New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre’Quan Smith was voted Pepsi’s NFL Rookie of the Week for his stellar play over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 18. Smith logged 157 yards and a touchdown after catching 10 of his 13 targets.
Smith overcame a loaded ballot featuring New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (who was named FedEx Ground Player of the Week), Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay, and two Baltimore Ravens: running back Gus Edwards and quarterback Lamar Jackson.
However, fans did not get a look at Smith in New Orleans’ big win against the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday Night Football.
