DECEMBER 3 • Associated Press
Chavon Wright - Best performance of year in finale Wright had 30 carries for 185 yards and two touchdowns during Friday's 35-31 loss against Kent State.
Impact Wright was used as the workhorse rusher in a traditional committee backfield, and he benefited greatly, even in an eventual loss. The 5-foot-8 running back logged season-highs in every stat category, recording 30 rushes for 185 yards and two touchdowns. He'll close out his redshirt senior campaign with 196 rushing attempts for 875 yards and five touchdowns. He now appears to have used up all his remaining eligibility.

Jalen Macon - Scores two rushing TDs in finale Macon was 5-for-10 passing for 27 yards during Friday's 35-31 defeat to Kent State. He also had 17 rushes for 65 yards with two touchdowns.
Impact Macon was barely utilized on the passing front in the close loss to the Flashes, but he did total 65 yards on the ground and punched in two scores. The 6-foot-5 quarterback started the last three games of the season, so he should have a good shot at the QB1 role next season with former starter Josh Holst hitting the transfer portal. Macon will close out his redshirt junior season with 105 passing yards and one touchdown, along with 45 rushes for 216 yards and five touchdowns.

NOVEMBER 20 • Associated Press
Rickey Taylor Jr. - Logs first touchdown of season Taylor had three receptions (on four targets) for 53 yards and one touchdown during Tuesday's 35-19 defeat to Western Michigan.
Impact Taylor found the end zone for the first time this season against the Broncos, and he recorded his third straight game with three catches. The redshirt freshman receiver was dealing with an injury until Week 9, but his presence has brought a spark to the Huskies' passing attack. He'll look to finish the season strong next Friday versus Kent State.
NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
Brady Davidson - Fills in during fourth quarter Davidson was 5-for-8 passing for 73 yards and one touchdown during Tuesday's 35-19 loss to Western Michigan.
Impact Davidson did not get the starting nod in the loss to the Broncos, but he did come into the game in place of a struggling Jalen Macon during the fourth quarter. The freshman quarterback also played substantially better than Macon, throwing for 75 yards and a touchdown compared to Macon's five passing yards. It's likely the Huskies will keep Davidson under center for their season finale next Friday versus Kent State.
NOVEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Macon - Struggles in second straight start Macon completed 1 of 7 passes for five yards during Tuesday's 35-19 defeat to Western Michigan. He also had nine rushes for 31 yards.
Impact Macon got the starting nod for the Huskies in the home clash, but he struggled to get things going on the passing front. So much so that the redshirt junior quarterback got benched in the fourth quarter for position mate Brady Davidson. It's now unknown who NIU will roll with under center next Friday against Kent State, especially since Davidson played much better than Macon with less time.

Jalen Macon - Starting once again Macon will get the nod at QB for Northern Illinois once again in Week 12, per Skyler Kisellus of the Northern Star.
Impact Macon took over for Josh Holst, and in his first start last week against UMass, he tossed for 73 yards and a score on 3-of-4 passing while rushing for 98 yards and three touchdowns. He hardly needed to do anything as a passer as the Huskies' rolled a winless minutemen squad. The competition gets harder against Western Michigan in Week 12, but Macon has a grip on the starting role as of right now.
NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Chavon Wright - Records 86 rushing yards in blowout Wright logged 12 rushes for 86 yards and one touchdown during Wednesday's 45-3 win over Massachusetts.
Impact Wright led the Huskies' backfield in the blowout win over the Minutemen, topping 80 yards and being second to only quarterback Jalen Macon in rushing yards. The starting running back has seen volatile output this season, given the nature of Northern Illinois' rushing committee, but he has been their go-to guy in many instances. He'll aim to finish the season strong in a two-game home stretch, starting with a game against Western Michigan next Tuesday.
