Drayden Dickmann - Paces Rice receivers in loss Dickmann posted four receptions (on five targets) for 61 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-21 loss versus Florida Atlantic.

Impact Dickmann recorded a season-high in yards Saturday, surpassing 50 yards for the first time this year. The sophomore has at least three receptions in every game so far, which is impressive in Rice's run-heavy offense.

Quinton Jackson - Records season-high in loss Jackson totaled 19 carries for 128 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-21 defeat versus Florida Atlantic.

Impact Jackson was impressive Saturday, recording a season-high in rush yards and his first 100-yard performance since Week 1. His 19 carries are also his most since the season opener as he continues to be the bell cow in Rice's backfield.

Chase Jenkins - Two total touchdowns in loss Jenkins completed 12 of 17 passes for 137 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-21 loss versus Florida Atlantic. He also had eight rushes for 20 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Despite the loss, Jenkins had one of his best performances of the season, recording his fourth rushing and passing touchdown. The Sophomore has now also thrown for over 100 yards two weeks in a row, as he failed to surpass that number during the first four games.

Asaad Waseem - Finds the end zone in win Waseem compiled three receptions (on four targets) for 89 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-21 win against Rice.

Impact Waseem recorded his fourth touchdown of the season Saturday, while also recording a season-high in yards. There's a lot of competition in the FAU wide receiver room, but Waseem continues to produce with how much the Owls pass the ball.

OCTOBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Easton Messer - Big performance in win Messer gathered in 11 of 15 targets for 110 yards during Saturday's 27-21 victory over Rice.

Impact Messer showed out this week, leading the Owls in both yards and receptions, recording his second straight 100-yard game. The Louisville native is averaging over 90 yards per game, but still only has one touchdown on the season.

OCTOBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jayshon Platt - Held in check against Rice Platt totaled two receptions (on three targets) for six yards during Saturday's 27-21 win over Rice.

Impact Following his 100-yard game last week, Platt was nonexistent Saturday, totaling a season-low in yards and receptions. His performance shouldn't be too concerning, as the junior is still one of the biggest weapons in FAU's offense and will look to bounce back next week.

OCTOBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Michael Kirch - Scores first two touchdowns of 2025 Kirch hauled in all four targets for 82 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 27-21 victory versus Rice.

Impact Kirch came into Saturday with only 28 yards on five receptions, before exploding for two touchdowns against Rice. If the senior can find a role in the FAU offense, he could be a threat in what is a very pass-heavy offense led by Caden Veltkamp.
