Knights in the Pros Update: Week Eight

ORLANDO – For the third time this year, the NFL traveled to London for a matchup between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Denver Broncos. UCF Hall of Famer Latavius Murray played his second game in London this year, after making the trip as a member of the New Orleans Saints earlier this month.

With 1:24 left in the game, Murray scored what would be the game-winning touchdown for the Broncos, giving them a 21-17 lead. Murray finished the day with 14 carries for 46 yards, along with one reception for 13 yards.
 


Per @NFLResearch on Twitter, Murray made history on Sunday, as he became the first player to score a rushing touchdown for two different teams in London, during the same season.

Matt Prater made his return to the field for the Cardinals after missing the previous three games with an injured hip. He remained perfect on the year, going 2-for-2 on field goals, and 2-for-2 on extra points. Prater has now gone 8-for-8 on FGs, and 6-for-6 on PATs this season.

Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis had two receptions for 35 yards on Sunday Night Football against the Packers. Davis now averages 26.1 yards per reception, which is the highest in the league.

Former UCF standout Josh Sitton will be inducted into the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame in the 52nd Hall of Fame Induction ceremony, the organization announced earlier this week. Selected in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft, Sitton played eight seasons (2008-15) in Green Bay, starting 112 of 121 regular-season games and all 13 postseason contests in which he appeared.
 


During his time with the Packers, Sitton was named to the Pro Bowl three times (2012, '14-15) and earned second-team AP All-Pro honors three times (2013-15). Sitton was named the 2010 Offensive Lineman of the Year by the NFL Alumni Association and was selected as a Pro Bowl alternate in 2010, 2011 and 2013. He was a key member of teams that won a Super Bowl (XLV) and four division titles, finished with 10-plus wins six times and made the playoffs seven times.
