Leonard Johnson Gets in the Stat Column
I know it isn't a huge deal, but glad to see LJ with a tackle assist in an NFL game. Is he getting in on nickle/dime packages? or is he running special teams? Any insight would be great.

His tackle came on a Buccaneers punt.
You're right, it's not that big deal, but in a way, an undrafted free agent rookie getting playing time in week 2 is kind of a big deal.

Yeah, I didn't want people jumping on me for posting an insignificant stat, but I am happy to see ISU players in the NFL stat sheet. It's pretty cool.

Is Tyrone McKenzie for the Vikings the one who played for Iowa State for a year? I got plenty of playing time.

Yes by way of Michigan State to Iowa State to South Florida.

TB secondary was torched. Maybe LJ will get a further look.

Isn't that essentially how Dobbins got his start in the NFL? Blew people up on special teams until he earned more playing time?

Similar situation for Hayworth Hicks in Indy. He's currently on their practice squad but the Colts O-line has been a hot mess and they've already lost three starters to injury. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the active roster sooner than later. Pretty cool for another UFA from Iowa State.
