Here is a look at how several former Wolfpack stars performed this week in the National Football League.
 


* David Amerson is currently a free agent and working out for teams. 

* Jacoby Brissett served as the backup for Andrew Luck this week.

* Juston Burris was released last week by the Jets.

* Bradley Chubb continued his stellar play, totaling four tackles and half a sack in the loss at Kansas CIty.  Chubb now has 7.0 sacks in eight games. 

* Matthew Dayes is on the Browns' practice squad.

* Mike Glennon didn't play for Arizona in the win over the 49ers.

* David Grinnage earned the start at tight end for Jacksonville, totaling three catches for 37 yards in the loss to the Eagles.

* Stephen Hauschka made both of his field goal attempts in Buffalo's blowout loss to the Patriots.

* Dontae Johnson received his injury release from the Seahawks and was signed by Buffalo.  He has yet to play for the Bills.

* Nyheim Hines finished with 11 carries for a season-high 78 yards and added two receptions for 8 yards in the blowout win over Oakland. 

* Josh Jones had two tackles for Green Bay in the loss at the Rams.

* Justin Jones and San Diego were off this week.

* Ted Larsen started at left guard for the Dolphins in the loss at the Texans.

* T.Y. McGill was recently claimed off waivers by the Eagles but failed his physical and was waived.  It's likely he gets re-signed after getting in better shape.

* Philip Rivers and San Diego were off this week.

* Jaylen Samuels received his first action of the season, totaling four carries for 17 yards in Pittsburgh's home win over Cleveland.

* J.R. Sweezy started at right guard this week for Seattle, who went on the road and knocked off Detroit.

* Joe Thuney started at left guard for New England.  The Patriots routed Buffalo on Monday night.
