    SEATTLE SEAHAWKS AT MIAMI DOLPHINS HARD ROCK STADIUM OCT. 4, 2020 | 1 PM POSTGAME NOTES PARKER MOVES INTO NINTH PLACE IN ALL- TIME RECEIVING YARDS • WR DeVante Parker posted his first 100-yard game of the season today, totaling 10 receptions for 110 yards (11.0 avg.). It’s the ninth 100-yard game of Parker’s career, which is tied for eighth in Dolphins history. • Parker finished today’s game with 259 career receptions for 3,698 yards (14.3 avg.). His 3,698 yards move him past RB Tony Nathan (3,592) for ninth place in team history in all-time receiving yards. Parker is 340 yards shy of WR Jarvis Landry (4,038) for eighth place. • Parker’s 10 receptions were a career high. The last Dolphins player to catch 10+ passes in a game was Landry (10) on Dec. 17, 2017 at Buffalo. • Parker recorded the 250th reception of his career in the first quarter of today’s game. • At the end of today’s 1 p.m. games, Parker led all NFL players with 1,280 receiving yards dating back to Week 7 of the 2019 season, which encompasses 16 games. If those 16 games were its own season, Parker’s 1,280 receiving yards would be the fourth-best mark in a single season in Dolphins history. HOWARD TAKES NFL LEAD IN INTERCEPTIONS SINCE DECEMBER 2017 • CB Xavien Howard picked off Seahawks QB Russell Wilson in the end zone with 5:04 remaining in the third quarter. It was Howard’s second interception of the season after he had one last week at Jacksonville.

To make your day, take yellow Elegante sheets by Stevens. Put them on your bed. Fold in a saffron Forstmann" thermal blan- ket. Then add Four Seasons towels. Mix well. Stevens serves these patterns in a wide range of colors. With softness in the blan- kets. Smoothness in the sheets. And loftiness in the towels. You'll like the way Stevens cheers up your bedroom. Your bath. And your day. J. R Stevens 85 Co., Inc. 1460 Broadway, N.
