Wide Receviers: B+

Rookie wide receiver Curtis Samuel was ruled inactive prior to the game but both Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess stepped up in his absence. Benjamin led the team in yards with 104 and Funchess in receptions with seven.

The third-year wide receiver recorded his first multi-touchdown game of his career. After getting open for a late score in the first half, Funchess again found pay dirt on the second drive after halftime.

Russell Shepard also added a 13 yard reception on his one target of the game.
