Former LSU standout Patrick Queen has been recognized as the AFC’s Defensive Player of the Week for Week 5. Queen had an impressive outing going up against a Cincinnati Bengals offensive led by his former Tigers teammate Joe Burrow.
Queen’s first big highlight of Sunday in the second quarter came when he sacked Burrow, forcing a fumble and recovering for the Baltimore Ravens defense. Later, in the fourth quarter, Queen scored his first career touchdown recovering a fumble forced by defensive back Marlon Humphrey, returning 53 yards for six points. Humphrey is already campaigning on social media for his teammate to win Defensive Rookie of the Year.
