Special Teams

Offensive Player of the Week: WR Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams

Nacua’s run continued on Thursday Night Football, with the Rams receiver averaging 5.00 yards per route run and earning a 92.6 PFF receiving grade after a 225-yard performance. He has now averaged 5.00 yards per route run or better in three straight games.

Defensive Player of the Week: CB Derek Stingley Jr., Houston Texans

The Texans’ top cornerback produced his best game of the season, scoring on a pick-six in the team’s Week 16 win over the Raiders. He allowed just two receptions, and that performance, combined with the touchdown, helped him earn a 93.2 PFF coverage grade in the win.

Rookie of the Week: QB Cam Ward, Tennessee Titans

The top overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft was not the highest-graded rookie this week, but positional value earned him the award. He posted a career-high 89.9 PFF grade in the Titans’ win over the Kansas City Chiefs, producing three big-time throws with no turnover-worthy plays.

Offensive Line of the Week: New England Patriots

While there were no individual standouts, the Patriots performed well in pass protection as a unit. Left tackle Vederian Lowe was the team’s lowest-graded offensive lineman in pass protection, but even he posted a solid 64.9 PFF pass-blocking grade.
