The NFL season is now already a month old with Week 4 games in progress as this is being written.
The tremendous job that former Badgers Russell Wilson, Jonathan Taylor, Ryan Ramczyk, T.J. Watt and more have done thus far has been heavily documented.
Today ProFootballFocus continued to express love towards Wisconsin products that have become NFL stars when it released the three highest-graded players through the first three weeks of the NFL season.
Highest-graded players in the NFL:
1. Aaron Rodgers – 95.6
2. T.J. Watt – 93.8
3. Russell Wilson – 93.6 pic.twitter.com/svz6nbFEQL— PFF (@PFF) October 4, 2020
As seen above, and to nobody’s surprise, No. 2 and No. 3 on the list are T.J. Watt and Wilson, both players who have started the season playing at an All-Pro level.
First, Wilson’s stats thus far are numbers to marvel at: 3 games, 76.7 completion percentage, 925 yards, 14 touchdowns, 1 interception, 14 rushes, 90 rushing yards. That, remarkably, amounts to an average of 308 yards and 4.66 touchdowns per game.
That is what MVP football looks like.
Now to Watt, who has been putting up similar numbers from the defensive side of the football.
His stat line thus far? 3 games, 9 tackles, 8 solo tackles, 3.5 sacks, one interception, 2 passes defended and 2 run stuffs.
He and Wilson have cemented themselves as absolutely dominant forces in the game and, if their current performance is any indication, that doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon.
