Here is how the former Gophers on NFL rosters did in Week 3!
Eric Decker- Wide Receiver New York Jets
Week 3 Opponent: Chicago Bears
Decker tested his injured hamstring and determined he could play, and caught one pass for 19 yards before he reinjured his hamstring in the second quarter.
Week 4 Opponent: Detroit Lions
The Jets travel to Detroit, and may be without Decker. We shall see as we get closer to the game.
Marqueis Gray- Tight End Minnesota Vikings
Week 3 Opponent: New Orleans Saints
Gray saw significant playing time in the second half as Kyle Rudolph was injured for the Vikings. He did not record any stats however.
Week 4 Opponent: Atlanta Falcons
With Rudolph out, Gray is now the primary pass catching tight end for the Vikings. So that's good for him, but not so much for the team.
Ra'Shede Hageman- Defensive Tackle Atlanta Falcons
Week 3 Opponent: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Atlanta killed Tampa 56-14 last Thursday, but Shede did not record any stats
Week 4 Opponent: Minnesota Vikings
Shede will make his triumphant return to TCF Bank Stadium when the Falcons play the Vikings this Sunday.
Marcus Sherels- Cornerback/ Punt Returner Minnesota Vikings
Week 3 Opponent: New Orleans Saints
Sherels returned four punts, but for only a total of eleven yards. Not great.
Week 4 Opponent: Atlanta Falcons
Sherels will try his luck if the Vikings defense can stop Matt Ryan.
Matt Spaeth- Tight End Pittsburgh Steelers
Week 3 Opponent: Carolina Panthers
The Steelers killed Carolina 37-19 on Sunday night, but Spaeth did not record any statistics.
Week 4 Opponent: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Spaeth will hopefully get more action in what should be another blowout for Pittsburgh.
Brock Vereen- Safety Chicago Bears
Week 3 Opponent: New York Jets
Vereen played a good chunk of the game due to injuries in the Bears secondary. He ended up with three tackles, all solo, and made a good defensive play keeping the Jets from scoring the potential game tying touchdown on their last offensive play of the game.
Week 4 Opponent: Green Bay Packers
The Pack head to Soldier Field to take on the Bears, and Vereen should get more time in the secondary.
Tramaine Brock- Cornerback San Francisco 49ers
Week 3 Opponent: Arizona Cardinals
Brock was inactive for the game against the Cardinals still suffering from a turf toe injury from Week 1.
Week 4 Opponent: Philadelphia Eagles
The 49ers host the Eagles in a game where Brock could be definitely be used if he is healthy.
