Huskers in the NFL Update (Week 2)

A pair of former Husker defensive standouts were the story in this week's National Football League action.

New Orleans Saints rookie Keyuo Craver scored his first career NFL touchdown, returning a fumble 38 yards in the Saints' 35-20 win over Green Bay. He also made four tackles before leaving the game with a knee injury. Carolina Panther strong safety Mike Minter had two tackles, two pass breakups and returned an interception 40 yards to help Carolina to a 31-7 victory over Detroit.

Fellow Panther Mike Rucker also turned in an outstanding performance, making five tackles, including a pair of sacks for 34 yards and a forced fumble, as Carolina improved to 2-0 on the season. Rucker was one of two former Husker rush ends to record two sacks on Sunday, as St. Louis Rams defensive end Grant Wistrom had a pair of sacks in a 26-21 loss to the New York Giants.
