Pedro Santos - Nets from left-back Santos scored once on one shot during Saturday's 3-0 win over D.C. United.

Impact Santos is finally off the mark with his first goal in his ninth start of the season. The wing-back has scored 23 goals over the previous three seasons and was off to a truly slow start in 2022. Santos will hope to keep the goal-scoring going against New England next time out.

Impact Nagbe scored his second goal of the season matching his total from the last four seasons in the first eight matches. The midfielder may be 31, but he doesn't seem to be slowing down, and still gets up the pitch occasionally. Nagbe will be a risky play against New England next time out.
