Last Updated: November 5, 2025By


TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The National Football League concluded Week 9 of the regular season Monday evening. Below is a look at how former Alabama players performed on the gridiron last week.

A quartet of defensive backs showcased their coverage skills over the weekend, highlighted by Green Bay’s Xavier McKinney who spotted the stat sheet. The Packers’ safety recorded nine tackles, including one sack, to go with a quarterback hit, one pass breakup and a pair of turnovers thanks to his interception and forced fumble. Staying in the NFC North, Terrion Arnold nabbed the first interception of his young career with the Detroit Lions while adding three tackles and three pass breakups.

In the AFC North, Cincinnati Bengals’ safety Jordan Battle made 12 tackles, marking the second time this season that the third-year man has recorded double-digit stops. Baltimore corner Marlon Humphrey notched a season-high six tackles to go with a forced fumble and a fumble recovery, helping the Ravens to a 28-6 rout of the Miami Dolphins on Thursday Night Football.

On the offensive side of the ball, Humphrey’s teammate Derrick Henry was called upon 19 times for 119 rushing yards in the Ravens’ victory. San Francisco quarterback Mac Jones continued his resurgent season, completing 19-of-24 passes for 235 yards and two touchdowns. His teammate, Brian Robinson Jr., totaled five carries for 53 yards and a touchdown, finding paydirt for the first time in a 49ers uniform. At wide receiver, Detroit’s Jameson Williams hauled in four receptions for 66 yards and a touchdown in the Lions divisional pairing with the Minnesota Vikings, finding the end zone for the third time this season.  

Punter JK Scott flipped the field multiple times for the Los Angeles Chargers, helping his side to a 27-20 win at Tennessee. The eighth-year veteran punted four times for 208 yards and is currently on pace to finish the year with the best yards-per-punt mark of his career, averaging 50.4 yards per kick for the season.
