The special Tuesday night NFL game has been a busy night for SEC alumni. Former Ole Miss Wr A.J. Brown, back from injury, scored his first touchdown of the season. Former Georgia WR Isaiah McKenzie scored his first TD of the year on a creative red zone call by the Buffalo Bills. Derrick Henry has scored multiple touchdowns and had a nasty stiff arm on Josh Norman go viral. In the fourth quarter, fellow former Alabama running back TJ Yeldon got in on the action.
Yeldon caught a 22-yard laser from Bills QB Josh Allen for a touchdown. It was Yeldon’s first catch of the season.

Yeldon’s score kept the Bills in it – briefly. Since Yeldon’s TD reception, his first catch of the season, Derrick Henry answered with another touchdown of his own.
Yeldon hasn’t been much a factor for the Bills this season, but with the importance of pass-catching running backs in today’s NFL, plays like tonight’s TD catch could lead to getting him more involved.
