Pro Pokes: NFL Week 7
Another week of college football has passed, and while Oklahoma State fans got to enjoy a win on Saturday, they could have watched a variety of talents the program has sent to the NFL over time.
Here are a few performances recapped from different Oklahoma State Cowboys in the NFL.
Jaylen Warren, Pittsburgh Steelers: It was another impressive game for the Pittsburgh Steelers backup running back as the team defeated the Los Angeles Rams 24-17. Warren had another productive game as the Steelers took the win, too.
Only getting six carries, Warren picked up 32 yards, which is good for 5.3 yards per carry. He added a touchdown on the ground for the Steelers, too.
Warren continues to be a solid backup for the Steelers and lobbying for more and more carries.
Tyreek Hill, Miami Dolphins: Another game, another touchdown score and plenty of receptions from Tyreek in the Dolphins 31-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Tyreek caught 11 passes for 88 yards and a reception touchdown. It wasn't enough for the Dolphins, but it was yet another game with big numbers.
Justice Hill, Baltimore Ravens: It was a huge win for the Ravens in Week 7 as they routed the Detroit Lions 38-6. In doing so, former Poke Justice Hill received four touches which he took for 46 yards, an average of 11.5 yards per carry.
Hill continues to get fewer carries than Gus Edwards, but his yards per carry and explosive play potential are positive to have on the field.
Both Hill and Warren are in backup running back position roles, and both have a case to overtake more and more snaps in the back field and could provide a good role if given more touches.
