Week three of the National Football League is in the books. Here is a list of five, fresh new rookies on winning teams who have cracked our top five for the week.
5. Peyton Hendershot–Dallas Cowboys
The rookie tight end from Lizton, Indiana got the start on Monday night when Dalton Schultz was inactive with a knee ailment. The 23-year-old from Indiana University developed some chemistry with Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush, as he had three catches for 43 yards. Despite the fact the Cowboys have many significant injuries, they are at two wins and one loss, and they have found a way to win two games without their star quarterback Dak Prescott.
4) Alec Pierce–Indianapolis Colts
In one of the biggest surprises of week three, the Indianapolis Colts beat the Kansas City Chiefs 20-17 for their first win of the season. Wide receiver Alec Pierce of Glen Ellyn, Illinois had three catches for 61 yards. Pierce was the second round pick, 53rd overall by the Colts in the 2022 NFL Draft.

Like the Colts, the Falcons won their first game of the year. London, a native of Moorpark, California, now has 16 catches for 214 yards and two touchdowns. Join Our Competition Club Here
1) Jelani Woods–Indianapolis Colts
The rookie tight end from Ellenwood, Georgia is one of two tight ends to make the list in week three, and one of two Colts. In the Colts win by a field goal over the Chiefs, Woods had his first two catches of his NFL career for 13 yards. However what made Woods’s day so special is the fact he recorded a touchdown on both of his catches. The first touchdown opened the scoring on a one yard catch, and the second touchdown closed out the scoring on a 12 yard catch from Matt Ryan with 24 seconds left, and gave the Colts a 20-17 win.

With DaVante Adams in Las Vegas now, there was a question who was going to step up in Green Bay and start catching footballs from MVP Aaron Rodgers. One answer appears to be Romeo Doubs of Los Angeles, California. On Sunday, the product from the University of Nevada had eight catches for 73 yards and one touchdown in a 14-12 Packers win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Doubs’s touchdown was for five yards in the first quarter with three minutes left. It put the Packers up 7-3, and it would be a lead they would not relinquish.
