What happened: Devaughn Vele, who already passed his 2025 full-season marks, pulled in a toe-tap reception during Sunday's regular-season matchup on NFL Network.

Why it matters: Selected 235th overall in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Utah, Vele has carved out a steady role during the 2026 regular season. His three touchdowns in 2026 already top his 13-game scoring output from the 2025 campaign.

By the numbers: Vele has recorded 32 catches for 324 yards and three touchdowns in 2026, surpassing his 2025 totals of 25 receptions, 293 yards and two touchdowns across 13 games (per ESPN reference data as of Sept. 29, 2026).

What to watch: Vele continues 2026 regular-season action as a possession and red-zone target.
