Oct 31, 2018 at 08:00 AM

Stop us if you've heard this one before: Phillip Lindsay has been nominated for Rookie of the Week.

Lindsay earned his third nomination of the season after his game against the Chiefs, during which he totaled 112 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown. He had 95 rushing yards and 17 receiving yards. He also was nominated after Weeks 1 and 2 for his games against the Seahawks and Raiders, respectively.

This is the fifth time a Bronco has been up for the weekly award in 2018 — outside linebacker Bradley Chubb has also been nominated twice.

Lindsay is up against Bengals safety Jessie Bates, Colts linebacker Darius Leonard, Saints defensive end Marcus Davenport and Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen for this week's award.
