The Rams came up just short against the Packers, but a pair of former Tennessee standouts under Josh Heupel were crucial on the defensive side.

Second-year edge rusher Byron Young got pressure at the goal line forcing Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love to try to throw the ball away and avoid taking a safety. This led to rookie Jaylen McCollough coming up with a pick that he returned for his first professional touchdown.

Young would finish with four tackles and a tackle for loss while McCollough's afternoon was limited to the big play.

A member of a banged up Dolphins team that has struggled out of the gates, Jaylen Wright didn't get off to a dynamic start to his rookie season.

The last two weeks have featured much more success, though. This time it was crucial in Miami finding a win over the Jerod Mayo-led Patriots.

Wright was the team's leading rusher with 13 carries for 86 yards. This featured an average of 6.6 yards per pop and a long of 17.
