Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season was marked by memorable and exciting finishes, with stars showing off across the league. FOX Sports lead NFL analyst Tom Brady names his latest 3 Stars of The Week, choosing players whose performances stood out to him the most.
This week, Brady selects:
* Jonathan Taylor, who had 29 carries for 218 yards and three rushing touchdowns in a 38-30 win over the Tennessee Titans. Brady praises Taylor’s impressive performance, saying, “He absolutely balled out. He ran for over 200 yards and three TDs. Dude’s a threat to score from anywhere on the field. He had two long TD runs in that game.”
* Justin Jefferson, who had 10 receptions for 144 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns in a 27-24 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Brady notes, “He was unstoppable on Sunday in Seattle. He went off. He had 10 catches. He had 144 yards. He had two touchdowns. He came up so clutch when it mattered the most. Sam Darnold looked his way on the game-winning score.”
* Chuba Hubbard, who had 25 carries for 152 yards and two rushing touchdowns, including a walk-off TD in overtime against the Arizona Cardinals. Brady comments, “He got rewarded with a contract extension early in the season — much deserved, and he has earned every penny. He rushed for over 150 yards with two touchdowns, including a walk-off TD in overtime against Arizona. Yeah, it’s been a tough year for Carolina, but Chuba has been outstanding.”
