Geno Smith threw for 321 yards and three TDs, but a late fumble in scoring territory ended the Jets’ bid for the lead in a 31-24 loss to Detroit. Dylan Parham left with a knee injury; Darren Waller caught five passes for 51 yards in Carolina’s 21-18 loss to Cleveland.
Parham entered Week 3 as Pro Football Focus’ highest-graded guard through two weeks, with a 92.8 mark. Before PFF’s Week 3 review, he had a 47.1 overall grade and a 46.1 run-blocking grade. The Athletic’s Zach Rosenblatt reported that Parham was quickly ruled out with the knee injury; its severity was unknown at publication.
Waller drew a team-high eight targets from Carolina quarterback Bryce Young against Cleveland. He had scored twice against Atlanta in Week 2.
