DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Alex Rogers, Drake
Sophomore | Defensive Back Racine, Wisconsin
Rogers posted four tackles for loss to help Drake’s defense post another lock-down performance in a 43-6 PFL win against Morehead State, Saturday. He finished with a game-high 16 tackles, including 11 solo tackles, and also had a pass breakup in the contest. That pass breakup helped halt Morehead State’s first drive and followed his first tackle for loss. Rogers also had a key tackle for loss with Morehead State looking a 3rd-and-Goal at the Drake 3-yard line that helped hold Morehead State out of the end zone.

SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Kierian Severa, Drake
Senior | Linebacker Lawrence, Kansas
Severa’s scoop and score of a blocked PAT turned all the momentum Drake’s way in a 43-6 PFL victory at Morehead State, Saturday. With Morehead State responding to Drake’s first touchdown with a touchdown of its own, the Bulldogs Nathan Clayberg blocked the PAT and Severa picked up the loose ball and returned it for a defensive PAT and a 9-6 Drake lead. It is the second time this season the Bulldogs defense has returned a PAT for a score. Severa also had eight tackles (four solo) and a half tackle for loss in his normal duties.
