There were no lack of splash plays for UConn products in week 3 of the NFL season as Tyvon Branch hit the double-digit number in tackles for the Oakland Raiders, Robert McClain and Dwayne Gratz had seven tackles each, Darius Butler recovered a fumble, Kendall Reyes had a sack and Danny Lansanah returned an interception 27 yards for a touchdown. On the other side of the ball, Donald Brown had career-high 36 offensive touches but there was some bad news to report as Branch suffered what Raiders coach Dennis Allen feared was a fractured foot and Marcus Easley left the San Diego game with a knee injury.
