Josh Allen scored a rushing touchdown to lead the Buffalo Bills to a victory, while Tashaun Gipson recorded his first interception of the year to highlight former Cowboys in the NFL in Week 5.
Allen helped the Bills to their second win of the season, a 13-12 victory over the Tennessee Titans. After a Tennessee field goal gave the Titans a 12-10 advantage with just under five minutes to play, Allen led a drive into Titan territory to set up a 46-yard field goal by Stephen Hauschka as time expired to give the Bills the win. Allen also rushed for a touchdown in the victory.
Gipson continued his standout play in the Jacksonville secondary, as he picked off a pass from Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes in the second quarter for Mahomes’ first interception of the season. Gipson also racked up a pair of tackles and defended two passes. He ranks fourth on the Jaguars with 19 total tackles on the year.
Chase Roullier started at left guard and played every offensive snap for Washington on Monday night, while Mark Nzeocha made two tackles for the 49ers against the Cardinals on Sunday. Jacob Hollister (Patriots) and Eddie Yarbrough (Bills) also saw action for their respective teams Sunday.
