Week 10 of the TOTW program was released in Ultimate Team, and provided us with some great cards for some great players from this past week, as well as four players who have had great performances in the past.

Your 93 OVR Offensive and Defensive heroes are both from the Vikings, and provide us with two players who are near the top of their respective positions in MUT right now in Justin Jefferson and Patrick Peterson. Jefferson, coming off of a high level performance of 10 catches for 193 yards and a touchdown in a thrilling overtime game against a powerhouse of a team, the Buffalo Bills. Patrick Peterson aided in this victory as well, providing 3 tackles and 2 interceptions.

We also received three 93 OVR Limited Time items as well, those being Dion Dawkins, Jordan Hicks, and Record Breaker Justin Fields. Dawkins received this item due to his one touchdown reception in Week 10 of the 2018 NFL season, and Jordan Hicks received his item as a result of his 9 tackles and 1 interception in Week 10 of the 2019 season.

Coming off of a high-profile performance, rising star Justin Fields has broken multiple records. He received a Record-Breaker LTD item, stemming from him breaking the record of most rushing yards in a game by a QB (174), which was previously held by Madden Legend, Michael VIck. Additionally, Fields became the first player in NFL history to rush for 100 yards, rush for 2 touchdowns, and pass for 2 touchdowns in a single game, adding a historic performance to his young and upcoming resume.

Dawkins receives two custom ability buckets, which allows you to equip Fool Me Once (0 AP), Natural Talent (1 AP), or Post Up (1 AP) in his first slot, then Secure Protector (2 AP) in his second. Hicks also has two custom ability buckets, which allows you to equip Lurker (1 AP), Pick Artist (1 AP) or Tackle Supreme (1 AP) in his first slot, then Crusher (2 AP) in his second. Justin Fields gets two custom buckets as well, which allows for Evasive (1 AP), Fastbreak (1 AP), or Recuperation (0 AP) in the first, and Set Feet Lead (2 AP) in the second.

Also released was journeyman receiver Mike Wallace, and Buccaneers Legend Ronde Barber. Wallace, due to his game of 11 catches for 201 yards and 2 touchdowns in 2010, was given a 93 OVR champion card, and gets Deep Out Elite (2 AP), Matchup Nightmare (1 AP), Short In Elite (1 AP) in his first custom bucket, and Route Technician (3 AP) in his second bucket. Ronde Barber, coming from his performance of 9 tackles and a pick-six in 2009, received the other 93 OVR champion card, and receives two custom ability buckets; one with Bench Press (2 AP), Deep In Zone KO (2 AP) or Short Route KO (1 AP), and the other with Mid Zone KO (1 AP).

Moving past the high-profile cards, we also got 90 OVR Ceedee Lamb, 90 OVR Rudy Ford, 87 OVR Christian Watson, 87 OVR Alex Highsmith, 84 OVR James Conner, and 84 OVR Jack Sanborn. Below is their statlines and custom ability buckets, if available:
