NEW YORK, Nov. 23 (UPI) -- Kansas City Chiefs running back Larry Johnson is the AFC offensive Player of the Week for Week 11.
Sunday night, Johnson, a first-round draft pick by the Chiefs in 2003, gained 211 yards on a career-high 36 rushing attempts in a 45-17 rout of Houston. He is the Chiefs' No. 1 running back because of season-ending head and neck injuries to Priest Holmes, and broke Barry Word's single-game record of 200 yards set Oct. 14, 1990 at Detroit.
Johnson was joined in the AFC by Cleveland linebacker Andra Davis (defense), who made 14 tackles in the Browns' 22-0 shutout of the Miami Dolphins, and Baltimore kicker Matt Stover (special teams), who was 3-of-3 on three field goals, including a game-winner in overtime, in the Ravens' 16-13 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
