New York Giants
The NFL rolled out its Week 2 nominees for the Pepsi® Zero Sugar NFL Rookie of the Week, and it’s a loaded group of young talent making early noise across the league.
Running backs Cam Skattebo (Giants) and Bhayshul Tuten (Jaguars) headline the list after strong showings in their backfields. Joining them are a pair of playmaking wideouts—Elic Ayomanor (Titans) and Tetairoa McMillan (Panthers)—as well as Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren and Philadelphia Eagles safety Andrew Mukuba.
Fans will ultimately decide the winner, with voting open now at NFL.com/rookies and on the NFL Mobile app through Thursday at 11:00 AM ET. The player who garners the most support will take home the Week 2 Rookie of the Week championship belt, with the official announcement coming later that same day on NFL.com.
This weekly recognition serves as the building block for bigger honors down the road. At season’s end, six finalists will be nominated for Pepsi® Zero Sugar NFL Rookie of the Year, with fan voting again determining the winner in January.
Pepsi’s partnership with the NFL continues to be one of the league’s longest-running activations, with this year marking the 25th season as the NFL’s official soft drink sponsor and the 24th year presenting the Rookie of the Week and Rookie of the Year awards.
