Against every defensive back

The season, game by game
Why it matters. Consistency matters to a team: one huge game and five quiet ones is a different season from six solid ones. Over 5 games, Trevon Baxter's best came in week 6 at Sacred Heart and his quietest in week 4 at Ohio.
Where he does his damage
