CINCINNATI – Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce set a new career-high in receiving yards and Atlanta Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder led the Falcons to their sixth win of the season to highlight Week 13 of NFL action for former Bearcats.

Pierce hauled in three receptions for 100 yards and found the endzone for the first time this season in the Colts' tight 31-28 victory over the Tennessee Titans. He will now get his first game back in Cincinnati on Sunday. Tennessee wide receiver Chris Moore caught a pass for 12 yards and tight end Josh Whyle had a reception for 16 yards.

Ridder completed 12 passes for 121 yards and a touchdown as the Falcons took down the New York Jets, 13-8. The Falcons have now won back-to-back wins, giving them a one-game lead over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints in the NFC South. New York cornerback Sauce Gardner totaled four tackles (three solo).

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce brought in four passes for a game-high 81 yards against the Green Bay Packers. Travis had a season-high 20.25 yards per reception. Safety Bryan Cook totaled seven tackles, a season-high six solo, before unfortunately exiting the game with an ankle injury.

Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce captioned the front line for the Eagles as they accumulated 333 total yards against the San Francisco 49ers. Jason once again appeared in every offensive snap and is yet to miss a single offensive snap this season.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford caught three passes for 33 yards and a touchdown, while also carrying the ball nine times for 19 yards against the Los Angeles Rams, while offensive lineman James Hudson III saw snaps.
