Vols in the NFL Week Three Recap

Week three of the NFL season saw a pair of Tennessee alumni set milestones and another have a career day.

In his NFL debut, fullback Jakob Johnson became the first player from NFL's International Pathway Program to make a 53-man roster after joining the New England Patriots. Johnson, who hails from Stuttgart Germany, played for six snaps in the 30-14 win over the Jets.

Offensively, Alvin Kamara had another standout performance, contributing 161 yards of total offense and a pair of touchdowns, one rushing and one catching, in the Saints' 33-27 win against the Seahawks.

In Dallas, Jason Witten grabbed three receptions for 54 yards in the Cowboys' 31-6 rout of the Dolphins. His outing was highlighted by a 33-yard reception in the first quarter.
