The NFL announced that wide receiver Jayden Reed has been nominated for the FedEx Air & Ground Player of the Week for his 171-yard, 2-TD performance in the Green Bay Packers' 34-29 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil.

The second-year receiver scored career-long receiving and rushing touchdowns of 70 and 30 yards, respectively, to go along with his 138 receiving and 33 rushing yards. According to Elias Sports (via Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com), Jayden Reed is the first Packers player to have a 70+ yard TD catch and 30+ yard TD run in the same game since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, and is the fifth player to ever accomplish it.
