Griffin Dorsey - Busy offensively in draw Dorsey had five shots (two on target), created four chances, sent in three crosses (one accurate), made two clearances and suffered two fouls during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Atl...
Impact Dorsey didn't have his usual defensive workload but the flip side of it was the room he had to go up the field and be involved in several dangerous plays, which included participating in both of his team's goals. The full-back is mostly known for his solid showings on the less glamourous side of the ball but more performances like this on the attacking end would definitely take his fantasy value to a whole new level.

Steve Clark - Allows two in return Clark (nose) made three saves and conceded two goals during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Atlanta.
Impact Clark returned to the net after missing three games and made some great saves, but definitely could've done better on the second goal he allowed as Xande Silva's finish he let go in was from an extremely tight angle. The goalkeeper, who was having a campaign full of ups and downs prior to his injury, will try to bounce back during Wednesday's home clash against Seattle.

Franco Escobar - Scores versus Atlanta Escobar scored a goal off his lone shot, made three tackles (all won) and two interceptions and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Atlanta.
Impact Escobar made his third consecutive start and not only had another productive performance on defense but also made a huge contribution on the attacking end by scoring his team's first goal with just five minutes into the game. The goal against his former team was the second of the year for the full-back, who looks like a lock to remain in the lineup for the upcoming games.
