#ProDawgs Week 10: Salvon Ahmed shines for Miami

The National Football League’s Week 11 of the 2020-21 season is set to begin with the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals on Thursday Night Football. This means that Budda Baker and Byron Murphy will once again have the opportunity to give their home town team headaches but first, let’s take a look back at how they, along with the rest of the #ProDawgs performed last week.

Against the Buffalo Bills, Budda had nine tackles and broke up a pass while Murphy had six tackles as they helped guide the Cards’ to a 32-30 victory thanks to a Hail Mary connection from Kyler Murray to Deandre Hopkins. Meanwhile, Seattle Seahawk Will Dissly caught a pass for 16 yards but the Los Angeles Rams walked away with a 23-16 win.

While Myles Gaskin continues to miss time for the Miami Dolphins while he nurses an MCL injury, his former running mate Salvon Ahmed took over the ball carrier duties and rushed for 85 yards on 21 carries while also adding a five-yard reception. Originally, Gaskin was the big surprise for Miami but with Ahmed’s outburst, he’ll have the share the spotlight with his UW running mate.

Against the Aaron Rodgers led Green Bay Packers, Sidney Jones of the Jacksonville Jaguars continues his bounce-back year after a big game in their 24-20 loss. Jones had 9 tackles, a forced fumble, an interception, and broke up two passes.

The Carolina Panthers took a 46-23 beating against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but Shaq Thompson had seven tackles and a forced fumble in the loss. Marcus Peters and his Baltimore Ravens also were on the losing end of the scoreboard after the New England Patriots beat them 23-17. Peters had 3 tackles in that game while Myles Bryant recorded his first career tackle for the Pats’.

Cincinnati Bengal Drew Sample caught a pass in their 36-10 defeat against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Dwayne Washington rushed for 9 yards on 5 carries in their 27-13 victory over the San Francisco 49ers and the Detroit Lions had two former Huskies doing work as Desmond Trufant finished the game with 5 tackles and Marvin Hall caught two passes for 61 yards and a score. The Lions beat the Washington Football Team 30-27.

Go Dawgs!
