Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson, Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing and Miami Dolphins kick returner Ted Ginn, Jr. have been selected as the AFC's top players for Week 8 of the NFL season. Cushing gained the defensive award after registering a team-high 10 tackles, one sack, a tackle for a loss, one interception and one pass defensed in the Texans' 31-10 win over Buffalo. His sack was the first solo sack of his career, while his interception in the fourth quarter ended Buffalo's final drive. Source: Statesman.com
