We’re three games into the 2020 NFL season and four members of the Buffalo Bills have already appeared on Pro Football Focus’ Team of the Week honors so far.
In Week 3, the Bills doubled up with one player on offense and another on defense making the squad. On offense, new right tackle Daryl Williams cracked the roster while on defense, cornerback Levi Wallace found his name being recognized.
In Week 3, Williams had a massively huge game for the Bills, according to PFF. Entering the meeting with the Rams, Williams had an overall PFF grade of 71.2, which is pretty solid in its own right. That has since jolted up to 79.8, good for the 12th best tackle grade in the NFL per PFF’s grading system this year.
Wallace actually might be the more surprising one to appear here because Buffalo’s defense didn’t preform well against the Rams in Week 3. But if there was one bright spot on the day, it was Wallace. He had an interception on Rams quarterback Jared Goff and actually did not lead the Bills in tackles in this one.
For a cornerback, that’s a good sign. In Week 2, the Dolphins appeared to be picking on Wallace and he led Buffalo’s defense in tackles a week prior. More tackles indicates the ball is being throw to you much more in most cases.
Through three games this season, Wallace also is graded as Buffalo’s best cornerback per PFF as well at a 68.4 mark. Tre’Davious White currently sits at 64.7.
Williams and Johnson join Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs (Week 2) and safety Jordan Poyer (Week 1) in being named to PFF’s Team of the Week so far this season.
