We are now one-fourth of the way through the NFL season, and once again it was another big week for former Alabama players in Week 4. This was one of the toughest weeks so far in narrowing down the list to just five standouts.
We have a couple players popping up on our list for the first time this season, as well as some who are becoming regulars on the list.
There was also an Alabama player snapping a 600+ day drought. With that being said, here are five former Alabama player standouts from Week 4 of the NFL season.
Bryce Young, Quarterback - Carolina Panthers
Bryce Young continues to be one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL so far this season, and continued that in Week 4 with another big performance. In a 32-26 win over the Detroit Lions, Young was 29-of-41 passing for 329 yards and two
touchdowns. Young was one-of-three quarterbacks across the league this week with 300+ passing yards and multiple passing touchdowns. For the season, Young leads the NFL in passing yards with 1,268.
Brian Robinson Jr., Running Back - Atlanta Falcons
In a dominant 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night, Brian Robinson Jr. made a habit of finding the end zone for the Falcons. He ended the night with 14 carries, 62 yards, and three touchdowns. His touchdown runs featured numerous broken tackles. Robinson was one of just two players in the league this week with three rushing touchdowns.
Dallas Turner, Outside Linebacker - Minnesota Vikings
Our first of two Vikings players being highlighted this week, Turner played a big role in the Vikings defense handling the Dolphins in a 15-10 win. Turner finished the game with three tackles, two sacks, and a forced fumble (on a strip-sack). Turner was one of just three players in the NFL this week with multiple sacks. The Vikings defense held the Dolphins to just 198 yards of offense. Turner is now second in the league in sacks this season with 5.5 through four games.
Minkah Fitzpatrick, Safety - New York Jets
Minkah Fitzpatrick had a big day for the Jets, even in defeat as they fell to the Bears, 23-12. He finished with a whopping 16 tackles (second-most in the league this week) and an interception. Eight of his tackles were solo stops. Fitzpatrick's interception was the Jets defense's first interception since the 2024 season, snapping a drought of over 600 days.
Will Reichard, Kicker - Minnesota Vikings
Will Reichard had another big week as he scored every single point for the now 4-0 Vikings in their 15-10 Week 4 win over the Dolphins. Reichard went five-for-five on field goals with a long of 50 yards. His makes were from 50, 47, 41, 33, and 29 yards. Reichard currently leads the league in made field goals this season, and is still perfect on them at 12-for-12 for the year.
