Pokes in the NFL: Week 3
Another week is in the books, which means it's time take a look across the NFL to see how the former Oklahoma State players performed.
Former Oklahoma State quarterback Mason Rudolph had his first full week as the starter in Pittsburgh after the Steelers lost Ben Roethlisberger for the season with an elbow injury. While the Steelers ended up losing the game 24-20 and dropping to 0-3 on the season, Rudolph is learning valuable lessons for the rest of the season.
Also, some more injury promotion news, Justin Phillips was promoted to the Raiders' 53-man roster following the injury to Vontaze Burfict.
However, with good news sometimes comes bad news and the bad news this time is the Detroit Lions have released receiver Chris Lacy. On the flip side, the turned around and signed him to the practice squad.
