Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby is up for FedEx Air & Ground Player of the Week for the second time in three weeks, on this occasion for his two-touchdown effort against the New England Patriots at Wembley Stadium in London on Sunday.
Bigsby had the biggest game of his career in Week 7, rushing 26 times for 118 yards and the two scores during Jacksonville’s 32-16 win over New England.
Bigsby was previously considered for the honor following his Week 5 showing against the Indianapolis Colts, when he rushed for 101 yards and two touchdowns and caught one pass for 28 yards during Jacksonville’s first win of the season.
Amid his breakout second season in the NFL, Bigsby has rushed 67 times for 415 yards and four touchdowns, averaging 6.2 yards per carry, tied for second-most in the NFL among qualifying rushers.
Up for the award alongside Bigsby are Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and running back Jahmyr Gibbs, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley and Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon. Two players will be selected for the honor.
