed screen during Sunday's 24-23 win over the San Francisco 49ers.

Chuba Hubbard Has Another Big Outing

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard reeled off another excellent performance in the team's 36-10 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Ja'Lynn Polk Plays Every Offensive Snap In Week 5

New England Patriots wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk converted six targets into just one catch for 13 yards during Sunday's Week 5 loss to the Miami Dolphins.
