That's great stuff. I'd guess he was dinged up for the long while before getting so many carries last week.

He's pretty great. Hope it continues.

I like Rocco running downfield in case he needs a block. Not as fast as Sama by any means, but he kept pace for a little while.

He actually DID block for him on his other TD. Noel was engaged with a DB and Rocco helped continue the block.

Was at the game, as soon as he got the edge I knew he was gone. Dudes got some serious top end speed, will be exciting to watch for the next couple years.
