KC Concepcion scored his first touchdown of the season against the Saints: 6 targets, 4 catches, 85 yards and +6.1 expected points added (EPA), what a play is worth given down, distance and field position, plus a 3-yard carry.

It came down 9-6 with 5:33 left in the fourth quarter, on the first snap after Charlie Smyth's go-ahead field goal. First and 10 at the Cleveland 36, Shedeur Sanders went deep right and Concepcion took it 64 yards for the touchdown: +5.1 EPA and 34.7 points of win probability, the estimate of each side's chance to win.
