DB Corey Lynch (San Diego Chargers) picked off New York Jets quarterback Greg McElroy in the Chargers' 27-17 win over the Jets in East Rutherford, N.J. Lynch returned his second-career interception 34 yards.

RB Travaris Cadet (New Orleans Saints) notched an 18-yard kickoff return and a special-teams tackle in the Saints' 34-31 overtime win over the Dallas Cowboys.

WR Armanti Edwards (Carolina Panthers) saw time in a reserve role but did not record any statistics out side of fair-catching a punt in the Panthers' 17-6 win over the Oakland Raiders.

WR Brian Quick (St. Louis Rams) was targeted once but did not make a catch in the Rams' 28-13 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

OL Dan Kilgore (San Francisco 49ers) saw time as the 49ers top reserve offensive lineman and received nationally televised praise from NBC analyst Cris Collinsworth for a key block during San Francisco's 42-13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night.

DE Jason Hunter (Denver Broncos) and LB D.J. Smith (Green Bay Packers) remain on their respective teams' injured reserve lists after suffering season-ending injuries.
