DURHAM – Kansas City tight end Noah Gray caught the first touchdown pass of his career to assist the Chiefs to a 41-14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders to highlight 12 former Duke football players during the 10th week of play in the National Football League.
Gray, a rookie from Leominster, Mass., hauled in a pass from Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes on fourth down and goal to extend Kansas City's lead to two possessions.
Fellow league newcomers cornerback Michael Carter II (New York Jets) and cornerback Mark Gilbert (Detroit Lions) made impactful plays for the defenses of their respective teams. Carter recorded three tackles, a pass breakup and recovered a fumble, his second of the season. Gilbert forced a fumble and broke up a pass in addition to three tackles to aid Detriot to a tie against Pittsburgh.
Veteran offensive linemen Lucas Patrick and Laken Tomlinson also led their teams to wins over the weekend. Patrick started at center for Green Bay in its 17-0 win over Seattle, as the Packers now sit at 8-2 to lead the NFC North and match Arizona for the best record in the NFC. Tomlinson started at left guard and assisted the San Francisco 49ers to a 31-10 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Monday Night Football.
