Impact Ashford had his best passing game of the campaign, setting a season high in passing yards while throwing for multiple scores for the first time in 10 games.

Claiborne's 12 carries were his fewest since Week 6, and he finished with the fourth most rushing yards on the team Saturday.

Ty Clark III - Scores in Week 13 Clark totaled seven rushes for 66 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 52-14 victory versus Delaware.

NOVEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE
Sterling Berkhalter - Finds paydirt in Week 13 Berkhalter gathered in 2 of 3 targets for 42 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 52-14 win against Delaware.

NOVEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE
Carlos Hernandez - Another huge game Hernandez reeled in 5 of 6 targets for 197 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 52-14 win versus Delaware.
