Terrez Worthy - Scores again Saturday Worthy tallied 11 rushes for 35 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 3 of 4 targets for 13 yards during Saturday's 18-15 overtime win versus Florida Atlantic.

Impact Worthy scored another touchdown Saturday, a one-yard rush in the fourth quarter. It marked his fourth touchdown of the season, all of which have come in his last four games. Although he was out-carried and out-rushed by Antwain Littleton, his touchdown gave him another solid day.

Dante Wright - Excellent in return to field Wright (knee) caught 14 of 19 targets for 147 yards during Saturday's 18-15 overtime win against Florida Atlantic.

Impact Wright made his return to the field Saturday after suffering a knee injury in Week 8 versus Tulsa. Wright put up his best performance of the season in his return as he set season highs with 14 receptions, 19 targets and 147 yards. He was targeted on nearly half of Evan Simon's passing attempts and accounted for 67 percent of Simon's passing yards. Wright faces a pair of favorable matchups to end the season and given his high volume, is a very valuable asset for this final stretch of the season.

Evan Simon - Unproductive in OT win Simon was 24-for-41 passing for 218 yards during Saturday's 18-15 overtime victory against Florida Atlantic. He also had seven rushes for negative six yards.

Impact Simon failed to score a touchdown in his second straight game Saturday, but he did enough to earn his team the win in overtime. He threw for over 200 yards for the fifth time in his last six starts, however his lack of production in the last two games is somewhat concerning. He faces a pair of favorable matchups to end the season though, starting on Friday at UTSA.

CJ Campbell Jr. - Productive in OT loss Campbell compiled 20 rushes for 70 yards and two touchdowns and caught 6 of 8 targets for 57 yards during Saturday's 18-15 overtime defeat to Temple.

Impact Campbell had one of his best outings of the season Saturday as he gained over 100 yards for the fifth time this season and scored multiple touchdowns for the fourth time this season. One of his touchdowns tied the contest with just 34 seconds left in the game. Campbell faces a pair of favorable matchups to end the season, starting with Saturday's contest versus a Charlotte team that just allowed 425 yards and six touchdowns on the ground versus South Florida.

Tyriq Starks - Decent in relief effort Starks was 8-for-13 passing for 71 yards during Saturday's 18-15 overtime defeat against Temple. He also had six rushes for 14 yards.

Impact Starks was forced into the game during the second half of Saturday's contest after Karen Weisman (ankle) suffered an injury. Starks did not light up the stat sheet, but with his team down 15-7 with less than two minutes in the game, Starks led a game-tying drive to send the contest into overtime. Weisman's injury is considered a high ankle sprain, so there's a decent chance that Starks will start Saturday's game versus Charlotte.

Kasen Weisman - Leaves Saturday's game Weisman (ankle) left during the second half of Saturday's 18-15 overtime loss versus Temple, Brandyn Pokrass of The Palm Beach Post reports. Prior to his exit he completed 11 of 23...

Impact Weisman suffered a high ankle sprain in the second half of Saturday's game and was replaced by Tyriq Starks. Weisman's X-rays did not show a fracture, but the fact that it's being considered a high ankle sprain is not a good sign for Weisman with less than two weeks left in the season. If Weisman is indeed ruled out for Saturday's game versus Charlotte, Starks would likely get the start.
