Honorable mention: Jalen Mills & Nelson Agholor

Nelson Agholor also had a better game than many expected. He caught four of the five passes he was targeted on for 57 yards, and he was on the receiving end of a touchdown where he beat Pro Bowl corner Joe Haden.

Honorable mention also has to be given to Jalen Mills. Why you ask? After Leodis McKelvin left the game with injury, Mills played very well. He did a great job in coverage and came up with some big time stops on third down.
