McCaffrey gained seven yards from Juszczyk's late-game linebacker block.

McCaffrey benefited from Juszczyk's late-game blocking adjustment in Week 1; in the fourth quarter, Juszczyk inserted up the middle to block a linebacker for the first time all game, leading to a seven-yard gain for McCaffrey. This exemplified how Juszczyk's multiple insert points throughout the game forced the Rams to hesitate and block themselves.
