Question/Instruction: What was the contribution of quarterback Verlon Reed in the game against Nebraska?

Given material: The Arizona Rattlers cruised to a 59-23 win over the Nebraska Danger on Saturday night in Grand Island, Neb., to close the regular season with an 11-3 record.
In the meantime, the Rattlers unleashed quarterback Verlon Reed, who lost his job to Jeff Ziemba in the season opener after suffering a shoulder injury.
Reed replaced Ziemba in the second quarter and was instant offense.
On a fourth-and-1, Reed ran 25 yards for a touchdown. He finished with 77 yards and four touchdowns rushing, giving the Rattlers an extra running threat as it heads into next Saturday's 6 p.m., home Indoor Football League semifinal against the Sioux Falls Storm (11-3).
The Rattlers defeated the Storm in both regular-season meetings this year.
After returning from the injury, Reed backed up Ziemba the rest of the regular season.
Against Nebraska, running back Darrell Monroe ran for 88 yards and three TDs for the Rattlers, who have the league's top running game.
Linebacker Davontae Merriweather had two interceptions and defensive end Josh Gordon two sacks.
Jamal Miles returned a missed field goal 58 yards for a Rattlers TD.
Where: Elhusen Arena, Grand Island, Neb.
Update: The Rattlers (10-3) are coming off their third bye week of the season after losing two of their last three games to the Iowa Barnstormers. All three of their losses were to Iowa. If the Rattlers finish in a three-way tie for first, they would be the No. 2 seed and host the Sioux Falls Storm next week in the semifinals. Iowa would play host to the Danger (4-9). The Rattlers are 5-0 against the Danger, beating Nebraska three times last year, including the conference championship game that took them to the United Bowl.
