"He broke free for a pair of electrifying runs, including the decisive touchdown late in the fourth quarter where he had enough space to shoot a look over to the sideline before scampering in for a 69-yard score. Whether it was picking up a first down on a third-down toss play, or bursting straight up the middle and winning a footrace to the endzone, Henderson's speed was a factor in this game."
"Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said earlier in the week that Williams would likely be in for a bigger role with Boutte injured. Williams was ready when his number was called. His only catch of the day was a big one - raced 72-yards for a touchdown after catching a play-action pass from Maye. It was Williams's first catch since the Week 3 loss to Pittsburgh. He turned on the jets, showing the big-play ability that the Patriots saw in him."
The Patriots defeated Tampa Bay 28-23 on the road, extending their win streak to seven games. Rookies TreVeyon Henderson and Kyle Williams provided explosive scoring plays that swung momentum. Henderson produced the first multi-touchdown and first 100-yard game of his career, including a decisive 69-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. Williams stepped into a larger role with Kayshon Boutte injured and answered with a 72-yard touchdown reception. Drake Maye delivered timely big plays while Baker Mayfield was more efficient overall. Elijah Ponder recorded his first career sack, and the team made enough plays to escape a close game despite coverage issues.
