How every former Ole Miss player performed during NFL Week 6

Week 6 of the NFL season featured another busy slate for former Ole Miss football players, with Rebels making contributions on both sides of the ball across the league.

Wide receiver D.K. Metcalf turned in one of the most productive performances of the week, hauling in 11 receptions for 93 yards, while Tavius Robinson continued his strong start to the season by adding another half-sack for Baltimore.

Elsewhere, veterans such as Evan Engram, Laquon Treadwell and Dawson Knox added to their season totals, and several former Rebels earned starting roles for their respective teams.
