The Arizona Cardinals did not have a player earn conference player of the week honors for Week 16, and that was not expected. And while three different players have earned played of the week honors for their play against the Cardinals, that did not happen this week, either.
However, the NFC West was represented as Los Angeles Rams rookie receiver Puka Nacua earned Week 16 honors for the NFC on offense.
He caught nine passes for 164 yards in the Rams’ 30-22 win over the New Orleans Saints.
All the conference players of the week for both the AFC and NFC are below.
NFC Offensive Player of the Week: Rams WR Puka Nacua
NFC Defensive Player of the Week: Lions S Ifeatu Melifonwu
NFC Special Teams Player of the Week: Falcons K Younghoe Koo
AFC Offensive Player of the Week: Browns WR Amari Cooper
AFC Defensive Player of the Week: Ravens S Kyle Hamilton
AFC Special Teams Player of the Week: Dolphins K Jason Sanders
