Preview: Week 11 pits three former Cougars against each other when the Chiefs host the Cardinals on Sunday.
Sebastian Vollmer, RT, New England Patriots (7-2) - played and started at right tackle for an offense that threw for 350 yards without a sack, and ran for 103 yards. The Patriots defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers, 39-26, on Sunday Night Football.
Quarterback Tom Brady was asked about his offensive line and he responded: "The offensive line is, they're a veteran group. We've all been together so long. Logan [Mankin]'s added so much in terms of his toughness and his leadership. Matt [Light] and Sebastian [Vollmer] are great players, [Dan] Koppen mans that line and is responsible for so much up front. I love those guys, those are my boys, so I'm just proud of them. I'm proud of the way they compete, and they fight everyday and every day in practice too. They've got a great coach too so it's a great group."
