Sooners in the NFL Week 4: Baker Mayfield and CeeDee Lamb Headline Oklahoma's Pros
Oklahoma’s pro players had a strong showing in Week 4 of NFL action. The former Sooners were responsible for a handful of touchdowns and a lot of production.
Headlining Oklahoma’s NFL performances was obviously Baker Mayfield, who is on pace for a career-year in Tampa Bay. His 347 yards and three touchdowns led the Buccaneers to a big time victory over Jalen Hurts and the Eagles. Sterling Shepard, recently activated from the practice squad, found an immediate connection with his former quarterback, catching three passes for 51 yards. Read about the OU quarterback duel here.
CeeDee Lamb started off the weekend on the right foot, torching the New York Giants on Thursday night. A week after frustrations began to boil over, Lamb reminded everyone why he’s one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. The former OU pass catcher recorded seven receptions for 98 yards and a touchdown. He hauled in a 55-yard pass from Dak Prescott that ended up being the highlight of the game.
In other NFL news, former Oklahoma running back Samaje Perine scored his first touchdown of the year. He has been a huge help to Kansas City’s banged up running back room and had another good game on Sunday. In a win over the Chargers, Perine had 14 yards on five carries and a touchdown.
