Week 4 of the NFL season is complete, and once again multiple former Arizona Wildcats stood out. Here's a look around the league at how UA alums performed.

Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Carolina Panthers

It felt like a matter of time before McMillan broke out for a big game and did he ever on Sunday Night Football.

McMillan had 16 receptions for 192 yards and two touchdowns in Carolina's 32-26 win over the Detroit Lions. The 192 receiving yards are a single game career high for the second-year receiver. McMillan topped that number three times while at Arizona, including a 304-yard game against New Mexico in the 2024 season opener.

McMillan's two touchdown catches were his first of 2026, putting an end to a quiet start to the season.

McMillan earned a 93.5 grade on Pro Football Focus, which is about as good as it gets.

To cap off a great night, T-Mac and ESPN's Scott Van Pelt traded Bear Downs on SportsCenter.

Tyler Loop, K, Baltimore Ravens

Arizona fans have long known that Loop has a big leg. It seems the rest of the NFL world is catching on after Loop delivered a career-best 64 yard field goal in the Ravens' 24-18 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Loop's field goal is the longest in Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium history.

Loop missed a 40-yarder late in the fourth quarter, but he should be in the good graces of Ravens fans for a little while.

Genesis Smith, S, Los Angeles Chargers

Smith has been one of the few standouts on a Chargers defense that has generally struggled through four weeks. On Sunday Smith earned a PFF grade of 67.9, the fourth-highest on the defense.

The Chargers dropped to 0-4 with a 30-23 loss to Seattle.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt, RB, Washington Commanders

Croskey-Merritt was held to 15 rushing yards on nine carries in Washington's 30-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in London. The second-year running back is averaging just 2.8 yards per carry this season.

Roy Lopez, DT, Arizona Cardinals

Lopez had another strong performance for the Cardinals, earning a 74.0 PFF grade in Arizona's 36-24 loss to the New York Giants.

Lopez had six tackles on the day including two tackles for loss. He's on pace for a 60-tackle season, which would be 16 more than his career high.

Jordan Morgan, OL, Green Bay Packers

It was a rough Sunday for Morgan, who posted a team-worst 41.2 PFF grade in the Packers' 17-14 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Morgan allowed three quarterback pressures, the most on the Green Bay offensive line.

Jacob Cowing, WR/ST, San Francisco 49ers

Cowing had one reception for two yards in the 49ers' 24-14 win over the Denver Broncos. Cowing appeared in 21 offensive snaps and eight special teams snaps.

Treydan Stukes, S, Las Vegas Raiders

Stukes returned to the field after missing last week with a concussion. He played all 60 defensive snaps in the Raiders' 30-27 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Stukes recorded a decent PFF grade of 61.9 but struggled on some coverage assignments.

Dalton Johnson, ST, Las Vegas Raiders

Johnson made his NFL debut Sunday for the Raiders, playing 12 snaps on special teams. Johnson was involved in the Raiders' kick return and kick coverage plays.

Ayden Garnes, ST, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Garnes also made his NFL debut Sunday, making an appearance on the Buccaneers' special teams unit.

Jonah Savaiinaea, OT, Miami Dolphins

Savaiinaea appeared in all 39 offensive snaps for the Dolphins, earning a 49.5 grade per PFF. Savaiinaea had one of the top pass blocking grades on the team but struggled in the rush block.

Miami fell to 0-4 with a 15-10 loss to Minnesota. More help should be coming to the Dolphins offense next season.

Nick Folk, K, Atlanta Falcons

Folk had a busy Monday night, trotting out onto the field six time to convert extra point attempts in Atlanta's 45-24 win over the New Orleans Saints. Folk also had one field goal of 29 yards.
