Three Eagles made Pro Football Focus’s ACC Team of the Week. On offense, tight end Hunter Long and guard John Phillips featured, and defensively it was nose tackle TJ Rayam. Linebacker Rayshard Ashby was naturally the standout performer for the Hokies after flying all over the place and making big plays.
Hunter Long had a stellar performance. He caught 4 of his 6 targets for 53 yards. Of those six looks, he actually caught every ball deemed catchable. The uncatchable ones were the Kobay White errant throw, and an ugly forced toss by Anthony Brown that could have been picked off.
