Several local teams picked up big wins in Week 7, and a handful of players put up impressive numbers in losing efforts, making this week’s RBC Heritage Player of the Week ballot another star-studded list.
Five 100-yard rushers (one of whom went over 200), two 100-yard receivers (and another who missed by just three yards), and a quarterback who put up big numbers on the ground and through the air are on the ballot, along with a defensive standout who helped deliver his team’s first win.
Check out the list of worthy candidates below and cast your ballot by 3 p.m. ET Thursday to have your say in crowning the RBC Heritage Player of the Week.
