Huskers in the NFL - Week 4

A total of 21 former Huskers saw action in Week 4 of the NFL season.

A pair of former Huskers helped Denver to a come-from-behind 26-20 road victory at Tennessee when running back Correll Buckhalter caught the eventual game-winning touchdown pass from quarterback Kyle Orton with 1:33 remaining. Buckhalter had five receptions for 38 yards in Orton's 341-yard passing performance, while Russ Hochstein saw action on the offensive line. 

Rookie defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh started his fourth game of the season for the Lions and tallied his third sack of the year while contributing three tackles in the 28-26 loss to the Packers. On the winning end, running back Brandon Jackson rushed nine times for 33 yards in his second start of the year.

Linebacker Scott Shanle had three tackles in the Saints' 16-14 home win over the Panthers, while offensive lineman Carl Nicks earned his fourth straight start. Fellow linebacker Stewart Bradley had the most tackles of any former Blackshirt, although his six-stop effort against Adam Carriker's Redskins was not enough to give the Eagles a win in the 17-12 loss.

Offensive guard Richie Incognito started his fourth game on the Miami line, while offensive tackle Lydon Murtha appeared in his first game of the year in the Dolphins' Monday night setback to the Patriots.
