Quarterback Marcus Mariota of the Tennessee Titans, safety Eric Berry of the Kansas City Chiefs and safety Justin Simmons of the Denver Broncos are the AFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for games played the 10th week of the 2016 season (November 10, 13-14).
Mariota completed 19-of-26 for 295 yards and four touchdowns, with no interceptions, and a passer rating of 149.8 in the team's 47-25 win over Green Bay. He was 10-for-10 to start the game, for 196 yards and two touchdowns.
Berry had nine tackles (7 solo), two passes defensed, one tackle for loss and one interception returned for a touchdown in the Chiefs' 20-17 win over the Carolina Panthers. Berry's pick-six brought the Chiefs within three points in a game that they were down as many as 17. The interception was Berry's second of the season and the 12th of his career. It was his fourth career interception return for a touchdown.
Simmons hurdled over the snapper, jumped again and deflected Saints kicker Will Lutz's kick on Sunday. The ball bounced right to fellow rookie safety Will Parks, who returned the ball all the way to the Saints end zone for two points and a 25-23 win.
