#ProBigRed: Huskers in the NFL - Week 7

Several Huskers made an impact in Week 7 of the 2019 NFL season.

Brett Maher made history for both the NFL and the Cowboys over the weekend. Maher connected on a 63-yard field goal before halftime, good for the longest made field goal in Cowboy history. With the make, Maher has now booted home three field goals of more than 60 yards, becoming the first player in NFL history to do so. Maher accounted for 13 points in the Cowboys' 37-10 victory over the Eagles, going a perfect three-for-three on field goals and four-for-four on extra points.

Nathan Gerry (Eagles) led the way for the Blackshirts, piling up 11 tackles on Sunday. He started at outside linebacker and played the entire game, while also appearing in 17 special team snaps.

Richie Incognito (Raiders) was the most productive Husker offensively on Sunday, helping the Raiders rack up 329 yards through the air and 155 yards on the ground against the Packers. Incognito started at left guard and played the entire game, while also seeing the field for four special team opportunities.
